    Yes but if it's say an Oracle T4 SPARC running Solaris 11 with Oracle fibre HBA (albeit rebadged) in it connected to an Oracle 7120 array with Oracle 11 DB on top, it's Oracle's problem. One vendor, no blame war...

    Costs of course!

        Google run Linux on a massive HPC grid AIUI, which is fine, a node dies, there's another, but not all requirements are the same, BT Spine was almost 100% Solaris on SPARC when I was there 2006 on, latterly they used Linux for some reverse proxies I think - I went back in 2009 - all gone. We can all quote examples for and against.

        By Linux do you mean the proper kernel definition or the multitude of distros like Slitaz, Bharat, Siduction, HandyLinux, Qimo for Kids and Russian Fedora Remix?

          Linux is sh1t. So that would be me who's right then.
