The use of Linux Server in the business arena has shown new life, due to the scalability and stability of the system and the support it has for other operations as well as the stability of the system and can breathe new life to old systems that no longer are functioning properly with Window applications. Another benefit of Linux is that it is open source and gives each business has the ability to structure or tailor the code to their specific applications. Linux also is not weighted down with license fees or restrictions. Linux overall is a system that is community supported and based not corporation based, which makes the help and support easier to obtain in a matter of minutes and not hours based upon the working hours of a major corporation such as Microsoft. And as all know, 99.99999% of issues always happen or are discovered during the off hours of work. With Linux being run as a server, it can be run without the video requirements that are needed with GUI interfaces. In this aspect, energy can be saved due to the processor not having to work overtime to refresh the pages for every GUI change. Also with Linux, you are not restricted to wait on Microsoft for bug fixes or patches for vulnerabilities. A corporate business can hire in-house Linux programmers, code writers, security personnel and administrators to handle the specific needs of the company, and not rely on outside sources for the support that they are in need of. To maintain stability in a Linux server environment, one does not need to periodically reboot system to flush out old cache to assist the system to run smoother and faster, nor does it suffer from CPU freezes nor slow down overtime due to memory leaks. Linux will run basically till the hardware itself fails completely before it becomes unstable. It is one way, in this sense, for either small or large businesses to save major income by having Linux run server applications for them. Linux security offers one of the best and strongest security strong points when referring to operating systems. When a point of attack has been identified, the fix can either be done by the corporation or someone in the Linux community has devised a fix in hours, and not days. With the advent of “Smartphones” and the uptick in use for personal use and web browsing, Linux based systems are more easily integrated into this environment. With more and newer applications being devised, mostly built on a Unix/Linux base, a Linux server base would ensure that all services will be able to adapt and easily use the databases that are being supplied from the Linux data code. For companies that are dreading the advent of hardware upgrade, Linux based software gives them the grace period to replace old outdated hardware. The reason being is that Linux can run on most all 32bit and 64bit systems, some 5-15 years old, and still offer the reliability of new systems. As stated before, Linux can stay up and running 24 hours a day, 365 days a year with little or no slow down and no crashes. With Linux being an open source code, it gives corporations the strong ability to be able to modify code to fit their needs and for their business applications. This also gives the company the ability to be able to self-monitor the changes made to their database, or OS as needed to hinder outside nefarious forces that want their information. Hackers are the main reason Linux should be used do to the corporation being in charge of their version of the source code and be more easily made aware an outside force trying to change or access data that are not authorized to do so. When Linux server is being used as the backbone of a corporations web server environment, and they have a lot of applications that are Windows based, they need not worry due to Linux being highly compatible with all .Net framework applications and supports HTTP, FTP, DNS, Filesharing, SSH among other web applications. Another major benefit of having Linux as a backbone for the server environment is its ability to support almost all other mainframe applications.
