As Sun sets behind the Oracle's temple, there is lot of debate as whether Oracle would keep on promoting Linux or would go for the newly acquired Solaris. Well that's aside, the newly arrived Sun Oracle Exadata storage product runs Linux by Oracle.

This storage product by Oracle is the amalgamation of high speed server, storage and software for large scale dataware house.

So for now Oracle has preferred Linux over Solaris, as far as the Exadata is concerned.
