Question

Could someone tell me which are the primary companies developing Linux?

Answer 1

Linux is an open-source and free operating system that is being used around by various organizations around the globe. Many of the major tech companies are using Linux, Google, IBM, Oracle, etc. and even the majority of Supercomputers use Linux as their OS. The primary companies that are involved in contributing to the Linux Kernel to continually develop it, are; RedHat (8%), Intel (12.9%), Samsung (3.9%), IBM (2.7%), Linaro (4%), SUSE (3.2%), etc. These companies are paying their employees who are working for the development of open-sourced Linux OS.

If you are seeking to add Linux to your profile for better job prospects, I would recommend you to enroll in the Linux training course from Intellipaat, which will help you in acquiring practical skills through projects and exercises. Also, I would like you to watch our latest YouTube video on Linux Administration Tutorial to get a better idea.
