One of Microsoft’s more surprising initiatives lately revolves around the open source Linux community. The company has been making a concerted effort to expand their cross-platform support not only for productivity works on iOS and Android but alsothose who want to run virtual Linux machines in the cloud.

Today, the Microsoft Mechanics team posted a video demonstrating Red Hat Linux running on Azure:

An exploration of how you can use the hyper-scale of Azure to run and manage Red Hat solutions in your IT environment. We’ll also go over pre-built Red Hat Enterprise Linux images in the Azure marketplace, integrated support to help you troubleshoot issues and get access to Red Hat resources. Also, how you can take your on-premises apps and run them on top of the Red Hat OpenShift infrastructure running on Azure.

You can’t argue that Microsoft isn’t working hard to support the open source community in a variety of ways. Let us know in the comments what you think about Microsoft’s efforts to be more inclusive of open source solutions.

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
