Breaking the Availability Barrier III: Active/Active Systems

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Holenstein, Paul J. / Holenstein, Bruce / Highleyman, Bill, PUBLISHER: Authorhouse, Active/active architectures can extend failure times from years to centuries. Active/active systems comprise multiple independent nodes using a common distributed database cooperating in a common application. This book is the third volume of a three-part series on active/active systems. It gives real-life examples of existing active/active systems that are achieving such extraordinary failure intervals. As our daily lives and corporate well-being become more dependent upon computers, system reliability grows increasingly important. No longer are frequent system outages acceptable. Often, failure intervals must now be measured in centuries. In addition, the performance of these systems is analyzed; and a set of commercial off-the-shelf products are described that enable system implementations. There are many additional advantages of these multi-node architectures, such as unlimited scalability, load balancing, disaster tolerance, efficient use of all capacity, and risk-free failover testing. Also described are several other technologies related to high availability, such as the grid, virtual tape, and the Real Time Enterprise (RTE). There are many regulations being promulgated that require the use of high-availability computing. Many of these are summarized. Throughout this volume and the preceding two volumes, dozens of rules are formulated to achieve extreme availabilities. They are summarized here for handy reference.

The Future Is Happy

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Sarai, Sarah, PUBLISHER: Blazevox Books, Poetry. "With both wit and tenderness, Sarah Sarai rigorously navigates the dialectics of knowledge and not knowing, thinking and being, the fantastic and the quotidian, the spiritual and the earthy, in language that is by turns crisp and lush.

With ground-breaking research and compelling stories seen through an investigative, historical, and narrative lens, "Diabetes Rising "couples big-picture insight with intimate reporting.

Yet, that advice was priceless then and even more valuable now These days, we are constantly reminded of threats to our health and the well-being of our children. They include preservatives, artificial additives, air and water pollution and drug resistant viruses, just to name a few. Thanks to advances in technology, more information than ever is available to us, but with so many sources offering advice, it often leads to confusing and contradictory suggestions about maintaining optimum health. As a result, it is easy to lose track of what the real perils are. For example: Which is the best way to prevent colds and flu: "Washing your hands or taking vitamin C?" Which is the best way a pregnant woman can avoid having a low birth weight infant: "Eating all natural foods or brushing her teeth?" Which is more likely to kill you: "A diet high in natural fats or a diet high in additives?" The answers to these questions may really surprise you. Thats because the American public has been misdirected. We have substituted myths, snake oil and false advertising for basic good sense and physical hygiene. This book is a refreshing and easy-to-use guide for being naturally healthy and happy again.
