Hi Alessandro, if you must use AlmaLinux you can start from here: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.22_on_Fedora_23 https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.10_on_Centos_6.3_x86_64_en The real problem is to install dependencies. I suggest you create a personal VM and do many tests and trials
The Docker solution is to install a full debian inside a docker container and here install Koha. If your SysOps don't want Debian probably they don't like a solution like this. In fact a docker container is very similar to a VM. So AlmaLinux (a VM probably) with Docker runs a Docker container with Debian. A VM inside a VM in fact.
