Re: Arch Linux on servers?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]




I have run Redhat, Fedora and Arch servers. HAnds down arch wins for a server setup.

Change happens - always. Wigth Arch the changes are fed to me in small chunks - I get to deal with one change at a time (e.g. changing to systemd) Any given change might be smaller or larger but with Arch I can focus on dealing with that single change.

With non-rolling releases, every couple of years (or 6 - 9 months for Fedora) I have to do a fresh install containing all the changes.

Rolling release model is far superior - and as others have pointed out Arch stays close to upstream and you can keep your systems current which of course means fewer exploit opportunities for the bad guys.
