Interview: Martin Taylor, Microsoft's Linux expert | |

We spend time trying to educate customers in the marketplace when we think we've got a pretty good story to tell. Then I've got a technical team. I've hired quite a few people from the Linux open source world to run a research and development centre. Then we bring consultants from the Linux open source space to help us build solutions. We've got every Linux distro running; about 120 servers all with varying degrees of open source stacks on them. What we do there is help our product groups have line-of-sight when they need to know things about Linux. Our developers have been heads down on Microsoft for years and they don't know some things that might be attractive or appealing in the Linux space. So we try to give our developers line-of-sight to help our product road maps. | ||
