HP and Linux: what do you want to talk about?

by Tim Chambers on 12-02-2009 12:46 PM

Every part of HP is involved with Linux in one way or another. We're using this blog to bring you the freshest news of Linux from HP and talk with you openly about topics that interest you. Whether you're running Linux on ProLiant and Integrity servers in a Converged Infrastructure or running Linux on an HP client; whether you're looking for information about Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, or community Linux from HP; whether you manage your Linux environment with HP Insight Control for Linux or HP Operations Manager; whether you run applications such as Oracle, SAP, a computational fluid dynamics simulation, or just a LAMP stack on HP servers -- we'll talk about that and more on this blog.

HP also has a long and proud history of involvement far beyond Linux with the free and open source software (FOSS) community (e.g.
FOSSology and FOSSbazaar). If you’re into open source governance and licensing, we'll talk about that, too.

Our linux.helpcustomers program focuses on addressing questions and feedback from you that relate to Linux and FOSS on HP products. When you visit
www.hp.com/go/linux, click on the "Contact HP" link, and fill out the form, your message lands in our team mailbox. When we get questions that are of general interest, we'll relay the answers here.

So what's my role? I'm HP's program manager for Linux solutions and the community manager representing our Linux social media team. I also manage the linux.helpcustomers program. Finally, I'm the HP liaison to the Linux Special Interest Group (SIG) at Connect Worldwide, your Independent HP Business Technology Community. I look forward to your comments.
