One more Friday I leave you another great book, also by Xabier Genestós but this time bringing the Linux world closer to companies, where we will see ideas on how to apply an Open Source world to our businesses, because commercial is not always the best, And if you're scared, Start with non-core services or services that can't affect your company's production to gain confidence and see how normally, are the best solutions.

The book LinuXe – Linux for Businesses is the fourth in Xavier Genestós's book collection. On this occasion, the topic it covers is Linux focused on businesses. The idea of the book is that by the end of reading it we acquire the necessary knowledge to install, configure and manage a Linux server in a business environment. On many occasions we set up services on Linux in our infrastructure and due to a lack of deep knowledge about this operating system, our Linux servers could run much better and use fewer resources.

First, we will find an analysis of all the distributions that exist and which ones are a good idea to install in a business, which ones are not and why.

Después trata sobre la instalación del sistema operativo, todos aquellos elementos que hemos de tener en cuenta como: File Systems, paquetería, Drivers, swap, etc. Once the operating system is installed, se explica todas aquellas configuraciones sobre el mismo con el fin de obtener un mayor rendimiento y evitar posibles problemas: selinux, Boot, Limits, IPv6, firewall, configuración del repositorio, backups, etc.

Después de la instalación y post instalación del SO, podemos ver todos aquellos puntos fundamentales para aprender a administrar y configurar todo tipo de servicios: sistema de boot, administración de ficheros, Links, redirectores, editores, montaje de dispositivos, variables de entorno, gestión de paquetes, control de servicios, crons, net, usuarios y permisos, Processes, Sessions, harbours, etc.

Todo ello explicado con ejemplos que podremos reproducir de forma rápida y sencilla.

Finalmente el libro trata de utilidades tipo: rsync, tcpdump, nmap, logwatch, Iperf, strace, netcat, etc., as well as maintenance tasks on the OS.
