Two part question:

1. Is Fedora suitable for enterprise production use (vs. home lab or personal use) or is any rolling release distro not ideal in that context?

2. Is Rocky considered the spiritual successor to CentOS and preferred over Fedora for enterprise production workloads?

My actual real world scenario is that I need to stand up a Linux server to run Zabbix in a small-ish (-50 servers, -225 client machines) non-profit organization. It’s currently in proof of concept running Debian 13, but I lean towards RedHat lineage based on previous work experience so I’m debating between Fedora and Rocky. My gut says Rocky as it’s intended as a free bug-for-bug clone of RHEL, and Fedora is rolling release and more for home labs and hobbyists.

Thoughts?
