My first podcast

I recorded some thoughts for David that he’s posted on Joyeur, Joyent’s blog. He called it “Side of Mayo: Episode 1″, which I suppose implies I’m going to be doing more of these.

Topics include some F5 load balancer lovin’, OpenSolaris iSCSI target disapointment, with some GPL talk thrown in for good measure. It’s worth noting that I recorded this a month ago when we’d just finished running the iSCSI target through its paces and just couldn’t go forward with it as much as we really wanted to keep with our Thumper-backed ZFS/OpenSolaris architecture throughout. You can be sure, though, that we haven’t given up on zvol-based network block storage! Quite the opposite, actually, and we’ll be thrilled when it’s ready for prime time.
