Submission + - University of Bergen, Norway, scraps Solaris (www.idg.no)
Christoffer777 writes: The University of Bergen, Norway, has decided to phase out and replace their Solaris based file servers after lack of support from Oracle.
According to Thomas Evensen, head of IT, they do not trust that Oracle has the capacity to figure out what is wrong and give them proper support. He claims that Oracle does not have the technical expertise to diagnose the problem, that it probably has to do with all the Sun employees that have left since Oracle took over, and that escalating the problem within Oracle has taken a long time. It seems that their plan is to move to some form of Linux.
For those who do not understand Norwegian, they do not have an English version, so you will have to try your luck with a translator.
