In one of the more complex examples of "co-opetition" in the computer industry, Microsoft will pay Novell a net amount of US$308 million to market and distribute its competitor's product.
Novell is readying two major product launches meant to make its open-source software more palatable to corporate customers.
Novell shone the spotlight on its new version flagship Linux product this week, touting a significant new feature to let a server run multiple operating systems simultaneously and thereby be used more efficiently.
Novell on Tuesday named Jeffrey Jaffe as its executive vice president and chief technology officer.
Novell announced a plan on Thursday to repurchase as much as US$200 million worth of its own stock over the next year, a move that dovetails with recent, loud requests for financial changes at the software company.
Many network administrators new to Linux find it hard to transition from a point-and-click security configuration interface to one based on editing complicated and hard-to-locate text files. Here are seven easy things administrators can and should do to make their Linux server more secure and significantly reduce the risk they face.
CEO Jack Messman says Novell used to have trouble getting noticed. A little penguin changed all that. Meanwhile, he maps out how the company is gaining on Red Hat.
