Microsoft opens open source subsidiary Red Hat cautiously optimistic

Learn about Linux, please refer to the book "Linux should Learn"

Microsoft made a statement last week to set up an open source technology subsidiary, and it is learnt that the new company will be president of the company by Microsoft executive Jean Paoli The company will gradually promote and establish an interoperability strategy team in the development. The new company wants to promote the development of open source communities and standards, as well as bridging Microsoft and non-Microsoft technologies. In response, Red Hat today issued a cautious and optimistic statement: First, we welcome Microsoft's announcement last week to set up a wholly owned subsidiary of Microsoft's open technology to drive open source interoperability, open standards and open source communities. 1. Consumers and developers will be the open source biggest winner Open source and open standards can give consumers and developers a lot of freedom, interoperability of operations will also lead to the emergence of more possibilities. In an open and beautiful world like this, we expect Microsoft to have more help and change for the open source community, and this also offers many options for consumers. 2. The power of open source is rising. The power of open source is not to be underestimated. The 10 anniversary of the advent of Linux will also come, and through our bitter journey, you will find that despite all the objections, we now see Microsoft, the world's leading technology company, focusing on open source and using open source software as an innovation strategy. At the same time some open source new members are also surprising, because many of them are seriously involved in open source projects. 3. Open source is a fundamental shift It is not easy to make a compelling and committed open source and open source standard, which is not the case when the consortium announces its participation one or two times to succeed. It is a fundamental shift to a company that is truly open to commitment, and that open source will become part of the company's culture. Over the years, Red Hat has helped many consumers and partners fully understand this concept. Finally, we are grateful to those technical supporters who have made outstanding contributions to open source, and we believe that the open source community will be better tomorrow. Finally: With the above statement, we can see that Red Hat has doubts about Microsoft's optimism to set up an open technology subsidiary because it does not rely on one or two of inputs to achieve the achievement, and the commitment to open source means that this is a cultural and corporate philosophy of change. In any case, we believe that Microsoft's establishment of an open technology subsidiary will help and change the open source community in some way.
