Just because google does it, does not mean it's right. If you are going to make a suggestion, please make it an educated one. For example: I prefer RHEL because of it's mature GFS, and CMAN support which is Red Hat's implementation of global file system and cluster computing. Or you could even

Thanks for your help. The choice for HPC can be more free. I prepare to try it in datacenter, for FTP first, and then web server, mail server and so forth. Of course, I still think it's better to use rhel or suse for database, CRM and others. On 2014年02月20日 22:35, Andrew Savchenko wrote: Hi,

I think a more stable distro is better for production. My choice is debian. I think you cant find nothing more stable that debian... Gentoo makes the best server os because it's a custom built os where the admin knows each and every aspect of the os. This is true, but gentoo is a little unstable
