"Our low fare search engine runs on literally hundreds of Red Hat Enterprise Linux servers, and that technology allows us to return more results," says Hjelm. "The depth and breadth of our offerings are facilitated by the technology we've put in place."
Following Hjelm's remarks, Matthew Szulik will deliver the keynote entitled 'Freedom of Choice'. Throughout history customer choice has transformed entire industries. When customers are given choice rather than forced to settle on the status quo, the results can be powerful. Superior quality and service, diversity, innovation and increased performance are all derived from choice.
