“Candle Corporation, a leading independent software company
specializing in fast, flexible e-business solutions, today
announced its support for IBM’s hardware and software enhancements
and pricing strategy for Linux running on S/390 enterprise servers.
The announcement highlights Candle’s continuing commitment and
leadership in innovative pricing and licensing for S/390
users.”
“The IBM S/390 Integrated Facility for Linux brings
customers the ability to add system capacity to dedicate to Linux
workloads, without increasing charges for IBM S/390 software on the
rest of the server. Candle Corporation has agreed to support
this increased capacity without any additional cost to the user;
there will be no increase to maintenance and licensing fees for
additional capacity dedicated to Linux running native on
S/390.”
“Candle has been a long-time partner in supporting S/390,” said
Steve Wright, director of marketing for Candle’s Enterprise
Computing Group. “We are pleased to be working with IBM to support
Linux in this environment.”
