Kutulutsidwa kwa kugawa kwa Rocky Linux 9.0 kunachitika, cholinga chake ndi kupanga kwaulere kwa RHEL komwe kungatenge m'malo mwa CentOS yachikale. Kutulutsidwa kumalembedwa kuti kokonzeka kukhazikitsidwa. Kugawaku ndikogwirizana kwathunthu ndi Red Hat Enterprise Linux ndipo kumatha kugwiritsidwa ntchito ngati m'malo mwa RHEL 9 ndi CentOS 9 Stream. Nthambi ya Rocky Linux 9 idzathandizidwa mpaka Meyi 31, 2032. Zithunzi za iso za Rocky Linux zakonzedwera x86_64, aarch64, ppc64le (POWER9) ndi s390x (IBM Z) zomangamanga. Kuphatikiza apo, zomanga zamoyo zimaperekedwa ndi GNOME, KDE ndi Xfce desktops, zosindikizidwa pamapangidwe a x86_64.
Monga momwe ziliri mu CentOS yachikale, zosintha zomwe zidapangidwa pamaphukusi a Rocky Linux zimatsika mpaka kuchotsa kulumikizidwa kwa mtundu wa Red Hat ndikuchotsa ma RHEL-enieni phukusi monga redhat-*, kasitomala-kasitomala komanso kusamuka kwa manejala *. Kufotokozera mwachidule kwa mndandanda wa kusintha kwa Rocky Linux 9 kungapezeke mu chilengezo cha RHEL 9. Pakati pa zosintha za Rocky Linux, tikhoza kuzindikira kuperekedwa kwa openldap-servers-2.4.59 phukusi mu malo osiyana a pluse. Malo osungira a NFV amapereka maphukusi opangira ma network, opangidwa ndi gulu la NFV (Network Functions Virtualization) SIG.
Rocky Linux 9 ndiyenso kutulutsidwa koyamba kumangidwa pogwiritsa ntchito makina omanga a Peridot, opangidwa ndi omwe amapanga projekitiyo ndikuthandizira zomanga zobwerezabwereza, kulola aliyense kudzipanganso pawokha mapaketi operekedwa ndi Rocky Linux ndikuwonetsetsa kuti alibe zosintha zobisika. Peridot itha kugwiritsidwanso ntchito ngati chida chosungira ndikumanga magawo amunthu kapena kusunga mafoloko olumikizana.
Ntchitoyi ikupangidwa motsogozedwa ndi Gregory Kurtzer, yemwe anayambitsa CentOS. Mofananamo, kuti apange zinthu zowonjezera zochokera ku Rocky Linux ndikuthandizira gulu la omwe akupanga kugawa uku, kampani yamalonda, Ctrl IQ, idapangidwa, yomwe inalandira ndalama zokwana madola 26 miliyoni. Kugawa kwa Rocky Linux palokha kwalonjezedwa kuti kupangidwa mosadalira kampani ya Ctrl IQ pansi pa kasamalidwe ka anthu. Makampani monga Google, Amazon Web Services, GitLab, MontaVista, 45Drives, OpenDrives ndi NAVER Cloud nawonso adalowa nawo ntchito yopititsa patsogolo ntchitoyo ndikupereka ndalama.
Kuphatikiza pa Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux (yopangidwa ndi CloudLinux, pamodzi ndi anthu ammudzi), VzLinux (yokonzedwa ndi Virtuozzo), Oracle Linux, SUSE Liberty Linux ndi EuroLinux imayikidwanso ngati njira zina za CentOS. Kuphatikiza apo, Red Hat yapangitsa kuti RHEL ipezeke kwaulere kuti atsegule mabungwe oyambira komanso malo omanga omwe ali ndi makina opitilira 16 kapena akuthupi.
