Ask HN: Which enterprise companies use Unix and Unix-like operating systems?
2 points by manuelmagic 16 days ago | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
I was wondering who uses Unix or Unix-like operating system at enterprise level.

The Fortune 500 Company I work for completely decommissioned HP-UX and AIX many years ago.

Are there big companies that uses *BSD, Solaris or derivatives today? If yes, why? Is it only legacy or there are specific reasons?




imho (!)

idk ... but i have to admit, i'm a bit baffled right now:

afaik: linux is a unix-like operating system ...

first sentence / first line:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix-like

so the answer is: all of them ...

and the medium sized businesses, and the SOHO businesses and every private person which uses the internet!?

just my 0.02€
