Oracle to support Red Hat Linux

October 27, 2006 · Leave a Comment

It came from Mr.Ellison, it’s official that Oracle will provide support for Red Hat at a lower price that what Red Hat provides. Well, not so good news for Red Hat, whose move to acquire JBoss earlier this year to get into the application server stack –hence competing directly with Oracle –might’ve prompted the giant, who was an early investor of Red Hat, and whose products, 45% of them run on Red Hat Linux– to make this move, although it was played down by Ellison as purely a move to drive the adoption of Linux. For better or worse, at least Linux is becoming hotter in the marketplace.

Check out the following responds from Red Hat to Oracle’s “Unbreakable Linux 2.0″ tagged offering. Simply “Unfakeable”. Sweet :)

iPhone is knocking on the door!

That’s according to Red Herring’s report on the highly anticipated Apple’s iPhone.  Very exciting, and I’m hoping that this is for real!!  It would be awesome to have an integrated device as cool as iPod.  After all, with an already cluttered market, it’s all about usability and user-interface.
