Intel doesn't care about Microsoft's Itanium snub
,----[ Quote ]
| An Intel spokesman said that most of the Itanium servers

| sales and most Itanium users run HP-UX.

Creating cloud infrastructures
,----[ Quote ]
| You donât want to throw your server
| hardware away, but using the AWS sounds
| cool to you? Maybe you want your own
| private cloud that is interface-compatible
| to the AWS. With Eucalyptus, an open source
| solution exists. Eucalyptus provides the
| EC2, S3 and EBS functionality and you can
| use the same open source tools for managing
| your private cloud that you already know
| from the AWS. The Eucalyptus team provides
| packages for CentOS, Ubuntu, openSUSE and
| Debian, as well as source packages. The
| easiest way to install Eucalyptus is the
| Ubuntu 9.10 Server Edition because this
| distribution already contains Eucalyptus.
| Give the cloud a try.

US weather meisters buy mini Cray
,----[ Quote ]
| The implication is that Cray is in the
| running now for the next big upgrade at
| NCAR. And since NCAR is dabbling with
| Windows HPC Server as well as Linux in
| addition to its big production AIX supers,
| you can bet that NCAR would love to have a
| box that could run either Windows or Linux,
| which a super based on Xeon or Opteron
| processors can do. (IBM's Power-based
| supers can run either AIX or Linux, except
| for the BlueGene machines, which are
| restricted to Linux.)

IBM widens data analytics fleet
,----[ Quote ]
| The Linux partition runs Cognos 8 analytics
| and InfoSphere Warehouse; these are the
| special mainframe Linux editions of those
| programs. This partition is capable of
| doing the analytic work for between 5 and
| 10,000 users, depending on how many
| processors in the System z10 box you
| dedicate to it. The bundle includes some
| base DS8000 storage arrays as well, but
| does not include the Linux license, which
| you need to buy separately from Red Hat or
| Novell.

Ballmer Still Searching for an Answer to Google
,----[ Quote ]
| "Forty percent of servers run Windows, 60 percent run Linux," he said. "How
| are we doing? Forty is less than 60, so I don't like it. ... We have some
| work to do."
