The Educational Department of South Korea will soon turn to the Linux operating system, which will further prove that open source software has grown and popularized in South Korea. Comparison government departments. This project is part of the Korean government's localization of a large number of Linux operating system devices.
Business Consulting and IT Service Provider BearingPoint has submitted formal proposals to the Ministry of Education, South Korea and the project's Human Resources Program Department of the project last Friday. It is expressed in the proposal that in 2,700 servers in the National Education Information System, the company recommends running the Linux operating system on the 2000 server, each Linux server corresponds to a high school; the remaining 700 servers will run UNIX operations System, each Unix server will be enjoyed by 15 primary schools and junior high school.
BearingPoint also proposes another solution that only uses UNIX operating systems, but the Korean government tends to Linux-UNIX mixing solution. A representative of the Korean government pointed out that although the program is still assessed, I can say that the possibility of open source is large. In mid-September, the South Korean Ministry of Education will announce its decision.
According to BearingPoint, Jung Yong-Kyun, responsible for the project, said that the Linux operating system can process data traffic from a dedicated server at a lower cost. This is why Linux is selected in most servers. In the test, UNIX's performance is slightly linux, so we recommend using it on other servers.
South Korea is the main supporter of open source movement in Asia, so the Korean Ministry of Education has a unique closure of the Linux operating system. The South Korean government announced the plan to use open source system to replace a large number of proprietary systems in the public domain of public domains in 2007 last year. In addition, South Korea is also working with China, Japan to develop Linux version that is capable of competing with Windows.
