More reliable how?  

 

>From the perspective of this application, I've not seen any reliability
issues related to the operating system, so I would be curious as to what is
more reliable specifically?

 

What functionality have you seen applied to this application on these other
operating systems.   From a discussion point, we should be providing
specifics if the community is to become educated on the differences, and
have meaningful dialogue that could lead to improvements in the application
overall.   And since this is a telecommunications system, hopefully features
that enhance the user or admin perspective of the product.   Keeping in mind
this is an Enterprise application, and not designed for home users, small
business, etc., if there are Enterprise type features that would benefit the
project, it would be good to discuss them in detail and decide as a
community what features should be embraced, and which ones are not
legitimately a reasonable expectation for this particular project.

 

Bare in mine, the majority of the work done on this product is done for its
commercial value by one or more companies with commercial releases of the
product, unless it provides that commercial value, it's unlikely to make it
into the build unless it is donated by a member of the user community.

Yes it's a purpose built application, but it can be extended with other
functionality on a single machine. 

Personal Experience: I used CentOS, Ubuntu Server and Debian, and have found
Ubuntu Server/Debian environments to be a bit more reliable.

Just a question here, as I don't understand the motivation for wanting it on
Ubuntu.   Since this is a purpose built application for telecommunications,
and it is generally run on it's own server platform without other
applications, like browser, firewall, etc., what it the motivation for
wanting it on Ubuntu?  Is it a different set of CLI commands that is more
familiar, are their some features on Ubunto that are not on Centos that
would benefit the telecommunications applications?

 

Really, I would like to understand what drives this so I can understand some
additional value adds that Ubuntu can provide to this server application
that might be missing today, and available with other versions of Linux.   I
understand Ubuntu can be installed and give you a rich Windoze type
environment for a workstation - but I'm wondering how any of that ties into
the telecom pieces of sipXecs and the practical application of it.

 

Lets discuss it in this usergroup.

I think someone really needs to determine if all the prerequisites are
easily attainable on Ubuntu before an attempt to package it can occur.

Since it is meant as a single purpose server, there is not a lot of focus on
"how many different platforms" it can run on...

 

I can't imagine anything being available on Centos/Red Hat which isn't
available on Ubuntu or Debian. In my experience, it's typically the other
way around. So I suspect it is possible. I'm rather new to the platform, but
I'm going to give this build a go in the coming weeks.
