Hi there,

Currently every server we run in our datacenter is gentoo driven.
|

From our Bind nameservers ( one of the has a uptime of 897 days by now ) to several mysql database servers, xen cluster with livemigration, ietd iscsi targets, apache webserver, radius, postfix mailservers with pop3 and imap postboxes for several hundred clients and syslog server.
|

Everyone single one of them is running in mission critical under enterprise circumstances. A lot is virtualized with xen and its pure joy being able to livemigrate several virtual hosts from A to B without any service disturbance. Maintaining these server is pure fun. Im just convinced that Gentoo is made for datacenters ;) Well of course managing all these portage trees and keeping software up to date can keep you busy for some time but I assume that this is not different to any other distri.

Especially the fact that I was able to turn off 5 physical servers because their tasks are now managed on the xen cluster was impressive.
|

I'm also using Gentoo on my companies workstation. I just feel that I can't work as nearly as effective with windows as I do with Gentoo Linux.
