New Groovy Cozies up to Java, SQL
,----[ Quote ]
| Last month, SpringSource, a division of
| VMware, and the community of volunteer
| developers behind Groovy released a new
| version of the dynamically compiled
| language. The new features include some
| old Java functionality that may help Java
| programmers work more easily with Groovy.
| It also includes some additions that ease
| the burden of working with SQL-based
| databases.

Has Cloud Computing Jumped the Shark?
,----[ Quote ]
| Leading the pushback is skeptic Larry
| Ellison, Oracle CEO, who Barron's quotes
| as unloading this torrent of sarcasm in an
| analyst's meeting: Cloud computing "is the
| future of all computing, but more
| impressively, it is the present of all
| computing and the past of all
| computing...Everything is cloud
| computing."
|
| Wow, and I thought I was smart-aleck.
|
| Alas, now even Oracle is making joyful
| noises about the cloud. The database titan
| touts its Cloud Computing Center and has
| launched a new, semi-comprehensible
| acronym: OaaS, Oracle as a Service.
| (Seriously? OaaS? Someone suggested that
| in a meeting, and no one giggled?)

5 Common Questions About Hadoop
,----[ Quote ]
| Thereâs been a lot of buzz about Hadoop lately. Just the other day, some of
| our friends at Yahoo! reclaimed the terasort record from Google using Hadoop,
| and the folks at Facebook let on that they ingest 15 terabytes a day into
| their 2.5 petabyte Hadoop-powered data warehouse.
|
| [...]
|
| Hadoop uses commodity hardware, so every month, your costs decrease or
| provide more capacity for the same price point. You probably have a vendor
| you like, and they probably sell a dual quad-core (8 cores total) machine
| with 4 1TB SATA disks (you specifically donât want RAID).

The dawn of a new Cloudera
,----[ Quote ]
| Given the current economic outlook itâs great to see a new open source
| start-up rearing its head, and the list of founders indicates that this one
| has a good chance of survival. While VentureBeat is focused on the fact that
| Ex-Google, Yahoo, and Facebook employees are on the team, my eye was caught
| by the fact that Mike Oslon, Sleepycat Software founder and former CEO has
| been tempted out of semi-retirement.
