Question

HPUX11I or REDHAT for mission critical application ?

Budgeting, DataCenter, Servers, Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Server, Unix, Unix servers, Hardware, HP-UX

we begin to develop a mission critical project that will deliver at 2007.
now , we have a very good experience with hpux11i for ORACLE DB and application servers(JBOSS , oc4j) .
last month we deliver the first project on redhat.
i told to my managers that we have to develop the mission critical project only on redhat , because i dont see a future to HPUX11I .
i am looking for information that help me in this case.
thanks you

I don't have any information to support your arguement but I completely agree. HP has been pretty non-comittal when it comes to its proprietary technology: PA RISC, HPUX. I totally see a future of two UNIX variants. Solaris and Linux. This may take a few year to play out so your app may be grandfathered by then. (BTW: I'm DBA in a pure HPUX shop and I am pushing mgmnt to start moving some eggs to the Linux basket).
