Line 38:
In a similar approach to [[Fedora CoreOS]], CBL-Mariner only has the basic packages needed to support and run containers. Common Linux tools are used to add packages and manage [[security update]]s. Updates are offered either as [[RPM Package Manager|RPM]] [[Package manager|packages]] or as complete [[disk images]] that can be deployed as needed. Using RPM allows adding custom packages to a base CBL-Mariner image to support additional features and services as needed. Notable features include an [[iptables]]-based [[Firewall (computing)|firewall]], support for [[digital signature|signed]] updates, and a [[Hardening (computing)|hardened]] [[Kernel (operating system)|kernel]].<ref name="IW" />
Microsoft released the operating system in 2020.<ref name="IW" /> Its [[source code]] is available on GitHub, mainly under the [[MIT License]], with some components under {{interlanguage link|Photon License|de|Photon OS}}, [[Apache License|Apache License v2]], [[GPLv2]], and [[LGPL 2|LGPLv2.1]].<ref name=":0" /> Building CBL-Mariner requires the [[Go (programming language)|Go]] [[programming language]], [[QEMU]] utilities, and [[RPM Package Manager|RPM]].<ref name="IW" />
