I've been tracking the Top500 Supercomputer List with a particular eye on Linux for some time now, highlighting how Linux continues to power the majority of the world's fastest supercomputing systems ...
Much of the technical differences between GNOME and Unity center on their designated use, noted Jay Lyman, senior analyst for enterprise software at the 451 Group. For example, GNOME is more comprehensive in the applications and functions it presents to the user. Unity is lighter weight and more focused on a forward path to touchscreen use.
There have been many changes in the market and technology since Citrix acquired XenSource and a major stewardship stake in the Xen open-source hypervisor four years ago ...
Having covered Linux in the enterprise and business arenas for more than 10 years, I've seen some dramatic changes in the way the open source operating system is developed and used. However, never has there been as much change in the Linux landscape and market as right now, given the impact of cloud computing, devops (the confluence of application development and deployment), and open source software's maturity. The options for users and customers, as well as the challenges and opportunities for vendors, are now very different.
Given the amount of hype currently swirling about cloud computing, it brings to mind a legitimate question -- is this just hype? Is there really something to this cloud computing, or is it just another bubble that is sure to burst? The answer, quite simply, is no, there is not a cloud computing bubble or burst taking shape. Here's why ...
"On the plus side, as the report points out, this analysis represents only the first year that U.S. agencies have been operating under directives to increase consideration of open source options, and still some agencies, such as the DoD and DoE, earn high marks," Jay Lyman, senior industry analyst at 451 Group, told the E-Commerce Times.
The streamlined interface and window views are good for OpenERP's main user base -- small and medium sized businesses, said Jay Lyman, senior analyst for enterprise software at the 451 Group. "They are also doing similar things with the menus for different users, based on the...
"Governments remain eager to embrace open source software, and are no doubt already doing so in many cases, but there is still a great demand for more commercial backing," said Jay Lyman, an industry analyst with 451 Group, in a blog report on the GOSCON conference. "Potentia...
Indeed, "regardless of its motivations and objectives, Oracle certainly didn't time this very well, with its statements in support of Linux and open source at LinuxCon just days before now being called into question, the official end of OpenSolaris and of course, the Java lawsuit," Jay Lyman, open source analyst with the 451 Group, told LinuxInsider...
Indeed, "this is a big move for Rackspace, which is open sourcing significant parts of its own cloud computing infrastructure and technology," 451 Group analyst Jay Lyman pointed out. "It's also big for open source software, which is used fairly heavily among most cloud computing technology and service providers, but which does not typically get highlighted or mentioned that much."
App Inventor for Android "accentuates Google's more open approach to smartphone code and now to consumers, many of which I believe do indeed want to be creators of mobile software in addition to being consumers of it," 451 Group analyst Jay Lyman told LinuxInsider While there ...
"I think Cisco's use of Android for the Cius is indicative of Android's broad interest and use across smartphones, tablets and other devices, including those in the enterprise, where the Cius and Cisco are most likely to have an impact," 451 Group analyst Jay Lyman told LinuxInsider. "There will most certainly be enterprise iPad use, but I do think we will continue to see Android aimed at a range of more specific users and use cases."
Dell also has a history of being "among the first to support 'alternative' operating systems, such as Ubuntu, on mainstream desktop PCs and laptops," 451 Group analyst Jay Lyman pointed out. "The company likes to keep its options and its future open to emergent and even obscure technologies that may hold more promise down the road."
The topic of Ransbotham's study "centers on the longstanding debate of security through obscurity -- that is, code is proprietary and closed to public view -- versus theadvantage of many eyes on the code when it is open source and available for review," Jay Lyman, an analyst for open source with The 451 Group, told LinuxInsider...
"Obviously, Google -- like many others -- would like to generate the same kind of success with a software store as Apple has with iTunes," Jay Lyman, analyst for open source with the 451 Group, told LinuxInsider Apple's App Store lets users of the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad ...
"The Firefox developers seem to be focused on the right things: speed, openness, flexibility and user experience," Jay Lyman, an analyst for open source with the 451 Group, told TechNewsWorld. "This marks a rather dramatic change in open source software development that, over several years of evolution, has transformed the user from an afterthought to the forefront of development and innovation efforts."
"This type of OS is interesting, given the increased use and capabilities of Web application development, and also amid the debate over native versus Web or cloud-based applications as the mobile device market grows," Jay Lyman, an analyst for open source with the 451 Group, told LinuxInsider...
"It's not surprising to see these companies coming out with something like this, given most are members of various Linux consortia, including The Linux Foundation and LiMo Foundation, and they have put significant effort, resources and strategy into leveraging Linux," 451 Group analyst Jay Lyman pointed out...
Indeed, "the contributions being made by the WhiteHouse.gov developers and support staff are significant, meaningful pieces of code for improved scalability, email outreach and accessibility that can benefit any and all Drupal users," Jay Lyman, analyst for enterprise software with the 451 Group, told LinuxInsider...
"I think it is a stretch to say that IBM has turned on open source or betrayed open source," 451 Group analyst Jay Lyman told LinuxInsider "It may have, mistakenly or otherwise, cited some software patents that were actually included in a previous pledge whereby it stated it w...
