A secure, stable Linux distribution for robust and stable services

We currently use this distribution to manage interface services between LIS and clinical analysis equipment, which has been very useful since it is a stable system with good performance that knows how to take advantage of the assigned resources to manage tasks. secure, stable and above all manageable operating system

PROS

What I like most about this distribution is how stable it can be once implemented. Also that it is very secure when it comes to data handling, vulnerability and unauthorized access, it is a distribution for server and business use

CONS

That it is a complex distribution as far as the user is concerned, it is not for users with little experience, but for advanced users of linux

Reason for choosing Red Hat Enterprise Linux

We needed a more stable distro that can balance the hardware resources allocated in a more efficient way.

Best Linux for Enterprise applications

It's easy to use and you will get every possible support. Overall the best OS for application development.

PROS

The support from the red hat enterprise is very good. The enterprise-level features offered by RED HAT ENTERPRISE LINUX makes it one of the best candidate for enterprise applications. The memory management is quite well and it is almost compatible with every major enterprise-level software available in the market.

CONS

The GUI and support can be improved. Different official customizable GUI should be available. Official RHEL Desktop (GUI) container should be made available.

Reason for choosing Red Hat Enterprise Linux

RHEL provides a dedicated support which helps you to configure and maintain the OS in the best way possible.

Redhat Enterprise Linux: A big name for Developing and Deploying Enterprise Servers

I realized very good performance when running client/server applications on top of RHEL using the Java platform. Even when the communication is secured using SSL/TLS, the concurrency support was really impressive compared to other Linux distributions such as Kali and Ubuntu.

PROS

I used Redhat Enterprise Linux for developing and deploying custom client/server applications using the Java Socket API. The main motive behind this development is to test the performance of SSL Sockets compared to normal Sockets using the Java Server Socket Extension API. We deployed the client and Server code on separtate Linux VMs and we managed the virtualization using the Vmware VSphere virtualization server. We realized a very good server concurrency of the JVM on RHEL compared to Kali and Ubuntu. This is the main advantange we depicted in RHEL that made it a very suitable enterprise platform for server-side code. The plan is to test with other programming languages for developing the server code such as in Python and C++ to see if we can generalize the performance enhancement compared to other Linux platforms.

CONS

RHEL is a bit laggy when loading a GUI desktop environment. Although this is not the duty of an Enterprise Server environment to provide sophisticated desktop services, we believe that this could enhance the user experience during the development and deployment phases of the enterprise application.

best for to remotely managing servers

I have been using Red Hat Enterprise Linux for about more than 2 years, and I have found it to be a very reliable and stable operating system. It has a wide range of features and options that make it a very flexible and customizable platform, and it is very easy to use. I have never had any major problems with it, and it has always been very responsive and stable. Overall, I am very happy with Red Hat Enterprise Linux and would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and stable operating system.

PROS

The most appealing aspect of Red Hat Enterprise Linux is its stability. With Red Hat Server, you get a 10-year support life cycle. This means you can deploy a server and not have to worry about upgrading it for a decade. This is a big selling point for businesses that want to avoid the hassle and expense of regular upgrades. Additionally, Red Hat Enterprise Linux is backed by a team of expert developers who are always working to improve the software and address any security issues that arise.

CONS

There were a few things that I didn't like about Red Hat Enterprise Linux. First, the documentation was not always clear. Second, I found the package management system to be confusing. Finally, I didn't like the way that the system handled updates and security patches.

A compact distro with all features

I am a long-time Red Hat user and I have tried several different Linux distros. There is something about RHEL that just feels right. It's less cluttered than other distros and offers more stability and reliability than any of the others. If you're looking for an enterprise class Linux distro, you can't go wrong with Red Hat Enterprise Linux!

PROS

I have been using this Linux distro for 2 years and I can't say that there's anything it doesn't do well. The installation is quick and straightforward and you know what you're getting with a Red Hat. Its always reliable, up to date & works on both my laptop and desktop without any additional configuration.

CONS

I recently switched to RHEL and couldn't be happier. I've been a Linux user for years now, and I was looking for something that would provide me with stability and flexibility. It's not perfect, but it's everything I need.

An honest review of a linux distro

As a longtime user and advocate of Linux, I would recommend Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) to anyone who asks. It's the best enterprise-grade operating system out there! I've used it in production environments for over 2 years, and it has never let me down. RHEL is the best in its class.

PROS

As a Linux enthusiast, Red Hat Enterprise Linux has been my favorite operating system for years. I love its reliability, improved security features, and how it gives me the tools to customize it to my liking. I've used many different distributions in the past, but none quite as impactful as this one!

CONS

I never felt bad for using this. So I can recommend it.

A stable distribution, with good performance and adapted to developers

It was very pleasant and a unique experience to be able to install, configure and prepare the development environment in this distribution. It was very fast to be able to do this deployment and especially the performance that the system has

RedHat Enterprise Linux: Versatile Platform for Deploying Network Servers

Great server deployment experience and performance with multi-threading and extensive probabilistic sketches and polling in IoT environments.

PROS

My main encounter with RedHat Enterprise Linux is when I worked on the development and deployment of a home automation server with IoT integration support. I used RHEL for managing the communication with the IoT gateway and in the statistical analysis of collected sensor data. I applied many probabilistic sketching techniques on top of it and with huge amounts of IoT data the server performed dramatically well even with several IoT polling mechanisms and multi-threaded server functions. Very smooth network configuration processes makes RHEL a perfect server platform that abstracts a lot of the Linux intricate configuration complexities. Highly recommend it for enterprise server deployments even on a large scale.

CONS

Many functions are still command-line based which makes dealing with it by Linux beginners a bit hard.

For security researcher this one is a good choice

PROS

I've been using Red Hat Enterprise Linux for years. I tried Ubuntu a couple of times and was always frustrated by the lack of support or stability. Now that Red Hat Enterprise Linux has joined the Open Source world, I'm cautiously optimistic this will change.

CONS

When it comes to open source operating systems, Red Hat Enterprise Linux is the best one. It has a long history of use and updates. You'll also never have to worry about your data being stored in proprietary formats.

Distribuzione enterprise storica ma tendente alla chiusura

PROS

Distribuzione molto solida, con una buona gestione delle risorse ed una velocità generale tutto sommato buona, sia per piccoli progetti che per architetture complesse

CONS

La tendenza ad eliminare applicazioni opensource per virare verso soluzioni proprietarie al fine di far pagare nuove licenze di uso non ci piace molto (vedi tomcat/jboss, portainer/docker, ansible). Le alternative sono comunque installabili ma non rientrano nei pacchetti che vengono patchati e aggiornati dal team redhat.
