Im studying to take my Oracle examinations later this yr.
I know Oracle has their own distro of linux - a red hat based one - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oracle_Enterprise_Linux
Question is: for people working with oracle in commercial environments - what flavor of linux is most commonly used - fedora, centOS, oracle unbreakable linux, other?

Currently the vast majority of Oracle on Linux shops are running it on RHEL. I run on CentOS myself to keep costs down. I don't need OS support. I don't need Oracle TAR support either. It works good for us. We are not a "production" shop either. You can use CentOS for your lab testing and the same things will run the same way on RHEL.“Government is a disease masquerading as its own cure.” -Robert LeFevre -

In your experience cablegod, are there more Oracle shops on Windows or on Linux? And if neither, which OS then? -

Most I see are on Solaris, Linux, HP-UX, and Windows, in that order.“Government is a disease masquerading as its own cure.” -Robert LeFevre
