Hi all:
We are developing internal software using MySql dB and are planning to
use Fedora for the server.
Please don't do that. Fedora is awesome, but it's a desktop OS, not a
server OS. The life cycle is way to short and it's not hardened like a
server-focused distro. RHEL/CentOS would make a much better OS, and if
you needed something newer than it offers, check the EPEL repo.
The question is how do we know that this hardware (motherboard, CPU)
really support Fedora version 18 or 19? We are looking at mobo from Asus
or Intel or Gigabyte, but did not find firm answer. We did not find the
info from mobo websites either.
Most consumer mainboard manufacturers don't list Linux support. Another
reason to use server-grade hardware is that it is usually validated
against RHEL 6 (and thus CentOS 6 will work). You can get good
server-grade hardware for not too much more money.
The mobo that got our interest are the ones with H77 or Z77 or H87 chipsets.
Any particular reason?
You might want to look at Intel, if you really want this. Check their
"Server and Workstation" section, they are usually quite Linux friendly
and they make the chipset info readily available.
Is there any URL for me to get the information we need?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Rachma
