Debian is the most straightforward and compatible option, which greatly simplifies our engineers' tasks.
Debian simplifies tasks for engineers with its compatibility, providing stability, reliability, and cost-efficient performance on Amazon EC2 instances. It offers robust security, compliance awareness, transparency, and predictable updates for production environments. However, improved communication on updates, deterministic software installations, and better software/hardware support are needed. Usability is affected by fragmented documentation and limited scalability due to hardware dependencies, while a reset feature is recommended for restoring initial settings.
