1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,860 [No audio] 2 00:00:01,860 --> 00:00:05,100 Linux versus Windows. The reason I'm including 3 00:00:05,100 --> 00:00:08,340 this lesson in this training is because when you 4 00:00:08,340 --> 00:00:11,250 need to know a lot about a certain technology, it 5 00:00:11,250 --> 00:00:14,340 is good to compare one thing with another, like 6 00:00:14,340 --> 00:00:19,470 whenever you can need to compare, let's say a car, 7 00:00:19,620 --> 00:00:23,010 you have to have certain comparison with other 8 00:00:23,010 --> 00:00:27,060 cars. For example, if you are buying Mercedes, you 9 00:00:27,060 --> 00:00:30,270 should know a few differences between Mercedes and 10 00:00:30,270 --> 00:00:33,150 BMW and Audi. So this way you can make a right 11 00:00:33,150 --> 00:00:36,180 decision, or you will know the features that you 12 00:00:36,180 --> 00:00:39,180 will be getting with your new car. So that's why I'm 13 00:00:39,180 --> 00:00:42,180 comparing Linux with Windows, so you will know 14 00:00:42,180 --> 00:00:44,940 exactly what the difference is, the basic 15 00:00:44,940 --> 00:00:47,490 difference, and you will be able to answer any 16 00:00:47,490 --> 00:00:51,630 questions that come up during the interview. The 17 00:00:51,630 --> 00:00:54,390 first difference between Linux and Windows is by 18 00:00:54,390 --> 00:00:58,320 the price, of course Linux is free. And not all 19 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,380 the distributions are free, Red Hat is not for you, 20 00:01:01,380 --> 00:01:04,530 and you would have to pay for subscription support. 21 00:01:04,769 --> 00:01:08,820 Whereas Windows, it's not free, you will have to pay 22 00:01:08,820 --> 00:01:13,620 for it. Ease. Linux is not user friendly, you 23 00:01:13,620 --> 00:01:16,770 would have to run user commands to get your tasks 24 00:01:16,770 --> 00:01:19,950 done. Whereas Windows, you have a GUI to do most 25 00:01:19,950 --> 00:01:22,320 of those tasks, all you have to do is double click, 26 00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:24,300 run the program, and you're done. Most of the 27 00:01:24,300 --> 00:01:27,180 things are done through the GUI. Reliability, 28 00:01:27,210 --> 00:01:31,260 Linux is very reliable. Oftentimes, it runs 29 00:01:31,260 --> 00:01:33,990 for months and years, where you don't even have to 30 00:01:33,990 --> 00:01:38,220 reboot it. Where in Windows, it often requires a 31 00:01:38,220 --> 00:01:43,650 reboot. Now Windows have done a lot better, its 32 00:01:43,650 --> 00:01:45,900 operating system has become a lot better and 33 00:01:45,900 --> 00:01:48,660 stable, where you don't need to reboot or it 34 00:01:48,660 --> 00:01:52,140 doesn't crash oftentimes. Software, most of the 35 00:01:52,140 --> 00:01:55,050 software's are enterprise level software that runs 36 00:01:55,050 --> 00:01:57,750 in Linux, whereas Windows, there's a much larger 37 00:01:57,750 --> 00:02:00,810 selection of software, for example, office, games, 38 00:02:00,810 --> 00:02:05,190 utilities, and a lot more. Also, Windows offers our 39 00:02:05,340 --> 00:02:08,639 live chat, chat on social media softwares. 40 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:14,220 Multitasking, now multitasking is one of the basic 41 00:02:14,220 --> 00:02:17,820 reason why people came up with Unix and Linux 42 00:02:17,970 --> 00:02:20,670 type of operating system, because back then they 43 00:02:20,670 --> 00:02:23,310 needed some type of operating system that could 44 00:02:23,310 --> 00:02:26,550 perform multitask. And for those who don't do not 45 00:02:26,550 --> 00:02:28,800 know what multitasking is in terms of operating 46 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,340 system, it's about running multiple processes at 47 00:02:32,340 --> 00:02:36,360 the same time. Whereas in Windows, you could run 48 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,770 multiple multitasking, but you do need a lot of 49 00:02:40,770 --> 00:02:43,980 high CPU and memory. Please do remember, I'm not 50 00:02:43,980 --> 00:02:46,680 trying to say Windows bad or Linux is the best. 51 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,590 I'm trying to compare some of the basic features. 52 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,860 Windows have done an amazing job in the past few 53 00:02:52,860 --> 00:02:55,260 years where they have come up with tools like 54 00:02:55,290 --> 00:02:58,170 Active Directory Domain Controller, Microsoft 55 00:02:58,170 --> 00:03:02,970 Exchange, and SQL server running on Windows. 56 00:03:03,150 --> 00:03:05,340 They have done an amazing job and they have 57 00:03:05,340 --> 00:03:09,690 pioneered the market in that. So there are a few 58 00:03:09,690 --> 00:03:12,270 things that are very good on Windows and in Linux, 59 00:03:12,570 --> 00:03:16,080 there aren't in terms of programmings. security 60 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:20,700 wise, Linux is very secure and Windows is somewhat 61 00:03:20,700 --> 00:03:23,820 secure, and why is that is, because Windows is more 62 00:03:23,820 --> 00:03:30,150 vulnerable to hacking because it is facing the 63 00:03:30,150 --> 00:03:34,350 internet, because people run like social media type 64 00:03:34,350 --> 00:03:38,370 of things or chatting sessions and a lot of 65 00:03:38,370 --> 00:03:41,130 different things that they run and they're 66 00:03:41,130 --> 00:03:43,650 accessing the internet. Wherein in Linux you don't 67 00:03:43,650 --> 00:03:48,180 access the internet. Open source, Linux is open to 68 00:03:48,180 --> 00:03:50,370 public, there's the code is out there, you can 69 00:03:50,370 --> 00:03:52,680 modify the code, you will come up with your own 70 00:03:52,710 --> 00:03:56,430 operating system, whereas Windows, you cannot do 71 00:03:56,430 --> 00:04:00,180 anything. It is owned by Microsoft, you cannot have 72 00:04:00,210 --> 00:04:04,364 the code open or revealed to anyone. 73 00:04:04,364 --> 00:04:05,994 [No audio]
