Virtual Ryan

A quick introduction

*tap* *tap* Is this thing on?

I just created my blog, so this is just a quick entry to figure out how this blogging thing works

I'll do the usual introduction thing, and tell you a bit about my history...

I started at Sun in January 2001, soon after graduation from college with a BS in Computer Engineering.

For five years or so, I did a lot of work on SPARC systems in ECC error recovery and fault management. I worked on the initial implementation of Predictive Self Healing and a few other projects. I also spent around 20 months in the SPARC sustaining group.

Late last year, I decided I wanted to get some experience in some other technologies out there, so I transferred to the Kernel Virtualization group [hence the blog name] and began working on the Xen project.

I've done work in a variety of areas in this project, but I think I'll leave that description for a later entry.

In my spare time, I ejoy playing video games (current time sink: Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion), and I also sing in a choir (baritone/bass).

So, now I can say I've joined the 21st century and posted a blog. I hope I didn't bore you too much.
