[dundee] U.S. Navy Newest Warship Powered by Linux

[gordon dunlop]

An interesting article on how the newest U.S. navy vessel USS Zumwalt is
being powered by Linux. It has a data center consisting of IBM blade
servers running Red Hat Linux 6 using embedded virtualization. Believe it
or not, it's first commanding officer is called James Kirk.

As an aside I think they will be sticking to iptables for the moment as I
don't think you want to hear "Captain the missile widnae fire as nftables
winnae allow it".  Captain - "Ok Scotty" :-)
