Low-Power Slab Server Pairs ARM with Linux
While Baserock Linux was first developed around the X86-64 platform, its developers planned the leap to the ARM platform. Each Slab CPU node consists of a Marvell quad-core 1.33-GHz Armada XP ARM chip, 2 GB of ECC RAM, a Cogent Computer Systems CSB1726 SoM, and a 30 GB solid-state drive. The nodes are connected to the high-speed network fabric, which includes two links per compute node driving 5 Gbits/s of bonded bandwidth to each CPU, with wire-speed switching and routing at up to 119 million packets per second.
Squid Analyzer – Freecode
Squid Analyzer parses the native access log format of the Squid proxy and reports general statistics about hits, bytes, users, networks, top URLs, and top second level domains. Statistic reports are oriented toward user and bandwidth control; this is not a pure cache statistics generator.
Lenovo ThinkCentre M92 Tiny System Review: Pint-Sized Power
Those skint specs extend to just 4GB of DDR3, a slow 5400-RPM mechanical hard drive, and no wireless connectivity of any kind. These can all be upgraded, mind you, but you’ll have to pay for each one. The system itself is next to impossible to actually dismantle, too, so you’re stuck ordering these upgrades when you order the system. When we’re starting at $699 we should have at least wireless ethernet and Bluetooth standard, especially given just how small and portable the M92 really is.

Disappearing test cases or did another part of MySQL just become closed source?
MySQL test cases were always an important part of the MySQL source tree. They were particularly useful for storage engine developers and for other people extending MySQL, for example, at Facebook, Twitter, and Taobao. But also for Linux distributions which add their patches to the base MySQL, and even to users, who don’t modify the sources — they still want to confirm that a particular bug was fixed or that their custom-built binary has no obvious flaws.
In May, at the Ubuntu Developer Summit in Oakland, Oracle had 7 representatives there, and they promised that Oracle will be more contributor- and distribution-friendly. It is sad to see that instead of that the MySQL source tree is being closed down.

New Apache project will Drill big data in near real time
Because Hadoop uses MapReduce to perform data queries, searches have to be done in batches. So, while you can perform highly detailed analysis of historical data, for instance, one area you would not want to use Hadoop for is transactional data. Transactional data, by its very nature, is highly complex and fluid, as a transaction on an ecommerce site can generate many steps that all have to be implemented quickly.
Nor would it be efficient for Hadoop to be used to process structured data sets that require very minimal latency, such as a Web site served up by a MySQL database in a typical LAMP stack. That’s a speed requirement that Hadoop would poorly serve.

Expanding supported query languages will be one area of focus for the Drill project. Another will be adding support for additional formats, such as JSON, since right now Dremel only supports the Google Protocol Buffer Format.

Troll sues Facebook, Amazon and others for using Hadoop
Big data has become the latest front for the patent troll epidemic as a shell company is suing firms for using a common open-source storage framework known as the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS).
via Troll sues Facebook, Amazon and others for using Hadoop — Tech News and Analysis.
Hadoop has been built by a large network of contributors, including individual developers and large companies like Yahoo and is an Apache Software Foundation project. HDFS, its storage component, was based on Google’s Google File System. Parallel Iron’s patent complaints, however, say the whole system was made possible by four men:
