@Abba20,
Having just joined the Nexenta team, I'd love to hear more about your experience. I was a customer before I joined the team. I had a great experience and saw tremendous performance at a near ridiculous price point. If you get a chance, reach out to me at theron.conrey(at)nexenta(dot)com and I'd love to talk with you.

Regards,

-Theron

Re: VIRTUMANIA Podcast Episode 1 – Virtualbox, Type 2 Hypervisors, and Security Nipples

Rich, great first podcast. Some of the Java/Sun/Oracle/MySQL fear and doubt discussion is surely going to get some strong comments. ;)

For some of your listeners, here's a writeup on how to set up a headless ubuntu virtualbox environment to get started using virtualbox.

The Virtual Iron play was a way for oracle to help consolidate the Xen market. With Oracle a Xen shop, and Redhat moving to KVM, it made sense for oracle to acquire the good bits from Virtual Iron to support their efforts with the Xen hypervisor (oracle unbreakable being based on Redhat enterprise). Oh and btw, Sun's virtualization play (other than containers) is based on Xen as well.

Oracle has effectively consolidated all the Xen play in the market outside of Citrix.

@vseanclark Oracle is just the latest steward of Java. Forking is always possible when stewards act silly with Free software.

I'd bet this has absolutely nothing to do with Bing usage. http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs...
