Linux Servers
Although we are primarily a Microsoft shop, GearyTech uses Linux for many applications within the workplace. Firewalls, phone systems, network storage devices and security appliances are terrific applications for Linux. Ask us how you could use Linux for maximum benefit!
Linux Servers
Linux servers have a variety of uses within a SMB environment, and GearyTech deploys them wherever they make sense.
The allure of Linux and the bulk of
applications which run on Linux is the open source nature. That is to say,
programs are developed and maintained by a community of volunteers. Licenses for
this software are often given out at no charge. GearyTech provides value added
services such as implementation and support services for Linux operating systems
and the related applications.
The following are a sample of Linux servers and applications which see frequent
use with GearyTech customers...
