Unix like Operating Systems

Unix like Operating Systems
We are all aware of the fact that Unix is an open source operating system. By open source, we mean that its source code is kept free for changes. No doubt, for a full version Linux, you will need to have the license key from the vendor from whom you are getting the operating system. There are various vendors like Red Hat, Fedora, etc. who design Linux operating system.

History of Computer Operating Systems - Unix
Unix operating system is designed by many vendors today. However, the success of UNIX can be many attributed to the AT&T's Bell Laboratories from where it was desiged and released in 1970's. By the end of the 1970's most people who had done pioneering work in the success of this operating system were holding important positions in the computer world. They insisted on using UNIX. Educational institutions, Government bodies and electronic companies, all continued to use Unix. This led to various vendors entering into this market and producing their own versions of Unix. In 1980, 'The Open Group' or X/Open Company Ltd. was formed by a group of vendors to limit the encroachment by larger companies who wanted to control the system interface. Open Systems had to meed specific standards and Unix system was chosen as the platform for the open systems. In 1993, AT&T sold its Unix System Laboratories to Novell and in 1995, SCO bought the same from Novell. In 1995 X/Open introduced the Unix 95 brand for computer systems. It was meant to guarantee the Single Unix specification.
