| There is a famous story of the Stone Soup,
| where many free ingredients came together
| to make an amazing finished product. Lest
| you think itâs just a fable, Red Hat and
| Ubuntu do exactly thatâtheyâve combined
| major open source projects such as Linux,
| Gnome, Apache, Firefox, Thunderbird,
| OpenOffice, and MySQL and built major
| businesses from them.

Open source evolving with the cloud
,----[ Quote ]
| One such example is MuleSoftâs new offer of
| Tomcat application server via the GoGrid
| cloud. The product, MuleSoft Cloudcat,
| consists of cloud-based Apache Tomcat on
| GoGrid with commercial support from
| MuleSoft.
|
| Weâre also seeing examples of new open
| source software for the cloud. Weâve
| covered the use of unpaid, community Linux
| in the cloud, but a new cloud-specific
| distribution, CloudLinux, may also have
| some interesting implications, particularly
| for hosters and other service providers.
| CloudLinux, compatible with Red Hat
| Enterprise Linux clone CentOS, is
| commercially backed and supported by a
| company of the same name.

10 Ways that Enterprises use Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| 9. Google Search Appliances - Google builds its
| search appliances on the Linux platform. If
| you're using one in your company, you're using
| Linux. Sure Google uses a special version of
| just about everything for their appliances but
| it's built on the solid stability of Linux.
|
| 8. Monitoring Services - If you're doing any
| network monitoring or system performance
| checking, chances are good that you're using
| Linux to do it. Large companies use commodity
| hardware and free software to do their bidding
| where possible. Projects like Orca make life
| easier for IT professionals who must find and
| deploy tools that are scalable, inexpensive and
| return a lot of bang for the amount of effort
| applied. Orca and Sysstat are absolutely
| indispensable for large networks where you have
| to manage thousands of disparate systems.
|
| 7. Development Platform - Since Linux comes
| standard with so many development tools such as
| Eclipse, C, C++, Mono, python, perl, PHP and
| many, many others; it's no wonder that it's the
| world's most popular development platform. It
| contains thousands of dollars worth of
| development software all free of charge and
| that's good news for developers in all parts of
| the globe.
