What advantages does this offer over tools like vfense & spacewalk? How much time/effort do I save, vs deploying an in house solution using vfense (or go to an even lower level with mrepo and configuration management). With the sys

Nice article. But one should also solve this problem a layer that comes before HTTP. Use a DNS provider (or roll your own) that uses anycast to return geographically closes IP address for your HTTP servers.

Had the exact same experience. Established opensource tools like Foreman and Cobbler work much better.

I don't get it. Did they actually benchmark all possible options like shared memory or Sqlite or mysql memory engine (periodically backed)? They say memcache (or redis) would have been slower because of network latency even over localh

You've miss-spelled "unlimeted". Good luck.

From my anecdotal experience, the majority of companies and projects using oracle products, do not actually need them, and could easily get by on free databases.

Wow your link looks extremely scientific and rigorously researched. Just one of its more obvious gems: 2000 Dhanus = 1 Gavyúti (distance to which a cow’s call or lowing can be heard) = 12000 feet

I look at it from another perspective. Many people in the bay area have expensive homes and cars. People do not think twice about over bidding 50-150K when buying a house. In fact, that's the only way to get one here, and that's w

I got an ear infection since I used them often (3-4 times a week st nights). The ears also dry out. My doc said I should use them rarely, but YMMV.

Excel has vastly more features than Google Docs. At all the companies where I've worked at, I've never seen anyone use anything more advanced than a few basic functions. The _vast_ majority of users in a corporate environment use:

Your analogy is accurate in theory. However, Teresa and those like her are a total fraud.

No serious shop will use this. If you release it as an open source project, perhaps someone might find it useful. If they aren't using LDAP/Puppet/Chef/etc . Checkout freeipa.org and https://oss.gonicus.de/labs/gosa .

You should avoid RH based distros for Desktop related activities. Perhaps you should try Ubuntu, Mint or Suse.

The problem is almost always for people from China, India, Mexico and Philippines. The Green Card process takes less than a year for all other countries except these. The Green Card paperwork takes a lot of time and effort for people from t

Haven't used cobbler in a while. Wonder how it compares these days to Foreman ( http://theforeman.org/projects/foreman/wiki/Features ) and Razor ( https://github.com/puppetlabs/Razor )

Network partitioning is also a common occurrence on AWS, and people have to plan for that.

Thats right, however on your second link you can see the dates for China, India, Mexico and Philippines are backlogged for many years, as these countries are the source of most immigrants.

There is no 'grace' period of 1 month, it is technically 0 days after job loss or H1B expiry. However, when you enter the US, the Immigration officer at the airport may choose to give you a few days in addition to your H1B expiry date. That

The entire process is horribly broken. While in theory one can switch jobs during the Green Card process, in practice it is a paperwork nightmare, with plenty of IFs and BUTS to slow you down. It is compounded by the fact that it is not in

It is a very difficult task, but made easier by the fact that mobile CPUs/GPUs have improved greatly in the past few years.
