| Traditionally, network equipment companies have provided this through 
| proprietary architectures, but they have been moving to Linux and open source 
| solutions over the past few years.

Carrier Grade Linux 4.0 - Raising the bar

,----[ Quote ]
| Standards-based technologies are rapidly being adopted by the
| telecommunications industry, and for good reason. Using standards-based
| solutions allows telecom equipment manufacturers (TEMs) and network equipment
| providers (NEPs) to use commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware and software
| systems across multiple network elements - speeding time-to-market, saving
| money, and freeing up key resources to focus on competitive differentiation.
