Linux Foundations for a Complete Customer Orientated Solution

The basis of the planning was to lay the foundation for a Linux that could deliver complete customer orientated solutions – across a range of vendors and suppliers. In essence many of these same vendors were competitors either for product software applications or services. That was both a challenge and a bonus. It was all in their best interests – both from a software flexibility , development and customer satisfaction viewpoint to provide the most stable , flexible and modifiable Linux base platform.

This is the situation that a United Linux framework came into play. The aim of the United Linux project was to address all of these crucial areas of software and customer satisfaction areas of concerns as well as to provide base flexibility and stability of the Linux operating system , systems and applications. Linux had to be all thing to all people and customers as well as provide a most stable , and secure application level standards.

The aim was to provide a mechanism of a single point contact by which IHV’s and ISV’s could get dependent drivers , utilities into a commercial LSB compliant OS implementation.

Basis of the Linux Programming Model for Application Development and Deployment

A minimum set of functionality and the mode of implementation was needed to be shared with all Linux compliant platforms. What the LSB specification which was set for linux distributions was set up to define was a common specification for Linux institutions for all the major Linux distributions and applications. THE LSB had the support of all the major distribution makers.

What the LSB did not do what to define how the semantics of installation and additional functionality should have been delivered and then provide a framework as how additional functionality was to be planned for and delivered . It was to provide a complete customer orientated solution. If Linux was to serve the mainstream business and corporate business client it had to have a solid foundation to be built upon which specifically tailored solutions , for either specific industries , applications or clients could be developed upon.

It had to be solid , substantial and rock solid whatever programs and applications were to devised and developed.
