Are Linux vendors predatory?
I want to continue our discussion about penguins as predators by talking about Covalent.
Covalent’s business is supporting open source projects, then selling direct support of the same software to corporate clients. Covalent doesn’t launch projects. If projects fade in popularity, Covalent can go support other projects — the loss is minimal.
Today Covalent added support for nine new Apache technologies to its roster and it’s expanding, on a per-incident basis, into support for non-Apache offerings, including Interface21’s Spring Framework.
