Cos switch to open source technologies to cut costs
,----[ Quote ]
| Indian enterprises, private and public, are opening up to saving costs by
| using free for use technologies. Governments, institutions and companies are
| increasingly turning to open source technologies to turn frugal as these
| softwares, hardwares and applications are often free but also to avoid
| falling into the trap of a proprietary IT environment.

| “We invested only about Rs 8 lakh (Rs 4 lakh for a Dell server). We will
| incur a saving of Rs 50 lakh, because of a migration from a proprietary
| software to an open ERP solution running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
| on Dell X86 servers,” says Mankotia.

Dvorak Likes Linux

| Every so often I take a stab at Linux, to see exactly what I like and do not
| like about the OS. Many of its problems, for me, stem from its inability to
| run on my overloaded hardware, or the occasional driver that makes the OS
| impossible to use without hand-tweaking something or other. That said, I
| seriously like the Ubuntu 8.10 implementation and will now install it
| permanently on my latest machines. It's a winner.
