SCO UnixWare®
The right choice for scalability, reliability and security
|
SCO UnixWare® is the solution for companies who place a high value on the scalability,
reliability and security inherent in the UNIX® technology, but don't want the vendor
lock-in or high server costs associated with proprietary platforms. Existing vendor
specific UNIX servers limit the ability to integrate heterogeneous environments without
undertaking a costly systems integration project. SCO UnixWare runs on more OEM
platforms than any other UNIX-based operating system. And since it is based on industry
standard Intel and AMD architecture, the customer saves on hardware costs as well as lower
cost to integrate heterogeneous systems.
OpenServer Kernel Personality (OKP) makes all of the feature
enhancements, higher performance, larger file size capability and greater scalability
built into UnixWare available to OpenServer customers. OKP is a complete OpenServer
application environment that gets installed on UW so your investment in OpenServer
applications is 100% protected. OKP is a no cost add-on to UW7 and contains Xenix
compability so most SCO UNIX legacy applications are supported.
Linux Kernel Personality (LKP) has been upgraded to provide worldwide,
multi-byte language support. It doesn't contain a Linux kernel, but does contain the RPMs
needed to run most applications. This new release runs a wider range of applications and
has better performance than prior releases.
Improved Hardware Support SCO's relationship with OEM partners ensure
that the operating system support tracks the direction of the major OEM suppliers. New
hardware support includes legacy free system design, Universal Serial Bus, Intel®
Xeon Hyper-threading architecture, removable media, SCSI-3 and new and updated
graphics, network and HBA drivers.
Support for Popular Open Source Components Native SCO UnixWare ports
of Mozilla, OpenSSL, OpenSLP, OpenSSH, Apache, Samba, Squid, Cdrtools have been
added to the optional services CD. These components are all fully supported
components on UnixWare.
