IN CONCLUSION
Data centers are expensive to operate, and CIOs, CTOs, and IT managers are
continuously looking for ways to help their organization’s bottom line. Selecting an
operating system and software stack that optimizes performance and improves
price/performance can lead to significant savings in the data center. If you can get
better performance out of your existing servers, you do not need to purchase, run, and
maintain as many of them.
In our tests, we found that an open source LAMP deployment based on Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6 had a significant performance advantage for running Web-based
applications when compared to the Windows-based WIMP stack we tested. By choosing
a software stack that heavily outperforms competitors, your organization can reap the
cost and performance benefits that come with making better use of your infrastructure.
