What's the difference between linux and unix? 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.

UNIX is a powerful and comprehensive multi-user, multi-task operating system, which can be applied to many different platforms, from supercomputers to ordinary PCs.

Linux is an operating system that looks and performs the same as or better than UNIX, but Linux does not come from any version of the source code of UNIX, not UNIX, but a product similar to UNIX.

Difference:

Linux is the free software that develops the source code, and UNIX is the traditional commercial software that protects the intellectual property of the source code.

Most UNIX systems are equipped with hardware, while Linux can run on a variety of hardware platforms.

UNIX is a system under the command line, and linux is a system with form management.

In terms of hardware requirements, linux is lower than unix and less demanding than unix. Linux is easier to master than unix in installation.

Add:

1. At present, there are three kinds of mainstream Unix systems, which are AIX, HP-UX and Solaris, which run on their own Unix servers. These Unix servers have their own system, with their own CPU, memory, motherboard and so on.

2. These Unix systems are not compatible with each other, and they each have their own system engineers. These engineers are generally only familiar with some of the Unix systems. If they want to be familiar with other Unix systems, they have to continue to learn. These Unix systems are not good or bad, only different.

3. In addition, Unix servers are used in key application areas of various industries at present. Why? Linux generally runs on PC, which is not stable and parallelism is not enough. It is generally used in small enterprises.

4. The Unix system runs on Unix servers, which are very stable and have been tested for decades, and the number of CPU of these Unix servers can reach more than 100, with a very high degree of parallelism, which can not be matched by PC.

5. At present, Unix server is in a monopoly position in the key applications in telecom, finance, oil field, mobile, securities and other industries. Therefore, only by mastering the Unix can we really enter the high-end industry, which is very important for the future career development.
