the Unix environment... Would that be HP/sucks or what? Just went rhu a session to prove custom app+eBusiness Suite runs better on a blade+Linux (RH AS 2.1) than on a Superdome... Not really a HP fan, sorry. More in for Sun or IBM (forget HACMP)...
On the same h/w (intel, of course) Linux+Oracle outperforms Win2k+oracle (same versions oracle, same options installed)
Windoze.. another security hole discovererd... patch it... do yuo want to reboot now? NO, of course I don't want to shutdown!!! I'm running a 24*7 production instance here!
So... Unix is the way to go: scalable (yawn! this has been here before!)
