This blog will be mainly focused on my own experiences with computers and software. Both I am using now purely as a user and hobbyist. Also I comment on interesting news about ICT, privacy and combinations of both. In deze blog zal het voornamelijk gaan over ervaringen met computers en software waar ik tegenwoordig alleen nog hobbymatig mee bezig ben en mijn commentaar op imo interessante nieuwsberichten op het gebied van ICT, privacy en de combinatie van beide.

Off-the-shelf servers spar with million-dollar storage arrays

Commoditization of storage arrays by use of off the shelf servers is coming to town.The Register has the story about VMworld 2011 where in a hands on lab three contenders were competing with their storage arrays. Well known vendors EMC and NetApp against Nexenta who build a storage array based on common of the shelf server parts for a fraction of the costs. EMC and NetApp are of course not happy with it but the message is clear: adapt or die.
