Re: The RedHat corporate spinners won't fix this

Linux is Linux ; switching between CentOS and pretty much every other Linux usually only directly affects the deploy / management mechanisms. Most of the major packages are available for all distro's , if not it's usually easy for a competent IT department to fill the void.

CentOS, like RHEL and Fedora use dnf with RPM for package management

Debian with Ubuntu and other clones use apt with dpkg for package management

If you're a big RHEL/CentOS shop you might have a spacewalk / satellite management server, I don't know of a full equivalent for Debian Ubuntu
