Red Hat Enterprise Linux is a fork of CentOS Linux, but there are distinguishing features that make Red Hat Enterprise Linux significantly more agile and secure. Red Hat Enterprise Linux also enables you to manage applications and services using the same tools consistently across various infrastructure footprints.
If your organization needs a production-grade operating system to run critical business systems, migrating to a fully supported Red Hat® Enterprise Linux subscription with a predictable life cycle and extensive partner ecosystem is a straight-forward process that results in a deployment with a similar user experience to that of CentOS Linux.
