Now for some interesting news...
IBM Q3 in... According to the main press release quarter was flat for IM. Does anyone have more specific news, like Database sales up/down while other IM products up/down? (Yes IM sells other products like ETL, BI, etc ...) Just curious. I wonder how long it will take before IBM actually starts to listen to what I, Eric and others have been saying all along. But hey! What do I know? I mean heck I've actually thought about a way for IDS to implement Google's big table or actually HBase and Hadoop. Now all I need is a co-conspirator who has a network of 100's of IDS engines that we could play with. ;-) -G _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail: Powerful Free email with security by Microsoft. http://clk.atdmt.com/GBL/go/171222986/direct/01/

AND I'd get the opportunity to showcase for you how much cheaper it is if you avoid the public cloud :) In my last benchmark the difference was astonishing high when it comes to more than a lab setup (>>5000 nodes). Not to mention that one can learn what which PC [as in public cloud] provider has and what not. Much like in my bank when I go there to withdraw 200K EUR in cash ;) dic_k -- Richard Kofler SOLID STATE EDV Dienstleistungen GmbH Vienna/Austria/Europe
