  •  
    "# Que sean distribuciones especialmente dirigidas al escritorio, no entrando aquí otras distribuciones ligeras de seguridad, forenses, de recuperación y gestión de sistemas operativos que existen en la actualidad # Que se trate de productos que tengan pocos requisitos a la hora de ser empleadas en equipos obsoletos y poco potentes (especialmente en lo que a RAM y tamaño en disco se refiere) aunque alguna tiene requisitos más elevados de disco, siendo más aconsejables para netbooks # He procurado incluir distribuciones que sean recientes en el tiempo, de modo que sea mas fácil encontrar soporte # Dentro de lo posible, he intentado mencionar proyectos que no se recogen en el artículo original, aunque alguno sobrevive y sigue presente en este top ten actualizado"

Castle: Reinventing Storage for Big Data: OSCON 2011 - O'Reilly Conferences, July 25 - ... - 0 views

  • The standard Linux storage stack wasn’t designed for write-heavy big data workloads, nor is it well-suited to modern hardware: large, slow SATA disks, SSDs or many cores. Castle, an open-source project, is a ground-up overhauling of RAID, file systems, and the POSIX interface. It is released under the GPL and runs as part of the Linux kernel. Our target is 1 million random inserts per second to disk on a $1,000 commodity box, and we’re nearly there. Castle is also the core of the Acunu Data Platform, which delivers up to 100x higher performance for applications written for Cassandra and other tools.

SSH_AUTH_SOCK=$(find /tmp/ssh-* -user `whoami` -name agent\* -printf '%T@ %p\n' 2>/dev/null | sort -k 1nr | sed 's/^[^ ]* //' | head -n 1)

Open Source has no bearing upon Software Security - Community does - Unscrewing Security - 1 views

  • There's no reason to believe that Apple's iPhone iOS is better or worse than Android from a security perspective - at least from the perspective of openness. There may be more fundamental architectural issues to distinguish the platforms but (again) they both have Unix-like heritage, so they both start from a good place.
  • Security quality is disjoint from openness. Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) is clearly and famously not less secure than closed / proprietary software - but neither is FOSS necessarily more secure than proprietary.

Red Hat: 'Yes, we undercut Oracle with hidden Linux patches' * Channel Register - 5 views

  • "We made the change, quite honestly, because we are absolutely making a set of steps that make it more difficult for competitors that wish to provide support services on top of Red Hat Enterprise Linux," Red Hat chief technology officer Brian Stevens tells The Register, before naming those competitors. "Today, there are two competitors that I'm aware of that go to our customers directly, offering to support RHEL directly for them...Oracle and Novell."
  • "The work that we've done should not impede companies from building their own versions of Linux and supporting those for their customers," he says. "All the code we deliver through RHEL is out there. In most cases, the changes that go into RHEL. We already distribute into the upstream kernel. We have an upstream-first policy, where we're developing openly and then later integrating into our tree and then delivering it. So it shouldn't at all impede the community or anybody that's in the business of competing on that."
