Whats different in Redhat Enterprise Linux ?
It was spun of from Linux 2.4 Kernel at about the time Redhat 7.2 shipped in 2001. Since that time the code's received significant enhancements to improve its scalability especially oracle database scalability.
Asynchronous I/O is another feature that attacks latency penalty. Applications can request an I/O operation and then continue processing without having to wait for its completion
Redhat has also improved the granularity of the locks it uses to co-ordinate access to critical I/O code in a multiprocessor system.
Outside the Kernel a significant addition is high availability clustering derived from Kimberlite technology.
