CoreOS vs Red Hat Enterprise Linux: What are the differences?
CoreOS: Linux for Massive Server Deployments. CoreOS is designed for security, consistency, and reliability. Instead of installing packages via yum or apt, CoreOS uses Linux containers to manage your services at a higher level of abstraction. A single service's code and all dependencies are packaged within a container that can be run on one or many CoreOS machines; Red Hat Enterprise Linux: Secure Operating System and Platform for Enterprise Hybrid Clouds. Red Hat Enterprise Linux includes military-grade security technologies—from network firewall control to secure containers for application isolation—to prevent intrusions and protect your data.
CoreOS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux can be primarily classified as "Operating Systems" tools.
SoFi, Astronomer, and Instamojo are some of the popular companies that use CoreOS, whereas Red Hat Enterprise Linux is used by Kanteron Systems, Voices.com, and Ericsson. CoreOS has a broader approval, being mentioned in 45 company stacks & 12 developers stacks; compared to Red Hat Enterprise Linux, which is listed in 14 company stacks and 13 developer stacks.
