Nowadays, though still under-represented at the level of personal computers, Linux is a leader with regard to web servers and supercomputers (used by companies like Google, Facebook, Twitter and Amazon).

More recently, it also triumphs at smartphones, as the Android system (leading system on smartphones) is based on Linux’s kernel.

Aware of the advantages of using this technology, Eurotux is a pioneer company in the adoption, integration and development of solutions based on Open Source technologies such as Linux, which provide cost-reduction, security, performance, quality and adaptability to the developed projects.
