Hey all, I just got a great skunkworks project at my job. I get to R&D a complete direct marketing system. Needless to say it's a huge project, and I'm trying to find a way to use Linux (or at very least open source tools). So I'm looking for some information on speed, security, accuracy, reliability, etc (preferably with comparisons) for web server clustering and database clustering (this needs to include Oracle). As well as possible hardware vendors for large rack mount clusters w/backup storage. Right now I'm looking at IBM, Compac, Penguin Computing, and VA Linux systems. Also info on customer support options would be helpful (I do have to pitch my design to the suits...) -fjr -- Frank J.
