Microsoft and Linux distributor Xandros announced on Monday a technical and legal collaboration, the latest step in the software giant's ongoing program to partner with open-source companies.
The popularity of OpenOffice, the open source productivity suite, will be key to the financial success of Novell, said company president and CEO, Ron Hovsepian, who hopes to be a 'custodian' between the open source community and the commercial world. Also: Watch the videos.
Software giant Novell overnight launched an open beta, or testing, version of its GroupWise collaboration software, saying the software would combine traditional collaboration functionality with updated Web 2.0-style additions.
Software company Novell has appointed former Oracle and Informix executive Alan Robinson to be its new managing director for Australia and New Zealand.
Novell has released the last public version of OpenSuse 11.0 for testing -- but significant problems still need to be ironed out before the software's final release later this month.
It has competed hard with the likes of Microsoft and IBM, but over the years Novell has remained a smaller player than either of its two main rivals. CTO Jeff Jaffe tells what Novell has up its sleeve to bring the company up to speed: Fossa, an open source project named after the Madagascan relative of the Mongoose.
IT pros who manage small business networks have to come up with unique solutions, such as deciding whether Linux is a viable solution and which collaboration software is better.
The idea of getting a robust, scalable operating system for free hasn't clicked with many enterprises -- until now.
The longtime rivals make nice with a plan to help businesses use the open-source operating system along with Windows. Red Hat, meanwhile, moved quickly to pour cold water on the partnership.
A day after the networking-software maker said it had bought Linux company Ximian, Novell executives say it's likely that their company's own OS will go fallow in favour of Linux.
