ZDNet UK reports: “Sun will, this week, launch its first server appliances, since
acquiring Cobalt Networks for $2bn, last month. Cobalt’s
server appliances have proven popular, due to their quick
setup and easy administration. Wednesday’s launch will include a new Linux-based Raq
server from Sun’s Cobalt subsidiary, suggesting a retreat, by
Sun, from plans to replace Linux with Solaris. Developers had
said putting Solaris on Cobalt servers would hamper work to
create application-specific servers.”
