POET 2.1

POET 2.1, the Cross-Platform Object Database for C++ is now available on Linux both in a single-user “Personal Edition” and in a Client/Server “Professional Edition”. It features cross-platform support, not only at the source level, but also provides binary compatibility between objects on all supported platforms, including many Unix platforms, Novell, and Macintosh.

POET is provided as a set of C++ classes which provide a fully object-oriented system, including persistent classes.

For more information, e-mail info@poet.com or call (408) 970-4640 in the US, or e-mail info@poet.de or call +49 (0)40 609 90 18 in Germany.

Cyclom-8Ys

Due to the high volume of inquiries received, Cyclades Corporation has announced the release of the Linux driver onto the Internet for its intelligent RISC-based high-speed (115 Kbps) 8-port card, the Cyclom-8Ys. The driver was developed in cooperation with Randolph Bentson, a Seattle-based computer science consultant.

List price is $459, but Cyclades is offering the board for $99 to resellers who are first-time buyers. Interested distributors and resellers should contact Cyclades Corp-oration's sales team for more details, and end users may ask for a list of resellers in their region.

Cyclades Corporation is located at 44140 Old Warm Springs Blvd., Fremont, CA 94538. You may call toll-free (800)347-6601, call (510)770-9727, fax (510)770-0355, or e-mail cyclades@netcom.com.

Fabric-Based Computing Enables Optimized Hyperscale Data Centers

Today’s modular x86 servers are compute-centric, designed as a least common denominator to support a wide range of IT workloads. Those generic, virtualized IT workloads have much different resource optimization requirements than hyperscale and cloud applications. They have resulted in a “one size fits all” enterprise IT architecture that is not optimized for a specific set of IT workloads, and especially not emerging hyperscale workloads, such as web applications, big data, and object storage. In this report, you will learn how shifting the focus from traditional compute-centric IT architectures to an innovative disaggregated fabric-based architecture can optimize and scale your data center.

Red Hat White Paper: Using an Open Source Framework to Catch the Bad Guy

Built-in forensics, incident response, and security with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

Every security policy provides guidance and requirements for ensuring adequate protection of information and data, as well as high-level technical and administrative security requirements for a system in a given environment. Traditionally, providing security for a system focuses on the confidentiality of the information on it. However, protecting the data integrity and system and data availability is just as important. For example, when processing United States intelligence information, there are three attributes that require protection: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
