When the financial crisis strikes, Sun also made a global decision to lay off thousands of people, and restructuring the software sector, this time as a Sun co-founder McNealy came to China to bring us?

The Chinese market, the next concern in open source

26 years, Sun at different occasions during the sermon, "open source strategy," and has its own product planning, a fairly complete open source frameworks, ranging from the operating system, database, office suite, until the cross-platform virtualization technology and language development tools, which include OpenSolaris, MySQL, OpenOffice, Java, Netbeans, VirtualBox (innotek), JXTA, Jini, Glassfish and so on. The current trip to China with particular emphasis on McNealy: "a considerable number of Chinese users have to understand the 'open source' and are using open source technology. However, I hope to convince more people to understand the use of open source technology."

November 19, Sun and Ministry of Information Industry Software and Integrated Circuit Promotion Center (CSIP) signed a Memorandum of Understanding Change MIIT_CSIP-Sun open innovation labs, before signing the contract, the Ministry of Information Industry and Deputy Ministers met Lou McNealy and said: "Open source is consistent with the scientific development of the law of software development models, it is China's industry and information industry, rapid and healthy development of a rare opportunity, I hope the two sides carried out in the open source aspects of closer cooperation."

Financial turmoil, Sun can not be spared

With the global financial crisis intensified, Wall Street remain always vigilant to live in Silicon Valley's IT giants feel the chill breezes, Sun storm in this array global job cuts announced in 5000 to 6,000, accounting for about 15 total staff % to 18% in response to the difficulties caused by the credit crunch. At the same time, Sun announced the company's software sector is divided into three business units, namely, application platform software sectors, departments and cloud computing platform and developer platform division, will focus on the promotion of open source technologies and emerging markets. The company's software business restructuring is Sun's own resources will be reallocated to make Solaris and hardware products can be reassembled in order to better integrate into the cloud computing, "Sun software restructuring does not have any impact on the business, if the impact if not more than three individuals, in particular the Chinese market will not produce any negative effects. "McNealy says. As the Sun stock price low, the industry has been spread to be acquired by Sun remarks, directed at this McNealy: "Sun can not prevent competitors rumors that Sun is to be acquired.

If commercial software and open source software are a contradiction, then Gates and McNealy is a pair of rivals competing for 20 years, "Gates to step aside now, and Microsoft, which is very successful, but the future Sun will be more successful! "McNealy said.
