Welcome to the team, Oracle Enterprise Linux, new rPath goodness

As I mentioned in a previous post, until two weeks ago, I had been out of the office for almost a month. In my absence, the KnowledgeTree team was led by my colleague, John Thorne (JamWarehouse’s CEO). John, along with Kevin, Conrad, Phil, Brandon and the rest of the team, did a great job of pushing KnowledgeTree forward. In fact, in March we had our single highest month of bookings (non-GAAP revenues) to date.

During March we also had quite a few new people join the team. Welcome to Monique Chavda (joining support), Martin Kirsten (joining engineering) and Jacqui Woolfson (our new Director of Marketing). We’re excited to be working with you and hope that you have a successful, stimulating and fun time on the KnowledgeTree team!

We have recently certified KnowledgeTree on Oracle Enterprise Linux. If you are an Oracle customer and want to run KnowledgeTree we are now very happy to, and capable of, supporting you.

rPath have updated their KnowledgeTree Virtual Appliance to KnowledgeTree Open Source 3.3.1. If you are looking to evaluate KnowledgeTree Open Source and couldn’t be bothered to prepare a test server, why not download the rPath Virtual Appliance and give it a spin? The appliance is available in VMWare, Xen, Virtual Iron and Microsoft Virtual Server formats. rPath have also got in to bed with Amazon and come up with a very cool rBuilder/Amazon EC2 mashup: cook your Virtual Appliance and deploy to the EC2 cloud, all with a single click in rPath’s rBuilder tool. Very cool…
