-The brand-new CentOS 7.6 operating system has been released a few days ago on Dec 3. It will serve as basis for CineSat software development in 2019, and RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.6 (or CentOS 7.6will be the baseline for new customer systems in 2019. +The RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.6 operating system has recently been released. It will serve as basis for CineSat software development in 2019, and RHEL 7.6 will be the baseline for new customer systems in 2019. 
  
-For customers, the selection of their operating systems is just a matter of taste. Since 2014__RedHat and the CentOS project__ work closely together and every CentOS release is completely built from RedHat source code.  +Over the past 15 years of application development under Linux, the cooperation with RedHat and their support helped to resolve many issues regarding performance, hardware compatibility, and programming issues related to changes in the Linux kernel

-Both systems provide frequent updates, the only relevant difference is support.  +In particular__RedHat will be the preferred choice for new Dell servers__ that are being delivered with pre-installed operating systembecause Dell support will require an operating system delivered and certified by Dell. In case of hardware repair and changed spare partsRedHat support may be significant advantage.
-CineSat systems are usually being operated as black boxes on pre-configured serversso end-users will need application support but not necessarily any support to the depths of the operating system, like special hardware drivers. Basic Linux system administration skills are sufficient to operate pre-configured CineSat server.+
  
-__RedHat will be the preferred choice for new Dell servers__ which are being delivered with pre-installed operating systembecause Dell support may require an operating system delivered and certified by Dell. In case of hardware repair and changed spare parts, RedHat support may be a significant advantage. +The CineSat Support Team can provide full support for all configuration and administration tasks on RedHat systemssince all our development and office backend systems are based on RedHat Enterprise Linux.
-Otherwise, the difference does not matter from the CineSat application's point of view.+
