Like Ubuntu, Fedora Linux follows a six-month development cycle for new releases, and Fedora 29 is here as the first release of the Linux-based operating system to deploy the recently introduced Fedora Modularity feature across all official flavors, including Workstation, Server, Atomic Host, Spins, Labs, Cloud, and ARM. Another exciting feature in the Fedora 29 release is the implementation of ZRAM support for the SWAP partition on both the ARMv7 and AArch64 (ARM64) images, which promises to boost the performance and reliability of the Linux-based operating system on single-board computers (SBCs) like the widely used Raspberry Pi.
