Re: [gentoo-user] Fwd: How about the gentoo server or cluster in production environment?

Debian's powerful and stable, and I like apt very much. Gentoo and arch can be used for soho. Google uses red hat in datacenter with a customized kernel, and facebook started the project of open compute. are several RISC processors going to die?

This is true, but gentoo is a little unstable to use on production. The system must be on 365 days/year. ¿and when you need to update the system? This will use all the processor and the system will be overloaded. This means users can't use the system when this is updating... I think the best for a server is debian. I didn't try red hat but I see this like a commercial distro :/ Any way, red hat is very used as server. And if you choice to pay, you will have official support (Other wise, you are alone :/) P.D: I'm sorry if my english is not perfect, i speak spanish 2014-02-19 21:36 GMT-03:00 Franklin Wang <touch2...@gmail.com>: Maybe it's intresting, although I prefer to use red hat, suse or ubuntu in datacenter as Google. Slackware servers're not very poppular here On 2014年02月20日 08:14, Nilesh Govindrajan wrote: On 20 Feb 2014 05:12, "Franklin Wang" <touch2...@gmail.com> wrote: > > and what about slackware for server? > > > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: > How about the gentoo server or cluster in production environment? > Date: > Fri, 29 Nov 2013 09:41:28 +0800 > From: > Franklin Wang <touch2...@gmail.com> > To: > gentoo-ser...@lists.gentoo.org, gentoo-clus...@lists.gentoo.org > > > Hi all, > > I'm not familiar with gentoo server and cluster.

Security wise, there are no unwanted or unused stuff, so lesser bugs to deal with. Clustering, well, you can do that using glusterfs -- skype:touch21st, Gtalk:touch21st, Yahoo/MSN:franklinwan...@yahoo.com, Xing/Linkedin:Franklin Wang -- skype:touch21st, Gtalk:touch21st, Yahoo/MSN:franklinwan...@yahoo.com, Xing/Linkedin:Franklin Wang
