Red Hat is also interestingly getting chummy with Sun Microsystems (JAVA) on enterprise Java support, now that Java is open source.What’s more, through its burgeoning embrace of virtualization options, Red Hat plans to aggressively support Windows instances on Red Hat, so that any Windows 32 bit applications (from across many versions of Windows) can be supported virtually on RHEL. The leading Linux supplier also plans to work inside of Microsoft’s (NASDAQ:MSFT) pending Viridian hypervisor, which is based on the Linux based Xen hypervisor (at least for now).On a large business level, Red Hat is seeking to bring more open source deployment options to global developers of nearly every ilk. For operators, Red Hat hopes to simplify their infrastructures while offering strong performance and lower total costs through higher utilization and capacity management on top of lower licensing and hardware costs.
