answer to this question depends on how you define the term important. Few businesses today can exist without software‚ so superficially the answer to this question is self-evident. It is true that there is a large and continually expanding body of open source software that is highly competitive with commercial alternatives. Most of the major infrastructure software categories; database‚ operating system‚ programming language/runtime‚ application/web server‚ etc. have multiple credible offerings. It is

With the option of being installed on any type of hardware regardless of the brand and price‚ UNIX is a viable option for any information technology professional. In addition‚ it is important to mention that UNIX became the basis for other operating systems generally referred to as the UNIX-like ones as they use UNIX codes and are rather competitive compared to non-UNIX-like systems (Afzal
