AAbboouutt tthhiiss ddooccuummeenntt This is the Linux Commercial HOWTO. It contains a listing of commercial software which is available for Linux. The Linux Commercial HOWTO doesn't contain any information on Linux distributions -- this is covered by the Distribution HOWTO. If you contact any companies or purchase any products listed in this document, please mention the Linux Commercial HOWTO. This document was originated by Harald Milz . and then maintained by Mr. Poet It is now maintained by Mr. Poet AND LinuxPorts . If you need to know more about the Linux Documentation Project or about Linux HOWTO's, feel free to contact the supervisor Tim Bynum . Tim Bynum will post the listing to several national and international newsgroups on a monthly basis. In addition, the Linux Commercial HOWTO can be found on the World Wide Web at http://commercial.cyrius.com. New versions of the Linux Commercial HOWTO are always placed at this site first, so please be sure to check if the copy you are reading is still up to date! The Linux Commercial HOWTO is not a forum for product announcements or marketing hype; it is a service for potential customers and the whole Linux community. Resellers will not be listed; the list is for companies who produce their software themselves. Two main goals are being aimed at: +o It shall help companies who want to run Linux to find software solutions and applications. The international distribution of this list will enhance the contact opportunity. +o It is meant to prove the commercial useability of Linux and thus to encourage other vendors to port their software as well. Companies and developers who are offering their products for Linux and interested in joining the Linux Commercial HOWTO are invited to fill out the following form and contact me at poet@linuxports.com. This HOWTO contains tabular entries for each product (example follows). The entry format is similar to the Linux Software Map (LSM) entry (field/stanza lengths are arbitrary). If you want me to add your entry please _k_e_e_p _s_h_o_r_t, otherwise I'll have to shorten your data. Furthermore, please send me plain ASCII data; no HTML, and no PostScript. Category: Databases, Data Visualisation, Development tools, Financial Software, Mathematics, Multimedia, Network Management, Text Processing, X Windows or Other Software. Name: The name of your application. Description: Short description of the package, just the basic functionality. Distribution media: Licensing policy: Whatever applies. Is there a free demo or shareware version available via FTP or WWW? Where? OS provisions: Kernel version, XFree86 version, Motif version, RAM, harddisk usage, etc. Documentation: Printed documentation, page number, online help, language. Extra features and add-Ons: (and their prices) Price range: Whatever it costs. Vendor: Address: Phone: (U.S. and Canada: if you like to be reachable internationally, please don't enter only a +1 800 or +1 900 number) Fax: EMail: URL: Contact: 22..

DDiissccllaaiimmeerr This HOWTO is not actually a HOWTO in the sense of the Linux Documentation Project. Instead, it is an instrument to investigate the commercial Linux opportunity and to list applications which were already ported and marketed in a native Linux version. As a software vendor, you probably know that you can alternatively offer Linux users a statically linked SCO version of your application which would probably run under the iBCS2 emulator (albeit with a small performance penalty and higher memory requirements). Such applications will not be listed here. I will not select nor deselect any particular product. Instead, everyone who wants to have her product included will be serviced. However, I reserve the right to shorten individual entries to keep things in shape. If you don't find a particular product or vendor in this list, this is probably due to one of the following reasons: +o I never heard of that product or vendor and thus didn't try to get in contact. +o I did get in contact, but the vendor didn't answer yet. +o I did get in contact, but the vendor stated positively that he doesn't sell his product for Linux (yet). In any case, please get in contact if you feel someone's missing; also if you discover any errors in the file. Sometimes two vendor's addresses are mentioned in the ``Vendor:'' field. In these cases I received the information from the German subsidiary/distributor. The original manufacturer's address is always mentioned first. 44..

Copyright (C) 1996 iX Multiuser Multitasking Magazin Courtesy of iX Multiuser Multitasking Magazin! People keep asking me ``When is Linux going to be ready for the _c_o_m_m_e_r_c_i_a_l _m_a_r_k_e_t''. I guess the first thing to discuss is what is meant by "commercial" in this context. Some CD-ROM vendors have put the word "commercial" in their name, only to have the technical people think their product is good only for use by banks and insurance companies. Other people look at their product with disdain and say that ``Linux is not _c_o_m_m_e_r_c_i_a_l _q_u_a_l_i_t_y'', because it is missing some feature they need, or they feel it is unstable (usually without ever trying it even one time). To me, the word ``commercial'' has lost as much meaning in the marketplace as some of the other buzzwords: +o ``Open'' vs ``Proprietary'' (People are now saying UNIX is ``Proprietary'') +o ``Workstation'' vs ``PC'' (What is a workstation, anyway?) In the old days of computing the commercial market was banks, insurance companies and business-oriented facilities where the use of COBOL or RPG was the mainstream. The technical market was scientific, engineering and manufacturing where FORTRAN and assembly language was used. Somewhere along the way the term ``commercial'' seems to have gotten twisted around to mean ``ready for the mass market'', versus ``ready for hackers''. For the purpose of this article I will take the second meaning, and address whether I think Linux is ready for commercial purposes rather than the hobbyist and hacker market, and ready for the mass market rather than limited markets. For those of you who hate reading long articles, or who are short on time, let me give you my conclusion right now. Then you can go out and drink beer or other fun activities: ``Yes, Linux is ready for the commercial market...in some cases''. In order for an operating system to be ready for the mass market it must have several attributes: +o have lots of applications +o be relatively easy to install +o have lots of applications +o be relatively easy to maintain +o have lots of applications +o be relatively easy to use +o have lots of applications +o not crash (much) +o have lots of applications +o be economical +o have lots of applications But you can eliminate all of these considerations in today's mass market if only one thing is true: You have lots of applications. after all, there would not be 170,000,000 DOS systems in the world if any of the others _h_a_d to be true. I almost added that is has to be economical, but history has actually proven me wrong on that. If people added up the total cost of ownership, then Apple would certainly have won over the PC. But people ignore the human costs of someone else (or even themselves) beating their head against the wall trying to get something to work, or the system crashing repeatedly, or the fact that the one keystroke they can hit the easiest (through practice) is In the old days people were content to spend several hundreds of dol- lars on a simple ASCII text editor, or deal with a simple spreadsheet. And it took an act of mangement to get them, with lots of Purchase Orders. Today, they want multi-media integrated with their operating system, and have all the applications available that their neighbor (or boss, or compatriot) has available on _t_h_e_i_r system. And they want to get these applications easily, certainly no harder than to call up on the phone to order them through a catalog, or go down to their cor- ner store to get them. Now what causes this plethora of applications for an operating system? Ease of programming? Good software development tools? Features inside the operating system? Stability of the interfaces over time? The answer is ``none of these''. While all these attributes may help convince an application developer to port, the one overriding issue is volume of the operating system platform. Again, if MSDOS were compared to MacOS, or even to UNIX and volume were not taken into account, we know which two operating systems would have the most applications, and they would not be from Microsoft. While it is true that several Linux vendors are working on getting these applications for the mass market (read this " your mother and father"), the number of applications that run on Microsoft platforms have been estimated as high as 35,000. SunOS has an estimated 10,000 applications, with other `commercial UNIX'' systems (including Solaris 2.x) much lower in number. It will take the Linux vendors a long time to get the number of applications necessary to hit the really large mass market, particularly if they did not depend on iBCS2 and DOS/Windows compatibility (which could supply a fair number of current applications), but depended on ``native'' Linux applications. So applications are king (and queen) for the mass market, and installed base (volume) or the promise of explosive growth (volume) is the key to these. But is the mass market the only ``commercial'' market? The answer is ``no''. The mass market is a subset (albeit very large one) of the commercial market. So let's look at what the rest of the commercial market needs. We will look at this by segmenting the market into: +o turnkey systems +o large end-user customers +o specialized markets 55..11.. TTuurrnnkkeeyy ssyysstteemmss When I speak of turnkey systems I typically mean a computer system that has one specific (or not so specific) application that runs on it. Examples of turnkey systems are point-of-sale terminals, reservation systems, CAD systems, etc. But in a larger sense, other applications such as Web servers, nameservers (such as BIND), etc. could also be considered ``turnkey'', since they have only a few necessary programs that have to run on the system. Usually turnkey systems are ones that an Independent Software Vendor (ISV) or Value Added Reseller (VAR) will chose a hardware system, an operating system, port an application to it, then duplicate that system 500 to 1000 times without change to the basic application. These ISVs and VARs will try to chose the lowest cost solution to fit their customer's needs. Linux is perfect for these types of applications. The operating system is stable enough for the developer to port their application and test the application fully. Once it is fully tested and stable, the entire package is ``frozen'' and duplicated any number of times for the end customer. Since the operating system may be freely copied, and it runs on inexpensive hardware, their variable costs are minimal. Even a developer who is not familiar with the Linux system (so they need help getting it running on a platform) will quickly pay back the porting and system programmer costs they accrue by not paying $200-$500. per license for the operating system. Plus they have all the source code for the entire system, in case they run into trouble later on. You can buy a lot of Linux support for $200-$500K. As I said before, I include Internet Service Providers (ISPs) as part of this ``turnkey'' environment, for both external internet and internal internet. Why overload your expensive, high-powered, highly complex general-purpose server to do Web serving when a smaller, simpler box can offload it? Why not run your NIS slaves on a Linux box? Or perhaps your BIND server? In the early days of Digital UNIX (known then as DEC OSF/1) we did not have very many applications. In fact we had none. The marketing staff came to me with sad faces asking if it was possible to sell an operating system that had no applications. I invented a term called ``Turbocharging'', which allowed a Digital UNIX system using the speed and power of the Alpha processor (as well as the throughput of our networking devices) to offload NIS, NFS, BIND and other services from people's overloaded, slower SPARC machines. We also showed people how they could use the rsh(1) command to allow the Alpha to do a portion of their very CPU intensive processing while delivering the result back to the SPARCs on their desk. This allowed the SPARCs to work more on applications and less on the other ``system administration'' tasks that they were performing. We sold lots of Digital UNIX systems based solely on executing those tasks. Today, of course, Digital UNIX has a lot more applications, and particularly very large memory databases that are extremely fast. But the same principle applies. The database engine runs on the Alpha system, supplying data to the slower SPARC engines as a ``Turbocharger''. I could see Linux systems headed in the same direction, following the same path. 55..22.. LLaarrggee eenndd--uusseerr ccuussttoommeerrss Very large customers often have their own home-grown applications which they need to deploy across a wide network of people. Or they can have management dictate a certain suite of applications, which then can be ported to Linux. Since these customers are so large, their operating system costs are huge, and utilizing the savings using the Linux operating system they may completely cover the expenses of porting their software. Or these very large customers may ``influence'' their layered product providers to port to the Linux platform. Finally, they may even change some of their computing habits (to use existing programs) if the cost savings are enough to warrant it. Companies like Caldera are creating a suite of applications and approaching these very large customers to show them the operating system savings that they can achieve if they switch to Linux. While it is true that every application the customer could ever conceive of running may not run on Linux, by using the native applications, the iBCS2 applications, the DOSEMU applications, and applications that run under WABI, a nice suite of applications could be built to solve their needs. 55..33.. SSppeecciiaalliizzeedd mmaarrkkeettss Finally there are what I call ``specialized markets''. Markets that might buy Linux simply because it is Linux, and not because of the application suites that it provides. In the education field there are three main markets: +o administrative +o ``campus computing'' +o computer science education The administrative part is the ``business'' aspect of the market. They are looking for easy-to-use systems that can also handle complex administrative tasks that might cover a community the size of a small city. The ``campus computing'' is the supply of computing power and service for majors of all types, web services and research into non-computer science (for example, molecular modeling) research. Finally there is computer science education, both on the undergraduate and graduate level, as well as research into computer science. While the administrative sub-market typically relies more on shrink- wrapped applications, the other two rely on them to a lesser extent (with the computer science education market relying the least). The other two markets can utilize a lot more of the freeware and shareware applications that are already ported to Linux. This gives them a very low-cost (from a software perspective) platform while allowing them to see and (often) modify the source code for the applications they use. More importantly, in the computer science research area, the results of the research can be freely distributed to others working in the field, or even published as source code to illustrate the results. This can not be done with ``commercial'' operating systems. Some universities are utilizing Linux more and more to run their campus. From a ``commercial'' standpoint, their needs are the same as many large businesses. Students graduating from college will know about Linux, and bring the word to their future employers. Finally, there is the computer hobbyist and software developer market. I relate this market to the amateur radio market. In the amateur radio market the radio is often used to simply talk to other people, but at the same time the users investigate new ways of using radio, and improving it. Many electrical engineers started out as amateur radio users. So it can be with Linux, since for the first time both the prices of the hardware and the prices of the operating system source code are within the reach of mortal people. In conclusion, I feel that Linux does have the items needed for several types of ``commercial'' uses: +o stability and quality +o low variable costs for turnkey applications +o explosive growth in volume to attract ISVs What Linux really needs is for the ``commercial'' community to understand what is going on, and to embrace it where it will be useful. This will increase the volume numbers even more, which will attract more applications. Along these lines I would like to ``advertise'' a joint effort of USENIX and Linux International to happen in January of 1997 in Anaheim, California of the United States. There will be a joint USENIX/Linux development conference, and while a certain part of the Linux conference will be oriented towards the development of the Linux operating system, the bulk of the conference will be oriented towards application developers and marketing people, to better understand the Linux operating system and how to sell their applications and services into the Linux market. We hope to show ISVs, VARs, resellers and distributors how they can make money by selling their applications and services on top of the Linux operating system. 55..44..

WebTailor uses a simple server-side scripting language to modify the site's content. The language, targeted to non-technical web designers, is easy to learn and use. For the more technical, the CGI interface has been expanded to enable parameter passing on a per visitor basis between scripts running on different pages. ThreadTrack tags individual visitors to a web site with a unique identifier that remains with them for their visit. Each visitor's session is recorded click-by-click, so a database of aggregate and individual activity is available for reports.
