I've come across Red Hat allot lately and am wondering if I need to get studying. I'm an avid Ubuntu server user but don't want to get stuck only knowing one distro. What is the way to go if i want to know as much as I can for use in real world situations.

No certification and no support. Critical bug will be fixed faster in RHEL than Debian when come to Enterprise, very clear structure and powerful consultancy.

that is just corp talk for "it is not my problem"

I dont know ubuntu server, which i mostly use because of livepatch, with unattended upgrades seem to fare better than the rhel deploys that i have done - and the customer never updated. Granted the last is not enterprise but Uni bioinfo servers but still.

    Nah, it's not fully about corp talk. I also have some University use RHEL, well, I would argue, in university, some do use ubuntu because it easiness to install and maintain, welp... But selinux vs apparmor... better use selinux in EL than in Ubuntu... haha.... *most junior sysadmin fvk tup in Ubuntu when set it up... so In the end they just use... Well,, EL Clones :/

    But for research, I do agree, for NLP/ML, mostly I don't see any EL Clones deployed in labs, most Prof use Ubuntu and Nvidia drivers... Scientific linux is well known then centOS stream, just they still don't budge to move.. this is hard to crack question, I never know why no EL, but I guess because ubuntu nvidia prefered driver done its best, better than CentOS/Fedora
