INNOVATION IN A HIGH-PRESSURE ENVIRONMENTSteve Rubinow has decades of experience
in the information technology industry,
driving technology innovation, strategy
and information management for many
leading organizations including Fidel-
ity Investments, Archipelago Holdings and
NextCard, Inc.
And now as global CIO of NYSE Euronext,
Rubinow is responsible for meeting and ex-
ceeding daily IT demands to handle heavy
workloads while producing fast-paced per-
formance results across the company’s
global systems. Euronext’s cutting-edge IT
strategy has brought the exchange group
to the forefront of elite IT innovation with
systems that push the highest speed, scal-
ability and performance expectations.
“Steve is a visionary in the IT industry,
and we are honored to have him share
some of his knowledge in developing stra-
tegic IT environments that really help drive
business efficiency,” said Jim Whitehurst,
president and CEO at Red Hat. “NYSE
Euronext is a shining example of extraordi-
nary innovation in challenging times.”
NYSE Euronext operates the world’s larg-
With the constant challenge to do more
with less, IT managers are turning to vir-
tualization to provide the means to reduce
hardware and power costs, while simul-
taneously expanding scalability and per-
formance. With the delivery of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.4 yesterday, Red Hat
expanded its reach in virtualization.
Red Hat entered the virtualization in-
dustry in March 2007 with the delivery of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 with integrated
virtualization technology. Since, Red Hat
has continued to expand its virtualization
strategy with its September 2008 acqui-
sition of Qumranet and February 2009
announcement of plans to deliver the
comprehensive Red Hat Enterprise Virtu-
alization portfolio of solutions, including a
standalone hypervisor as well as manage-
ment solutions for both servers and desk-
tops. In June 2008, Red Hat Enterprise
Virtualization entered into a private beta,
which quickly became oversubscribed due
to demand.
Yesterday, Red Hat delivered the founda-
tion of the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualiza-
tion portfolio with the general availability
of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4. This fourth
update to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 in-
cludes kernel-based virtual machine (KVM)
virtualization technology for the first time,
in addition to Xen virtualization technology.
Xen will continue to be supported through
the full lifecycle of Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 5. Through KVM, which is developed
as part of the Linux kernel, Red Hat deliv-
ers the third generation of virtualization
technology, helping to break down barriers
to virtualization like performance, scalabil-
ity, and reliability.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 continues
the ongoing delivery of technology en-
hancements to customers via the Red Hat
subscription model. Those with subscrip-
tions to Red Hat Enterprise Linux automat-
ically receive this fourth update, including
advancements in performance, security,
and storage that span virtual as well as
physical environments.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 also in-
cludes a broad set of hardware platform
enhancements focusing on performance
est and most liquid exchange group. With
over 8,000 listed issues globally, NYSE
Euronext’s equities markets represent near-
ly 40% of the world’s cash equities trading
volume, the most liquidity of any global
exchange group. NYSE Euronext unifies six
cash equities exchanges in five countries
and six derivatives exchanges. It strives to
provide the highest possible market qual-
ity, innovation and customer choice.
“Due to the mission-critical nature of our
infrastructure to our business and that of
our customers, NYSE Euronext seeks to
deliver optimal uptime and system perfor-
mance,” said Rubinow. “I’m looking forward
to sharing our open source strategy with
people at the Red Hat Summit and discuss-
ing our approach to innovation in a high-
pressure environment.”
Rubinow’s keynote will be held in the
International Ballroom at 9 a.m. today.
In his 8:30 a.m. key-
note on open source
and the cloud,
Red Hat CTO and
Vice President of
Engineering Brian
Stevens will present
to Red Hat Summit
attendees on how
cloud computing is
setting the stage for
the future of tech-
nology. Brian will
discuss the role of
Red Hat as a cata-
lyst in the develop-
ment community to
advance cloud infra-
structure from open
source to open ref-
erence architecture.
He’ll also present
on Red Hat’s role to
bridge the interop-
erability challenge
to integrate on-
premise and exter-
nal clouds, and to provide seamless ap-
plication orchestration across public and
private clouds. Through subscription offer-
ings and collaboration, Red Hat will enable
the world’s private clouds.
Mark Little, Chief Technologist — JBoss
Enterprise Middleware, will discuss at 1 p.m.
today what’s new and what’s next with
JBoss Enterprise Middleware and JBoss
Community projects, including the Torque-
Box, Savara, and GateIn projects. Little
and scalability. At the processor chipset
level, the release includes optimizations
for Intel® Xeon® Processor 5500 Series
platforms as well as AMD Istanbul plat-
forms. Network advancements include Ge-
neric Receive Offload (GRO) that utilizes
new processing components in advanced
network adapters to offload portions of the
receive stack. Fibre Channel over Ethernet
(FCoE) performance enhancements and
hardware support are also included. The
release additionally offers a large array of
device driver enhancements ranging from
disk, network and graphics to OFED Infini-
Band drivers.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 also in-
cludes several key feature enhancements
targeted at application developers and
system administrators. Key to these fea-
tures is enhancement to the Systemtap
performance monitoring toolset, including
support for profiling and monitoring C++
applications, as well as inclusion of a large
number of static kernel tracepoints to sim-
plify performance observation for the high-
est profile kernel subsystems. Providing a
roadmap to future enhancements, Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.4 includes a preview
implementation of the highly used malloc
memory allocation library, which is tuned
for the latest, anticipated generation of
multicore processors.
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 was de-
livered to customers yesterday, and the
Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization portfolio
is planned for delivery in late 2009.

Red Hat Network Satellite is Red Hat’s
on-premises systems management solu-
tion that provides software updates, con-
figuration management, provisioning, and
monitoring across both physical and virtual
Red Hat Enterprise Linux servers. Live
from the Red Hat Summit yesterday,
Red Hat released the latest version of the
product: Red Hat Network Satellite 5.3.
Globally available and delivered to cus-
tomers with a Red Hat Network Satellite
subscription, Satellite 5.3 is the first re-
lease based off of the open source project
Spacewalk, first announced at last year’s
Red Hat Summit in June 2008. The release
contains many exciting new features that
are grouped around three key themes:
Leveraging and including cutting-edge 1.
open source systems management proj-
ects such as Cobbler.
Easier management of larger, complex 2.
environments.
Expanded automation and virtualization 3.
capabilities.
With Satellite 5.3, customers receive
powerful open source technologies backed
by the Red Hat subscription, delivering the
feature-richness of the community develop-
ment model combined with the commercial
support to run mission-critical applications
in the enterprise. Customers are offered
enhancements, including increased flex-
ibility and faster provisioning setups with
the incorporation of more mature Cobbler
technology in the product’s underlying pro-
visioning architecture.
“Red Hat Network Satellite 5.3 enables
customers to manage large deployments
more easily and with comparable performance to smaller deployments.”
Red Hat Network Satellite 5.3 also en-
ables customers to manage large deploy-
ments more easily and with comparable
performance to smaller deployments due
to enhanced scalability improvements,
such as code optimization, designed to en-
able faster execution when managing mul-
tiple systems.
Customers also benefit from content
sharing between Satellite servers that is
now faster and provides greater consistency
with the ability to share content between
different organizations in the Satellite
server given Satellite’s improved multi-
tenancy capabilities and inter-Satellite syn-
chronization improvements. Satellite can
also now be more easily and smoothly inte-
grated into customers’ existing automated
processes given its improved open and ex-
tensible APIs.
The product also offers the ability to up-
date, provision, and monitor both physical
and virtual Red Hat Enterprise Linux sys-
tems. With virtual platform management
capabilities that allow customers to create
and entitle Red Hat Enterprise Linux sys-
tems with the ability to install the same
system profiles physically and virtually in a
repeatable, centrally managed way, it frees
up administrator’s time to focus on higher
value-add projects.
These enhancements in Red Hat Net-
work Satellite 5.3 can ultimately save en-
terprises time and money while delivering
a more consistent operating environment
that helps to drive down long-term opera-
tional expenses.
For this morning’s

platform, allowing customers to purchase
the complete solution from Cisco with ser-
vices and support.
“...working to help unify technologies, simplify operations and amplify
datacenter virtualization business results”
The companies today continue to col-
laborate around virtualization, including
Red Hat’s forthcoming Red Hat Enterprise
Virtualization portfolio and cloud comput-
ing. Together the companies are working
to help customers unify technologies, sim-
plify operations and amplify datacenter vir-
tualization business results with the combi-
nation of Cisco and Red Hat technologies.
Fulgham is responsible for overall out-
bound marketing programs, product mar-
keting and field enablement, and partner
ecosystem marketing for Cisco Data Center
Virtualization. Fulgham has more than 25
years of experience in information technol-
ogy service provider, product, and end-user
organizations.
“The Red Hat Summit presents a great
opportunity to share how Cisco has col-
laborated with Red Hat to help customers
unify technologies, simplify operations and
amplify datacenter virtualization business
results with the Cisco Unified Computing
System,” said Fulgham. “We’re excited to
share our technology expertise with at-
tendees and build on our long-term tech-
nology collaboration and relationship with
Red Hat.”

Just as Linux exploded into the enterprise
seven years ago with the introduction of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux, we believe that
now is the time for open source middle-
ware to significantly increase its enter-
prise adoption. JBoss customers, such as
OfficeMax, Sensei, and Ecommerce, are
using open source for mission-critical ap-
plications across their middleware archi-
tectures.

afternoon, Craig Muzilla, Vice President of
Middleware Business at Red Hat, will share
some of his observations on the accelera-
tion of enterprise adoption, and you’ll have
the opportunity to learn about specific uses
of JBoss Enterprise Middleware by custom-
ers faced with mission-critical situations.
Considering a migration? Learn how and
why OfficeMax migrated from proprietary
middleware and UNIX to JBoss Enterprise
Middleware on Red Hat Enterprise Linux
from Tim Hagn, Senior Director of Technol-
ogy Solutions and Infrastructure.
Find out why Tim Dion, CIO of Sensei,
Inc., a mobile and web-based health solu-
tions provider, standardized on JBoss and
Red Hat solutions to design and deploy
products rapidly and how open source so-
lutions influenced the company’s flagship
product, Sensei for Weight Loss.
Evaluating your options? Listen to Rick
Gideon, Vice President of Operations at
Ecommerce Inc, a web hosting and services
company, discuss solutions and the selec-
tion of JBoss Enterprise Middleware to de-
velop an innovative web-hosting infrastruc-
ture that plans to bring enhanced service
and reduced costs to customers.
This diverse panel of JBoss customers
will provide first hand experience on why
they trust JBoss to handle their mission-
critical applications and how developing an
open source strategy provides the flexibil-
ity and scalability to change the way you
do business.
We hope to see you at today’s Customer
Panel Keynote.

sponsored by
Management, Middleware, Red Hat. “After
rigorous testing and hardening of the tech-
nology we expect to deliver a high-value
portal platform with superior performance
to our customers.”
The project is launched and is now
available for download and developer
contribution.
In addition to the launch of the project,
the JBoss portal community has been ex-
tended beyond the GateIn Project to in-
clude a number of strategic partnerships
with Alfresco, JasperSoft and RivetLogic.
These partners have committed to certify-
ing technologies such as portlets and ex-
tensions to the technology that emerges
from the GateIn project.
Ultimately, the GateIn project is intended
to form the foundation for Red Hat’s future
portal infrastructure products and aims to
enable organizations to create rich portal-
based application experiences for users.
The partnerships will present customers
with an opportunity to create compelling
and flexible portal solutions based upon
GateIn and the JBoss Enterprise Portal
Platform without the cost, complexity and
vendor lock-in associated with many portal
vendors.

munity GateIn project, vist jboss.org/
gatein. For more information about

Portal Platform, vist jboss.com/resources/

Red Hat continues its tradition as the top
contributor to the Linux kernel, according
to a recent report published by The Linux
Foundation. The report focuses on over
four years of kernel history as represented
by the 2.6.11 through 2.6.30 releases. Once
again, Red Hat tops the list with 7,897
changes contributed, or 12% of the total.
A summary of the top five company re-
sults follow in the table below:
COmpaNY CHANGES % OF TOTaL
None 26,644 18.2%
Red Hat 17,981 12.3%
Unknown 11,164 7.6%
IBM 11,151 7.6%
Novell 11,046 7.6%
Red Hat is also proud that many of the
top kernel developers recognized in the re-
port are Red Hat employees. For example,
David Miller, Ingo Molnar and Al Viro, all Red
Hatters, are the top three known individual
contributors. They alone contributed 4.5%
of the total changes.
It’s good to see numbers like this, and
given the large scale of resources Red Hat
puts into making Linux enterprise-ready,
the numbers are not too surprising. While
the numbers are nice, customers do not
choose Red Hat because its engineers are
big kernel contributors.
“The most valuable aspect of the numbers
in The Linux Foundation report is that they
illustrate exactly how much work goes into the
Linux kernel...”
Red Hat’s focus is to provide a commer-
cial-strength environment for its custom-
ers that includes the features they need
such as security, performance, scalability,
stable APIs, etc. It involves a lot of core de-
velopment. The most valuable aspect of the
numbers in The Linux Foundation report is
that they illustrate exactly how much work
goes into the Linux kernel, and how dedi-
cated Red Hat is to the open source devel-
opment model.

The JBoss Community has long been the
birthplace for cutting-edge innovation and
collaboration for middleware technologies.
Today we are taking that one step further
by launching the GateIn project in the
JBoss community. The GateIn project is the
next generation of both the JBoss Portal
and the eXo Portal projects. This is the first
major deliverable based upon the JBoss
and eXo collaboration that began earlier in
the year.
The project’s goal is to provide a best-
of-breed open source portal platform com-
bining a robust and enterprise grade Java
infrastructure from JBoss with the intuitive
user-friendly interface capabilities of eXo
Platform. Key features that are currently
being considered for inclusion in GateIn
include granular management of virtual
portals, drag-and-drop layouts, contextual
menuing and navigational controls, new
security and identity administration panels
and full support for open social applica-
tions. Ultimately, GateIn is intended to car-
ry a balance between feature-rich capabili-
ties and lightweight flexibility that are the
hallmarks of the prior portal projects from
JBoss and eXo.
“The GateIn project represents the ad-
vantages of working through the open
source development model; through col-
laboration we are creating cutting-edge
innovation combined with a community of
support to ensure that the best technol-
ogy features make it into the project,” said

Discount Tire, the world’s largest indepen-
dent tire and wheel retailer, has achieved
success with a combination of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux and Red Hat Satellite for
its rapidly growing e-commerce business.
With Red Hat solutions, Discount Tire has
experienced increased performance, reli-
ability, staff productivity and scalability for
its critical IT infrastructure.
When Discount Tire decided to bring
the management of its e-commerce infra-
structure in-house, the IT team originally
built the e-commerce system based on a
Windows platform, but the solution did
not meet Discount Tire’s performance, re-
liability and stability needs. Additionally,
Discount Tire’s use of IBM Lotus Domino
Server, previously running on Windows,
had reliability and downtime issues.
After extensive testing, Discount Tire
selected Red Hat Enterprise Linux for its
critical systems. Red Hat Enterprise Linux
now runs Discount Tire’s entire e-commerce
operation, as well as its Lotus Domino
application.
“Our e-commerce environment has to be
available 24/7/365 at 99.99% availability,
making it absolutely mission-critical. Our
internal applications running under Red
Hat Enterprise Linux include inventory
management and email — things that people
cannot live without. We have been able to
trust Red Hat explicitly that everything will
just work,” said Will Darton, senior server
support administrator for Discount Tire.
“With the combination of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux, Red Hat Satellite and the
expertise of Red Hat Consulting, our sys-
tems are more reliable than ever. Satellite
is my Swiss army knife - I haven’t found
anything I can’t make it do,” said Darton.
“Also, since migrating Lotus Domino to
Red Hat Enterprise Linux, performance
has increased and we’ve been able to free
up IT resources to focus on more strategic
issues.”
