Linux Migrations                                                                                                                    
IBT maintains extensive experience with migrating clients to RedHat Linux. Linux is one of the most prominent examples of open source software and is predominantly known for server applications but is also installed on a wide variety of hardware platforms ranging from desktops and laptops to mobile phones and supercomputers. IBT has undertaken and successfully implemented numerous RedHat Linux server migrations and we urge you to contact us to discover the benefits of Linux.

Advantages of Linux

• Low Cost
  You don’t need to spend time and money to obtain additional licenses since Linux and much of its software come with the GNU General Public License. Software licenses by other vendors typically are only allowed to be installed on a single computer, whereas a Linux distribution can be installed on any number of computers. Additionally, there are large repositories from which you can freely download high quality software for almost any task.
  

• Eliminate barriers to adoption
  Red Hat Enterprise Linux solutions provide the easy, no-risk path to open source cost savings. Use commodity hardware. Interoperate easily with existing UNIX and Windows infrastructure. Deploy applications you know and trust. Reduce system administration costs through high server/admin ratios and desktop-to-mainframe consistency.
  

• Eliminate economic constraints
  Basing your solution on open source technologies wherever practical - from the virtualization hypervisor to the SOA middleware to the end user application - guarantees you'll make the most of your IT budget. Despite what vendors of single solutions tell you about their product’s cost - it’s the overall total cost that matters. And open source solutions offer lower total costs:
  

  • Lower capital expense and operational expense

  • Elimination of vendor lock-in - puts the customer in control.
  • Proven superior product quality - better security, higher performance
  • Technology leadership - driven by industry-wide collaboration
  • Flexibility - deploy what you need, when you need, how you need it
    

• Broadest open source ecosystem
  Customers using new deployment paradigms, including virtualization, need the confidence they can deploy on the widest range of hardware and applications - now and in the future. Red Hat’s open source development brings you the world's largest open source ecosystem of certified hardware and software.
