Radicality can change the way IT is handled
Filed in archive Consultancy on August 9, 2007
You probably remember how angry certain parties were when Oracle announced their unbreakable linux, right ? Weren't we sure that Linux, running on intel hardware would conquer the world and beat all other os's to it's own game ?
Well, things are slightly different today. Linux runs on almost anything that has a processor, watches included, and is slowly getting more and more promising. Although I do not believe in virtualization, I do believe that the future of linux partly lies in building alternative networks. We all know it's possible and very reliable, but why doesn't anyone offer a linux cluster built on Xboxes or PSP's as a professional solution to enterprises ?
The answer is not in Linux. The answer lies in people. They simply don't have the guts to be different. I think you could find clients prepared to accept radical solutions, as long as there is a business case behind it for support.
