Oracle Linux is a very reliable and very secure operating system. It has the best security feature called Ksplice, and we can apply security patches without rebooting the server.

There aren't many things to dislike about it, except that Oracle Linux is only available in the Oracle cloud and not in the public cloud, so we can't use it in other cloud environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
