Red Hat Enterprise Linux

  • Is not free, and its also used for business. Red Hat Linux, assembled by the company Red Hat, was a popular Linux based operating system.
  • It is best for server purpose used and for enterprise.
  • Red Hat uses RPM package manager.

Ubuntu

  • Is free.
  • Is a Linux distribution that starts with the breadth of Debian and adds regular releases (every six months), a clear focus on the user and usability (it should “Just Work”, TM) and a commitment to security updates with 18 months of support for every release.
  • It is best for home based Desktop user.
  • Ubuntu uses the dpkg (Debian) package system.

Due to its differing packaging system, Ubuntu is expected to be more flexible and easier to implement. That's why I will prefer to use Ubuntu.

Linux

  • Linux is operating system like other operating system windows.

Windows: Windows 98, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7
