- IPv6 And DNS On The Interopnet
By Mike Fratto, Editor
The early planning work on Interop is moving along. Glenn Evans, who is managing the Interopnet and characterizes the position (with tongue firmly planted in cheek) as 'benevolent dictator', and the rest of the NOC team has the daunting task of building and maintaining a production network for attendees and exhibitors as well as providing the infrastructure to demo new technologies. At this early stage, work is being done to figure out what to offer to the show attendees and exhibitors. "If Interopnet builds it, user will come" is not a given. Here is where they are now.

- IBM's Watson: A Watershed Event For Information Technology--And For Society
By David Hill
On the surface, Watson, IBM's "Jeopardy"-playing computer system, is impressive in its ability to answer complex, ambiguous questions expressed in natural language. In fact, Watson will likely be a centerpiece for IBM's centennial celebration in June. But Watson is more than just an impressive computing system. In fact, in the future, after Watson's technology is used and deployed in multiple ways, we expect this week's Jeopardy matches will be seen as a historic event in information technology and big data and analytics that also portends much for society in general.

- Snapshots And Backups Part Deux
By Howard Marks
In What Is A Backup?, I compared conventional backups to local snapshots, concluding that restoring data faster using backups is easier when you know where it was last. With conventional backups, an administrator, after cursing under his breath and wishing he could just say no to the CFO, could search the catalog database for *smith*.xls in Finance and locate the file. Since local snapshots don't include catalogs, it's harder to restore the data that disappeared sometime last summer. But there are more issues around using local snapshots for backup.
