IBM: UNIX to Linux Migration Rate Growing
,----[ Quote ]
| Inna Kuznetsova, Director, Linux Strategy, led the meeting attended by IT
| analysts and painted a telling picture of what IBM's Linux business has been
| in recent months: in short, strong and growing. To give an idea of this
| strength, Kuznetsova reported that in the past three years, over 1,800
| customers have migrated from competitive platforms to IBM, and nearly 50
| percent of those IBM wins included Linux.

The Value of Linux Job Skills Rises 50%
,----[ Quote ]
| Many pundits who have seen this data have postulated that the economy is
| actually the source for this rapid rise in valuation, as companies are
| flocking to open source software due to budget constraints. Anecdotally I
| have seen this as well, and our members tell us they are seeing it too.

Linux: We've come a long way

| Despite these efforts, I clearly remember the tough slog Novell had in trying
| to convince IT staffs that Linux was ready for data center primetime. Edge of
| network servers? Sure. But data center? No way. Â
|
| And today Red Hat and others are actively certifying the rising hordes of
| data center Linux specialists. We've come a long, long way in a very short
| time. Though perhaps not this long. Â
