The Czech postal service is putting its faith in open source, by migrating a vital application onto SuSE Linux
Czech Post, the company that runs the postal service in the Czech Republic, has installed Novell's SuSE Linux on 4,000 servers and 12,000 client terminals. The number of client PCs is set to increase to 15,000 in the near future, according to a Novell spokesman.
The Linux servers are running APOST, a system that handles all postal operations and is used by 20,000 Czech Post employees.
