The organization, in many instances, was using manual processes established nearly 125 years ago. They realized an urgent need to automate the systems and processes. In July 2004, Pakistan Railways standardized on Linux and deployed Oracle Database, Oracle Collaboration Suite, and Oracle Developer Suite.

whitepaper European Learning Management and New Email System Earn HP Top Marks From University of Oslo2006-03-03 01:01:29
  The University of Oslo (UIO) is Norway's largest and oldest institution for higher education. More than 60,000 email accounts are run by UIO and it deals with over one million emails a day, but this important service was under threat because the ageing Sun-based email infrastructure was becoming unable to cope with increasing load and usage. UIO's IT organisation's critical goals included improving scalability and manageability, and providing high availability performance and effective failover response to protect critical archives. To automatically archive the university's emails, the HP ProLiant server cluster is configured with an HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array 5000 (EVA5000), a high performance, high capacity and high availability "virtual" RAID storage solution.

whitepaper Sun Case Study: St. Francis Xavier University2005-12-22 01:01:52
  Much of the research performed at Nova Scotia's St. Francis Xavier University involves the modelling of various algorithims to prove or disprove a given thesis in the Physics Department. That level of research requires high performance computing (HPC), which necessitated enhancing the University's computing environment. Before upgrading its environment, several factors had to be considered, including speed, ease of systems management and price performance. After evaluating both Red Hat Linux and the Solaris 10 operating system for this environment, the University turned to Sun, which proposed a Sun Fire V20z Opteron-based system, running Solaris 10.
