New Fast400 Reseller Is Raring to Go
by Timothy Prickett Morgan
If you thought the controversy surrounding the Fast400 green-screen governor buster would go away with the advent of the new server packaging of OS/400 with V5R2 in January 2003, and with i5/OS V5R3 in May 2004, or with the revelation of a lawsuit between IBM and Jim Stracka (the man behind Tiger Tools, which launched the Fast400 tools in late 2001), you were wrong. The controversy is set to explode again as Stracka has hired a new company to sell Fast400 in the Americas region. READ MORE >

As I See It: Commoditizing Privacy
by Victor Rozek
The reason why the word "privacy" doesn't appear in the Constitution or the Bill of Rights is probably that those noble documents were written before computers were invented. It's impossible to know what the Founding Fathers would have thought about machines with such extraordinary capacities, but my guess is that they would have viewed them with a combination of awe and suspicion. The potential for abuse by governing authorities would certainly have concerned them, and with good reason. If privacy was a superhero, a computer would be its archvillain. READ MORE >

It's Shocking!!!
The number of companies that spend a ton of money on high availability software that just doesn't cut it. Objects don't stay synchronized, systems bog down, switchovers are difficult, and the expense is enormous.
But it's different with iTera's Echo2 High Availability. Just ask our customers. In fact, many of them abandoned their old HA product and switched to Echo2.
