If Linux were a person, he would be growing, fast. Taught by the best. Gaining wisdom beyond his years. Able to speak every language. He would be bringing people together. He would be in business and commerce. He would be a savvy nine-year-old boy improving the way the world works.
Linux is a milestone in the history of computing - an open source operating system that offers unprecedented integration. In the on demand era, this is a key business advantage. With Linux, companies can get all the diverse systems within and beyond their enterprise working together seamlessly. They can boost collaboration and optimise responsiveness. And that means their business runs more reliably, more productively, and more cost-efficiently.
Linux is universal
Linux is not owned by a single company or private enterprise; therefore, it is open and accessible to everyone. And it is constantly being enriched by thousands of programmers all over the world. As a company grows over time, Linux evolves with it. This flexibility is what is making Linux so popular.
Linux is working
Companies large and small are integrating Linux into the day-to-day fibre of global business. Linux is touching everything, from the digital world of film animation, Web commerce and online auctions to more traditional areas like government and financial services. And it is growing. Every year, over 25,000 new Linux programmers graduate from major universities, making it the single most popular programming environment in universities today.
Linux has brought open standards along with maximum availability and flexibility to e-business solutions. Now the entire IBM ® product line has been Linux enabled to provide the Linux e-business advantage to your business.
