Come on, Rob. The Internet doesn't run on Linux any more than companies
run on Oracle.
And what runs on phones and appliances could hardly be called operating
systems.
You may have a strange idea of what an operating system is.
Android is based on linux and is considered an operating system. Apple's
IOS is also an operating system. You won't find much else out there on
phones and mobile devices - PalmOS, BlackberryOS, Symbian, etc are long
out of play.
Great lots of Internet servers run linux, but some run FreeBSD or
windoze; all of which are considered operating systems. Juniper, Arista,
ubiquity, and many others in the router/switch arena use either linux or
FreeBSD as their control operating system.
In terms of database systems, Oracle does have the largest share of
corporate use, but only ~33% (followed by mysql, sql server, and
postgresql). Lots of companies effectively -do- "run on oracle".
So yes, Rob is correct.
z!
