"As Stephen O'Grady, a RedMonk analyst said in a statement, "The popularity of Ubuntu evidenced by the survey is not surprising to those who cover the Linux market. What was surprising was the breadth of workloads that Ubuntu is servicing. Far from being relegated to a niche role, the distribution is being leveraged for a variety of enterprise tasks, from the mundane to the mission critical."

"The almost 7,000 users who took the survey were also sure that Ubuntu wasn't just capable of doing these jobs; Ubuntu was already great at doing them. 90%+ of them are already using Ubuntu for their mission-critical jobs."
