Linux Computer Support and Administration in California

A widespread problem(s) in finding Tech Support Services for Linux servers:

It can be difficult to find a Tech Support Company that offers Linux Services. Many Tech Support Companies rely on supporting primarily Microsoft Products and services in California. Linux support seems like it's one of those hit-or-miss things. The second problem is- when you do find Linux Experts, they can get expensive very quickly. Race is Different.

Linux Desktops:

While it's not as common to see Linux in use in desktop applications, it's still a thing that we do see once in a while. Our idea is that Linux desktops are primarily a thing for “techies”- so we don’t get as many support requests for Linux Desktop systems in California on the regular.  We can effectively support all of the following, and more.
A few Desktop Systems still in use:

  • CentOS Enterprise Linux
  • Debian GNU/Linux
  • Fedora Linux
  • Linux Mint
  • Ubuntu Desktop

The following are some of the software packages we can provide service and support for:

  • Database Servers – MySQL, PostgreSQL
  • Desktops – GNOME, KDE

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is Linux?

Linux (/ˈliːnʊks/ (listen) LEE-nuuks or /ˈlɪnʊks/ LIN-uuks)[11] is a family of open-source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel,[12] an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991, by Linus Torvalds.[13][14][15] Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution.
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name "GNU/Linux" to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.[16][17]
Popular Linux distributions[18][19][20] include Debian, Fedora Linux, and Ubuntu, which itself has many different distributions and modifications, including Lubuntu and Xubuntu. Commercial distributions include Red Hat Enterprise Linux and SUSE Linux Enterprise. Desktop Linux distributions include a windowing system such as X11 or Wayland and a desktop environment such as GNOME or KDE Plasma. Distributions intended for servers may omit graphics altogether or include a solution stack such as LAMP. Because Linux is freely redistributable, anyone may create a distribution for any purpose.[21]
Linux was originally developed for personal computers based on the Intel x86 architecture but has since been ported to more platforms than any other operating system.[22] Because of the dominance of the Linux-based Android on smartphones, Linux, including Android, has the largest installed base of all general-purpose operating systems, as of May 2022.[23][24][25] Although Linux is, as of May 2022, used by only around 2.3 percent of desktop computers,[26] the Chromebook, which runs the Linux kernel-based Chrome OS, dominates the US K–12 education market and represents nearly 20 percent of sub-$300 notebook sales in the US.[27] Linux is the leading operating system on servers (over 96.4% of the top 1 million web servers' operating systems are Linux),[28] leads other big iron systems such as mainframe computers and is the only OS used on TOP500 supercomputers (since November 2017, having gradually eliminated all competitors).[29][30][31]
Linux also runs on embedded systems, i.e. devices whose operating system is typically built into the firmware and is highly tailored to the system. This includes routers, automation controls, smart home devices, televisions (Samsung and LG Smart TVs use Tizen and WebOS, respectively),[32][33][34] automobiles (Tesla, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai, and Toyota all rely on Linux),[35] digital video recorders, video game consoles, smartwatches,[36] Spacecraft (Falcon 9's and Dragon 2's avionics use a customized version of Linux),[37] and Rovers (The Mars 2020 Mission carried 3 Linux computers to Mars including the Ingenuity Helicopter).[38][39][40] Linux is one of the most prominent examples of free and open-source software collaboration. The source code may be used, modified and distributed commercially or non-commercially by anyone under the terms of its respective licenses, such as the GNU General Public License (GPL). The Linux kernel, for example, is licensed under the GPLv2, with a special exception for system calls, as without the system call exception any program calling on the kernel would be considered a derivative and therefore the GPL would have to apply to that program.[41][21]

2. Do We need a Monthly Extended Support Contract for Linux Consulting Services From Race Computer Services?

We don’t always require a longer-term support contract, but it can help us lower project or consulting pricing significantly. In certain cases, ongoing services are more of a requirement. It depends on your business needs.

3. DIs Race Computer Services considered a Linux Consulting Organization?

We normally support Linux Machines. Most of our service revenue comes from Microsoft Support, and part of our revenue from Linux Consulting services. We can support Linux Computers and provide Linux Consulting services, but it's not the basis of our company. But we are a nationally recognized IT Service Company and we can definitely help you with any Linux-based computer services you’re looking for.

4. Race Computer Services equipped to handle Linux Consulting Services for Larger Enterprise Sized Businesses?

Race Computer Services is equally equipped to provide Linux Consulting or Linux Administration services For larger scale businesses as well as smaller businesses. Linux Administration services are available as a tenant of a managed service, or on a consulting basis.
