The commercial Linux market in China has seen sales value increase 22.6 per cent over the past year, according to new research.
However, the market remains small in revenue terms, with sales of just $5.42m in the first three months of 2008, China-based CCID Consulting reported.
"Servers are still the major application for the Linux market," CCID analysts noted in a recent report.
"The depth and width of application network servers, high performance computing servers and database servers keeps expanding. Linux has acquired more approval from government, finance, telecoms and post services."
