Paper instructions:
Your company is currently investigating the use of Linux. Your manager has asked you to research the feasibility of using
Linux in both the server and workstation environments. Your manager would like to see an 8- to 10-page paper that:
1. compares and contrasts Linux server and Linux workstation products between three separate and distinct Linux vendors;
and
2. addresses the specific issues of total cost of ownership, training, support, performance, reliability, and application
availability.
The paper shall only address business requirements and concerns, not personal or home use of Linux.
The paper shall address three different Linux vendors, along with each vendor’s specific server and workstation product.
Each comparison and/or contrast item should include each of the three specific vendors—for both server and workstation
products.
The primary emphasis on grading will address comparison and contrast items; however, you must still provide references
and cite your work throughout the paper.
