Fedora (previously called Fedora Core) is an RPM-based Linux distribution, developed by the community-supported Fedora Project and sponsored by Red Hat. It aims to be a complete, general-purpose operating system that contains only free and open source software.[1][2] Fedora is derived from the original Red Hat Linux distribution, and it is intended to replace the consumer distributions of Red Hat Linux aimed towards home users. Help for Fedora comes from the greater community; while Red Hat employs many of the Fedora developers, it does not provide official commercial support and services for the distribution. New releases of Fedora come out every six to eight months.

The Fedora Project was created in late 2003, when Red Hat Linux was discontinued. Red Hat recommended that commercial Red Hat Linux users switch to Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), which continues to be Red Hat's only officially-supported Linux distribution while sponsoring Fedora as a community project and distribution. RHEL branches its releases from versions of Fedora. See the RHEL page for the versions of Fedora and their corresponding RHEL versions. Fedora is meant to be a fast moving distribution with more of the latest and robust software while RHEL is for enterprises which value commercial support, certification and associated services with a longer lifecycle.latest and robust software while RHEL is for enterprises which value commercial support, certification and associated services with a longer lifecycle.
