devtoolset is called gcc-toolset in RHEL8.
The following commands worked for me:
microdnf install -y gcc-toolset-12
scl enable gcc-toolset-12 bash
gcc --version
# gcc (GCC) 12.1.1 20220628 (Red Hat 12.1.1-3)

According to that article, you can check if you have access to Red Hat Software Collections (RHSCL) by running the following command by the root user:
$ su -
# subscription-manager repos --list | egrep rhscl
If you have, enable necessary software repo and then install devtoolset:
# subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms
# yum install devtoolset-8

There is an official way to install new gcc on rhel/centos, that will not disrupt original gcc that comes with the distribution. sudo yum install centos-release-scl-rh sudo yum install devtoolset-8-gcc-c++ and then run: scl enable devtoolset-8 bash This will run new bash session with a brand new gcc with the support of c++17 you can make it permanent system-wide, just create etc/profile.d/enable_devtoolset.sh #!/bin/bash source scl_source enable devtoolset-8 and reboot The way it works is that linking process will take all the symbols provided by original libstdc++ provided by the distro, and then link in statically missing parts that comes with new compiler.

r/CentOS on Reddit: What is the backwards comptability of devtoolsets between OS versions?
November 27, 2019 -
Hi,
The company I work for is developing a software package that is distributed to users. We made a linux port available last year and we're starting to run in to compatibility issues with different versions glibc/libstdc++, especially as we start moving to newer versions of gcc/g++. It seems like devtoolset will solve our problem, but I have a question about it which is this:
If we start using devtoolset-8 on centos 8, will our binaries work on centos 7?
If not, since devtoolset-8 is available on centos 7, can I use docker to build my distrutables on CentOS 7 with devtoolset-8 with the expectation that the automated tests will equally succceed on Centos 7?
Thanks for reading,
We're currently on ubuntu and we're looking to switch to centos 8.

Are you looking at building RPM packages? If so, the source used to build your package should be able to be built to do RHEL7 or RHEL8. That has been my tactic anyway.

Binaries built with dts tend to be forward compatible, but not necessarily backward compatible. You'll get better results if you build for 7.

To install the full tools-set including gfortran on centos 7:
yum install centos-release-scl
yum install devtoolset-8
scl enable devtoolset-8 -- bash
enable the tools:
source /opt/rh/devtoolset-8/enable
you may wish to put the command above in .bash_profile

devtoolset-8 was only released a short while ago. The linked installation instructions may be of use. However, your question pertains to CentOS, and this does not yet appear to have been made available yet. You can see some evidence of it being build for CentOS here, but it's not been updated for the final release yet.
You could ask on the SCL mailing list for an ETA, or wait until it appears in its final form. In the meantime, you could download the RPMs from koji directly.

On CentOS I can do yum install devtoolset-8 followed by scl enable devtoolset-8 bash so that my paths are setup to use GCC et al packaged with that development toolset.
Is there an equivalent in AlmaLinux?
