Data centers today are stretched to the limits with fast-paced business demands. On top of that, integrating and managing IT infrastructures can pose major challenges. Organizations need a new solution that consolidates servers and workloads without breaking the bank—and Linux, together with IBM Enterprise Linux Server offers exactly that.
In this informative webcast you’ll gain Jean's perspective on how you can overcome your IT challenges by optimizing workloads and lowering costs with an enterprise-wide Linux strategy, and gain “the flexibility of many and the efficiency of one.”

Eucalyptus Gets $30 Million C Round
Eucalyptus Systems, the open source private and hybrid cloud merchant that just tied up with Amazon, has gotten a $30 million C round on top of the $25.5 million it’s already gotten. It says the C round was oversubscribed.
The funding was led by Institutional Venture Partners (IVP). Existing investors, including Benchmark Capital, BV Capital and New Enterprise Associates (NEA) pitched in too.
Eucalyptus claims to be the most widely deployed on-premise IaaS cloud platform, but, according to Marten Mickos, who runs the joint, at $55.5 million, Eucalyptus is the “least funded” of the current crop of players like VMware, OpenStack and now CloudStack, which have got hundreds of millions of dollars at their disposal.

Suppose AMD Bought MIPS
MIPS Technologies, the coulda-been-great processor house that’s down-on-the-heels for the umpteenth time, has reportedly hired Goldman Sachs to find a buyer. Bloomberg say it got it from “people with knowledge of the decision” and apparently the search is already weeks-old.
MIPS’ largest customer is Broadcom, whose name is being bandied about with Qualcomm’s, Google’s, Nvidia’s, AMD’s and even ARM’s as possible suitors.
Forbes, for one, its ears to the ground, is betting on the AMD rumor, pointing out that “MIPS has a chip that runs Android 4.0 ICS and consumes LESS power than competing ARM parts. Furthermore, that chip is built in old 65nm process versus power-saving 40nm and 28nm competitors.”

Doing a Linux Based Victory Lap
Okay, I admit it, when I solve a particularly confoundingproblem, I like to get up, proclaim “Victory Lap!” and walk around in a smallcircle (Sometimes two for bigger problems). I think it's important to celebratedevelopment successes particularly when they result in helping to really moveprogress ahead. I’d like to share with you folks my latest cause for a VictoryLap.
My current project is requiring me to install VirtualDirectory Server for HCM and GRC along with an IDM Dispatcher on a Red HatLINUX server. Now I’ve dabbled withLINUX before and even run it as my personal Operating System once upon a time, but Ithink it’s safe to say that I was going to learn a bit during this process, and learn I did!
