We are living in a technology era where new technologies and tools emerge every day. To match with the market competition. So, in this blog we will be focusing on why one should learn to operate linux.

Today almost 68 % of websites/apps are working on linux server. If you want to understand and work with servers, you need to understand linux. Linux is a open and free source and it’s flexible than any other operating systems. Linux can be built into almost anything you want. Outside of the basic kernel, you can essentially build an operating system by adding packages to create your own distribution. If you’re willing to take the time to build it, you can create just about anything you want, from a bulletproof server to the most beautiful workstation you’ve ever seen.

Even the top companies such as Google’s servers, Netflix, Microsoft, IBM, FACEBOOK, AMAZON, SAMSUNG are powered by Linux, Android is powered by Linux and Chrome OS is powered by Linux also!

Linux is most secure system as security is a major part of the Linux working environment. Because the system is built by an open-source community, an untold number of eyes are constantly examining the system for security issues. And linux itself is that secure you don’t need to install other antivirus. Installing Linux on your PC is a simple task and it protects your system from harmful viruses and malware. It is more stable when compared to the Windows platform.The Linux platform is known for its stability and the users don’t experience frequent crashes. The speed doesn’t deteriorate as the time goes on. The processing speed will be exactly the same at the time of installation and the speed will be the same after several years of usage. Unlike, in the Windows platform, the processing speed deteriorates as the time goes on. So the only option that is left over is to reinstall the OS and all other software.

ONE OS TO RULE THEM ALL, ONE OS TO FIND THEM ALL, ONE OS TO RULE CALL THEM. AND IN SALVATION BIND THEM. IN THE BRIGHT LAND OF LINUX, WHERE HACKERS PLAY. J.SCOTT THAYER .

This is definitely a good option for the students to learn OS understand the basics of an operating system and further build solutions using the same platform by addressing local issues.

Mainly linux is used by hackers so, some people think it is illegal but no it’s just an operating system (os) , where a person seats in front of a blank window called terminal and works. Why we don’t use linux as our main operating system even I use kali linux as my daily system. There are many ways to learn linux and its very useful.
