But are they really? As it turns out, there are a few things on which Oracle and Red Hat do not see eye-to-eye, including file systems and virtualization. The article quotes Wim Coekaerts, Oracle's director of Linux engineering, saying, 'A lot of people think Oracle is doing Enterprise Linux as just basically a rip off of Red Hat but that's not what this is about. ... This is about a support program, and wanting to offer quality Linux OS support to customers that need it. The Linux distribution part is there just to make sure people can get a freely available Linux operating system that is fully supported.'"Read more of this story at Slashdot. http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/ Sun, 21 Mar 2010 12:30:02 +0100 http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/Oracle%27s_Take_On_Red_Hat_Linux.html darthcamaro writes "For nearly three years, Oracle has had its own version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, claiming the two versions are essentially the same thing.

In fact, the company doesn't plan to push this new Linux desktop online; instead, you're more likely to see it pre-installed on Intel's white box partners' PCs. Red Hat will be certifying Global Desktop for Intel's vPro PC architecture. The vPro is Intel's attempt to re-invent the business desktop." http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/ Sun, 21 Mar 2010 12:30:02 +0100 http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/Open_Season_On_Red_Hat-JBoss.html Within the space of a week during October, Oracle announced its Unbreakable Linux support program and Microsoft announced an agreement with Novell to help market SUSE Linux Enterprise. Red Hat is challenged by both of these actions, most likely because it is building a competing middleware stack through its acquisition of JBoss and its Java middleware products. Application development pros that rely on Red Hat Enterprise Linux should be worried about the vendor's new competitors. Red Hat will be hurt by customer defections driven by Oracle's and Microsoft's moves. Of the two threats to Red Hat's growth and future viability, the Microsoft-Novell deal offers customers the highest immediate value, constituting the larger threat to Red Hat's growth and future viability as the leading Linux distribution. But Red Hat must also improve its enterprise support to address all of its new competitive circumstances. http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/ Sun, 21 Mar 2010 12:30:02 +0100 http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/Red_Hat_Dismisses_Threat_Posed_by_Oracle_and_MS.html Rob writes "Red Hat Inc's executive vice president of worldwide sales, Alex Pinchev, has dismissed the impact that Oracle Corp's entry into the Linux support business could have on Red Hat, insisting Oracle does not really know what it is doing.

Bill Hilf, Microsoft's general manager of platform strategy, acknowledged that it is an awkward situation having Microsoft's customers who use Novell's SUSE Linux covered by the covenant not to sue, while those Windows users running Red Hat Linux are not. http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/ Sun, 21 Mar 2010 12:30:02 +0100 http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/Gartner_adviseert_evaluatie_Oracle%27s_Red_Hat_Linux.html Gebruikers van Red Hat Linux moeten de gekloonde uitvoering van Oracle zeker testen en evalueren.

While Oracle claims they'll be able to offer their 'Unbreakable' version of Red Hat's Linux offering for half the price, Red Hat asserts that all the important security and hardware certifications would be invalidated on Oracle's offering. At this point, the only thing that's certain is that Red Hat needs to figure out how to keep their large Oracle Enterprise clients on board or risk becoming a takeover target (undoubtably, with Oracle leading the list of potentially bidders)." http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/ Sun, 21 Mar 2010 12:30:02 +0100 http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/Oracle_specificeert_ondersteuning_Red_Hat_Linux.html Bedrijven met Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 of 4 kunnen het patchen en updaten van hun systeem vanaf nu overlaten aan Oracle. http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/ Sun, 21 Mar 2010 12:30:02 +0100 http://www.jouwnieuws.nl/Ellison_specificeert_Red_Hat_Linux-ondersteuning.html Bedrijven met Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 of 4 kunnen het patchen en updaten van hun systeem vanaf nu overlaten aan Oracle.
