October Issue
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.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn’t scale? In today’s hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.
Stackato private Platform-as-a-Service technology from ActiveState extends your private cloud infrastructure by creating a private PaaS to provide on-demand availability, flexibility, control, and ultimately, faster time-to-market for your enterprise.

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?



Where are the mobi files?
My email from the subscription folks said that there are mobi (kindle) files. On this site, there appear to be no mentions. In fact the FAQ is old (August 19) and has no information. If this is going to be an on-going hassle, I will be a long-time former subscriber. What's the deal?

October issue: Where is it?
So how is one supposed to view the October 2011 issue? It doesn't appear on the list of issues. It seems like there should be a big unmistakable button for the current issue, but searching all over the place doesn't reveal the secret. The email had one column from the October issue, but, as far as I can tell, no link for the full October issue. My patience is wearing thin, as it seems the same thing happened in September.

They said they'd send an email with links.
Have email but link doesn't
Have email but link doesn't get me to the Oct edition or was the email a "taster" for the full version?
That was the Editor's Intro

I'm a busy guy. How about
I'm a busy guy. How about one email when the issue is actually ready to read? Thanks.
