<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
If you contact any companies or purchase any products listed in this
|
|
document, please mention the Linux Commercial HOWTO.<p>
|
|
|
|
This document was originated by Harald Milz
|

<htmlurl url = "mailto:Harald.Milz@Linux.org"
|
|
name = "<Harald.Milz@Linux.org>">.
|
|
and then maintained by Mr. Poet
|
|
<p>
|
|
It is now maintained by Mr. Poet AND LinuxPorts

please be sure to check if the copy you are reading is still up to date!
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
<itemize>
|
|
<item>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.
|
|
|
|
<item>It is meant to prove the commercial useability of Linux and thus to
|
|
encourage other vendors to port their software as well.
|
|
</itemize>
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
<htmlurl url = "mailto:poet@linuxports.com" name = "poet@linuxports.com">.
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
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 <em>keep short</em>, otherwise I'll have to shorten your data.
|
|
Furthermore, please send me plain ASCII data; no HTML, and no PostScript.

<sect>Disclaimer

<p>
|

|
|
This HOWTO is not actually a HOWTO in the sense of the
|
|
<htmlurl
|
|
url = "http://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/INDEX.html"
|
|
name = "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.

|
<p>
|
|
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.
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you don't find a particular product or vendor in this list, this
|
|
is probably due to one of the following reasons:
|
|
|
|
<itemize>
|
|
<item>I never heard of that product or vendor and thus
|
|
didn't try to get in contact.
|
|
<item>I did get in contact, but the vendor didn't
|
|
answer yet.
|
|
<item>I did get in contact, but the vendor stated
|
|
positively that he doesn't sell his product for Linux (yet).
|
|
</itemize>
|
|
|
|
In any case, please get in contact if you feel someone's missing; also if
|
|
you discover any errors in the file.
|
|
<p>
|
|
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.

People keep asking me ``When is Linux going to be ready for the
|
|
<em>commercial market</em>''. I guess the first thing to discuss is
|
|
what is meant by "commercial" in this context.<p>
|
|
|
|
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 <em>commercial quality</em>'', because
|
|
it is missing some feature they need, or they feel it is unstable (usually
|
|
without ever trying it even one time).<p>
|
|
|
|
To me, the word ``commercial'' has lost as much meaning in the marketplace
|
|
as some of the other buzzwords:<p>
|
|
|
|
<itemize>
|
|
<item>``Open'' vs ``Proprietary'' (People are now saying UNIX is ``Proprietary'')
|
|
<item>``Workstation'' vs ``PC'' (What is a workstation, anyway?)
|
|
</itemize>
|
|
|
|
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''.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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:<p>
|
|
|
|
``Yes, Linux is ready for the commercial market...in some cases''.<p>
|
|
|
|
In order for an operating system to be ready for the mass market it must
|
|
have several attributes:<p>
|
|
|
|
<itemize>
|
|
<item>have lots of applications
|
|
<item>be relatively easy to install
|
|
<item>have lots of applications
|
|
<item>be relatively easy to maintain
|
|
<item>have lots of applications
|
|
<item>be relatively easy to use
|
|
<item>have lots of applications
|
|
<item>not crash (much)
|
|
<item>have lots of applications
|
|
<item>be economical
|
|
<item>have lots of applications
|
|
</itemize>
|
|
|
|
But you can eliminate all of these considerations in today's mass market
|
|
if only one thing is true:<p>
|
|
|
|
You have lots of applications.<p>
|
|
|
|
after all, there would not be 170,000,000 DOS systems in the world if
|
|
any of the others <em>had</em> to be true.<p>
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
<tscreen><verb>
|
|
<CTRL><ALT><DEL>
|
|
</verb></tscreen>
|
|
In the old days people were content to spend several hundreds of dollars
|
|
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 <em>their</em> 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 corner store to get
|
|
them.<p>
|
|
|
|
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?<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
<itemize>
|
|
<item>turnkey systems
|
|
<item>large end-user customers
|
|
<item>specialized markets
|
|
</itemize>
|
|
|
|
<sect1>Turnkey systems
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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?<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
<sect1>Large end-user customers
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
<sect1>Specialized markets
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
In the education field there are three main markets:
|
|
<itemize>
|
|
<item>administrative
|
|
<item>``campus computing''
|
|
<item>computer science education
|
|
</itemize>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
Finally there is computer science education, both on the undergraduate
|
|
and graduate level, as well as research into computer science.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
In conclusion, I feel that Linux does have the items needed for several
|
|
types of ``commercial'' uses:
|
|
|
|
<itemize>
|
|
<item>stability and quality
|
|
<item>low variable costs for turnkey applications
|
|
<item>explosive growth in volume to attract ISVs
|
|
</itemize>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>
|
|
|
|
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.<p>

<sect1>ThreadTrack and WebTailor from Webthreads.
|
|
<p><descrip>
|
|
|
|
<tag/Description:/ ThreadTrack and WebTailor are lightweight browser and
|
|
server independent CGI script packages, developed under Linux, that add
|
|
state to web servers. ThreadTrack is used for tracking the activity of
|
|
individual visitors to a web site, and WebTailor is used to dynamically
|
|
modify the content of a web site in response to a visitor's profile or
|
|
actions.
|
|
|
|
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. Comprehensive reporting is
|
|
included, and the data (dBase III) is easily transferrable to custom
|
|
reporting packages.

<sect1>sdoc (Source Documenter)
|
|
<p><descrip>
|
|
|
|
<tag/Description:/ This program helps to create a complete, indexed
|
|
documentation from your sources (C, tcl, Perl currently available, other
|
|
will follow soon).
|
|
|
|
You add documentation information to your scripts using pod (Plain old
|
|
documentation), the documentation format also used in Perl. The
|
|
documentation options provided by pod are simple and easy to learn but
|
|
powerfull enough to create nice and good looking documents.
|
|
|
|
sdoc uses this information to create a pod-document which in turn may
|
|
be transformed to HTML, LaTeX (and PostScript), nroff or just plain text.
|
|
|
|
The preview function of tdoc lets you create documentation
|
|
interactively - add or modify your documentation to the source file and
|
|
check the output for correctness.
|
|
|
|
Here are some highlights:
|
|
|
|
<itemize>
|
|
<item>Documentation is included in source file, no separate files needed
|
|
<item>Powerfull formatting options combined with easy learning
|
|
<item>Good looking documentation can be created without hassle
|
|
<item>Automated indexing
|
|
<item>Output may be in HTML, PostScript and a lot of other formats (have
|
|
a look at the perlpod manual page or at available pod converters).
|
|
</itemize>
|
|
|
|
The Tcl Documenter is also available as a commercial version. This
|
|
version adds the following features:
|
|
|
|
<itemize>
|
|
<item>Significantly faster
|
|
<item>May optionally use Netscape to display preview pages.
|
|
<item>Includes the package concept to further automate file selection.
|
|
<item>Direct connection to emacs for file editing
|
|
<item>Direct creation of postscript output
|
|
<item>Full support, upgrades
|
|
<item>Complete documentation

|
procedural language except that the numeric digit specification is limited to
|
|
15 digits. S/REXX functions as an imbedded macro language for SEDIT as well
|
|
as providing a powerful modern programming language alternative to shell
|
|
scripting languages. SEDIT and S/REXX may be purchased in a bundle or
|
|
individually. See our <htmlurl url = "http://www.sedit.com"

<sect1>ST/X (Smalltalk/X)
|

<p><descrip>
|
|
|
|
<tag/Description:/ ST/X is a complete implementation of the Smalltalk
|
|
programming language with development environment providing all of the
|
|
advantages you would expect from Smalltalk: a fully object oriented
|
|
programming language, a graphical development environment with editors,
|
|
browsers, symbolic debugger, incremental compiler and just-in-time
|
|
compilation to machine code as well as an extensive class library.
|
|
|
|
<tag/Distribution media:/ CD-ROM.
|
|
|
|
<tag/Licensing policy:/ There are non-commercial, evaluation and commercial
|
|
licences available. There is also demo version on the Internet, although
|
|
it is quite old, this should be updated at some time in 1997.
|
|
|
|
<tag/OS provisions:/ ST/X requires 32 MB or more of memory and 100 MB
|
|
hard disk space.
|
|
|
|
<tag/Documentation:/ The ST/X documentation is available online as
|
|
hypertext (HTML).
|
|
|
|
<tag/Product support:/ eXept Software AG provides mentoring, training,
|
|
and consulting. Onsite support is also available. For the commercial
|
|
licence there is an update service and maintenance support.
|
|
|
|
<tag/Extra features and add-ons:/ ST/X includes a supplementary stand-alone
|
|
machine code compiler and the possibility to embed C code directly into
|
|
Smalltalk methods. This allows the exploitation and use of existing C
|
|
libraries or a performance improvement in the speed of time critical
|
|
operations. An integral part of ST/X is an HTML browser which is fully
|
|
implemented in Smalltalk. It supports network loadable Smalltalk applets
|
|
and smalltalk scripts embedded in HTML pages. This allows the development
|
|
of Internet and Intranet applications analogous to Java.
|
|
|
|
<tag/Available since:/ ST/X has been available as a beta version on the
|
|
Internet for quite a while. eXept Software AG has been further developing
|

changing values. This conception shall be partially reflected in the name
|
|
XMove, which is also the abbreviation of "X Window System Meter Object
|
|
Visualization and Editing Tool".
|
|
|
|
X Window System: XMove is based completely on the standard X Windows
|
|
System. XMove was specifically designed to support this standard for
|
|
graphics user interfaces. In many applications XMove can be used
|
|
complementary to OSF/Motif.
|
|
|
|
Meter Object: Meter Object is the reference to the dynamic features of
|
|
XMove. Using XMove the user can provide dynamic attributes for any graphics
|
|
object in addition to the definition of static behavior.
|
|
|
|
Visualizing: means that the displaying and managing of the
|
|
application-specific graphics, which can be designed interactively usign
|
|
XMove, is done by XMove during of the application.
|
|
|
|
Editing Tool: stands for the interactive possibilities of creating the static
|
|
and dynamic parts of an application-specific graphyc usign the XMove editors.
|
|
|
|
XMove generate the necesary C++ code for X Windows System to develop the
|
|
application in a very sample way. XMove is an object oriented graphics
|
|
developing system.

was carefully optimized for maximal performance, too. Matrix<LIB> is
|
|
also included in the MATCOM V2 distribution.

it becomes highlighted. By clicking right on a highlighted word, a menu of

suggestions appears.

<tag/Description:/ Clustor is a program for managing large computational
|
|
tasks. Clustor greatly simplifies a common computationally intensive
|
|
activity - running the same program code numerous times with different
|
|
inputs. Clustor provides increased performance by distributing jobs
|
|
over a network of computers and improved task management through a
|
|
friendly user interface.<p>
|
|
|
|
Targeted at users who run computationally demanding tasks, Clustor
|
|
supports all phases of running such a task: task preparation, job
|
|
generation and job execution. With Clustor, users who do not have
|
|
extensive knowledge of programming parallel applications, such as
|
|
scientists, engineers, researchers, are able to utilize the power of
|
|
networked computers.

<tag/Description:/ Printers from Hewlett-Packard (both laser and ink

|
variants) have an extensive set of configurable options. These options
|

are normally set on the front panel of the printer.<p>

The most notable options are:
|
|
|
|
<itemize>
|
|
<item>Ccono-mode to save toner

<item>Powersave mode
|

<item>Page format selection

is especially usefull for printers that lack front panel configurability
|

(like the LaserJet 5L) or if you have more than one printer at your

disposal.<p>
