Best of 2019: Fedora for system administrators

<div><p>The end of the year is a perfect time to look back on some of the Magazine’s most popular articles of 2019. One of the Fedora operating systems’s many strong points is its wide array of tools for system administrators. As your skills progress, you’ll find that the Fedora OS has even more to offer. And because Linux is the sysadmin’s best friend, you’ll always be in good company. In 2019, there were quite a few articles about sysadmin tools our readers enjoyed. Here’s a sampling.</p>

<h2>Introducing Fedora CoreOS</h2>
<p>If you follow modern IT topics, you know that containers are a hot topic — and <a href="https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/containers-are-linux">containers mean Linux</a>. This summer brought the first preview release of <a href="https://getfedora.org/coreos/">Fedora CoreOS</a>. This new edition of Fedora can run containerized workloads. You can use it to deploy apps and services in a modern way.</p>

That way you can apply the right options to unit files you create for systemd.</p>
