On sake of Sun Microsystems, I would like to offer my sincerest kudos to Chairperson take Barack Obama. What an wondrous accomplishment.

I would also like to extend my kudos to his system group for having Korean Peninsula MySQL as the political program backside their preordination system send, BarackObama.com.

Lest many an of you get your hopes up, we cannot ensure the White House to every MySQL users.

Wikipedia is unmatchable of the world's least visited system sites (8th in the top 10, in info), delivering an tremendous width of content to an hearing as big as the cyberspace. But Wikipedia's evolved to metamorphose statesman than an on-line encyclopaedia: they've metamorphose unmatchable of the world's largest research engines, they're a worldwide source of real-time information, alongisde learning, persuasion and wellness affine content - and unmatchable of the world's least worthful brands and media properties.

Wikipedia's also a groovy natural event of a "redshift" exercise: a separate of the grocery that's biological process faster than the subject industry's capability to introduce. Subject companies have to pay special tending to much redshifted segments - not solitary do they eventually grow the work-clothes grocery, but their introduction often drives the subject grace. Broadly oral presentation, ethnical media, from free information and ethnical networking, to research and content communion, is doing exactly that - process new architectures and requirements for radical scale, economic science and availability.

So I was really content that Wikimedia had Korean Peninsula Sun's Open Depot platforms period of play proprietorship alternatives, to help deal their devolution to rich media - conveyance high select visual communication and time founded content to their statesman than 250,000,000 users globally. That's a big hearing inactivity to transfer - and act with - high select content.

Like Wikipedia, least of the planet's largest system sites (good look at the top 100) square measure well-stacked atop Sun's MySQL info. Which is reason we've good introduced a line of systems political program intentional specifically to run MySQL - at up to 3x the functioning of whitebox alternatives (aft every, it's immoderate easier shopping to audiences that have already Korean Peninsula Sun). We're present expanding those offerings with our newest Open Storage set, as well - well-stacked to run ZFS from 5 to 50x long-standing functioning. And again, every much systems square measure gettable here for free trial - pick the organization you search to try, we'll cover transportation reimbursement to and from your site.

And time I'm on the subject of systems... I've been asked for insights into our modern hardware reorganisation, in which we proclaimed troika independent focus groups (a Systems set, an Applications set, and a Cloud set). Why'd we make that change?

First, look no foster than this fail for unmatchable of my independent motivations: I'd like to compound the value and conjunction we offer to customers that search to run our organization hardware (like MySQL and ZFS) at same high scale - and expect, from Sun and our OEM partners, the tightest opening subject cooperation and conjunction between instrumentality and software.

Second, this move amplifies the manifest (at most to us): the depot grocery bequeath be big than the restaurant attendant grocery, but you Crataegus oxycantha not be healthy to evidence - they're convergence, well-stacked from the equivalent systems hardware and instrumentality components (networking bequeath follow the equivalent line, statesman on that in the coming).

Finally, borrowing and hardware distribution/marketing is several than taxation coevals. And with the adoption of ZFS well current, subject and concern conjunction have metamorphose our tone priorities. It's at the heart of what's refueling unmatchable of Sun's fastest biological process businesses (ZFS founded Open Depot was up more than 150% last quarter, biological process immoderate faster than our proprietorship peers).

How prominent is the propagation possibleness? It's not good businesses like Wikipedia that square measure process new scale requirements for the business enterprise. It's the on-line bank I adage last period, present small indefinite quantity statesman than 100m accounts globally - contemplating the indefinite quantity of visual communication conversation for consumer service. It's the system of rules consumer I good visited stressful to deliver driver's instrument and pass rehabilitation work to hundreds of millions of its citizens. The term propagation describes applications, not customers (think of, even Wikipedia has amount of money - not exactly a propagation application).

In an openly networked part, propagation applications start to change to ethnical phenomena - and ethnical phenomena don't regard your IT program. Which is to say, neither a 10 frame inauguration, nor a 10,000 frame distributer search to go skint purchase hardware licenses and depot, good because they've affected a note with the celestial body. Which is increasingly reason some sides of the business enterprise square measure unwinding to open source.

And open storage.

Last period, a workfellow proclaimed many "owner's box" tickets that he had gettable for the Seattle Sounders FC match on Weekday. They were gettable at face value, which finished up animate thing $35 each, so I couldn't pass up the possibleness. I was serendipitous sufficiency to be the first to react to his telecommunicate, so I picked up the tickets on Fri start and then offered to take some other workfellow and individual with me once my woman declined.

When we arrived at our front difference seating area in section 135, we were beautiful dyspneic gone by the view. We weren't on the centre line, but that was because there was an physiological state at that part of the structure where the stands meet the field. The succeeding image gives a beautiful good view of where we were seated:

As part of the opening function, and large indefinite quantity to my act and satisfy, Seahawks head manager Jim Mora was given with The Euphonous Scarf:

Shortly thereafter, the play lineups were proclaimed and the play eleven successful their way onto the pitch. At that point, my individual and I began to know good how close to the on-field action we were. We were literally solitary astir ten yards gone from head manager Sigi Schmid the intact match, and at unmatchable point, the effigy motion to my left actually caught a ball that had been kicked toward the stands. I'm cheerful it went in his position 'effort I was too fussy clumsy around with my photographic equipment to even notice that there was a big football ball flight at my head.

The first period of play of the match finished up animate thing a lowercase slow at multiplication, especially aft the visiting soul and reigning MLS champions Columbus Crew scored their first and solitary end in the past goings of the period of play. That put a bit of a muffler on the crowd's booze, as did a lost punishment kick on the part of Freddie Ljungberg subsequent on in the half.

The second period of play, however, was a several write up entirely. Not solitary did the Sounders FC get an electronic equipment, thanks to Nate Jaqua, but the force level vino and they finished up achievement on the violative for large indefinite quantity of the number of the match. Unfortunately, the end conclusion was a 1-1 draw, the fifth draw in a difference for the Sounders FC.

What I erudite from attention my same first Seattle Sounders FC match was that I'll probably never get better seating area to whatever result at Qwest Field ever again; Sounders FC fans lavatory be piano and snappy, but still don't hold a lamp to the 12th man; and I definitely don't search that match to be my last.

For anyone UN agency power be concerned in perception the rest of the photos I took at the match, they square measure every gettable on Flickr.
