Red Hat questions Canonical's Ubuntu EC2 popularity claims
LINUX VENDOR Red Hat has cast doubt on Canonical's claim that Ubuntu is the most popular Linux distribution on Amazon's EC2 service by saying it uses "selective" data.
Although Red Hat is widely recognised as the dominant enterprise Linux distribution, Canonical's claim suggests that Ubuntu is increasingly being deployed in the enterprise, taking a bite out of Red Hat's bread and butter market. However Scott Crenshaw, VP of Red Hat's Cloud Business Unit said the claim was based on "selective data released by Canonical".
Crenshaw answered a question put forward by The INQUIRER at a roundtable following a statement he made that Red Hat is the most popular Linux distribution on public clouds.
