## Operating system compatibility

We recommend installing OpenSearch on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) or Debian-based Linux distributions that use [systemd](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemd), such as CentOS, Amazon Linux 2, or Ubuntu Long-Term Support (LTS). OpenSearch should work on most Linux distributions, but we only test a handful. We recommend RHEL 7 or 8, CentOS 7 or 8, Amazon Linux 2, or Ubuntu 16.04, 18.04, or 20.04 for any version of OpenSearch. OpenSearch also supports Windows Server 2019.

1. **Configure OpenSearch for your environment.**
- Apply basic settings to OpenSearch and start using it in your environment.

The RPM distribution provides everything you need to run OpenSearch inside Red Hat or Red Hat–based Linux Distributions, such as supported CentOS and RHEL versions, and Amazon Linux 2. If you have your own Java installation and set `JAVA_HOME` in your terminal application, macOS works, as well.
