Operating Systems HP-UX Migrating from HP UX to LINUX/SOLARIS- which one is more preferable? Post 302522363 by methyl on Saturday 14th of May 2011 09:10:13 PM

Assuming decent scale I'd modernise the hardware and software and continue with HP-UX. Porting a large-scale application written in a low-level language to another platform is very high risk.
If this is a trivial application, the platform is largely immaterial providing that you have good programmers.
Whatever the decision, trial the application on sample new platforms and test throughly before making the change.
