Many "large enterprises" have also selected
Windows as their server OS and Oracle for
their database...
After decades of replacing RHEL where possible
(and plenty agony where it wasn't possible)
I can not help but chuckle at the idea of even
considering the company that brought us 'yum'
for a virtualization platform.
- otterley 10y agoWhy did you replace RHEL? You scoff at it without any explanation whatsoever. (BTW they invented RPM, not yum, and they don't position yum as a virtualization platform to my knowledge. Citation, please?) For many of us, RHEL (or CentOS) is the only distribution we would consider running at scale because we feel they make better choices and have better policies and documentation than the competition.
