  Red Hat Enterprise Linux - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (often abbreviated to RHEL) is a Linux distribution produced by Red Hat and targeted toward the commercial market, including mainframes.
Red Hat undertakes to support each release of RHEL for 7 years after it first appears.
Nothing on the Red Hat site or in the Red Hat marketing collateral explains what "ES" (or "AS" or "WS") stands for, even though the user community has developed (mostly) widely accepted meanings for the abbreviations.

 Red Hat Linux - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is one of the "middle-aged" Linux distributions; 1.0 was released in November 3, 1994.
Red Hat Linux 9, the final release, hit its official end-of-life on April 30, 2004, although the Fedora Legacy project continues to publish updates.
Red Hat Linux was originally developed exclusively inside Red Hat, with the only feedback from users coming through bug reports and contributions to the included software packages — not contributions to the distribution as such.

 Linux Today - Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 Storms the Enterprise
Red Hat, Inc. made the announcement effective midnight this morning, but much about the product is already known, thanks to the Raleigh, NC company’s beta releases and early product reviews in the media.
Because of Red Hat's new devotion to working with a single set of source code, the company is able to simultaneously build for the different platforms and maintain the same features for the various architectures as time goes on.
While enterprise customers are savvy enough to see through the painted perception of Linux developers as a bunch of t-shirted hobbyists living in their parents' basement, small- to mid-sized business users may still carry that misperception.

 Red Hat overhauls flagship Linux | CNET News.com
Red Hat Enterprise Linux, or RHEL, has been a key product for the company, which has spent years trying to turn a profit by selling branded versions of an operating system whose components are available for free on the Internet.
Red Hat's focus on corporate buyers may have boosted the company's financial fortunes, but it is alienating some customers--in particular those from schools with tight budgets.
At the same time Red Hat created the Enterprise Linux line, which changes slowly so hardware and software companies have time to adjust to changes and certify their products, it has given more free reign to its other version, now called Fedora, which is available for free.

 Rackspace offers hosting on Red Hat Enterprise Linux
For Red Hat, the deal with Rackspace is "yet another distribution channel for customers to expand their Linux usage with hosting rather than in-house," he said.
Rackspace has been using Red Hat's earlier operating systems for its hosting and is now moving to the new operating systems as Red Hat winds down support for older versions by the end of the year.
By using Red Hat's enterprise versions, she said, "it makes the ground more fertile for developers" to create new business applications that can be hosted.
