Axfood is hungry for Red Hat

It’s a Wednesday, so that must mean yet another new customer for the folks at Red Hat. Today, it’s Axfood, one of the largest food retailers in Scandinavia.

According to a nice, flowery press release from Red Hat, Axfood decided to ax everything and standardize its IT infrastructure on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Axfood will use Red Hat Enterprise Linux as a platform for its SAP environment and will also use the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform in its core production environment. Axfood is also going to deploy Red Hat Satellite Server and Red Hat Global File System.

On the JBoss side of things, Axfood has also implemented JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, used in the company’s core production environment. JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is built on open source Java standards and is compatible with most operating systems. Axfood has signed a subscription agreement with Red Hat which provides service, support and updates for both Red Hat Enterprise Linux and JBoss Enterprise Application Platform.

Delicious.
