    Centos vs Fedora

    Hello,

    I have to reinstall my server and I hear a lot about CentOS ... What is the difference between Fedora and Centos (except that updates are less frequent Centos)?

    I look forward always a stable system consumes scarce resources.

    Thank you

    Fedora is more focused and personal use Centos use.
    Fedora is developed by Red Hat. This is not the case with Centos.
    Centos is similar to Red Hat Enterprise Linux distribution, except that technical support is not paid (license for updates in RHEL).

    Why would you move towards a distrib RedHat?

    Hi!

    I just hit a Centos and Fedora and also I found very little difference between these two systems Os.

    Fedora was developed by Redhat, but this is normal at Centos packages compiled from source Redhat voila a simple summary that I propose:

    * Fedora is less stable than Centos
    * Fedora has better support and a larger community (much assistance as possible)
    * Centos is more oriented work / server-like Redhat and the most common use of suspense Centos is .......... !............ .......... the SERVERS
    * The Doc is in English CentOS notice the fans --
    * The development cycle is longer Centos what justifies the stability of Centos -

    So in the end I will advise Centos for your server, but only if you can read the English; otherwise chosen Redhat. (Fedora is more office-oriented, easy, machine, machine)

    Here is hoping to have informed your screen ..

    Fedora is developed by redhat, development is entrusted to the community.

    Yes, actually I was wrong, RedHat Fedora fair sponsor.
    The development and support are provided by the community
