| Topic | Discovering Open High Availability Cluster |
| Date | Tuesday August 14th |
| Time | 7:00pm onwards |
| Location | Sun Microsystems offices, East Point Business Park |
| Directions | here |
This month, we're lucky to have Nick Solter, from the Open HA Cluster community visiting Dublin who will give us a talk about Open HA Cluster, which forms the basis of one of the newer communities on opensolaris.org.
Solaris Cluster, Sun's high-availability cluster software, is going
open-source! This presentation will first give an overview of High
Availability software and Solaris Cluster, and demonstrate how Open HA
Cluster can be used with OpenSolaris and the Apache webserver to provide
higher availability for web services.
Nick's talk will next describe the
open-source roadmap, give an overview of the source code, and walk
through the steps to download, compile, install, and play with Open HA
Cluster and Cluster Express. The talk will conclude with a description
of the contribution process and some sample projects for community
participation.
As usual we'll also be doing the roundup of news since our last talk, and will be adding audio from this meeting to our podcast
