RHEL vs Windows - which to choose for Private Synthetic Monitoring ?

rswarnka — Tue, 13 Apr 2021 13:34:35 GMT

Need experts input on which OS would be most appropriate for Private Synthetic Monitoring (Ural based + Browser based) for long term and implementation simplicity?

We want to avoid vulnerabilities mitigation, ability to record scripts may be using plugins.

However, would like to take prior experiences from community.

I think it is no difference here. I prefer Linux always because it’s from my experience better in working long time without restart, needs less resources and disk space as well so you have more resources for ActiveGate process.

In general, I agree, but in the case of Private Synthetics, there is much more work involved in the installation due to the prerequisites involved. My thought is Windows may make more sense for this particular AG use case.

@Dev team, May I know know specific reasons why Windows 10 Pro has limited support for private synthetic? Given the fact that enterprises environment move slowly over upcoming technologies, i expect that there should be some support for the same. This is expected by clients. Kindly suggest.
