UNIX/Linux Enterprise Software Ecosystem to Grow as Fast as Windows’

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

The Linux Foundation announced April 8 its annual sponsorship of independent IDC predictions about how the Linux ecosystem will grow over time. The answer is “a lot” but exactly what you’d expect in relationship to the UNIX ecosystem. 

I usually measure Linux/UNIX usage growth/decline by following the IDC quarterly view of server shipments. The clear trend from that perspective is that factory shipments of servers with Linux is increasing basically at the rate that factory shipments of servers with UNIX decreases. It gets the rabid open source blogosphere foaming at the mouth to say this but Linux is basically the latest version of UNIX. So market researchers expect the two operating systems to move in this manner. 

From a market research perspective, looking at the Linux ecosystem separate from the UNIX ecosystem would be like looking at the growth of Windows 15 years ago without also watching the decline of DOS. Bascially,  you choose the IBM and HP versions of Linux et al for factory shipments if you used to choose AIX, HP/UX and so forth. In addition, leading server suppliers are partnering with Linux services suppliers such as Red Hat, Canonical and so forth for follow-ons. This is relatively low-margin services business the major systems suppliers used to take for themselves. 

The IDC report released April 8 looks at the same trend from a different perspective. By the way and not coincidentally, the Linux Foundation is funded by platinum sponsors Fujitsu, Hitachi, HP, IBM, Intel, NEC, Novell and Oracle along with dozens of other Gold, Silver and Affiliate sponsors. Rather than measuring your choice of servers, the new IDC research predicts your “Linux-related software spending.” The forecast says Linux-related software revenue will grow from billion to billion between 2008 and 2013 while “Unix spending” goes almost almost flat (from billion to billion). This statistic forecasts not only the Linux- and other open source operating software (e.g., Solaris) revenue flowing in the market but the revenue of license fees, maintenance and related subscriptions for application servers, ESBs, databases, ERP, BI and even consumer software running on those operating systems. Note that much of this software is not tied to open source terms and conditions (Ts&Cs). As an example, an Oracle database and SAP R/3 running on a Linux server would be considered Linux-related software spending in this case. 

The IDC report also has some interesting information about cloud computing, virtualization and the effects on the market of the current economic downturn. It is available free from the Linux Foundation Web site. I wrote about a companion piece of IDC research sponsored by Novell here

By comparison, “Windows-related” revenue, according to the same IDC white paper, will grow from 9 billion to 6 billion during the same period. That is, both ecosystems are growing at about the same compound annual growth rate of 6 percent to 7 percent. That’s also as one would expect because both ecosystems are rapidly becoming the two dominant choices you have in the marketplace. As has been the trend for a few years, Linux- and other open source-based software is replacing UNIX-system-based software while Windows-based software is displacing OS/400 and other similar less IT-personnel-intensive systems. 

As always, be careful of statistics. These statistics do not tell the whole story of the marketplace and your choices in it. For example, just as a lot of the software in the open source operating system ecosystem is deployed with traditional Ts&Cs (the Oracle/SAP example above), a lot of the software revenue measured in the Windows ecosystem is distributed with open source Ts&Cs. Examples are JBoss or MySQL running on Windows

Linux Backup Software ? How to Recover Linux Corrupted Data

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

The amount of information that becomes available each year is incredible, growing in leaps as technology evolves. Hosting all that information isn’t an easy task, as there are a lot of things that can happen, including being deleted, lost, corrupted, inaccessible or formatted.

If that data is important to you, then you can have a big problem. The next step would probably be to look for a software that you can use to recover your lost data. You can use the data recovery process for that purpose. There are data recovery options both for Linux and Windows.

You can use Linux data recover software to get your information back, in a number of different cases:

- You lost folders or files on Linux

- Your hard drive was formatted

- Your operating system was corrupted or it crashed

- A lost or deleted volume

You might be wondering by now what the Linux data recovery software can do.

It’s capable of doing a number of types of recovery process.

- Ex3 and Ex2 Data Recovery

- Recovery of a Linux Partition

- Recovery of a Linux Formatted Disk

- ReiserFS File System Recovery

- Recovery of Linux Deleted Files

The Linux data recovery software can do all the things I mentioned above. The strong algorithm behind this software will find all the corrupted, formatted, lost, deleted or inaccessible folders and files.

After it finds those files, the software repairs them and you can use them again. In the end, the files that were recovered will be put in the same place where they were before, so you can use them again.

If you keep getting error messages, you might have some problems with corrupted files on your Linux based computer. Some of the possible error messages are:

1. Unknown terminal type Linux and similar

2. Cannot read the table of mounted file systems

3. Cannot initialize drive X and many more.

4. Maximum count Reached

5. Internal Compiler Error

If you get one of the messages mentioned here, start the Linux data recovery software and try getting your files back. Download or buy the program, install it and start it.

Linux and Unix Software Development and Its Use in Embedded Systems

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Unix and Linux are both POSIX compliant operating systems. POSIX defined a standard interface to the low-level operating system which greatly reduces the amount of work required to produce UNIX and Linux software.

Unix and Linux software development

The standard user command line and scripting interface was based on the Korn shell. Other user-level programs, services and utilities include awk, echo, ed, and hundreds of others. Required program-level services include basic I/O (file, terminal, and network) services. POSIX also defines a standard threading library API which is supported by most modern operating systems.

Currently POSIX documentation is divided in three parts:

POSIX Kernel APIs

POSIX Commands and Utilities

POSIX Conformance Testing

Linux Development requires both POSIX and 3rd party/native GDI and GUI frameworks to create usable Linux and UNIX software. DOTNUTSHELL can create highly scalable and usable POSIX software which can be run on UNIX and Linux. The software can range from simple utilities to distributed software which has to be run on heterogenous platforms such as Linux, UNIX and Windows.

Linux and UNIX development is also the desired platform and framework for the creation of embedded software:

Embedded software and embedded systems, are those that require 100% of resources shared across a single platform often used to monitor, update and control hardware.

DOTNUTSHELL has experience in creating robust, efficient embedded software running as a monolithic Operating system, or a Kernel add-on in an Embedded Linux distribution.

It is the responsibility of the underlying embedded software system to maintain state information, persist changes to hardware configuration as well as gaurantee transaction and concurrency control at the hardware interface-level.

We have experience in creating:

MontaVista based embedded software

Embeddix based embedded software

Linux Driver creation

low-level hardware and bus interface strategies and mechanisms

I/O mapping and application/kernel space mixing

Real-time application development

Cross platform development

Assembler/C/C++ based embedded software development

POSIX development

RISC/PowerPC405 & 82xx, MIPS Development

Recovery Gets Easy Using Linux Data Recovery Software!

Tagged Under : , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Linux is a great operating system which is having various unique capacities that is not available in other operating system. It has capacities for high capacity data maintenance, multi user and multi tasking capacities which are very essential for today’s world where there is a huge amount of data as well as information which need to store in the computer. Linux is perfect suitable for these kind of thing and is used for a long time in the high capacities servers. Data loss is a very risky thing which occurs in all the operating system and unfortunately it happens in Linux operating systems too. We generally think that once the data lost can’t recover forever and it was true till there was not any solution for this kind of problem. As programmers and developers felt this problem, they made the software which can rescue all the lost data.

If you are using the Linux based computer systems then you might face the following problems:
• Lost or Corrupted MBR
• Lost or Corrupted Super Block
• Lost or Corrupted Inode Table
• Deletion of files or folders
• Root Directories corruption
• Corrupted BGD (Block Group Descriptor)

Finally they made software which has capacity to recover all the data and named it as Linux data recovery software. This software can recover the files after:
• Files get removed by virus attack
• Files get removed due to power failure
• Files get removed due to system failure
• Files get removed due to human error
• The volume is reformatted even with a different operating system
• Change or damage in volume structure
• Presence of bad sectors on the disk

The Linux data recovery Software has a very intuitive graphical interface which is an on-screen wizard that will guide you to perform all the necessary steps for data recovery. The Linux data recovery software has the TurboScan technology and some adjustable tweaks which can make the recovery process much faster than before. It needs windows 2000, XP or 2003 as a host operating system. The software supports Ext2FS and Ext3FS file system. It has disk imaging and cloning capacities. The Disk Imaging helps in create image files that can be used as a regular disk. The Disk Cloning option allow the cloning the faulty disk to a healthy disk.

You can have various file transfer options with the Linux data recovery software. You can save the recover files on the other system of network. Moreover you can save the files on the remote FTP location also. It also performs the logical volume management (LVM) support for Linux volumes. It is available as demo version and License version. Demo is available for free and you have to purchase the License version. Different Licenses are available for different kind of users and you can choose it from them.
