| Open source is a concept of free sharing of
| technical information that has been around
| for much longer than most of us would
| imagine. When we think of open source
| today, we usually think of software. As
| wonderful and widely used as open source
| software is, according to Linus Torvalds,
| "the future is open source everything."
| From foods and beverages to scientific and
| health research studies and advanced
| technological innovations, the world has
| turned to open source.

Linux is now Oracle's low-end offering
,----[ Quote ]
| Oracle Corp. has rekindled its Solaris love.
| Sun's Solaris operating system will underlie
| new high-end data center appliances running
| the Oracle software stack. And Oracle
| EnterpriseLinux now becomes the preferred OS
| for lower-end commodity hardware.
|
| By making the Sparc/Solaris tandem the
| foundation of big-iron SMP appliances, the
| company is going back to its roots when Oracle
| and Sun were joined at the hip. Pre-Linux,
| Solaris was the de facto development platform
| for new Oracle software. New Oracle databases
| came out first on Solaris and later on
| everything else.
