The answer is Hell No!
Fedora is no where near stable enough and secure enough.

help Fedora. Many companies aren’t really interested in significant rearchitecting core
parts of the service because of Fedora’s rapid pace. Just because it is the newest version
doesn’t mean it has a backwards compatible API. New software also has new bugs, and less
testing.

I’d have a hard time arguing it makes sense for customers running enterprise services with
project lifetimes extending for several years. Making them use Fedora would often result
in companies running EOL versions, leaving a platform with even more security holes.
