大公司的Linux使用率一直在攀升，最近的調查顯示，有73%的大公司在他們的服務器上跑Linux操作系統，在一個月前這個比例還停留在67%，一年前在65%。上面這段文字出現在per Evans數據公司的最近有關大企業的發展報告中。
作為per Evans公司的主席，John Andrews說，我們一直都有看到，Linux不斷的在企業級操作系統市場上獲得突破，因為他已經足夠成熟，可以面對關鍵的企業級商業業務應用。我們也不斷的看到，越來越多的企業級IT管理人員在使用Linux，把Linux集成到他們的基礎架構中去，從而獲得更好的TCO。
Linux usage in the servers of large companies is continuing to rise. 73% of enterprise companies are running Linux on at least some of their servers. Just six months ago that figure was 67% and a year ago it was 65%, as per Evans Data Corp's latest Enterprise Development Issues Survey.
"We continue to see Linux making deeper inroads into the Enterprise space as it matures to handle more critical business workloads," states John Andrews, President of Evans Data. "We are continuing to see more and more enterprise IT managers make better use of Linux, integrating it into their heterogeneous environments where it makes the best business sense."
Other findings from Volume I of the 2006 Enterprise Survey of almost 400 developers include:
* Grid computing is on the rise. Fifteen percent of respondents are currently using a grid computing strategy, up from ten percent six months ago. One third of enterprise companies either have a grid in place or expect to in the next twelve months.
* Eighteen percent of those surveyed are currently implementing Rich Internet Applications, a 50% increase from six months ago.
* Desktop database usage is slipping. Only about half of respondents use desktop databases compared to 66% one year ago.
