Oracle Linux vs. RHEL
Some months ago, Oracle announced new Linux Distribution: Oracle Unbreakable Linux. It should has been the main Linux platfor to support Oracle Database, but today only Dell support this operating system on its hardware, and IBM said “We are going to wait and see if
there is traction in the marketplace”.
Still today, IBM doesn’t support Oracle Linux, like HP, but they continue to support RedHat Enterprise Linux in theit products (hardware and software).
Antonio sent me this useful link on reuters.com. Now we have to see what can happen in near future, but I think Oracle has to reduce its investments in Unbreakable Linux and return to support strong and asserted solutions, like RedHat and Novell.
Everybody has to do only its own job…
