“TurboLinux previews its new high availability clustering Web
server this week at the Linux World Conference in San Jose, pushing
the viability of high-end open-source solutions for
e-commerce.”
“The TurboCluster Server, which has been ported to the Alpha
Processor, is a “breakthrough for Linux,” stated Cliff Miller, CEO
of TurboLinux. “More and more of our customers are looking to
migrate their mission-critical e-commerce sites to Linux and
clustering was a necessary requirement…”
“While Linux systems are being used for some enterprise
applications such as print, file and Web servers, they have not
penetrated the higher-end computing environments such as
high-traffic e-commerce web sites and other businesses using
Web-based transactions,” the company said this week. TurboCluster
may help to change that, however.”
