"So much bs to dig through." - Oh the irony!

Talking of time, Wand's time is yet to come, at the moment just a invention looking for more applications and waiting for the infrastructure to enable greater market penetration.

[melton john] 28/9/2017 07:54

I have other demands on my time.

[melton john] 28/9/2017 07:53

Well it's all smoke and mirrors until you find detail written for people who have to make it work. So much bs to dig through. I can wait for an entry at the right price, not £30 or £8. Take your profit and come back then.

Well if you don't know that then.....!

How long have you been warning but simultaneously, admitting you want to buy in?

1316....July?

[melton john] 28/9/2017 07:42

What timing, Do explain.

[hazl] 28/9/2017 07:40

Sure the market is a bit wobbly at present I'm not denying it....
but you have been waiting a long time to be right....

[hazl] 28/9/2017 07:37

Pity about your timing MJ.....

You just need to be able to read redface, plenty of information on Wandisco if you look. Do your own research.

this will be interesting, we'll be able to see customer reviews as / when they come in - assuming anyone bothers to post them.

Just a thought - Wandisco, IBM, Amazon & Microsoft should consider recruiting some of the hi tech experts from this board.

[kemche] 27/9/2017 16:59

So buttocks - basically!

Statically speaking - in a latent FTTP way of course.

I still can't hear you, and as reposting old stuff appears to be ok

Interesting RNS - suggests a business case for a WAND solution over sever back up and associated servicing costs for Enterprises. Anyone know of an equally effective solution for this problem ?

To answer your query about server back-up on an enterprise system, I assume you would be talking about a company with a traditional mix of sales order entry, production management, CAD/CAM, CRM, inventory management, accounts, billing, payroll, email etc.
Wandisco is aimed at a different market using very large databases for example census information, medical records etc. This data is predominantly read only for the purpose of statistical analysis and so the rate of change requiring replication is smaller than the data in a typical enterprise system. As mentioned earlier the rate of change of data cannot exceed the network bandwidth to other cluster members or the consistency cannot be guaranteed.

Will also claim that I am filtered - but curiosity will get the better of him!

Nice video in Wandisco's latest tweet:

[tickboo] 27/9/2017 15:12

What link?

[melton john] 27/9/2017 15:09

Well as I said before, your "techie" appears misinformed.
I took the trouble to follow the link you posted, and that's what it says.

Research, do your research.

Reposting info from genuine techies -I spoke to a techie re spanner and fusion and this is what he said and then emailed -So Spanner is a distributed OLTP database built by Google as an alternative to existing OLTP databases such as postgres and mysql and relies on proprietary infrastructure. Its only unique capability is its ability to support database transactions, and thereby its market is extremely limited. Fusion, on the other hand, is a general purpose replication platform that can replicate data between Cloud and on-premise storage systems of any kind. With its plugin architecture, Fusion is applicable to almost all Cloud workloads.In answer to your second question Fusion does not rely on, or need local networks or fibre end-to-end in order to operate correctly. In fact, their architecture eschews the use of clocks and works without regard to latency between nodes. It looks to have been deployed in all kinds of WAN links, including satellite based links with limited bandwidth and extremely high latencies. The fact they guarantee consistency even over completely unreliable networks says it all.
