Fedora OS



Fedora Operating System is an Open-Source Operating System which is based on Linux OS Kernel Architecture. It is designed as a secured operating system for the general-purpose. This offers virus protection, system tools, office productivity services and other desktop applications.


It is free to use and modify. This OS enhances the abilities of the software, Consistency, Procedures and functionality as an OS. Fedora OS is the second most used OS after Ubuntu.


History:

The name of Fedora derives from Fedora Linux, a volunteer project that provided extra software for the Red Hat Linux distribution, and from the characteristic fedora hat used in Red Hat's "Shadowman" logo. Warren Togami began Fedora Linux in 2002 as an undergraduate project at the University of Hawaii, intended to provide a single repository for well-tested third-party software packages so that non-Red Hat software would be easier to find, develop, and use. The key difference between Fedora Linux and Red Hat Linux was that Fedora's repository development would be collaborative with the global volunteer community. Fedora Linux was eventually absorbed into the Fedora Project, carrying with it this collaborative approach.


Fedora Linux was launched in 2003, when Red Hat Linux was discontinued. Red Hat Enterprise Linux was to be Red Hat's only officially supported Linux distribution, while Fedora was to be a community distribution. Red Hat Enterprise Linux branches its releases from versions of Fedora
