I propose that our company consider implementing Linux for our servers and workstations. There are many excellent reasons to employ Linux as the operating system of choice for our company: Linux is ‘tried and true’; is used by many large companies, such as Google©, Amazon©, Facebook©, and many of the cloud service providers; is less expensive; more reliable and stable; has extensive free community support; uses memory and CPU resources more efficiently; is reasonably easy and quick to install;

Linux Vendors Comparisons DeVry University During my research of Linux vendors, I have narrowed my options to three distinct vendors. I have found Red Hat, Novell, and Ubuntu were three of the best companies worldwide. Each vendor has their advantages and disadvantages. I will address the positive and negative points of each vendor. The main differences between the three vendors that I will discuss are cost, training & support, performance & reliability, and lastly availability

XP to SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop Migration One of the reasons for choosing the SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop as the replacement for Windows XP is that the entire migration process is much less time consuming and complex than with other Linux workstation operating systems due to the YaST2 tool that is included with the SUSE operating system. So the strategy for migrating each system includes a full backup of all user data on each Windows XP system to one of the company network file servers. Next

LINUX vs. WINDOWS The debate on Windows vs. Linux is truly an on going one with no end in site. Regardless how you come at this juncture you are usually a UNIX supporter or a customer of Microsoft OS and products who are grateful for products of Microsoft. We will in the following paragraphs try to compare the advantages and disadvantages of these different systems. We will give a brief description on the cost of these products, what kind of market-share these two systems hold, the availability

The installation will be performed using an ISO image DVD that contains the SUSE installation. The installation process will configure language, keyboard, license, partitioning, time settings, and desktop selection. A graphical interface will be used for end users in order to provide an easier transition from Windows to SUSE. Command line interface configurations will be selected for servers and administrative systems in order to provide better performance (opensSUSE). Users will logon to

Rationale: as described in the data domain section, BJ’s needs to move away from its current situation of data siloes. This can also be prevented by having applications of different domains (ex. ERP and HR) that are able to share data and communicate with each other. Implications: this means that BJ’s will have to define a data format that is as independent from each application as possible, so that it does not need to be converted and/or re-entered in the system (TOGAF, 2006). 3: Business Alignment

Introduction about Linux Linux is an operating system that was initially created as a hobby by a young student, Linus Torvalds, at the University of Helsinki in Finland. Linus had an interest in Minix, a small UNIX system, and decided to develop a system that exceeded the Minix standards. He began his work in 1991 when he released version 0.02 and worked steadily until 1994 when version 1.0 of the Linux Kernel was released. Linux is developed and released under the GNU General Public License and

its competitors. Four technologies we would be discussing about in this research paper are: E-commerce Business Strategies, Enterprise 2.0, Walgreens Health Could and Mobile App. In e-commerce business strategies, it is discussed about Walgreens e-commerce websites and their chain of stores all over United States. Walgreens has adopted Walgreens 2.0, which is an enterprise 2.0 technology adopted by them under their Chief Technology Officer, Tim Theriault. Third technology is

number of items bought by a user and similar products purchased along with other online statistics. The Branch Server boots the Point of Service clients from the local network, registers new client devices at the website, distributes operating system updates to the client devices, and also stores the sales information as a backup in real time simultaneously as the Administration Server. The Point of Service Client is the indirect interaction between customers when they make any purchases at Wal-Mart
