Can you predict which 1 is best linux Os
My personal views are Ubuntu for
desktop and Red Hat for servers.
1. Ubuntu
Like most
of you, Ubuntu is my 1 choice for desktop Linux. Ubuntu is the 1 in the Linux
desktop market and some use Ubuntu for the servers also. You will feel safety
in Ubantu. It is more secure. Ubuntu offers the following three editions.
- Ubuntu Desktop Edition
- Ubuntu Server Edition
- Ubuntu Notebook Remix

- Created by: Canonical Ltd., (who also provides commercial support, if you need it)
- Used As: Desktop and Server
- Latest Version: Ubuntu 9.04

Fedora is
sponsored by Red Hat. If you are interested in experimenting with the the
leading technologies, you should use fedora, as the release cycle is very short
and fedora tends to include the latest technology software/packages in it’s
distribution. It is hard to conclude which side of Fedora is more
popular to the Internet audience

3. CentOS
If your
organization does not want to spend money on purchasing Red Hat support, but
still want all the benefits of the red-hat distribution, this is obviously the
best choice, as this is totally based on the red-hat enterprise Linux.
As you can imagine the Nort American Enterprise Linux vendor mentioned in the quote below is Red Hat.

CentOS 2,
3, and 4 are built from publically available open source SRPMS provided by a
prominent North American Enterprise Linux vendor. CentOS is designed for people
who need an enterprise class OS.

4. Red Hat
This is
my favorite server distribution. If an organization doesn’t mind spending
dollars on purchasing the red-hat support, this is always my 1 recommendation
to any organization who runs mission critical applications.
On a side note, one of the reason I like Red Hat Linux for mission critical production application is that Red Hat tends to take some of the new features from Fedora, which is well tested by the community.
