Overview of mainstream server operating systems

Windows Server Family

Advantages: Easy to operate (graphical interface, most operations can be done with mouse), software rich (the Windows platform has a large number of developers, the continuous development of software supporting the Windows System platform), powerful (service version of the system comes with a variety of features, such as ad Active Directory, various services FTP, IIS, etc.)

Disadvantages: High performance requirements (rich graphical interface, built-in many functions, software occupies a lot of performance), lack of stability (due to the system has too many functions, resulting in a variety of software compatibility problems, software anomalies, etc. to make the system blue screen, card death problems), operation inconvenience (due to the graphics of powerful, Causes many need to command operations processing transactions more inconvenient, with the command prompt implementation of limited functionality, etc.)

Applicability: For small and medium-sized enterprises, business less, security requirements are not too high, such as the company's OA system, the company's internal use of FTP file browsing services, etc.

Linux Editions

Advantages: Easy to manage (powerful shell command operation, can achieve almost any transaction), good stability (due to the system can be customized, can remove the performance of the graphical interface, and a lot of unnecessary software, only select the required features for installation and use, greatly reducing the compatibility between the various software, the risk of abnormal , ensure system stability), open source software is numerous, and powerful, excellent (such as Nginx, Apache, etc.), low cost (many software open source, only need to spend the learning cost)

Cons: Not easy to operate (due to the main command to complete a variety of tasks, resulting in high learning costs), the software is not rich (less developers, basically only to develop practical software, that is, to implement server functions of the software)

Applicability: Small and medium-sized enterprises can be used, especially for large business volume, security and stability requirements of high-enterprise, such as Web site.

Unix (AIX, Hp-unix, and Solaris)

Advantages: More stable than Linux, more convenient maintenance management (such as cluster function settings convenient, lower risk)

Disadvantage: the need for supporting the use of hardware equipment, the cost is extremely expensive,

Applicability: A trading system for the core business of a large enterprise, such as a bank, a securities company, a large payment industry company

Reasons to choose Linux as a learning direction

As opposed to Windows and UNIX, Linux as a learning object is a choice, that is guaranteed to be more stable than windows, and cheaper than UNIX, open, so learning Linux is a better choice.
