I don't think it matters much these days, all of the mainstream distros are going to provide more or less the same functionality.
IBM and Canonical will both sell you support contracts if that's something you need. If you're on AWS, consider Amazon Linux too, their paid support is quite good and covers the whole platform, not just the OS.
- acomjean 4y agoWe use red hat / CentOS on our compute cluster (academia/genetics). But I use the poorly names “PopOS”(an Ubuntu variant) on my local machine. I don’t notice any difference. Red hat will sell support and know how. A long time ago, when I was at a hpux and Solaris shop they sent us who worked with the Os to a Linux kernel internals class at red hat, for us to learn what they had for us (scheduling and such). Such knowledgeable people. I’ve moved onto different development but I can see why companies would pay for the support.
