Weather Bureau uses Linux to cut VM licensing
,----[ Quote ]
| The Bureau of Meteorology claims to have
| saved considerable sums on software
| licensing by embracing open source software
| during a server virtualisation drive.
|
| When the Bureau of Meteorology shifted to
| using server virtualisation, one major
| benefit for scientists was the ability to
| deploy individual servers for specialised
| processing tasks.
