How SUSE Is Replacing Red Hat as the Linux and Open Source Enterprise Standard-Bearer - FOSS Force

Oh god, please replace it faster.
I am so tired of all the random shit that only RedHat does because RedHat had a minor issue with something that they blew completely out of the water and decided to fix by just making a brand new thing that only they use, and it's kinda compatible with whatever it replaced, but no, not in these hundred different specific ways that will definitely come up every time you need it to do something, but will work just long enough to make you think whatever you're doing might be feasible.
I would love to never look at RedHat again.
German-based SUSE just extended long-term support for Linux Enterprise 15 until July 2037. […] 13 years from now […] that’s […] 19 years after 2018, which is when Linux Enterprise 15 was first released.
pretty good
Not wanting to tangle with the 2038 problem yet though I see 🙂
I don't think it is going to really replace it. Companies are much more likely to move to Rocky Linux or Debian.
Suse has the best music though
Tired of these articles being reposted.
Redhat aren't going anywhere. And they contribute a huge amount of public source code still anyway.
I don't think people realise how much their own distros rely on Redhat developed projects..
The big barrier to entry is going to be Oracle.
A lot of companies have been making it a goal to move away from Oracle as a whole. The Java enterprise licensing thing from a few years back rubbed every company in the world the wrong way, their rep is permanently trashed.
The ongoing java licensing thing. They just changed their licensing terms to where you have to license every computer in your company if 1 computer needs java. And they are going around shaking down companies who are unknowingly using java.
Not even Microsoft at its peak Balmer bullshit heyday could come close to the hatred the entire industry has towards Oracle. They are and have always been the worst, and don't get me started on the sleazy sales reps. My comment is not to say that Oracle isn't shrinking or that they are a great company. My comment is to point out that many, if not most, enterprise level apps (I mean the big dinosaurs that run the unfancy stuff) can only be run on Oracle. Given that, RHEL and its clones remain entrenched because if you have one RHEL system, you will likely be stuck using RHEL for the rest. Now...if Oracle officially switches to SUSE as its preferred base OS, RH is fucked. Red Hat might never he as disliked as Oracle, but they are not the darling they once were.
I cannot speak for smaller firms because we only deal with enterprise level projects. What we have seen and continue to see is that if the demands of the project are light enough to run on the cloud, then the company will do that (Azure is kicking everyone's ass in sales BTW). Anyone else, which is the majority or pur clients (and they don't like hearing it) are stuck with Oracle. Sure, you can off-load a lot of functionality to other things, but for RDBMS you are stuck with the big red ⭕.
Totally wrong conclusion of the article. SUSE does not the same as what Red Hat did. It's only about the name of the project in SUSE. That's all. Its the same what Ubuntu does. You have no rights to use the name Ubuntu, if they don't allow it. SUSE wants to do the same. It's a name and trademark issue of a company.
Red Hat on the other hand, did something with the source code, so that people cannot use it easily or derive from it. That is a completely different and way more sinister issue than a trademark issue.
I can't read the article, its full of non topic stuff.

hmm
Conclusion does not mean reading the entire article. There is a title, an introductory, the first paragraphs and the end of the article. I tried to read more, but that is enough to have a conclusion of the article. I think i made that clear.
