This is just my two cents. I use Fedora on my laptop & desktop at home but I would never use it as a server. It is great product but it has a 6-month release cycle which means that you only get 1 year worth of patches before having to migrate. CentOS has 7 years worth of patches and it is the free version of RHEL since it is built off the RHEL source code (just without the RHEL branding). If it were me I would be pushing for CentOS not Fedora unless you are prepared for annual migrations or upgrades. Since your boss doesn't want to pay for RHEL (which can get expensive), CentOS is the perfect alternative.

Does there exist anywhere a list or comparison about which Releases of
Fedora correspond to what Releases of RHEL?
I would not directly compare those, as they are so much far in term of bundled versions.
My suggestion is to compare CentOS and RHEL.
My whole shop run home servers and we all use Fedora. We just need something from somewhere to convince him!
Thanks
