How people look at Linux in the enterprise is evolving. |
Now Linux is in a more critical applications layer, and our research looked at the applications server, focusing on J2EE [Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition]. |
Now there is an admin who is solely responsible for the OS, and nothing above it. There is a separate admin responsible for JDM and nothing in the outside world. This consolidates costs, and allows for more productivity. |
TCO and cost itself was a primary criterion for selecting Linux, but that has now changed. |
