Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
We use Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) for our entire SAP environment as well as every other Linux based system that is of any importance running production workloads. Support is the biggest business problem that using RHEL addresses. Me being an IT Engineer / Linux Admin means I'm one of the few responsible for managing our RHEL systems.
- 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
- Stability has been a positive impact
- Support has been superb
- Cost is on point
Red Hat Enterprise Linux is the goto Linux operating system compared to Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux when you need / want an RPM based operating system, no questions asked. Some applications only support Debian based operating systems which is disappointing, and thus Ubuntu is the best choice for those type of workloads.
