Summary: Why would you use Oracle Linux?
• Can the Linux OS really make a difference in your environment?
o Is it supported in all Cloud Solutions?
• Are you running your Oracle Database on Oracle Linux?
• Does this add simplicity to my environment or complexity?
• Performance-what does it do for my environment today and where I want to take it?

Oracle Linux has been found to help in these areas:
• Supported in both Hybrid and Multi-Cloud environments
• Increase IT agility & efficiency, while reducing complexity
• User-friendly, and well managed, and organized structure
o Pre-configurations save time
• Increase IT Security while reducing risk
• Increases Performance and reliability
• Reduce infrastructure costs.

Oracle Ksplice updates select, critical components of your Oracle Linux installation with all of the important security patches without needing to reboot.
With rebootless updates, you can:
• Save time and pain by updating in seconds, while your systems are running.
• Avoid downtime.
• Prevent disastrous security incidents by making it easy to stay up to date.
What gets patched?
• Not all patches are created equal. Ksplice patches run-time security vulnerabilities and stability bugs. Whether it's the latest CVE targeting the network stack, an overflow in the DNS resolver, or a kernel panic caused by a poorly written driver, Ksplice will quickly provide protection to your system, without rebooting or restarting applications.
