So we have started using the Rocky 8 image in Azure. So far it has been pretty good. A workflow to keep it updated for releases would be good.
One thing I also noticed is when you create a VM via the console, using the Official Rocky 8 image forces the creation of an NSG. This is not the case with Alma.
I suggest the next iterations leave such options up to the user, rather than force it.
