Currently I use Discourse on Ubuntu and it runs perfectly with super easy installation.
We are planning on switching our main server to a CloudLinuxOS based server and I want to make sure Discourse works on CloudLinuxOS easily and smoothly.
Has anyone deployed it previously?
Any help/hints would be highly appreciated.

While I personally haven’t deployed anything on cloudlinux, I’m fairly confident that any OS that can run docker properly shouldn’t have any troubles running discourse.

It’s probably work. Discourse runs inside of docker, so if you can get docker to work it’ll be fine. If your engineers care deeply about using that Linux then I’m sure they can get docker to work.
