Can we use Fedora for commercial use

ozar

Welcome to the forums!

If you mean can you use it on systems in a commercial environment... yes, you can. You might also want to look into and consider running Red Hat Enterprise Linux or CentOS, which are both related to Fedora, but are more commercial oriented in some ways.

I suppose these are paid software if we use commercially.

exactly speaking it'snot. well if you need support or updates then you have to pay themand buy subscription from redhat. but i tellyou if you are going commercial it's worth buying the subscription.

i still have the same answer. sorry i forget the spaces at times. in fedora or centos you get updates for free but you won't get support and these are cutting edge which sometimes are not stable and hence not for servers. [my opinion] but if you but redhat server or other commercial servers + subscription you get updates that are stable. the last decision is your's.

CentOS is exactly the same as Red Hat(they have the same source code), but without the Red Hat support and brand name. It is not cutting edge, by any means. It is a very stable distro and a great choice for servers, if you can't/won't pay for Red Hat support. Fedora on the other hand is by far the most advanced and bleeding OS in the world, as it starts many new projects of its own, that other distros include after 1 year usually. So Fedora is better to use on desktop and not super stable that servers require.
You can use CentOS for free in your enterprise, so you may as well try it out. Some other free popular server choices are Debian and Ubuntu
Debian is considered to be one of the most stable OSs. Ubuntu is probably the most popular desktop linux, and it has a server version as well.
You get it and it's updates for free and IF you want, you can get paid support from Canonical, which develops it.
