I personally prefer Ubuntu. I like RPM / YUM better than APT / DEB, but Ubuntu provides a far richer set of prebuilt packages, obviating the mess that is EPEL and most of the need to compile and package myself. Ubuntu's kernels are also far more current than those of the RHEL family. I've been forced in RHEL land to use elrepo-kernel kernels, but potentially with certain issues.
Stability is IMHO a factor of how you deploy, not of the distribution itself. Maintain local snapshots of the upstream package repositories, and deploy against those. That way all your systems have a consistent set of package revisions, which you control, vs whatever upstream has on a given day. ymmv. > On Sep 5, 2024, at 6:25 AM, Denis Polom <denispo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi guys, > > what distro would you prefer and why for the production Ceph?
