<div>I'm not sure what the difference
between "enterprise" and normal business/commercial use is. It's
really hard to define servers based on application space these
days, though, because of the cloud and virtualization. <br>
<br>
In the past, I think Ubuntu wasn't considered serious for
business, but they are very aggressively going after that sector
now. I've come to the conclusion that Redhat's relationship with
Centos is problematic. I get the distinct impression that there's
not a push to fine tune things to make it easy for end users.<br>
<br>
An example of what I'm talking about is SELinux. Nothing useful
on Centos works out of the box when you're running SELinux. You
have to tweak and modify things like crazy. The last server I set
up had about 100 custom SELinux rules. I've found that AppArmor
on Ubuntu is much more tenable.<br>
<br>
Just my take.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
