Oracle Linux is an enterprise-class Linux distribution supported by Oracle and built from source packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). Some of the special features of Oracle Linux include a custom-build and rigorously-tested Linux kernel called 'Oracle Unbreakable Kernel', tight integration with Oracle's hardware and software products including most database applications, and 'zero downtime patching' - a feature that enables administrators to update the kernel without a reboot.
