Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Hewlett-Packard has introduced a new range of hardware, software and services designed to simplify the integration of open source and commercial software.
Designed to accelerate the adoption of open source software in data
centres, the new HP Open Source Integrated Portfolio (OSIP) is claimed
to provide customers with an easy way to deploy a wide range of open
source, commercial and hybrid applications across Linux, Windows and
HP-UX 11i environments.
HP says the new offerings bring standardised, heterogeneous open source
offerings to a broader market using an approach based on a
service-oriented architecture.
“There’s a growing demand for integrated open source and commercial
solutions on multiple operating systems, and customers want one trusted
source of accountability,” said Christine Martino, vice president, Open
Source and Linux Organisation, HP. “The HP Open Source Integrated
Portfolio provides that confidence to companies making open source a
part of their overall strategy to be more adaptive in the marketplace.”
“HP was an early proponent of identifying and supporting layered open
source software that complements the Linux operating system. The
company’s past efforts have empowered customers to deploy these
technologies with confidence,” said Al Gillen, research director,
System Software, IDC. “The announcement of the HP Open Source
Integrated Portfolio extends the richness and breadth of the company’s
open source solutions and delivers a key building block for today’s IT
customer.”
