“NCR Corporation today announced a new service focused on
software support, management, and customization of the Red Hat
Linux operating system.”
“Businesses running applications on Red Hat Linux now have
access to high availability support services from NCR’s Worldwide
Customer Services group. NCR now has over 20 years of support
experience with the Unix and Windows operating systems, and
supports multiple hardware vendor platforms. This new offer extends
NCR’s operating system support capabilities to include Red Hat
Linux along with NCR MP-RAS, Sun Solaris, SCO, Windows NT, and
Windows 2000.”
“Although Linux is a product that reverses standard practices in
software development, many elements of the service business are
just the same when it comes to Linux software support,” said Tony
Adams, senior analyst at Gartner in April 2000.”
