What are the characteristics of linux? Many novices are not very clear about this. In order to help you solve this problem, the following editor will explain it in detail. People with this need can come and learn. I hope you can gain something.

Linux is free, free and open source, it is based on unix as a prototype, a multi-user and multi-task operating system, anyone can modify its code and pages, the main purpose is not to accept commercial restrictions, and we will deploy the server on the linux system will be more efficient, stable and secure.

Note: UNIX operating system (Younis) is a powerful multi-user, multi-tasking operating system that supports multiple processor architectures.

Linux was originally designed by Linus Torvalds, a student of the University of Helsinki in Finland, in 1991. The kernel of the linux system was formally adopted by GPL in 1994.

GPL: the General Public license Agreement, which guarantees that the software is free to all users and that anyone can modify the software code, applies to most free software foundations.

GUN: is a software collection system, a lot of software in GUN gathered in linux, only then has produced the present linux.

Fedora Core, a branch of the linux version, is one of the many distributions of linux. It is an open and innovative operating system platform. Its predecessor is Red Hat Linux, which allows anyone to modify and redistribute freely, managed and controlled by the Fedora Foundation. Due to the poor stability of Fedora, it is generally only used for desktop applications.

Debian: born in 1993, it is jointly maintained by many developers and is currently the most linux GPL-compliant system. Because it is text-based, cumbersome to operate, and particularly annoying to use, Debian is known for its stability as a server platform.

Linux not only has the program interface and operation mode of Unix system, but also inherits the stable and efficient characteristics of Unix.

It is common for hosts installing Linux on the network to operate continuously for more than a year without shutting down or shutting down, but Linux does not have to bear huge copyright fees like the general Unix, nor does it need to be used on exclusive expensive hardware.

Linux can be executed on the general i386 PC with high efficiency. It naturally receives the program resources and users accumulated on Unix over the past few decades. In addition, the copyright of GPL allows everyone to freely distribute the source code of Linux and modify the program according to their own needs. At present, Linux has become a very popular operating system with multi-person, multi-task, free, stable, high efficiency, and can be executed on many different computer system platforms, including i386, Sparc, Alpha, Mips, PPC and so on.
