MIRACLE LINUX is a commercial Linux distribution in Japan, based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux and developed as well as maintained by Cybertrust Japan Co., Ltd. The MIRACLE LINUX 8.4 version aligns with the compatibility standards of CentOS 8.
Overview
Founded in June 2000 as a joint venture between Oracle Corporation Japan and Nippon Electric Co., Ltd., MIRACLE LINUX Corporation later merged with Cybertrust Japan in 2017. The distribution was originally created to serve enterprise environments, with a particular focus on optimizing performance for Oracle Database systems.
In December 2003, the “Asianux” initiative was launched through collaboration between Miracle Linux (Japan) and Red Flag (China), aiming to produce a Linux distribution supporting multibyte character sets. MIRACLE LINUX participated in this project for more than ten years. After the Asianux alliance dissolved in September 2015, Cybertrust Japan continued the development of MIRACLE LINUX domestically. The brand retains the "Asianux" designation as part of its identity.
MIRACLE LINUX has gained significant traction in industrial machinery sectors where extended operating system support is essential. According to a 2020 study by Mick Economic Research Institute, MIRACLE LINUX accounted for 57% of the market share as the default Linux OS on industrial personal computers.
Following the announcement in December 2020 regarding the cessation of CentOS Linux, MIRACLE LINUX 8.4 was released in October 2021 without any license fees.
