Really? Huh.
- pmontra 10y agoReally, basically every server I see is either Ubuntu or Centos. Very few Debian. With containers is different, who packaged the container for a given service wins. Example: Elastic uses Debian for their docker images on docker hub. See also the results of this survey https://brashear.me/blog/2015/08/24/results-of-the-2015-slash-r-slash-linux-distribution-survey/ https://brashear.me/blog/2015/08/24/results-of-the-2015-slas... It begins to be old but this section is telling "Which Linux distribution do you primarily use on your server computers?" Distro #resp %resp prev year Ubuntu 633 34% 27% Debian 539 29% 31% CentOS 214 12% 15% ... Not a large poll but I didn't find anything better in a quick search on Google.
- pragmar 10y agoCentOS is in a tricky position with regard to ALPN/http2 support--there's absolutely nothing on the horizon. A continuing shift to Ubuntu in the webserver space is almost certain in the mid-term.
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoHow many companies are moving to ALPN/http2? AFAIK, they're still pretty fringe.
- ufo 10y agoDoesn't that poll contradict your "very few Debian" statement?
- pmontra 10y agoIn part yes, but I'm a developer so I'm probably seeing those new Ubuntus that made Ubuntu overtake Debian. If I were an op I'll probably have a more balanced view. Furthermore the sample is relatively small and my own sample is at least 100x smaller.
