Explaining five points for migrating from CentOS to Ubuntu LTS. Also introducing Advantech's Ubuntu-compatible embedded products.
As Red Hat Software ends support for CentOS, many users are considering which platform to migrate to. "Cost" and "support" are the two key factors in the decision-making process. Canonical's Ubuntu offers a modern and stable platform with regular security updates, making it a very popular choice. Ubuntu is user-friendly, and Canonical continues to maintain this OS. This sets it apart from other Linux distributions. Additionally, 66% of experienced engineers and 69% of students prefer using Ubuntu over other Linux distributions. Ubuntu 20.04 LTS comes with over 30,000 open-source packages, including Python, Ruby, Go, Java, Apache, Nginx, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Node.js, and PHP, which is cited as a reason for its popularity.
