Overview

    Debian is a free operating system, developed by thousands of volunteers from all over the world who collaborate via the Internet. The Debian project's key strengths are its volunteer base, its dedication to the Debian Social Contract and Free Software, and its commitment to provide the best operating system possible. This new release is another important step in that direction.

    Highlights

    • After 1 year, 9 months, and 28 days of development, the Debian project is proud to present its new stable version 12 (code name "bookworm").
    • Based on a cloud optimized Linux 6.1 kernel with support for Enhanced Networking and Elastic Network Adaptor (ENA) networking. These AMIs include awscli version 2, cloud-init, and boto.
    • "bookworm" will be supported for the next 5 years thanks to the combined work of the Debian Security team and the Debian Long Term Support team.

    Lightweight, straightforward linux distribution

    Reviewed on Jun 09, 2024
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    It can be run on just about anything. We have plenty of old computers to continue running Windows, but found new lives running as Debian-based servers.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Coming from Windows/Windows Server, the learning curve is fairly substantial. However, once you get the hang of it, the knowledge applies to other Linux distributions as well. Also, there is a plethora of help online.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We need to use Docker to run most of our applications. Debian is the most efficient way to run these Docker containers. Also, we have old computers that do very well when running Debian as a CLI-only OS.
