You're assuming that you're around when the team is building out said system. What if you have the misfortune of inheriting a system where there was plenty of rope to go around?

You'll be OK as long as you're dropping off suitcases of money at Oracle's door, but currently it appears that freely available fixes/security updates will cease as soon as the next LTS is released.

by Yeroc 9y ago
Yeah, the lack of overlap in support between LTS releases is the real killer. I predict that in 5 years there will be few people using the Oracle JVM. People will migrate to the JVM supported on their OS (for example, RedHat supports Open

Not sure about AWS but it looks like an answer to Microsoft's Azure AD hosted services.

I've used Thrift on a project in the past and one feature gRPC has that Thrift doesn't is the ability to use streaming semantics. This would have actually been very useful for the project I used Thrift on. If I were implementing

They may well be buying locally (as in within Canadian borders, or perhaps even within the province) but they certainly won't be buying from small individual producers for the simple reason that a small scale farmer can't supply e

Containers are overkill if you're just trying to isolate environment variables and filesystems. I mean really, if that was your problem and you came up with containers as the solution I'd say you over-engineered the solution. En

Quite frankly I don't think we should be counting elapsed time from when the device was first released but rather to when the device was last sold as new. I have a Sony Z3 first released September 2014, but which I purchased new over

Ansible was designed to be server-less from the beginning. Are thinking of Chef or Puppet? Ansible Tower (which is the subject of this article) is a web application frontend for running Ansible.

If you're using <some-alias>@user.example.com nothing says that user@example.com has to be a valid delivery address. If I read the article correctly in fact, that is the case in their implementation. So it's not possible f

One thing I would have liked to have seen addressed in the article is whether the new architecture requires additional hardware (presumably) to operate and if so how much more.

I just wish they'd admit the same for the latest Macbook Pro where they appear to be optimizing for things that pros don't care about and removing things they do care about!

That said, I imagine anyone running a large deployment will most likely want to purchase a support contract anyways. This is why I don't understand the ForgeRock move (assuming this was intentional -- hard to say at this point): The

Sensationalism and hyperbole sells. We all know that. We also know that the truth almost always lies somewhere in the middle. The writer of the post clearly bears a lot of scars. Self-inflicted? Maybe. Avoidable? Possible. Is Docker

It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. RedHat is pretty invested in Docker right now via OpenShift so they have a lot incentive to backport required kernel fixes to Centos/RHEL 7 but at some point they'll likely hav

I'm sure many will disagree with me on this but I'm convinced that Scala is the Perl of the JVM world. It's a language with too many succinct but unreadable ways of doing things. Ultimately I don't think languages lik

You don't need to start worrying about them becoming a monopoly until they actually figure out how to properly provide support for their products to the people (eg enterprises) that need it. :P

Evidently the passwords weren't hashed with a unique salt or this analysis wouldn't have been possible. Edit later: Ugh, now that I read up on this some more I realize they weren't even hashed, but encrypted instead.
