Move to Linux With Confidence - Novell Government Solutions: Linux Migration for Government

Overview Yesterday's IT solutions are not enough for today's government needs. Government organizations are being confronted with high expectations from citizens; they are being asked to do more with less; they need to be able to interact more often and more productively with other agencies; and they need to do all this using more secure, reliable and scalable IT systems. Compounding the problem are proprietary systems that put government organizations at the mercy of vendors - having to rely on their schedules for upgrades, and lock in to their requirements for hardware, software and work flows. Additionally, today's popular proprietary systems are often the targets of malicious viruses and have proven to be less secure than once thought.
