| The Helmers project shows that there is 3x the performance at 1/2x the cost
| for those willing to innovate. By no small coincidence, this is what I see
| every day when I visit Red Hat customers who are replacing proprietary
| systems with open source solutions. It still amazes me how much money some
| companies will spend on these proprietary solutions year in and year out
| because they refuse to simply try something new and measure the results.
| Still, necessity is the mother of invention, and as more and more companies
| find themselves needing to change their status quo, I'm sure many of them
| will discover for themselves a whole new price/performance level.

Red Hat out-marathons the pack in financial services

| In financial services, speed is the difference between making money and
| losing money,” said Scott Crenshaw, vice president of Red Hat’s platform
| business unit. “The result is clear: more data, faster data, means better
| trades and better decisions.”
|
| As if that weren’t enough, Crenshaw struck a blow to proprietary
| software. “We were 2.4 times faster than Sun Microsystems,” he crowed,
| comparing Red Hat’s 5.8 million updates with Sun Solaris’ record of 2.4
| million updates.
|
| Go, open source! Guess you should have been here for the Boston Marathon!
