Bank projects have gained strong security and reliable performance for critical applications
From my experience as a partner, the biggest advantage of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 (redhat 9) | Support by SupportedImages is that it is a stable and reliable product. It is a reliable OS when I am using it for applications because we run middleware software upon the OS, which means if there are problems or security holes in the OS, my applications also face those issues. In that scenario, the stability and security of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 (redhat 9) | Support by SupportedImages is commendable. The security policy of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 (redhat 9) | Support by SupportedImages is improved, but security measures must still be implemented. After we install the operating system, the customer's bank security team will harden the OS to block any potential breaches or malicious activities. To measure performance with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 (redhat 9) | Support by SupportedImages, I assess how much RAM and CPU the background processes are consuming. I can restrict these processes to ensure that minimal background processes run, allowing my application server software and applications to operate better with the available memory and CPU resources.

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.

Pros

"From my experience as a partner, the biggest advantage of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 (redhat 9) | Support by SupportedImages is that it is a stable and reliable product."
"It is pricey, but our product requires a high level of security and performance, making it much better than Ubuntu and other Linux options."
"Cloud integration is quite easy, and containerization support along with file system level enhancements has improved considerably."
"I can state that I almost never see crashes or glitches in my experience."
"The product is familiar to use, which is a positive aspect."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement regarding response time and first-level support quality."
"Maybe for the virtual machine management, we utilize Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 (redhat 9) | Support by SupportedImages because it is so powerful. We have a lower version of Red Hat for previous virtual machine management, and since we now have a new version, virtual machine management is more complicated."
"Regarding the technical team of Red Hat, I find the support to be a mixed bag. In my region during office hours, calls go to the Asia Pacific support team, which is not up to the mark."
"I would not agree that Windows Server 2016 (Windows Server 2016) | Support by SupportedImages is 99% stable and reliable."
