[CALUG] Red Hat Summit 2012 "Best Of" Presentations/Videos ...

[Bryan J Smith]

Red Hat has put up some of its "Best Of" Presentations from Summit
2012. [1]  You'll also find the associated videos on-line as well (the
"Best Of" videos are sandwiched in the middle). [2]

There's a lot of "technical meat" in some of these presentations that
still apply to upstream developments as much as the more
trailing-edge, sustaining engineering Red Hat solutions.  Several on
Thursday include ...
- Gluster (Red Hat Storage)
- KVM (including benchmarks/scalability, often sought after by many)
- Tuning (via Woodman et al.'s excellent 2-part presentation)

The last slidedeck and 2-part video on tuning really dives into a lot
of late kernel 2.6.32+ developments that are applicable to tuning on
enterprise systems, especially multi-socket NUMA systems.  I often
recommend RH442 for seasoned Linux administrators, and this
presentation covers some of the meat that is also covered in that
class.

For those following Red Hat solution offerings (or "downstream"
efforts based on Red Hat's sustaining engineering releases like
"Enterprise Linux Rebuilds"), including RHEV, JBoss EAP6 (based on
Community JBoss AS 7) and RHEL 5, 6 and forthcoming 7, Friday has some
history+roadmap technical details for those interested as well.

Again, just FYI, for those interested.
