Oracle to offer Linux-based operating system, to steamroll Red Hat
VentureBeat reported this two months ago, but now it is official:
Oracle will offer its own version of Red Hat’s Linux open-source operating system. It is significant because it gives Oracle ownership of its own full software “stack,” a one-stop shop for customers from which Oracle can sell multiple applications. It is also notable because it could kill competitor Red Hat. Here is a summary of the story in today’s Mercury News.
