Veritas Software has joined the Open Source Development Lab (OSDL) and will participate in the lab`s Centre Workgroup.

The move, says Veritas, furthers its Linux commitments to customers and accelerates the process of making Linux enterprise-ready.

Veritas has been expanding its Linux product portfolio, which includes data protection, high availability, storage management, server and application performance management software.

"We`re thrilled about joining OSDL and participating in its initiatives to promote Linux as an enterprise-class operating system. We view Linux as a strategic platform with immense potential in the enterprise," says Mark Bregman, executive VP of product operations at Veritas.

"Veritas is committed to being an active participant of OSDL and offering our expertise in software to enable utility computing across Linux data centre environments."

"The commitment of global companies like Veritas...is the latest demonstration of the momentum for Linux in the enterprise," says Stuart Cohen, CEO of OSDL.
