Red Hat: 2011 Results

The past year is a landmark for Red Hat. The company entered the cloud computing market , prepared the release of Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization 3.0, and became a notable player in the open data market for big data, thanks to the acquisition of Gluster. I would add to this the opening of a full-fledged representation in Russia , but on a global scale this news is not very significant. ;-) Under the cut list of major events, according to Red Hat (there are links to what was mentioned on the Habré).
