rPath Offers Linux Shops a Way out of "Complexity Hell"Webinar Details Methods for Achieving Flexibility and Control in Low-Cost, Scalable Management of Customized Linux PlatformsRALEIGH, NC - December 3, 2009 - OS groups are under pressure to provision and maintain multiple versions and variants of Red Hat Enterprise Linux and other OS platforms — but, today that achieves flexibility at the expense of control. Application, middleware, security and other specialized requirements spawn new platform variants that create "complexity hell," making ongoing management a major challenge. It leads to duplicate effort in maintaining common OS components, inefficient and fragile update and patching, and transparency issues that put compliance at risk. In an age of flat or declining resources and pressure for customization, today's management models no longer work.
