Linux Foundation: Linux is the fastest growing platform

Article title: Linux Foundation: Linux is the fastest growing platform. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

Jim Zemlin, executive director of the Linux Foundation, said Linux applications have grown two to three times faster than other platforms. As enterprises integrate their technical infrastructure during this recession, Linux applications will grow faster. An IDC analyst also expressed the same view. The analyst said in a recent study that Linux will better withstand the recession than its competitors.Jim Zemlin, executive director of the Linux Foundation, spoke at the Linux Collaboration Summit in San Francisco on Wednesday about opportunities for the Linux platform and questions about how the Linux community can work together to overcome challenges and mitigate risks. question. He introduced the significance of the rapid growth of Linux and emphasized the potential of Linux in the current economic environment. He explained that Linux is the fastest growing platform in every aspect of computing.

Zemlin pointed out that the economic recession is forcing enterprises to integrate their own technical infrastructure. Linux is more suitable for a wider environment than its competitors and has lower application costs. Therefore, the market share of Linux is increasing.

IDC analyst Al Gillen seems to support Zemlin's point of view. Gillen recently published a new study predicting that Linux operating systems can better withstand the effects of economic recession than other platforms and will become a powerful competitor of commercial operating systems, and will become a long-term winner in the operating system market.

In his speech, Zemlin also attacked Linux competitors. He demonstrated a recent Microsoft advertisement. This advertisement shows that a cost-conscious consumer buys a Windows computer instead of a more expensive and beautiful Mac computer. He said it was the first time Microsoft tried to compete in price. He said that in the price war, Microsoft cannot beat Linux in the end.
