Realizing the promise of Apache® Hadoop® requires the effective deployment of compute, memory, storage and networking to achieve optimal results. With its flexibility and multitude of options, it is easy to over or under provision the server infrastructure, resulting in poor performance and high TCO. Join us for an in depth, technical discussion with industry experts from leading Hadoop and server companies who will provide insights into the key considerations for designing and deploying an optimal Hadoop cluster.

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.

How to Build an Optimal Hadoop Cluster to Store and Maintain Unlimited Amounts of Data Using Microservers
Realizing the promise of Apache® Hadoop® requires the effective deployment of compute, memory, storage and networking to achieve optimal results. With its flexibility and multitude of options, it is easy to over or under provision the server infrastructure, resulting in poor performance and high TCO. Join us for an in depth, technical discussion with industry experts from leading Hadoop and server companies who will provide insights into the key considerations for designing and deploying an optimal Hadoop cluster.
Some of key questions to be discussed are:
- What is the “typical” Hadoop cluster and what should be installed on the different machine types?
- Why should you consider the typical workload patterns when making your hardware decisions?
- Are all microservers created equal for Hadoop deployments?
- How do I plan for expansion if I require more compute, memory, storage or networking?

The amount and quality of information you share here is stunning. I totally agree with the definition of literacy mentioned here. how to get rid of a mole
Which one is 'primary'
Which one is 'primary' depends on what day of the week it is - running a small company providing turn-key solutions means one has to do it all.
Yeah, same here. Maybe not business analyst, but everything else.

Electrical engineer with utility company. Don't use Linux at work. Enjoy learning about and using Linux at home. Appreciate LJ's breadth and depth.
Semiconductor Designer
I work in Semiconductor (chip) design and verification. Linux is used extensively in the Electronic Design Automation industry which we rely on heavily for enabling out "code" to be converted to logic gates and then mapped on to silicon to be manufactured.
IT Field Service Repair
Like so many others I work in the Grocery business for there POS system for field service repair. Strictly hardware repair. Linux is my hobby and I love the freedom of it and I love that it encourages sharing by default. I was forced to use Linux on a non IT related project and I am so glad because it has done so much for me and I have helped many others solve there PC headaches (ie. Windows viruses) Thanks to all of you and all of us.
Retired
When I retired I did not want to be a customer of Microsoft any longer. So now I enjoy learning and playing around with Linux.

Only IT?
Odd. No none of the above/all of the above? And you think that your readers are only IT professionals? My primary occupation is electro-mechanical R&D Technician, but I'm also working on a Degree in Networking. So?
Ficka
In Czech (Moravian dialect) "Ficka" means "I do all in the list" or "one for all"
Some of the above
None really fits as I co-founded a software business and run that. Thus, software development and then 'everything else' that is running a business.
I think that your readership
I think that your readership is far more diverse, i.e. more than IT professionals, than you realize. Hopefully this survey will receive enough comments to be of use to you.

Very Narrow Perspective on Your Readership
LJ seems to think that the only people who read their magazine are all employed in some area intimately connected with IT. This is as stupid as believing all people who read car magazines are involved with the automotive industry. By all means have the above categories but what about tradespeople/doctors/truck drivers etc. For the record, I am an electronics technician who has risen to the dizzy heights of workshop coordinator.

All of the Above
I am a one man IT department for a 50-employee manufacturing company, so each day I could be doing any/all of the items listed above.
Today, I spent most of my day maintaining a VB.net application used in the building which also required some database integration.
I also verified and delivered the day's backup to our offsite contact and answered user questions/problems on their desktops.
It's safe to say that the subject says it all... I do all of the above.

list doesn't fit my profile
I would either pick Embedded Developer or, Firmware Developer. None of them where choices. I would also say that compiler engineer is something different to a software engineer.
All of the above
Which one is 'primary' depends on what day of the week it is - running a small company providing turn-key solutions means one has to do it all.
Oh, and add to the list 'Network specialist'.
Embedded Developer
I think "embedded developer" deserves its own entry.
I have to dig in and get Linux+bootloader working on a given
board, I have to work with cross-development tools to build
the bootloader, kernel, filesystem, and user-space
applications, I have to write some user-space applications
to actually do the deed, and I have to write some scripts
to tie everything together. Not to mention setup and handle
the build system for everything on the device.
I'm not just a "software developer" or "programmer" who can
live entirely within the bounds of eclipse and deny anything
exists beyond its walls. I'm not just a "systems engineer"
who sets up and tweaks an installation and makes sure the
hardware is running at its peak efficiency.
None of the Above
I am in retail sales. None of the categories listed even begin to describe me or what I do for a living.
