Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Linux

We usually work in Oracle Linux. As [Oracle] DBA [experts] we recommend Oracle Linux to [customers] based on its flexibility and [ease] to [handling] Oracle Database on that platform. Performance of database is great on Oracle Linux in [comparison] with RHEL and AIX.
  • Easy to operate and install RPM[.]
  • Best performance.
  • Easy to use some administrative tools like Topas, Nmon , Sar utility.
  • Wide variety of [products] supported.
  • All RPM installation should be automated and no further human involvement.
  • Need more administrative tools in GUI.
  • ROI is very high in comparison with IBM and Solaris.
  • Support module is best via oracle Metalink.
  • Most of the blog and standard operating documents are free.
I selected because of - easy to use support - easily available documents and blogs - best return on investment - {the] best performance of enterprise [applications] like EBS, Oracle Database, fusion middleware, etc[.]
It's [the] best in industry support interface via MOS ( support.oracle.com). The support team is easily available [at] all timezone and easy to connect with them over call also.
