E-Trade VP Talks Open-Source (eWeek)
eWeek has posted a lengthy
interview with Lee Thompson, the VP of architecture at E-Trade.
"So we're now at summer of 2002, and at this point, I realized, this
is a much, much bigger phenomenon than simply taking [down the] dramatic
cost of the data center, which it definitely was - millions
and millions and millions of dollars came out of our expenses to run our
facility.... However, something else was also going on, and I did a deep
dive on open source at this particular time. I started running lots of
different distros. I ended up running Gentoo. Personally, I run the Gentoo
distro."
