Overall, my experience with Oracle Linux has been positive. I have found it to be a fairly stable and reliable platform, which has made it a good choice for use in production environments. The platform has a wide range of features and options that make it customizable to meet the needs of different organizations, and it is generally well-documented. I have also found the Oracle support team to be responsive and helpful when I have needed assistance.

There are many things that I like about Oracle Linux, but some of my favorite features include the easy-to-use interface, the wide range of applications and tools that are available, and the fact that it is very stable and reliable. - It is supported by Oracle Corporation and offers a high level of security, stability, and performance.- Oracle Linux is easy to install and maintain, and it comes with a wide range of applications that can be used for various purposes.- It is highly customizable and can be easily adapted to meet the specific needs of a business or organization.- Oracle Linux provides a stable and reliable platform for running mission-critical applications.

There wasn't anything that I particularly disliked about Oracle Linux. I found it to be a very reliable and stable operating system.

We use Oracle Linux when it is part of a vendor's specification for their application, so we don't use it as much as regular Red Hat Linux, although it works pretty much exactly the same for management, updates, etc.

It is free to use and download (you must pay for support, of course). It is basically Red Hat enterprise Linux, and updates are available as soon as regular Red Hat updates are released. Support costs less than Red Hat. It comes somewhat pre-configured to run Oracle (e.g. users/groups, kernel settings, etc), so it's good to have for an Oracle database server. One neat little thing I particularly like is that it comes pre-configured for updates, so you don't have to guess and tweak your yum settings.

I honestly cannot think of anything bad to say about it. Sure, it's more complicated than Windows, but you know that getting into it, and the stability, performance, and efficiency you get in return more than makes up for it.

Well-developed Linux distribution. A lot of issues on virtualization software.

I enjoyed the pre-deployed Oracle database and drivers provided by Oracle on top of a free Virtual Machine that can run on their virtualization platform (VirtualBox). This simplifies a lot the intricate Oracle database configuration and makes the preconfigured VM a very suitable choice for beginners and students. The Linux kernel is very well-developed and supports the standard shell platforms (zsh, csh, bash, ksh, etc). I use Oracle Linux for deploying the servers at the business logic layer (Apache Tomcat) and at the data persistence layer (Oracle Database 12c). The container virtualization is very efficient and I always use it for testing client/server security protocols.

The operation of Oracle Linux on Virtual Box is so slow and suffers from many GUI glitches such as resolution changes between runs and frequent crashes. I believe this is an issue in Virtual Box though.

Good experience when using Oracle Linux for Server testing however the execution on top of virtualization software was not very appealing.

We used Oracle Linux to test with the preconfigured Oracle VMs using VirtualBox the Oracle's desktop virtualization software. It is nice to have Oracle software (mainly Oracle Database and SQL Developer) preinstalled and configured in the VMs. I usually do some updates on the VMs and share it with my students to have all the software ready for the course. I used Oracle Linux for running database servers (Oracle and MySQL) and Web Servers (Apache Tomcat). The performance was very good and the concurrency support was highly acceptable on commodity hardware.

Many issues when running the Oracle Linux VMs on top of Virtual Box made the experience a bit disappointing. The desktop system wasn't stable and changed resolutions frequently. It took us a lot of research to resolve it partially but it was hard to communicate those resolutions to students in a short period of time in a semester or so.

Using Oracle Linux has brightened alot of things especially in the aspects of virtualization and security in my systems..U highly recommend this software to any user for any of the above Characteristics

The security and stability level in Oracle Linux is do much outstanding in that you can trust your systems to run on it with no worries..I just do love Oracle Linux for it's nature of compatibility too..

I haven't found negative instances in Oracle so far...
