I sent the correct answer way before the closing of contest but I didn't receive any feedback from LJ. Just because I am from Romania I am not permitted to benefit of free subscription?

No reply to correct answer

No letters in today's video. Friday's video only tells you how to and where to submit your unscrambled letters from Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday videos.

Best of luck!

I already subscribe to the magazine which only makes me send money once a year. I'm too old and my time is too precious to play games all week. I like Linux Journal a lot (that's why I subscribe to the mag.) but I don't watch the videos very much -- I would rather have the information in writing. Thanks anyway.

For those of you who prefer to follow GMT vs. the U.S.'s often confusing "daylight vs. standard" time, the contest ends at 03:59:59 GMT March 14, 2009.

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.
