“Simplified, a software infrastructure company, today
announced that it has successfully completed the first
customer-site deployment of Red Hat Linux on the Simplified Open
Services Platform.

The carrier-class platform has been installed on servers powered
by Intel processors to control multivendor switch gear in a retail
services and wholesale telecom network environment. The deployment
was part of an ongoing network expansion plan to enable Phonetime
Inc. to better manage its rapidly growing traffic demands.

Phonetime Inc. is confident that the deployment of the
Simplified Open Services Platform will provide capital savings when
compared to server hardware costs on Unix-based servers.”
