We are using Amazon Linux in my company, because it is part of the RPM based distributions that are "security approved" (we needed a recent officially built kernel). I always felt it was a weird monster, that works really well for containers, or applications that don't rely on lots of system libraries. You could quickly end up pulling some packages from both EPEL 6 and 7 (if you want clang for example)

I hope we can use the entire EPEL7 with this new version.
