So they have a two pronged approach: 1. Encourage customers to adopt this kernel to run Oracle workloads. Saying it's the only "recommended" kernel for Oracle software helps greatly. Oh and it's 75% faster. "The Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel is now the only Linux kernel Oracle recommends for use with Oracle software." 2. Still "support" Red Hat's older kernel for other ISV workloads (really Red Hat is supporting it anyway). "Oracle Linux continues to include Oracle’s existing Red Hat Compatible Kernel. Customers can choose to run the Red Hat Compatible Kernel if they prefer strict Red Hat compatibility over a system optimized to run Oracle and other enterprise software." Unbreakable Linux didn't really present any huge advantages before. Now it does. Why wouldn't you choose it now? |
