Azure VM pre-configured with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10, featuring the latest versions of Podman, Buildah, Skopeo, and Cockpit, offering a secure, modern containerization and management environment.

Podman is a daemonless container engine that runs containers securely in rootless mode, providing Docker-compatible workflows while minimizing system risk.

Buildah enables efficient and secure image creation without requiring elevated privileges or a daemon, ideal for CI/CD pipelines and automated builds.

Skopeo allows inspection, signing, and transfer of container images across registries without needing a container runtime, supporting fast and secure image operations.

Cockpit is a web-based graphical interface that simplifies system administration, allowing you to manage containers, storage, and services through your browser. Access it via https://<your-vm-ip>:9090.

Note: To use the Cockpit web interface, you must open TCP port 9090 in your Azure VM's Network Security Group (NSG).

This image also includes key security packages such as SELinux (policycoreutils), auditd, and fapolicyd to enhance system security and compliance.

This lightweight and secure VM is ideal for:

• Container development and testing
• Edge and IoT workloads
• System administration via web UI
• Kubernetes and microservice environments
