Business Software: Open Source and Cloud Computing
,----[ Quote ]
| There has been a lot of press on cloud computing applications. Cloud
| computing delivers a single application through the browser to thousands of
| customers using a multitenant architecture. On the customer side, it means no
| upfront investment in servers or software licensing; on the provider side,
| costs are low compared to conventional hosting.

Sun's McNealy touts open source, bashes Oracle and IBM
,----[ Quote ]
| Like the man who succeeded him at the job of CEO, Jonathan Schwartz, McNealy
| also loudly beat the open source drum, but in his own inimitable style. Open
| source code is less buggy and more stable than proprietary code and insulates
| companies from the "shelf-life-of-a-banana problem" in which technology
| becomes obsolete 18 months after it was released.

Sun Microsystem's chief executive Jonathan Schwartz pushes open source and free
software as he launches Sun Cloud.
,----[ Quote ]
| “In the technology marketplace - Linux, Java, MySQL, Firefox, Apache,
| Eclipse, NetBeans, OpenOffice.org, OpenSolaris – the same applies: Free is a
| universal price, requires to currency translation, and reaches the longest
| tail of the market.”
|
| By investing heavily in FOSS, Schwartz said, Sun earns the “attention and
| engagement” of people they might otherwise never reach. Developers in turn
| improve on the open source product, anchoring those developers more firmly to
| the open source platform.

| "Forty percent of servers run Windows, 60 percent run Linux," he said. "How
| are we doing? Forty is less than 60, so I don't like it. ... We have some
| work to do."
