Honest question, what is that with former Oracle clients and SUSE LInux?
Did the Novell ownership make it similar/alternative to Oracle stuff? Or is it just that it was the first linux with a paid support option and those folks likely used it earlier because of this?
Asking for people that actually use openSUSE today, not other pundits with baseless hypothesis like myself :)
- yellowapple 6y agoSUSE is reasonably popular (it's to Europe as Red Hat is to the USA, if I understand right), and SLES is (like openSUSE) RPM-compatible, making it reasonably friendly to large enterprise software packages (like, say, Oracle DB). I'd expect most people using Oracle DB to be doing so on either SLES or RHEL (or some derivative of the latter, like Oracle Linux).
