00:00:06,549 --> 00:00:09,470
Let's try to understand why
Linux has become so successful.

2
00:00:10,769 --> 00:00:14,904
Because it is open source, software
companies don't have to spend developing

3
00:00:14,904 --> 00:00:19,039
efforts in the platform anymore, so
the platform has become a commodity.

4
00:00:19,719 --> 00:00:26,605
And also the open source nature makes it more secure because
the code is accessible to anyone, which makes it easy to

5
00:00:26,605 --> 00:00:33,490
verify its security in case there are any bugs or other
features. Any developer can access the code and propose a change.

6
00:00:34,030 --> 00:00:37,509
So you don't have to wait for
months anymore before a patch is provided.

7
00:00:38,090 --> 00:00:39,090
You can
write it yourself.

8
00:00:40,810 --> 00:00:43,979
Obviously open source is free, so
you can save money on it.

9
00:00:44,799 --> 00:00:49,229
And Linux is an operating system
that is available for any CPU architecture.

10
00:00:50,070 --> 00:00:53,969
So where is Linux used primarily?
You will find it on servers.

11
00:00:54,719 --> 00:00:59,289
It's often used as a web server,
a database server or an AI server.

12
00:01:00,090 --> 00:01:03,219
And as such it is often
used behind public cloud on the Internet.

13
00:01:04,420 --> 00:01:10,260
You'll also find it as a foundation of
containerized applications as well as in embedded devices.

14
00:01:11,019 --> 00:01:15,763
Did you know, for instance, that Android
on smartphones is based on Linux? But you

15
00:01:15,763 --> 00:01:20,506
also find it in automotive in media
players? The there is only the end user

16
00:01:20,506 --> 00:01:25,250
desktop where it is not dominant,
and that is because of Microsoft Office.

17
00:01:25,930 --> 00:01:30,015
Microsoft Office has established itself
as the worldwide standard for working

18
00:01:30,015 --> 00:01:34,099
with documents, and there is
no Office version for Linux available.
