I don't imagine Canonical has the Enterprise covered to the extent
that RedHat and SUSE do, but please let me know...

Your choice of GNU/Linux distribution maybe should take into account
how inherently secure it is, you might look at the following
information. More info at my blog.

SUSE Enterprise software manager will indicate actual CVE reports and
at a glance you can see which boxen need to be updated, etc.

I also just read that RedHat is giving away RHEL to developers...

I just attended SUSE Expert Days 2016 and IBM representative Mr. Greg
R. Lee spoke about the latest IBM innovations in hardware/processing
and sheer power of LinuxONE (R) technology in combination with
open-source db's running on SUSE Enterprise Linux, I put up a review
at my blog, see below.
