I use both Ubuntu 14.04 and OS X for development and our production servers are RHEL 6.6.
I've previously used Mint on the desktop and it was fine, but plain Ubuntu just seems to be the path of least resistance. On the RHEL servers my current frustration is the apparent dearth of recent JDKs in the officially-sanctioned Yum repos (at least if our system administrator is to be believed.) For this reason we're still stuck on Java 1.6. I guess that's the "enterprise" for you, though that's a bit of a misnomer at our scale. If I had my way we'd probably run Ubuntu (or at least Debian) on the server, mainly because I'm more familiar with it. ~Mike On Friday, 21 November 2014 18:34:24 UTC, Rodger wrote: > > Hello Everyone, > > As many of you know, I've done a lot of work with Oracle. > So typically on Linux, I run Oracle Redhat, the official OS for Oracle. > > Recently, I tried installing Redhat on a laptop.
