    <h1>CentOS 7 Updates</h1>
    <p> The CentOS Project is happy to announce the availability of CentOS 7 (tag: 1503). This release includes a number of new features including a major update to IPA, which adds support for two-factor authentication. Other enhancements include the addition of OpenJDK 8, the return of Thunderbird, and improved container support.</p>
    <p> We're also expanding the availability of CentOS images across a number of vendors, providing official images for <a href="https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/B00O7WM7QW">Amazon</a>, Google, and more. For self-hosted cloud, we also provide a generic cloud-init enabled image. </p>
    <p>For more information about updates and improvements in CentOS 7, please check out the <a href="http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS7">release notes</a></p>
