Asianux is a Linux distribution. It is a joint development between Linux vendors Red Flag Software Co., Ltd. (of China), Miracle Linux Corporation (of Japan- 50.5-percent owned by Oracle Corporation), Haansoft (of South Korea), and from September 2007, VietSoftware (of Vietnam). As with most operating systems, it attempts to provide high stability and scalability, while retaining diverse compatibility.
Asianux is considered as a core component, or basis for a Linux distribution, which is to be released later by the above-mentioned companies as their own distributions with specific features. Asianux 2.0 now provides a basis not only for a server operating system but also desktop uses or as a powerful workstation. This distribution applies a server operating system that is being developed. It is to be localized to Chinese, Japanese and Korean as well as English, and developed throughout the companies' respective countries.
As a result, Asianux is included in distributions: Haansoft Linux Asianux 3.0 Server, Miracle Linux 4.0 Asianux Inside and Red Flag Linux DC 6.0 Asianux inside.[citation needed]
Comparisons have been drawn between Asianux and United Linux, an attempt by SUSE, Turbolinux, Conectiva and the SCO Group to take on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
