Vorlage:Infobox OS

Oracle Linux, formerly known as Oracle Enterprise Linux, is a Linux distribution based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), repackaged and freely distributed by Oracle, available under the GNU General Public License (GPL) since late 2006.[1]

Oracle Linux can be downloaded through Oracle's E-delivery service or from a variety of mirror sites, and can be deployed and distributed without cost.[2] Commercial technical support is available through Oracle's Oracle Linux Support program, which supports Oracle Linux, and existing RHEL or CentOS installations (i.e. without reinstallation[3]).[1] As of 2013, Oracle Linux has over 11,000 customers subscribed to the support program.[4]

RHEL compatibility

Oracle Corporation distributes Oracle Linux with two alternative kernels:

Oracle claims that the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel is compatible with RHEL, and that Oracle middleware and third-party RHEL-certified applications can install and run unchanged on the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel. For users requiring strict compatibility with Red Hat or for users running kernel modules dependent on specific kernel versions, the Red Hat Compatible Kernel offers 100% compatibility with Red Hat Enterprise Linux.[1]

Hardware compatibility

Oracle Linux is certified on servers from IBM,[8] Hewlett-Packard,[9] Dell,[10] Lenovo,[11] and Cisco.[12] In 2010, Force10 announced support for Oracle VM and Oracle Linux.[13] Oracle Linux is also available on Amazon EC2 as an Amazon Machine Image,[14] and on Microsoft Windows Azure as a VM Image.[15]

Oracle/Sun servers and blades with x86-64 processors can be configured to ship with Oracle Linux.[16]

Virtualization support

Under the Oracle Linux Support program, Oracle Linux supports KVM and Xen.[1]

Other Oracle products are only supported under the Xen-based Oracle VM.[17]

Deployment inside Oracle Corporation

Oracle Corporation uses Oracle Linux internally to lower IT costs. Oracle Linux is deployed on more than 42,000 servers by Oracle Global IT; the SaaS Oracle On Demand service, Oracle University, and Oracle's technology demo systems also run Oracle Linux.[1]

Software developers at Oracle develop Oracle Database, Fusion Middleware, Oracle Grid Engine, E-Business Suite and other components of Oracle Applications on Oracle Linux.[1]

Oracle Linux is used as the underlying operating system for the following appliances.[18]

Specific additions

Benchmark submissions

Sun Fire systems

In March 2012, Oracle submitted a TPC-C benchmark result using a Sun Fire server running Oracle Linux and Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel.[23] With 8 Intel Xeon processors running Oracle DB 11 R2, the system is able to handle over 5.06 million tpmC (New-Order transactions per minute while fulfilling TPC-C[24]). The server is the third fastest TPC-C non-clustered system and is the fastest x86-64 non-clustered system.[25][26]

Oracle also submitted a SPECjEnterprise2010 benchmark record using Oracle Linux and Oracle WebLogic Server, and achieved both a single node and an x86 world record result of 27,150 EjOPS (SPECjEnterprise Operation/second).[27]

Cisco UCS systems

Cisco submitted 2 TPC-C benchmark results that run Oracle Linux with the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel R2 on UCS systems.[28][29] The UCS systems rank fourth and eighth on the top TPC-C non-clustered list.[30]

Future SPARC version

In December 2010, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison announced that future versions of Oracle Linux will run on Oracle's SPARC and UltraSPARC T-series (Niagara) platforms.[31]

John Fowler, Executive Vice President Systems Oracle, in Openworld 2014 said Linux will be able to run on Sparc at some point.[32][33][34][35]

Software updates and version history

In March 2012, Oracle announced free software updates and errata for Oracle Linux on Oracle's public yum repositories.[36] In September 2013, Oracle announced that each month its free public yum servers handle 80 TB of data, and the switch to the Akamai content delivery network to handle the traffic growth.[37]
