[Info-vax] Discover 2016 London Tech talk DTS

[Baldrick]

Well I suppose I should give myself a plug!

Next week as part of the Connect Tech Talks, I'm giving a presentation entitled "Disaster Tolerant Systems keeping the UK Healthy" (Wednesday 30th).

What I'm actually doing - in 30 minutes - is extolling the virtues of clustering, volume shadowing, quorum, and distributed locking.

OK I'm glossing over the details, squishing a 5 day course into 30 minutes is a tall order but the idea is to give attendees a flavour of what it can do, how, and a smidgin of the technicalities. Oh, and by the way IT'S VMS!

I'm describing two real world systems, split site clusters, and some real life examples of how they are managed.

balders.

ps. the other day i came across a service desk operative who commented on my internal chat status 'this is a sticker situation than when sticky the stick insect got stuck on a sticky bun' (blackadder) and i was obliged to guide her towards the comedy masterpiece. its almost like saying who is monty python?
