In my experience dealing with boring corporations, that's another myth. Yes, they run Exchange. But all new developments I've seen happen on Linux boxes, precisely because it's easier to outsource IT.
- rpeden 10y agoPerhaps it depends on how boring/conservative the corporation is. At a past job where we worked with big banks, they'd sometimes look at you suspiciously if your application didn't run on Windows Server. That's just anecdotal, though. Maybe we were just unlucky and worked with odd customers.
- UK-AL 10y agoNo. It's not odd. The vast majority of corporations have an IT department who's main skill is windows management. And for good reason. There still lacks a decent Active Directory/Group Policy/ Exchange open source combo.
