Linux Adds to Super Computing Dominance: Good News for Linux Users

,----[ Quote ]
| So why do Linux users care? Because the 
| work accomplished by the Super Computer 
| manufacturers  (IBM, HP, Fujitsu, Cray and 
| so on) is poured back into the kernel and 
| ends up helping all users. Just remember 
| that todayâs desktop PC was considered a 
| super computer not that long ago. Advances 
| in multi-core technology driven by super 
| computing requirements of a few years ago 
| are now used by financial services 
| companies in trading applications to power 
| their business.

Drupal Founder Critical of SaaS and its Proprietary Nature

,----[ Quote ]
| Drupal's founder is calling for open
| source in the enterprise and in the cloud.
| This should be no surprise, coming from
| someone like Dries Buytaert. But it is
| still interesting, considering the source
| and the point he makes about the actual
| lack of open source in cloud computing.
|
| [...]
|
| Dries:
|
| "....they might allow you to export your
| data, but they usually don't allow you to
| export their underlying code. While a lot
| of these services might be built on Open
| Source components, they have a lot more in
| common with proprietary software vendors
| than Open Source projects or companies."
|
| It's in Dries view that this model can be
| disrupted by open source. For example, he
| says, the Drupal Gardens community
| improves the overall platform by
| contributing to it. The goal, as Dries
| says, is for people to export their Drupal
| Garden site in their entirety " the code,
| the theme and data -- and move the
| platform to any Drupal hosting
| environment."
