Nigeria Puts Bio-Identity System To The Test (TechWeb)

TechWeb looks at how Linux blade servers will create a flexible architecture for Nigeria's first civilian-run election since military rule ended. "BioLink will deploy 456 800i single-processor Linux blade servers from RLX Technologies Inc. to voter-registration sites in Nigeria's 37 states. The blades will process data from scanned voter-registration cards, which will include voters' thumbprints. BioLink's software will run on the blades, checking for fraud or duplication."
