Estável, seguro, suportado e gratuito

What do you like best about the product?
Nós sempre podemos encontrar drivers que suportam redhat. A Red Hat contribui com recursos de engenharia significativos para os principais projetos no ecossistema GNU o Linux Nunca tive nenhum problema Sinto-me muito confiante em selecionar o Red Hat Enterprise Linux em meus projetos, na minha opinião é uma das distribuições Linux mais estáveis ​​disponíveis no mercado , o suporte também é um ponto forte eles estão muito focados em resolver o problema no menor tempo possível, mas o ponto chave para selecionar o RHEL do Red Hat Enterprise Linux é a compatibilidade de suporte com outros fornecedores na área de Hardware e Software, isso é muito importante ter todas as soluções suportadas em um único projeto.
What do you dislike about the product?
Não há muito a desgostar sobre RedHat Na verdade, na minha experiência, o único treinamento para fornecer Red Hat Linux é o principal fornecedor e os revendedores Não há muito a não gostar sobre RedHat Nada que eu possa pensar, eu trabalho com esses dispositivos indiretamente e eles parecem ser mais confiável do que se eu estivesse usando um dispositivo Windows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Somos capazes de utilizar os servidores Linux em uma configuração de encaminhador universal em toda a nossa rede. Precisávamos de uma distribuição Linux estável para a empresa que poderíamos comprar suporte do fabricante há algum tempo, eu era adepto da distribuição Debian, mas eu tinha algum problema com drivers de HBA e suporte de armazenamento, resolvi esse problema quando adotei o Red Hat Enterprise. Linux RHEL para esses servidores, e eu realmente gostei de migrar do Debian para o Red Hat Enterprise Linux RHEL baseado na estabilidade, suporte de fabricantes de hardware e matriz de compatibilidade. A configuração foi incrivelmente fácil e a manutenção é relativamente simples
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Alguns mais empurrão para certificação RHEL seria ótimo A grande coisa é que você pode experimentá-lo antes de comprá-lo RHEL é geralmente para trás em versões do kernel e pacotes de software Você não ficará desapontado.

What do you like best about the product?
1 É um sistema operacional extremamente estável e executa muitos dos servidores em nossa empresa. O suporte é de alto nível.
What do you dislike about the product?
O RHEL atualmente tem um custo bastante grande, o que pode ser prejudicial para algumas pessoas. Não há uma edição padrão para o Red Hat. O Linux como o Windows e o HP Red Hat tendem a ficar para trás em termos de inovação comparado ao Oracle Solaris.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sistema operacional altamente recomendado Mantemos as coisas simples, portanto, qualquer problema geralmente é causado por bugs reais e, quando enviamos relatórios, o RH os corrige rapidamente. Sistema operacional altamente recomendado
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Na maioria dos casos, é uma solução muito melhor do que executar servidores baseados no Windows. Decida se você tem convidados suficientes para trabalhar com o licenciamento virtual ou se ad-hoc é melhor Decida se você tem convidados suficientes para trabalhar com o licenciamento virtual ou se o ad-hoc é melhor
