Oracle certifies pretested stacks

Oracle is now certifying 10 pretested software stacks for Linux, officials said. They've also completed pretesting for storage switches from Brocade Communications Systems and Cisco Systems, and for storage itself from start-up Pillar Data Systems (founded and funded by Oracle's Larry Ellison.) Oracle calls its stack testing Validated Configurations and expects to add one new partner per month, officials said. In the future, they'll also seek tests from customers.
