IBM Keeps CGIDEV2 Alive, Considers Open Source
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
Perhaps no one was as surprised as Jim Herring, the director of product management and business operations in the iSeries Division, about the commotion and controversy surrounding the CGIDEV2 development tool that has erupted in the past few weeks. Like many of us in the iSeries community, Herring--who managed the integration of the Apache Web server into the iSeries platform--was aware that the Client Technology Center in Rochester had created the CGIDEV2 for internal use by IBM Global Services.

The i5 Shows Linear Scalability on SAP Benchmark
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
IBM has shied away from running SAP's Sales and Distribution (SD) transaction processing benchmark on the i5 servers, and has instead tried to stake a claim over on its Business Information Warehouse (BW) benchmark, which measures the data warehousing performance of the machine running SAP's software for performing that function. While results on the SD test would be nice for comparison shopping, a new result on the i5 servers does a different and equally useful thing: it demonstrates that the i5, like the p5, is able to scale linearly on real applications.

As I See It: Frame and Reframe
by Victor Rozek
Wisdom is often a recycled thing; discovered and rediscovered, translated, expanded, and finally adopted as one's own. The ancient Talmud tells us that "We do not see the world as it is, we see the world as we are." Cognitive science calls it "framing."

It's the cognitive mechanism through which we make meaning of what is. READ MORE >
