If you over-specify, you have excess computer power or disk - you are wasting money. If you under-specify, you may be forced to raid your rainy day budget and order new hardware A primary selling point of Cloud Computing is...

More on Hating Agents

2008-02-13 14:54:00 by Dr Anton Chuvakin in Anton Chuvakin Blog -
 
I responded to a question about using agents for log collection on a mailing list (semi-public); I think this content also begs to be blogged. So Agents for log collection pros and cons agents are unavoidable in some cases (nowadays such cases are few and far between deployed agent can secure the log data in transit from its source to a log...
