Rocky linux is a good replacement for CentOS systems if you want to stay with a 
RHEL based
OS and have a very stable system. It's based on RHEL, but doesn't have the 
issue that
CentOS stream does - where CentOS Stream follows the latest development code 
for RHEL, so
it's not as stable as CentOS 7.

If you want to upgrade it could be tricky getting from CentOS 7 -> Rocky 9.
