| - | The brand-new CentOS 7.6 operating system has been released a few days ago on Dec 3. It will serve as basis for CineSat software development in 2019, and RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.6 (or CentOS 7.6) will be the baseline for new customer systems in 2019. | ||
| - | |||
| - | For customers, the selection of their operating systems is just a matter of taste. Since 2014, __RedHat and the CentOS project__ work closely together and every CentOS release is completely built from RedHat source code. | ||

| - | Both systems provide frequent updates, the only relevant difference is support. | ||
| - | CineSat systems are usually being operated as black boxes on pre-configured servers, so end-users will need application support but not necessarily any support to the depths of the operating system, like special hardware drivers. Basic Linux system administration skills are sufficient to operate a pre-configured CineSat server. | ||
| - | |||
| - | __RedHat will be the preferred choice for new Dell servers__ which are being delivered with pre-installed operating system, because Dell support may require an operating system delivered and certified by Dell. In case of hardware repair and changed spare parts, RedHat support may be a significant advantage. | ||
| - | Otherwise, the difference does not matter from the CineSat application' | ||
