On 25 August 1991, Linus Torvalds announced a new operating-system project, describing it at the time as “just a hobby, won’t be big and professional”
Thirty-five years later, Linux has become one of the most important foundations of modern IT infrastructure. It runs servers, cloud platforms, data centers, embedded systems and many of the services companies around the world depend on every day.
For Bareos, that matters a lot. Bareos runs on Linux, protects Linux systems and has developed within the same open-source ecosystem.
A good reminder of what can grow from a small open-source project over 35 years.
