Titolo: Ecomstation e JFS

Anche se e' un po lungo mi sembra interessante, lo ho appena letto su
warpcast:
Serenity Systems announced today that it has reached a new agreement
with IBM regarding software rights associated with eComStation (eCS).
Specifically, the new agreement calls for the Journaling File System
(JFS), once available only in the eCS Professional product, or as a
fee based optional feature, will now become part of the eCS base
product with no change in product pricing.
"We were able to convince IBM to let us include JFS with no increase
in price and we are passing the new functions to the user, along with
significant cost savings." said Bob St.John, Director of Business
Development for Serenity Systems.
Executive Director Kim Cheung added, "Today, the size of disks used
in all PCs warrants a JFS implementation. But there's more. JFS has
stronger caching capabilities than HPFS. eCS has to support the Java
environment, including IBM's Java 1.3 implementation which is also
part of the eCS GA product, and the direction to servlets launched by
products like Websphere. 
"To have a responsive system" continued Cheung "directed at
e-commerce and Internet style computing, JFS is pivotal. IBM agreed
that JFS makes the products more consistent with the direction of the
industry."
St.John continued, "We're delighted with the way IBM has been
supporting us. eCS continues to increase its value to the industry
and we are able to hold the line on costs."
For those customers who have ordered the eCS Professional, or the JFS
feature, an adjustment will be made. JFS is planned to ship in the
Preview product, which is expected to begin distribution the week of
September 25.
While JFS will make it into the Preview version of the product, the
GA version will also include Java 1.3, and refreshes of TCP/IP 4.3.1
and Netscape 4.61. These features may be downloadable to registered
users of the Upgrade Protection Program.

Bob

Interessante mi sembra il secondo paragrafo dove dice che il JFS sara'
disponibile per tutte le versioni, quindi anche per la base e la upgrade,
credo potrebbe essere  un buon motivo per farci un pensierino per chi non lo
ha ancora ordinato.
