Linux vs RancherOS: What are the differences?
Linux: A family of free and open source software operating systems based on the Linux kernel. A clone of the operating system Unix, written from scratch by Linus Torvalds with assistance from a loosely-knit team of hackers across the Net. It aims towards POSIX and Single UNIX Specification compliance; RancherOS: Fast, ultra-lightweight container OS. It makes it simple to run containers at scale in development, test and production. By containerizing system services and leveraging Docker for management, the operating system provides a very reliable and easy to manage containers.
Linux and RancherOS can be primarily classified as "Operating Systems" tools.
Some of the features offered by Linux are:
- Portable(Multiplatform)
- Multitasking
- Multi User
On the other hand, RancherOS provides the following key features:
- Lightweight
- Rancher Integration
- Kuberenetes Integration
RancherOS is an open source tool with 5.48K GitHub stars and 553 GitHub forks. Here's a link to RancherOS's open source repository on GitHub.
Netdata introduces Linux eBPF (Extended Berkeley Packet Filter) monitoring. With this enabled, monitor real-time metrics of Linux kernel functions and actions from the very same monitoring and troubleshooting dashboard used for watching entire systems, or even entire infrastructures.
This collector uses eBPF to monitor system calls inside your operating system’s kernel. For now, the main goal of this plugin is to monitor IO and process management on the host where it is running.
If you have a file (demo.txt
) that has 3 columns:
Column-1 Column-2 Column-3
Row-1a Row-2a Row-3a
Row-1b Row-2b Row-3b
Row-1c Row-2c Row-3c
Row-1d Row-2d Row-3d
Row-1e Row-2e Row-3e
and you want to only view the first column of the file in your CLI, run the following:
awk {'print $1'} demo.txt
Column-1
Row-1a
Row-1b
Row-1c
Row-1d
Row-1e
If you want to print the second column of demo.txt
, just replace $1
with $2
