Instant WebKiosk and [[Webconverger]] are browser-based Linux distributions often used in web [[Interactive kiosk|kiosks]] and [[digital signage]]. Thinstation is a minimalist distribution designed for [[thin client]]s. [[Rocks Cluster Distribution]] is tailored for [[HPCC|high-performance computing clusters]].

There are general-purpose Linux distributions that target a specific audience, such as users of a specific language or geographical area. Such examples include [[Ubuntu Kylin]] for Chinese language users and BlankOn targeted at Indonesians. Profession-specific distributions include [[Ubuntu Studio]] for media creation and [[DNALinux]] for [[bioinformatics]]. There is also a Muslim-oriented distribution of the name [[Sabily]] that consequently also provides some Islamic tools. Certain organizations use slightly specialized Linux distributions internally, including [[GendBuntu]] used by the French [[National Gendarmerie]], [[Goobuntu]] used internally by Google, and [[Astra Linux]] developed specifically for the Russian army.
