Linuxcare Awards Adrenaline Multimillion Dollar Contract for B2B Application
(Washington, DC - February 14, 2000) Linuxcare, Inc. has enlisted The Adrenaline Group to help them further expand their services in the exploding Linux market, moving Adrenaline onto the front lines of the open source software revolution.
Under a multimillion-dollar contract, Adrenaline will design and build an advanced Linux-based business-to-business application in support of Linuxcare's recently announced Custom Solutions Service. The fully internationalized application will enable worldwide custom distribution of Linuxcare products and services in any chosen language.
"What Linuxcare is doing is fantastic for both the Linux community and the traditional IT community, and we're happy to be a part of it," said Scott McLoughlin, CEO of The Adrenaline Group. "When it comes to Linux, we've put our money where our mouth is for quite some time now. We standardized on Linux as the platform of choice for high volume web applications as soon as Oracle released a Linux version over a year ago. We know how to make this stuff really work."
Adrenaline will provide services to Linuxcare from its four practice areas: product planning, information architecture, systems architecture, and software development. The contract builds on an existing working relationship between the two companies. Adrenaline recently developed several new features for Linuxcare's website, including an extensive catalogue management system, search and rating systems.
Linuxcare, Inc. is a recognized leader in providing comprehensive customer services for enterprise Linux environments, including technical support, professional services, education and product certification. Based in San Francisco, CA, the company hosts www.linuxcare.com, a leading online technical support resource for Linux. The company unveiled its new Custom Service Solution at the recent Linuxworld conference in New York.
