Debian has way less overhead out of the box so in theory it should save a company a decent amount of money. I’m trying to calculate actual numbers and I’m curious if any of you have done any similar calculation.

from which OS? Ubuntu? Rocky/RHEL? Windows Server?
Compared to Arch Linux then yeah you’ll save a ton of money almost guaranteed. But something like Windows? Good luck trying to calculate that.
I wouldn’t even deploy Arch in production as its not designed to be stable.
I mean you’d have to be pretty insane to use Arch on an actual server.
That or a masochist.
I don’t really subscribe to Arch or Debian being better or worse than each other. I encounter issues just as frequently on both. Maybe it’s a little harder to do things in Debian because the repositories don’t update as often but the AUR is where a lot of important stuff is and that’s a pain to deal with too.
Either way it’s better than using Windows.
Mostly Ubuntu. Comes with a ton of extras installed which add storage and ram usage along with additional complexity.
