Best distro for server.
by agalmethu35 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5N9SC)
Hey there, I know that there are several subject for this but every post answer is "use what your are comfortable with" "use what you know better" etc...
I use centos and debian on desktop and server without any exception and issue but today (same as years ago) I'm not able to define who is the best on server usage. I know that there are other like opensuse or ubuntu but I tried only this 2.
They are stable and secure, they use a specific package manager but for me there are not so much diff beetwen yum/dnf and apt-get/apt they works very well for me. Debian has newer package compared to centos and very great repo. Centos has selinux that works very well out of the box....
At the end centos and debian are very good distro for server purpose.
What is your experience with this 2 distro on server side and where one is better than other?
Have you leaved debian for centos or viceversa?
Why you choosed centos/debian/other for server side? What make your server distro better than other?
Thanks in advance
