Join us as we explore the latest trends of High Availability Cluster technologies, as well as key insights from HA Clusters community members, technologists, and users of High Availability and Business Continuity software. Learn how to increase the availability of your favorite applications from blogs to enterprise level infrastructure. If you are a student, you may want to consider the industrial-strength Open HA Cluster software for your thesis research. You will also have the unique opportunity to hear one of the featured guest speakers, Dr. David Cheriton, industry expert and professor at Stanford University.

Come, learn, mingle with HA Clusters Community members, network, enjoy free food, and casino games!

If you are not going to be in San Francisco, you could still participate by following the technical sessions on twitter and ustream.

Solaris Cluster is now supported with the latest in Intel technology: the Sun Fire x4170 (1U) and x4270/x4275 (2U) leading-edge x64 servers.

Included in the latest platform portfolio is the Sun Blade x6270 Intel Xeon 5500 Nehalem Constellation blade. The new servers support a slew of features, such as double the compute threads (16 Hyper-Threads) and more memory than before at 144GB.
With the addition of PCIe Gen 2, larger storage capacities can be achieved with double the I/O. This is all wrapped around a package that includes SAS, SATA, and flash-based Solid State Disks (SSD).

Combine this with Solaris and Solaris Cluster, and you've got a scalable architecture for multi-threaded applications with mission-critical capability.

Solaris Cluster configurations on x4170, x4270, and x4275, along with the x6270, are now supported with the following Solaris Cluster releases and configurations: 

* Solaris                    Solaris 10
* Solaris Cluster         Solaris Cluster 3.2

* 8-Node support
* N*N
* 8-Node N+1
* 8-Node Cluster Pairs * 8 Node Pair + N
* 8-Node Campus Cluster

Feel free to contact me or your sales representative for more detailed information!

Hi,

If by any chance you are at the MySQL user conference in Santa Clara conference center, there are some great possibilities to see MySQL and Solaris Cluster in action. We have a demo at the exhibition hall, where you can see MySQL with zone cluster and MySQL with SC Geographic Edition.

I will host a birds of a feather at Wednesday 4/22/09 evening in meeting room 205 at 7 pm. The Title is "Configuring MySQL in Open HA Cluster, an Easy Exercise" check out the details here.  I will give a presentation at Thursday 4/23/09 morning 10:50 in Ballroom G, the title is "Solutions for High Availability and Disaster Recovery with MySQL". Check out the details here. 

I hope to see you there in person.
