Why CIOs are saying yes to open source software
,----[ Quote ]
| Nicholas Bellenberg, IT director at Hachette
| Filipacchi, said all of the publishing house's
| web development is based on open source
| technology: "I can't imagine why anyone would
| use anything different! There's no point in
| spending a fortune on proprietary systems or
| programming frameworks that don't move with the
| times. And yes, you can scale it big - Facebook
| does."

After Vista flop, Indian CIOs not open to new Windows
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft, the worldâs largest software maker, may be throwing parties for
| potential customers to test its Windows 7 operating system to be launched in
| October, but many chief information officers (CIOs) are not joining the party
| yet.
|
| Reliance Communications, Asian Paints, Essar Group and some other companies will
| wait to see how efficient the new product of Microsoft is before shifting to it,
| after the Vista failed to deliver on the promise of a faster and sleeker
| operating system.
|
| âIâm in no hurry to rip and replace my existing OS (operating system),ââ said
| Manish Choksi, chief information officer (CIO) at Asian Paints which has 2,500
| desktops and about 100 servers.
