[Novalug] Tech Sessions @ Red Hat Tysons

[Ken Kauffman]

Just some thoughts ...

I would like to see something that RedHat has identified as a hot area for
them -- unless virtualization is one of RedHat's objectives as well.  Maybe
identifying and clarifying how RedHat is a better value than say perhaps a
SuSE offering.  Those differences and tools would be interesting to me as
well.

For instance,  tuning a RedHat system for different targets is of interest
to me.  Plus, explaining the concepts of each tuning element.  For instance,
there is a large number of changes that are made before an Oracle database
is applied to a RedHat system.  This prepares it to handle the resources
required by the database to perform optimally.

For those interested in virtualization, how will you be applying it in your
daily work activities? Or is it really just something you're interested in
that nobody explained to you and perhaps never grasped?  There is a major
difference in value as I see it between those two ideas.
