LinuxIT has over 12 years extensive experience in the implementation and management of Linux infrastructures and operating environments for all service and application deliveries across industry, commerce and Government.
SOE - the Standard Operating Environment - underpins all future deployment decisions and enables Open-Source and Linux to be considered and managed on an equal footing with the rest of the your infrastructure.
There are many benefits in having an SOE such as a reduction in the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for the IT environment, more effective support, faster deployment times as well as standardisation.
LinuxIT consultants will bring best practice and experience to the design of your organisations environment built on their experience in deploying and managing similar scale SOE implementations. In addition LinuxIT can provide assessment of on-site maintenance and support capability.
