Red Hat to open source its Network product
Open Sources reports that Red Hat is to open source its Network product
well, that's no news , internally RedHat has been wanting to do that for ages.
The only thing that was keeping them back was that deep down below their Satellite product they used an Oracle Database, and the time to get rid of that.
So it was only a matter of time .
Open Sourcing RHN means that mangement for hetereogenous platforms will become easier. However in mixed environments you still need to look at other alternatives.
Guess we still have a lot of work to do.
I`m hoping RH can free it's RHN product soon so that maybe we can start contributing
