MR
System Administrator at a aerospace/defense firm with 10,001+ employees
Daily monitoring has improved security and performance and supports reliable administration
What I dislike about Oracle Linux 8 | Support by SupportedImages mainly pertains to the command prompt. Everything is written in the command line, so if it were more graphical, where I could use a mouse pointer or an AI system to update and be more automated and user-friendly, it would be better. There would be no need to memorize any command. For example, if I want to delete something, I should be able to use the mouse pointer, go to the specific folder, and right-click to delete. If Oracle Linux 8 | Support by SupportedImages added this type of user-friendly graphical interface, it would be more usable and faster for everybody without needing to be a super expert.

Familiar platform has supported reliable on-premise file sharing and directory services
I am not currently using virtual machines, but I intend to switch over from VMware, and if I do, I may use the Shielded Virtual Machines feature. I am not using the Nano Server product, so I cannot comment on its impact on reducing server footprint in my organization. I am not working with Windows Containers for managing application deployment. I do not know about the integration capability of Windows Server 2016 (Windows Server 2016) | Support by SupportedImages with Microsoft Azure, as I do not use the cloud. I would give Windows Server 2016 (Windows Server 2016) | Support by SupportedImages a rating of eight on a scale from zero to ten.
