Yahoo! open sources uber web server

,----[ Quote ]
| Yahoo! has open sourced the back-end 
| software platform that underpins the 
| company's webmail client and countless 
| other applications offered up across its 
| sweeping web portal.
| 
| Known as Traffic Server, the platform 
| handles general edge caching, edge 
| processing, and load balancing at Yahoo!, 
| but it's also used to manage traffic on the 
| company's internal storage and server-
| virtualization services.

Is Cloud Computing Safe for Business? Yes and No...

,----[ Quote ]
| It's not only âhomogeneousâ, it's based 
| almost entirely on open source software (as 
| far as we can tell), with all that this 
| implies for robustness. So, to that extent, 
| it's probably true that for many companies, 
| the server side of cloud computing is 
| indeed relatively safe. But if they're 
| still using Windows with all its 
| vulnerabilities to access those servers, 
| much of that security is squandered. 
| Perhaps that's why Google is coming out 
| with its Linux-based Chrome operating 
| system...
