Nzoom used Vignette content management software to serve its pages.

The new site uses the open-source Cocoon application server and Apache 
web server, sitting on an Oracle 9i database on clustered servers 
running Red Hat Linux.

"With our reduction in head count last year, we needed a platform where 
we could react to changes quickly," Matthewson said.

"With Vignette we had to have skills in-house. By moving to open-source 
we can partner with other suppliers."

Linux the winner again!
