Linux News: Open Source: Adidas Steps Up to Open Platform: "A leading sporting goods manufacturer is switching to Linux after seeing the need to consolidate platforms among its many divisions.
Until recently, the brand divisions of adidas-Salomon Canada had independent sales forces and marketing teams with their own applications, said Paul Leone, vice president of IT and logistics at adidas-Salomon Canada in Concord, Ontario, Canada.
The company had numerous supply chain tools which weren't connected. It recently decided to move its Windows-based applications from Dell (Nasdaq: DELL) servers to IBM (NYSE: IBM) iSeries servers running the open source operating system. "
