En olisi koskaan voinut uskoa, että suuren laman puristuksessa vuodesta 2009 näyttää tulevan suuri käänteentekijä. Linux ei lisää merkitystään suinkaan ja etupäässä kotikoneenkäyttäjien keskuudessa (vaikka siinäkin suhteellista kasvua on mutta se on vielä vaatimatonta). TODELLINEN KASVU TULEE BUSINESS-ELÄMÄSTÄ- ETEENKIN PALVELINPUOLELTA. RAHAA TULEE TODELLISISTA RAHAFIRMOISTA -MM. FINANSSITAVARATALOISTA.
-RedHat tekee rahaa
-Novel on alkanut tehdä rahaa
-Sun, joka rypee vaikeuksissa on alkanut tehdä rahaa opensource-projekteillaan.
-VMWare
-Cisco jne...
Ne kaikki toimivat busineksessaan hyvin pitkälti Linux-platformilla. Laman voittaja näyttää olevan Linux/Open Source-yhtiöt
---------------------
"Linux is a terrific example of open source in practice because of this. In fact, Linux has been chosen as the platform upon which VMWare’s ESX server is built, as well as products by Cisco.
Nevertheless, business users need more than just a bare metal operating system. Here’s where the money comes into it, and how a company like Red Hat – who give away all their source code – manage to be profitable.
The reason a business should pay for an enterprise Linux has to include as one of its chief reasons that vendor support is available. You will not be left alone. You won’t have to deal with hundreds of Google results that are simply others asking the same questions with no result, nor the possible flame-fests containing in mailing lists and Usenet groups.
There are other reasons. Enterprise Linux distributions will come with, sometimes proprietary, packages that support high availability and redundancy, like clustering, greater RAID capabilities, stronger alerting and management and other items.
So, let’s take a closer look at the leading contenders: Novell SUSE, Red Hat, CentOS, Ubuntu Server and Oracle’s unbreakable Linux!"
