In fact, in Microsoft's cloud services Azure, nearly one-fourth of the services are provided by the Linux operating system. But we can't make Microsoft's software run on a Linux server. It's really embarrassing.
But this week, Microsoft finally started to make a difference. "Soon we'll be able to run Microsoft's SQL Server database software on a Linux server," said Scott Guthrie, a Microsoft-related head of the blog. Although it's just SQL Server, it's at least a good start.
But Microsoft also says it is likely that only a subset of the SQL Server components will run on Linux. Other components, Microsoft said, also require users to make timely feedback on their use, and then make the appropriate decisions.
Although Microsoft is not as open-source as other companies, it has been a big change for Microsoft to allow it to run a home software on a Linux system. We look forward to Microsoft will be able to provide more support for Linux in the future, this is the demeanor of big companies.
