New guy here, just started as the Server administrator for a small company using JDE.
We are currently planning an upgrade to our current JDE environment which is mostly running on windows 2003 servers. As part of this change we are looking to move to a Linux operating system for most of our servers in order to receive better support from Oracle. We have two options here:
Red hat
Oracle Linux
The vendor we are working with is recommending using oracle as then all the support needed would be from oracle.
My question is, what do most companies/users in the comunity use?
I see the value in using oracle for all the support but if only 20% of all installs moving forward are Oracle, then im worried that there will be more support for red hat from both the the support teams and the community (more issues will be found by users using the OS thus more of our issues will have simple resolutions)
Thank you all for your input.
