Linux mining benefits
some time ago, the Chinese government issued relevant regulations
forbidding the Internet and other websites to use bitcoin trading
which led to a sharp drop in the price of bitcoin
the latest transaction price of bitcoin in China is 2908
this year, the transaction price hit 8000 on November 19
and fell to 4000 on November 21
this thing can't be played without deep wealth and big heart
First of all, the answer: Linux system has more advantages than windows
The main advantages ofare as follows:
< UL >
operation is relatively more stable and maintenance is more convenient
the cost of system resources is small (that is, the hardware requirements are not high), and the mining cost is saved
the installation and debugging are simple, and the technical threshold is lower
fully open source system, free legal edition, more stable and further save mining cost? In fact, you only need two steps to mine under Linux system:
< UL >open the website, enter the mobile phone number, select how many CPUs you want to use to mine, the default is to use 50% of the CPU to mine, click to generate your exclusive command and
is such a simple operation
Yes
please refer to the following tutorial:
Mining with idle Linux server
Mining tutorial of Ethereum Linux system
installation of zcash under Linux to start mining tutorial
Yes, why not. Moreover, it is easy to operate and has the following advantages:
< UL >it is more stable and easy to maintain
the cost of system resources is small (that is, the hardware requirements are not high), and the mining cost is saved
the installation and debugging are simple, and the technical threshold is lower
full open source system, free legal edition, more stable and further save mining cost? In fact, you only need two steps to mine under Linux system:
open the website, enter the mobile phone number, select how many CPUs you want to use to mine, the default is to use 50% of the CPU to mine, click to generate your exclusive command and
is such a simple operation
secondly, the Linux kernel is well optimized. No Linux needs the right-click refresh key (red flag Linux is added for the usage habits of Chinese people), while windows is different. Microsoft's system is very complex, and its operation efficiency is much lower than that of Linux
although Linux has no advantage in the desktop market (only accounts for a little more than 1%), its position in the server instry is invincible (more than 20%)
linux takes up very few system resources. In the early days of Linux, 64M memory can run very smoothly, which is also his advantage
I've just mentioned a few aspects that I know better, but there are still many advantages of Linux, and I have to understand them in practice. I feel that if I completely rely on Microsoft's more and more humanized graphical interface, people will become more and more stupid and eventually become slaves of windows. This is a terrible thing. Ha ha, I hope it can help you
In the eyes of users, Linux is a nearly perfect operating system, which has the advantages of stable operation, powerful function and easy access. The specific analysis is as follows:
advantage 1: cross platform hardware support
because most of the kernel of Linux is written in C language, and uses the portable UNIX standard application program interface, it supports such as i386, alpha, Linux, etc AMD, SPARC and other system platforms, as well as a variety of hardware devices from personal computers to mainframe, and even embedded systems< Advantage 2: rich software support
different from other operating systems, some office software, graphics processing tools, multimedia playing software and network tools commonly used by users do not need to be installed after Linux system is installed. For program developers, Linux is a good operating platform. In the software package of Linux, there are many kinds of programming languages and development tools, such as GCC, CC, C + +, TCL / TK, Perl, FORTRAN 77 and so on
advantage three: multi-user and multi task
like UNIX system, Linux system is a real multi-user and multi task operating system. Multiple users can own and use the system resources, that is, each user has specific permissions on his own resources (such as files and devices), which do not affect each other. At the same time, multiple users can use the computer system online at the same time. Multitasking is one of the most important characteristics of modern computer. Because Linux system scheles every process to access the processor equally, it can execute multiple programs at the same time, and the running of each program is independent of each other< Advantage 4: reliable security
linux system is an operating system with innate virus immunity, which is rarely attacked by viruses
for an open system, it is not only convenient for users, but also has potential security risks. However, the use of Linux firewall, intrusion detection and security authentication tools, timely repair system vulnerabilities, can greatly improve the security of the Linux system, so that hackers have no opportunity
advantage 5: good stability
the source code of Linux kernel is optimized by standard 32-bit (64 bit on 64 bit CPU), which can ensure the stability of the system. It is because of the stability of Linux that some hosts that install Linux do not shut down all the year round like UNIX
advantage 6: perfect network function
linux has built in a lot of free network server software, database and web development tools, such as Apache, sendmail, vsftp, SSH, mysql, PHP and JSP. In recent years, more and more enterprises have seen these powerful functions of Linux, using Linux as a comprehensive network server
most of the servers are used in all walks of life, such as banking system, servers where you play games, servers of many websites and so on. Small ones, such as Android mobile phones, tablet computers, attendance machines and so on
it can customize the embedded system. When it comes to this direction, it will be boundless. It has its presence in the field of information appliances, instrial control and so on
it all depends on your own cognition. I'm sure you won't be suddenly enlightened when you're a freshman. With the deepening of learning and cognition, I believe you will feel like you're going to see the blue sky one day
the logic of the above pure hand fighting may not be very clear. I hope it can help you.
cloud computing is an inevitable form of information development in the future. At present, it is developing rapidly. It is estimated that it has a market scale of 100 billion. Coupled with the promotion of national policies and the scarcity of enterprise talents, the demand for talents will remain high in 2017. It can be seen that the development prospects of cloud computing and big data related instries are very broad
linux plays an important role in cloud computing. As a stable, efficient, reliable, safe, flexible and extensible open source software, Linux is the first choice for cloud computing architecture and basic application development. It can realize high concurrency, high reliability and extensible private cloud platform applications!
John Levin, chief technology officer of etrade, said: "the cost of using Linux operating system environment is almost 30 times lower than that of running and maintaining UNIX operating system."< In summary, there are the following reasons:
low software cost:
because Linux is an open source operating system, in addition to kernel, many of its system programs and applications are free software, which can be obtained from the Internet for free. So its software cost is very low<
low cost of personnel training:
linux was originally developed by college students, and its functions were enriched and improved by many amateurs, so many students and computer practitioners already have the skills of Linux. And in the low-end PC, PC server can also be used, and the popularity is getting higher and higher. The talent reserve is relatively sufficient, and employers can easily recruit talents in this field
moreover, the computing environment of many enterprise level users is the coexistence of low-end (PC, PC server) and high-end (UNIX server or medium-sized or even mainframe) computers, and the coexistence of computers from different manufacturers (the operating systems involved may include windows, IBM AIX, HP-UNIX, sun Solaris, etc.), This requires the management and maintenance personnel of the computer system to have the skills of multiple operating systems. If Linux is used, because almost all levels of computer platforms support Linux, the technical personnel only need the training of this operating system
low transplantation cost:
linux can run on almost all computer platforms, including PC, PC server, UNIX server, medium-sized computer and large-scale computer, which creates extremely convenient conditions for users to transplant application software between different platforms
for example, with the continuous growth of business, it is very common for enterprise users to upgrade their hardware platforms from small PC servers to high-end UNIX servers, or even more high-end medium-sized computers or mainframes. In the past, because the PC server used Windows operating system, while the UNIX server used the operating system, and the medium-sized and large-scale computers used the special system provided by the manufacturer, the version change of middleware software, the recompilation of application software, and even the modification of application software source code may occur in the software transplantation between different platforms, It is likely to require a large investment of human and material resources, and if the Linux operating system is adopted, the porting between different platforms will be much easier<
low management cost:
similarly, because the computing environment of many enterprise level users is the coexistence of low-end and high-end computers, and computers from different manufacturers coexist, if the operating system is unified into Linux, the consistency of the system can rece the management cost
at the same time, any operating system is not perfect, there are some big or small vulnerabilities or even errors. Because Linux is an open source software, there are many volunteer developers working together on the Internet, which makes the function of Linux perfect and the speed of vulnerability discovery and modification very fast, reces the risk of use and management, thus recing the cost of management
High Performance:
the high performance of Linux is characterized by its low utilization of system resources and its advantages in high-performance computing
the low occupancy rate of 2.3.2 operating system
linux is composed of the kernel and the utilities on it. The kernel is responsible for managing all kinds of computer resources, such as processor and memory, and must ensure the reasonable allocation of resources. When Linux starts, the kernel is called into memory and remains in memory until it is powered off. Similar to most UNIX or UNIX like systems, the kernel of Linux is designed to be as small as possible, leaving a lot of work to utilities outside the kernel. By taking advantage of this feature of Linux, users can customize the number of installed applications when installing Linux. In some cases, users can only install one Linux core
2.3.3 advantages of Linux in high performance computing
high performance computing cluster (HPC cluster) is the most widely used technology in high performance computing fields such as scientific computing and oil exploration. It is an implementation method of parallel computing cluster. In recent years, the new HPC system is rising rapidly, which is to build HPC cluster by using computers running Intel platform of Linux operating system. Due to the use of Linux operating system, general hardware platform and standard network components, the price of each node in the cluster is relatively low, and the expansion is easy to implement, so it can get higher cost performance. Linux can run on PC and PC server, which are traditionally monopolized by Windows operating system. In this field, the emergence of Linux seems like a spring breeze. It not only breaks the monopoly of windows, but also is better than windows operating system in function and performance, and closer to high-end UNIX system. So that low-end users can also enjoy some benefits that only high-end systems can bring
2.3.4 high scalability and maintainability
linux has more advantages because of its scalability and maintainability<
extensibility
standard Linux utilities have a lot of functions, and developers can extend their functions by modifying the source code. Linux can run on a wide range of hardware platforms with similar interfaces. Users can easily transplant applications from one Linux system to another<
maintainability
because the user interface of Linux is very similar to that of various commercial versions of UNIX, almost all it technicians have a good understanding of its operation interface. In addition, because Linux can run on a variety of hardware platforms, technicians familiar with Linux can easily manage applications on a variety of hardware platforms. At present, the user interface of many versions of Linux, such as red flag Linux, is developing in imitation of window, so it is convenient for non it technicians to use<
Open Standard
linux is an operating system developed from open source code, so it has an inherent advantage over other operating systems such as windows and various commercial versions of UNIX. Numerous technicians around the world can help Linux to correct system errors and improve performance, So up to now, Linux has rapidly become a relatively robust operating system, and more and more among all kinds of enterprise key business.
