Support Contract for Oracle Linux

marljerome-makatimedOct 23 2015 — edited Nov 6 2015

Hi All,

I am proposing an initiative in our company to standardize our Linux installations. Of course, this includes the choice of Linux distro to use. Right now, we're currently running a mix of different distros for our applications. Factors we are considering are the cost and the stability of the OS. Following some time of evaluation, we have shortlisted the following distros as the possible candidates for this initiative:

* Oracle Linux

* CentOS

* SLES

We have an existing support contract with Novell for SLES so I think it makes sense to add them into consideration. However, we are leaning towards considering a viable free alternative to reduce costs. With that, I would like to know what is Oracle's official stand regarding Oracle Linux's support.


a) Is it required to purchase an Oracle Linux support contract if I want to use OL on a production environment?

b) Does running Oracle database on Oracle Linux require addition licensing and/or support cost?

I would appreciate it if you can point me to some official references regarding this topic as well.

Thank you in advance.
