IT Training Online Course: UNIX

The UNIX specification has been separated from its licensed source-code product, and "UNIX'' has become a single stable specification to be used to develop portable applications that run on systems conforming to the Single UNIX Specification. Portability is ensured because the single set of APIs is supported on all branded products. Developers benefit from flexibility and freedom of choice because they are now able to build large scale systems using 'best of breed' products.
