Yahoo! open sources uber web server

,----[ Quote ]
| Yahoo! has open sourced the back-end
| software platform that underpins the
| company's webmail client and countless
| other applications offered up across its
| sweeping web portal.
|
| Known as Traffic Server, the platform
| handles general edge caching, edge
| processing, and load balancing at Yahoo!,
| but it's also used to manage traffic on the
| company's internal storage and server-
| virtualization services.

Is Cloud Computing Safe for Business? Yes and No...

,----[ Quote ]
| It's not only "homogeneous", it's based
| almost entirely on open source software (as
| far as we can tell), with all that this
| implies for robustness. So, to that extent,
| it's probably true that for many companies,
| the server side of cloud computing is
| indeed relatively safe. But if they're
| still using Windows with all its
| vulnerabilities to access those servers,
| much of that security is squandered.
| Perhaps that's why Google is coming out
| with its Linux-based Chrome operating
| system...

Yahoo releases parallel software

,----[ Quote ]
| Web search pioneer Yahoo officially released its source code for Hadoop, a
| parallel programming framework many see as the key ingredient for cloud
| computing services. The software could fuel a broad class of future Web-based
| applications, said an IBM executive at the second-annual Hadoop Summit.
