Oracle has realized first-hand the benefit of lower IT costs from using Linux in a grid computing infrastructure. Oracle On Demand, Oracle’s outsourcing business, runs on Linux and we run our Application Demo Systems and Technology Demo Systems, which consist of several hundred servers, on Linux. These systems are utilized by Oracle’s worldwide sales organization to provide Oracle product demonstrations to customers and prospects. In addition, several of our Global IT systems are now running on Linux. With more than 9,000 developers using a Linux infrastructure to do product development, Oracle boasts one of the world’s largest commercial Linux development organizations.
