Mar 24: Google Summer of Code 2009


The time is just running and it's already time, again, for students to apply for this year's Google Summer of Code program. PHP and MySQL are among the list of 150 participating organizations. So if you're a student and are interested to learn how OpenSource works, do some networking with some famous people or just want a Google T-Shirt it's your time to take a look at the different idea pages (PHP, MySQL, others) or come up with an own idea and apply. Oh if accepted you even can earn some money as part of the program ...
Mar 22: What's so special about Sun engineers?
Sun recently introduced their Amber Road storage systems which act like a storage appliance with a Web-Interface for configuration and analytics. Due to the power of DTrace combined with an AJAX web-inerface, you have the ability to really see what's going on. Brendan Gregg, the engineer who's famous for screaming at his storage systems, recently published a new blog posting giving some insights on the heat maps created by these systems. But Sun engineers won't be Sun engineers if they don't have weird ideas. So what about sending text messages to the analytics software? - Scroll to the bottom of Brendan's blog to see what I mean.
