Life Insurance Corporation (LIC) of India, the country’s largest insurance player will deploy Red Hat Enterprise Linux across its 2,048 branches, 100 divisional offices executing seven zonal offices, head office, subsidiary offices and overseas locations. 🙂

LIC will completely migrate all its mission-critical business applications to Red Hat Enterprise Linux across all its locations in India and abroad.

Currently LIC use SCO UNIX and other versions of UNIX on servers. This move will not just reduce cost but it will focus on core business applications and leave the management of the entire operating system infrastructure to Red Hat, India.
