Windows 11Amazon released Linux 2 - an attempt to change the game
Last month, immediately after the Amazon Web Services conference, they began offering Amazon Linux 2, a new version of the Linux OS for Amazon's business customers. Customers can run Linux 2 on Amazon's cloud or on. its own server. This product marks Amazon's first major step to provide software that runs on a client's server instead of just running on its cloud server.
Besides customers using their cloud services, Amazon also provides this product for other companies that want to install Linux 2 on their servers. It can run on most popular server software such as Microsoft Hyper-V, Oracle VirtualBox VM or Docker.
Linux 2 will be supported by Amazon for 5 years, including security patches and bug fixes. Linux 2 is also designed to work with open source databases, programming languages and many other popular applications. As its name suggests, this is the second version of Linux that Amazon provides. Customers can run the previous version on the server but will be more limited.
Amazon decided to extend its arm to the hybrid cloud market
This is an important step because the Amazon has made cloud computing technology popular, threatening businesses to provide hardware and software. Instead of buying servers and software, businesses can rent on the cloud and pay for it based on what they use.
- AWS and Azure dominate the cloud world, above all, no one wins
- Multicloud - a new step in cloud computing technology
Many businesses have abandoned servers and repositories that move everything to Amazon's cloud data center. This success of Amazon also affected many big players like EMC, Hewlett Packard and IBM.
Microsoft, Oracle (all with their own Linux versions), Red Hat and many others are trying to fight Amazon with a solution called Hybrid Cloud, a hybrid technology that allows businesses to use both cloud services and physical server, easy to switch between those two options.
Linux 2 is Amazon's effort to 'reach out' into the hybrid world above. Last year, they also partnered with VMware to allow customers using VMware to easily transfer applications to Amazon's cloud.
Linux 2 also targets the giant on the Linux market: Red Hat. Even Amazon announced the Linux 2 on the day Red Hat announced its third quarter business results. The two sides are partners, but Amazon is famous for competing with its partners.
However, Red Hat investors may be overreacting. Karl Keirstea from Deutsche Bank advises them to stay calm because although Amazon releases Linux 2 it is hard to be happy with Red Hat, but it is mostly used for development and testing rather than running business applications. Companies won't leave Red Hat soon.
