Operation System Suggestion

Hi everyone,

Any suggestion if I will do new installation / deployment what OS would you prefer for rpm distro based (free).

Centos 8 (Hesitant due to EoL)
Centos Stream 8 (Hesitant due unstable distro)
Oracle Linux 8 (No Idea at all)

Regards,
Jay

Hello Jay,

If I’ll be in your shoes I’ll choose Oracle Linux 8.

HTH,

Why not consider Ubuntu Server?

Hello Viktor,

Jay have asked specifically about a RPM based distro so this is why Ubuntu has not been mentioned.
Other than that Ubuntu is a good choice as well for Axigen.

Thx,
Ioan
