== Overview ==
MIRACLE LINUX Corporation, later merged with Cybertrust Japan in 2017, was established in June 2000 by [[Oracle Corporation]] Japan and Nippon Electric Co., Ltd. Originally developed and marketed a Linux distribution for enterprises market that optimized for  [[Oracle Database]] application.

In December 2003, Miracle Linux (Japan) and [[Red Flag Linux|Red Flag]] (China) started a multibyte language-supported Linux distribution project named “[[Asianux]]”. Since then MIRACLE LINUX had been developed in the Asianux project for more than 10 years. After The Asianux project was disbanded in September 2015, MIRACLE LINUX had been developed in Japan by Cybertrust Japan Co., Ltd.  "Asianux" remains part of the MIRACLE LINUX product name.

MIRACLE LINUX is widely used in industrial equipment where long-term supported OS is required. According to a survey by Mick Economic Research Institute in October 2020, MIRACLE LINUX has a 57% market share of the pre-installed Linux distribution of industrial PCs.
