Oracle’s Red Hat support wins Yahoo! over
Oracle’s decision to download copies of Red Hat Linux and sell support for it at consistently lower prices than Red Hat seems to be paying off, as the company announced Yahoo! as one of its prominent customers buying support for Red Hat Linux. What CNET article doesn’t mention is that Yahoo!’s core infrastructure runs FreeBSD, so both Oracle and Red Hat are now competing for Yahoo! accounts that are unlikely to list thousands and thousands of servers.
