CentOS certainly provides a less expensive alternative, but if that is the case, I'd just as soon use Debian. At work, on our official supported servers we widely deploy Red Hat Enterprise Linux. On some SQA departmental systems where we maintain them ourselves, we have also experimented with Debian servers with very good results. At home, I use Debian based systems for the majority of my work, whether desktops or servers, but I test all different systems in the Linux and BSD circles. Here, I'd take a Debian based system any day, but I frequently use Debian derived systems, not just plain Debian systems. |

IMHO, a Server solution should come with support. So something like Ubuntu Server (supported by Canonical), Red Hat Enterprise Linux (supported by Red Hat), or SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (Supported By Novell). CentOS is good for a development server (same goes with OpenSUSE), but other than than...I wouldn't recommend running your "bread and butter" on Slackware... Sorry Slackers! But I have to agree with the guy who signs my checks! ;) -C |
CentOS. I've had to pay th $1500 per server for support of RHEL and we finally dropped it and switched to CentOS. RH support was bad, very bad. Sure not worth paying for. But some management in the front office felt better if they had a company behind it. But this year instead of paying out over 100k we switched to CentOS. No issues at all. Wish I had got part of the cash that we saved them .... but it sure did not work out that way. :D
What can Slackware do that CentOS can't ....or better worded, why Slackware over CentOS? I've never run that OS and am curious. I do not want to start a flame war over it. TIA. |
I've actually seen quite a few Ubuntu servers popping up out in the cosmos, and have been wondering why people are choosing it in lieu of Debian. Would one such person have some words of inspiration?
