If I'm remembering right, RHEL is Crowdstrike's primary Linux target. And NixOS wouldn't even be a factor since it's basically just not enterprise grade.
That said, they need a serious revision of their QA processes.
RHEL, Ubuntu, & Debian cover the vast majority of enterprise installs I imagine, and provide a solid testing base for developers in the Linux business software space.
Maybe you add Gentoo, some post-CentOS clones/forks, or other more niche industry/workload specific distros, but how you do skip Debian?
Enterprises I imagine are using RHEL, Ubuntu, SUSE's SLES and Oracle Linux and probably not Debian. But that's a guess. Where can statistics and numbers be found ?
consultant for large enterprises in australia, and i literally can’t say i’ve ever seen anyone running anything other than RHEL and amazon linux (so… RHEL) in production… unless we’re talking not for profits, and then that’s been a bit of a mixed bag
