Review: Stratus' fault-tolerant, Red Hat-based server
,----[ Quote
| Now Stratus has introduced the ftServer 4400, running RHEL (Red Hat
| Enterprise Linux) Advanced Server 4.5 x86_64, which is about as standard as
| it gets. This is very good news for anyone who doesn't do Windows and is
| looking to deploy a completely redundant server. Yes, I do mean completely
| redundant.

And the tension that wasn't:
Red Hat, JBoss committers, and the IBM question
,----[ Quote ]
| I continue to believe that the Red Hat/JBoss turmoil is more about Red Hat
| learning to listen and JBoss learning that it needs to move beyond being
| the "bad boy" of open source and application servers. Red Hat, whatever its
| faults, is excellent at execution. I suspect there's a fair amount of
| grousing within the JBoss ranks because Red Hat's culture is a bit more staid
| (read: much more) than JBoss'.

Red Hat Pits Itself Against VMware
,----[ Quote ]
| Red Hat’s new goal is to underpin 50% of the world’s servers by 2015.
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| And since virtualization is projected to take over the world by then that’s a
| lot of Xen virtualization – and there’s no extra cost in it like there is
| with VMware since it’s bundled with RHEL. (Red Hat’s telling people they’ll
| save $20,000-$30,000 a server.)
