""We needed a reliable, stable and supported version of Linux that was tested and production-ready to support millions -- and now billions -- of records per day through our application. Red Hat was that solution," stated Terry Talley, chief technology officer at Acxiom.

"Acxiom's grid infrastructure is designed to improve efficiency, maintain consistency across its systems and logically partition resources to meet client demands. Red Hat Enterprise Linux's certification system lets Acxiom save money by making hardware decisions independent of the operating system, the company said."
