Advantages of UNIX

The advantages of UNIX operating system are as follows:

1. UNIX is a reliable multi-user, multi-tasking operating system.

2. UNIX provides very large number of security features.

3. UNIX permits many processes to run in the foreground and in the background at the
same time.

4. UNIX is scalable, flexible, and portable across most major computer processors. It runs
on machines from the largest mainframe to modern laptops. A UNIX enterprise may
consist of several nodes to hundreds of thousands of nodes.

5. UNIX provides exceptional networking capabilities by seamlessly integrating the TCP/IP


protocol with the multi-tasking functions of UNIX.

6. UNIX supports a wide range of user interfaces. The most popular is the least expensive
character-based terminal environment.

7. UNIX supports both traditional multi-user and distributed applications. In a multi-user


environment the application resides on the server and is accessed through a serial
terminal (or PC with terminal emulation software). All information resides on the server.
