Hello Yuvraj,
Many thanks a lot for your inputs .
just curious can i maintain my dev/test/staging as Centos and Production
website . So some people out there download those code and built it by
removing all the redhat logos and changing the background color from red to
blue ;) and yeah renamed it to CentOS . CentOS is backed by most of the
linux web hosting companies.
Redhat wont support Centos but you can easily migrate from CentOS to RHEL
and get support from redhat.
RHEL and Centos is binary compatible.
For Production Environment

Hello Yuvraj/all,
Many thanks a lot for your inputs .
just curious can i maintain my dev/test/staging as Centos and build everything
in centos
and move the binaries to RHEL os in Production .
How feasible is this choice and what are the risks i will face as both are
binary compatible .
what are the things i need to consider in moving forward
Thanks
Narendra
