Focus
1. Debian
Our engineers are true Debian distribution specialists. Several of them are official developpers.
All of them actively dedicate themselves to the evolution of this increasingly popular distribution. Their competencies allow us to create packages for our customers, on demand.
We can thus satisfy companies looking for support on Debian. We can also reinsure those interested in the quality of the production supplied by this open and dynamic dsitribution, but still doubtful of the existence of IT services companies able to provide reliable and durable support around it.
2. Samba
With Samba, one can turn a Unix/Linux server into a SMB server (file and printing server for Windows 3.11 à 98, NE, NT, 2000, XP...).
Samba is used by many companies and communities (Renault, EADS, Thomson, Macsoft, Ville de Metz, etc.).
Samba offers the following advantages :
- Unlimited users accounts
- Excellent performances : flow, latency
- Unrivaled stability.
Software installation is provided by Linbox FAS as well as the transfert from the current platform to Samba, which can sometimes be a bit delicate.

3. GNU Linux clustering and high availability :
Clusters are increasingly widespreading due to their unbeatable output/cost ratio as well as the usage flexibility provided by the computing parallelization of GNU Linux PCs, gathered in nodes.
Many companies desperately in the need of powerful computing capabilities could now afford such tools but don't know it yet.
Linbox FAS is one of the few companies in France enjoying several years of successful experience (Alcatel, CNET, France Telecom...) in this particularly selective area. We can help you conduct all the required prelimianary studies, assist you in the hardware selection, install it, put it into production and maintain it 24/7. Financing or leasing can also be provided.
Hardware wise we work more specifically with : Transtec, NEC, Fujitsu-Siemens ...

5. Ptolemy
Ptolemy is a graphic design free software for signals or image treatment systems. It is thus a complex software intended mainly for image professionals.
Developed at the Berkeley university, Ptolemy offers performances that compare head to head with proprietary softwares... at a much lower cost.
Linbox FAS has been using this software for over five years and has even developed an enhanced version of it. Based on that background, we can then provide specific services such as installation, training and support. Once installed users have a full graphic environment for design and debug.
