Re: Oracle Enterprise Linux - Make your bets
Everything depends from provided support - this is the basic reason for existing of commersial Linux distributions. If distro is officially supported from Oracle and undet GPL this will be great.

Re: Oracle Enterprise Linux - Make your bets
I am long unhappy with Oracle's licensing, support and bruiser type attempts to collect money. I also think RH's license/support requirement is a violation of GNU.
I am likely to continue to use centos where I have the choice and legacy concerns make a move to Suse difficult.

Re: Oracle Enterprise Linux - Make your bets
RedHat and SuSE will do better and excel, they will innovate more and do good too.
Oracle vouching for its "Linux" offering by way of indemnification shows its commitment to support.

Re: Oracle Enterprise Linux - Make your bets
As for Red Hat and Suse they get their money from support and I do bot think this will affect them much ... no in the big account's erea, but for smaller shops this will help along distributions like Centos.
Also good support is not so ease to find, and who best then Oracles if you have a real big problem.. and can afford to pay ?
This also means that some with less money to spend will now be inclined to use Oracle instead of "free" competition "MySQL,PostgreSQL, DB2" and the more ground oracle cover where the profit are marginal, the better.
Only my 2 cent worth rumbling !
enjoy life.

Re: Oracle Enterprise Linux - Make your bets
Redhat will definitely lose some revenue from this move. My big question is if Oracle is going to add to the Open Source community or is it going to leech off other peoples work?
When it's all said and done, I think Linux will be strenghened by this.

Re: Oracle Enterprise Linux - Make your bets
This is a very good point. I assume that improvements will be added by oracle as was done in the RHEL kernel. But let's see...

Re: Oracle Enterprise Linux - Make your bets
This product was completly unsuccessful, and they remove immediatly.
Now they are trying again but now with a Linux platform.
Checkpoint is making a new firewall product with a customized Red Hat platform.
But i don't mind they going over the Open Source community.
I don't mind how money Microsoft give to Oracle for some advice for develop SQL Server 2005.
Oracle is more near Linux now (most of Oracle book using Linux platform example) but most far from Open Source.
This is only my opinion.
Bye!

Re: Oracle Enterprise Linux - Make your bets
If it is real free like debian and CentOS, I'll try it.
