print this article 
 

Organizations requiring large numbers of computers for numerical problem-solving may benefit from using Linux because of the following advantages:

  • Better networking support
  • Less operating system (OS) overhead
  • Lower software-license costs
  • Both low-cost and high-end hardware is supported
  • A more stable operating system

Transparen can assist organizations who plan to set up and configure large numbers of Linux computers for data analysis purposes.
