It's funny to see how well this has stood the test of time; these concepts are still perfectly valid today (although wuch is right that Hungarian has fallen out of favour.)
- nickpsecurity 10y agoMore than valid: much of it is implemented in both NonStop and Stratus servers with amazing levels of uptime. Been waiting forever for FOSS OS's to copy some of these techniques with a limited config of HW redundancy. Now you can even get inexpensive, PowerPC boards that support lockstep with 1+GHz processors. That's for embedded use.
- JoachimSchipper 10y agoEmbedded and FLOSS appear to be rather different worlds, I'm afraid. There's a gcc toolchain running through both, but...
- nickpsecurity 10y agoWell, yeah, but people do a lot with old computers, Rasp Pi's, etc. I guess I was thinking those crowds. Esp if it was a monitoring, backup, or authentication solution where uptime meant more than throughput.
