“Linux, long overlooked by IT organizations and trivialized by
competitors, is wielding new clout as an enterprise operating
system.
“Linux vendors are adding enterprise features to the
open-source software, including network configuration tools and
failover clustering. Sun Microsystems, meanwhile, is paying
closer attention to Linux. Sun plans to take a page from the Linux
community’s playbook and make the source code of its competing
Solaris OS available to the public.”
