I will investigate which Linux is being widely used worldwide



Since the load problem showed convergence, this time I am looking for a new hosting changeover destination, which Linux distribution should I choose? As I go to the problem, I am glad that there are lots of information on the net, so I investigated it for a while.

I thought that global trends and trends in Japan would be different, but they seem to be quite different.

The results of the survey are as follows.
First, there are various distributions of Linux, but this time it is a level that can withstand business applications, we select the following five.

Debian: Approximately 119,000,000 (Japanese: about 3,070,000)
RedHat: Approximately 65,200,000 (Japanese: about 1,520,000)
Fedora: Approximately 54,600,000 (Japanese: approximately 2,170,000)
Ubuntu: Approximately 48,600,000 (Japanese: about 809,000)
SUSE: About 76,800,000 cases (Japanese: about 1,340,000 cases)

Compared with Google search results, Debian is very numerous globally, next is SUSE, then Redhat, Fedora, Ubuntu. I do not feel like I am lined up in the oldest order .... If this is the case, those with many past assets will be advantageous. In Japan, Debian, Fedora, Redhat, SUSE, Ubuntu.

Next, let's examine it with "Google Trends". This should make you understand current momentum.

Google Trends: debian, suse, redhat, fedora, ubuntu(the whole world)

Google Trends: debian, suse, redhat, fedora, ubuntu(Japan)

Ubuntu 's momentum is very widespread, worldwide, Redhat falls down, otherwise it is a crowd. Focusing on Japan, Fedora seems to have momentum.

Next I will look at the case of blog. Compare with search results of Technorati which can search blogs in real time.

Debian: 106,659 (Japanese: 12,516 cases)
Suse: 64,273 (Japanese: 3,995)
Redhat: 35,755 (Japanese: 4,056 cases)
Fedora: 85,502 cases (Japanese: 12,272 cases)
Ubuntu: 123,658 cases (Japanese: 3,224 cases)

Ubuntu is the world most, next is Debian, and Fedora, SUSE, RedHat. Debian is the largest in Japan, next is Fedora, RedHat, SUSE, Ubuntu.

If it says worldwide trends now Ubuntu is strong, Japan is Fedora, but if you say in terms of the amount of information including past assets, it seems that Debian surely gets wired.
