Two of the biggest names in the open source world announced a partnership yesterday. Red Hat, the North Carolina based provider of open source software for the enterprise and 10Gen, the New York based company behind the increasingly popular NoSQL database MongoDB, are partnering to help developers deliver on the promise of big data and the cloud.
While both companies focus on open-source software, they are no slouch in the business department. Red Hat recently hit a big milestone, becoming the first company based around Linux to hit a billion dollars in annual revenue. Last September 10Gen raised a fresh $20 million in venture funding and has been expanding its Manhattan office and hiring like mad.
