Great case story, care to share the link. I'll be migrating a huge banking company to opensource so im looking for case studies involving companies as big as this one.
Have a contract with a big Telco few months ago and a Bank currently... both are not on the Phil. though. Here are some insights on some Linux strategy: - All are RHEL OS - Hardware is either HP/IBM Blades or standard X86 rackables HW. - Apache/postfix/cyrus/java are popular - Vmware ESX on dev/uat on one box to save money - Middleware is proprietary though... Weblogic or Websphere. - Backend database is also proprietary... no surprise, it's Oracle. As you can see, the first tier is opensource on both software and application. Middle Tier and Back end tier is proprietary solution except the OS. You can use opensource software on the middle/back tier, but you are on your own unless you have a support from a reputable company as a security blanket. -- regards, Andre | http://www.varon.ca _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
