Welcome and FAQ
Welcome and thank you for taking time to join our conversation about the new Linux Journal. We encourage your comments, suggestions and questions.
http://www.linuxjournal.com/digital-faq is a link to our FAQ. Although it is geared torwards paying subscibers, you may still find questions you have answered there so we encourage you to check it out.
Also, if you'd like to experience the new Linux Journal for yourself, we invite you to download a free copy of our September issue. (No strings attached.)
From everyone at Linux Journal... thank you for your support!
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?



Focus
Hi, I stopped subscribing about 2 years back, after many happy years. The reason was that each issue was so tightly and totally focussed they stopped being of any interest to me most of the time. I would pick up each issue and find 90% content on one topic. That is actually a one-off special with a narrow interest group, not a standard issue magazine. You needed to keep at least 50% relevant to be able to sell.
