  • is this a suse linux commercial or something? I though that was a air traffic clip

  • What a Novell SUSE Linux commercial. I don't know if it's really the best option. Maybe Debian could do these jobs, too, for example. Xen isn't really 100% secure for those critical runtime jobs and so I must say: It's not the best choice, but for sure it's more costless than real hardware. @Deutsche Flugsicherung / IT-Abteilung: Solange nichts passiert, interessiert's keinen. Ich empfehle dennoch wieder in Richtung Hardware zu gehen. Xen ist eher fuer Provider gedacht.

  • Actually, the big ops room looks darker in the video than in real life. Many of the (darker) close-ups show the simulator, not the actual ops room.

  • Actually American ATC systems are in the process of a make over. Involving much more GPS/satellite systems. I wish I knew more specifics to tell you, but its actually supposed to be a huge upgrade in ATC and Navigational systems within the next couple years.

  • Oh cool, good to know. Yeah, it's pretty old and I doubt it gets any kind of a make over anytime soon.

  • TRACONs do not exist in Europe. In the video, those were ACC rooms.

    And they are dark too, but just lit up for the video.

    But I must say, the US ATC system is way too old. The systems are crap. They need a makeover.

  • I like the European TRACON rooms, they are nice and lit up. The ones in America are all dark and filled with smoke with the exception of a few big TRACONs that are like this, but not many :P

  • lol, german accent.....sound better than the american anyways cool viedo....

  • Thats f***ing cool, i love that room!

  • Nice promotional video about Novell SUSE Linux in the real world for critical, complex and medium/large deployment.
