Newham chooses Microsoft over Linux for cheap support | |
|

| Time: 09:15 EST/14:15 GMT | News Source: VNUNet | Posted By: Brian Kvalheim | ||

The London Borough of Newham has signed a deal with Microsoft which it said will be cheaper to support than migrating its systems to Linux. The deal follows a comparison of the costs and benefits of Microsoft versus Linux - carried out by consultancy Capgemini - which concluded that Newham could reduce support costs by 13.5 per cent, or £3.2m over five years, by using Microsoft products. This is double the £1.6m saving from using Linux. But the agreement is non-exclusive and Richard Steel, Newham's head of ICT, told vnunet.com that there were no specific plans to migrate existing non-Windows systems. | ||
