CERN is maintaining and deploying Scientific Linux CERN since 2004.

In January 2014 CentOS and Red Hat announced joining forces in order to provide common platform for open source community project needs.

CERN decided to see how CentOS 7 fits his needs and evaluate CentOS release 7 as their next version.

The evaluation ended in October and CERN decided to follow the CentOS route for his next version. We will describe the difference with SLC6,the CentOS community interaction and discuss about the building process we used to create agile services.
