[Irtalk] Linux job market booms even as the server market disappears - TechRepublic

[Hilton Gibson]

According to a new Dice report, the Linux job market remains sizzling hot.*
Nearly every single hiring manager surveyed (97%) expects to hire more
Linux talent relative to other skills areas in the next six months.*

In fact, Linux jobs growth outpaces Linux server growth.

While IDC pegs Linux server market share at 28.5% in early 2014, a climb of
4.5% over the previous year, market share doesn't tell the whole story
behind Linux jobs growth. To understand the continued rise in demand for
Linux professionals, it's important to look beyond revenue-based market
share.
