Linux Inside - from Desktops to Mainframes to CloudsAdam Jollans, IBM
Vsebina je na voljo samo v anglekem jeziku.
Our world is changing technologically at an astonishingly fast rate. Billions of computer chips are being embedded in devices from mobile phones to traffic sensors. All these new devices are being linked together along with the computers already connected around the world through the Internet. And this is generating an explosion of potentially useful information – if only we could make sense of it all.
Linux is inside many of innovations now transforming our planet. Its cross-platform support enables it to run on the widest range of hardware – from GPS device to supercomputer. Its open source approach enables it to be customised for specialised tasks, such as real-time computing. And its flexibility and virtualisation affinity positions it ready to be the leading operating system for the cloud.
In this presentation, IBM's Linux Strategy Manager, Adam Jollans, will discuss what's special about Linux, why Linux is a catalyst for a smarter planet, and the key role that Linux is expected to play in the future. He will focus especially on three areas:
- Linux on the desktop – how open standards, netbooks and cross-platform applications are bringing choice and freedom to the desktop
- Linux on the mainframe – why a computer invented nearly 50 years ago and a revolutionary operating system were made for each other
- Linux in the clouds – how Linux is at the heart of many recent successful cloud implementations, and why it's poised to play an even more central role in cloud computing
The presentation will be illustrated with case studies of customers successfully using Linux inside – from desktops to mainframes to clouds. |
