Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)

It's stable

Has a support system

Feels trustworthy

More up to date kernel for hardware compatibility by default

Better visibility for which desktop environment is default and how to get others

Bring back the post RHEL source

It's very efficient, it's scalable, it ticks all the boxes really. I can't pick one thing out because it's such a good platform.

Not off the top of my head, no.

Virtualization, like the operating system level task. I see this product is very good and it blends very well with the middleware components like all the JBoss and other things. And other than that, either you install it or a virtual machine or physical servers, it works seamlessly anywhere. And if you want to go further, like Red Hat OpenShift or those things also work very nice with it.

I would say for me ease of use is very good. We don't find any much more challenges with the LINUX part. Only thing maybe when we go for appliances or network devices, right? Instead of using Enterprise Linux, we use CentOS or some other product. Probably if they can customize for network devices and all, maybe it's more they use other softwares. So that's the only thing I overall I don't have any specific feedback for Linux. Yeah, it's good. Nice.

I really love that Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) is reliable, that it always seems to work well.

It's very secure.

I really appreciate that Red Hat keeps everything up to date and they are on top of security, mobilities, et cetera. I'd say those are my favorite things.

Nothing immediately comes to mind. It generally works really well and I'm very happy with it. When they come out with new things, I'm always like, "oh, that's cool. I didn't think of that."

Ease of use

Ease of installation

Dependable

Yearly certificate renewal

Downloading updates

Lots of flexibility with what you want or dont want installed using it.

Support is very excellent with someone willing to chat or email you answers if you have questions

ability to adapt to different use cases and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) adding particular functionality that may be useful down the line to the OS.

More up front way of providing details on support for particular version of OS. If one has 2 years of support but a minor release has 6 years of support. let us know to upgrade if we want better support. or provide a way of showing when support ends on the server itself

Easier rollback methods when and update doesnt work properly

More support for legacy stuff like python 2 (backwards compatibility).

I'd say as far as security, having security built in and baked in from the start, I think Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) does really well. I think the packaging, the updating as well as just the Ansible integration in it all, just being able to leverage Ansible in a lot of ways with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) has been huge. The imaging process is fairly easy, so I just like it overall as far as it comes ready to be implemented, secured, and deployed to production in a lot of ways. As far as the built-in tools make it easier, and it's something I've been familiar with for a long time and something they've improved upon specifically has been Damon's system. CTL has been a huge help.

I'd say the more advanced security tooling features, but maybe that's because I don't leverage any of the GUI complimentary software suites. But really just being able to leverage FA policy aid A ID and SE Linux in a more intuitive way. Maybe that's just training. I think training is another thing that could be helpful. Just having the training subscriptions accessible for my team can be super helpful. Really the biggest gap we have, it's just making sure that people are trained on the technology we're leveraging.
