Linux/Windows Integration
Aguila can provide you with a convenient single-source to help you build and maintain a secure and reliable network infrastructure that combines Linux® with your existing Microsoft Windows® technology. And our scheduled systems administration services offer small and medium-sized businesses and organizations a cost-effective way to administer and support Linux systems technology.
Linux and related open source technologies can provide significant savings to businesses and organizations in place of, or alongside, Windows-based technologies. Aguila can guide you through the integration puzzle. Linux file / print servers can be seamlessly integrated with Windows desktop computers, saving Windows server and per client licensing fees while at the same time delivering superior server reliability and security. While some applications, e.g. accounting, remain tied to Windows the most widely used ones — word processing, spreadsheets, slide presentations — are all available now on Linux. Exhibit: OpenOffice (see openoffice.org), the free open source rival to Microsoft Office. And OpenOffice can read and write Microsoft Office documents. Moreover OpenOffice runs both on Linux and Windows. Any business or organization that runs Microsoft Office should consider the free OpenOffice alternative.
