News.com reports on the adoption of a Linux solution for improving data exchange in the Danish Ministry of Finance. "The data exchange system uses open-source application server JBoss running on Red Hat Linux. It transmits 1.5 megabits of data per second between about 400 public institutions and the ministry, according to a report on open source from Computer Sciences Corp. Peter Henningsen, the data exchange project manager at the Ministry of Finance, said the open-source combination was chosen over BizTalk Server, Microsoft's systems integration application."
