    SNIA SpeedConf and Las Vegas

    Hi, last year was a busy one, but just because we worked in really cool projects and was very, very exciting! I should be at Las Vegas from May 05-09, and in Santa Clara from Jun 10-12. In Santa Clara I will be presenting one of the solutions we developed last year here, and if you have the opportunity to attend, it will be great to drink some beers with old ...

    Lights out!

    New year, new plans, that's life! And I really like this feeling of brand new possibilities and chances, paths... I came from vacation a few days ago, and it was a great time with my family and friends. Time to think about the future too, and what I can explore in this new year that is just starting! I'm going to the fifth year here at São Paulo, and it's really ...

    Configuring Log.IO server to listen just on localhost…

    I could not find a built-in way of doing so, then I did need to patch some files, and will write here maybe help others and is a good way to remember myself... The harvest.conf file has the 'port' and 'server' variables so you can configure the log.io-harvest server to listen on specific host/port pairs. But the log.io-server does not. The server.conf file just have a comment before the ...

    What skills makes a F1 Driver the best?

    I would say the following: 1) Flying lap This is raw speed, and can be measured by how many pole positions the driver has, fatest laps in race, who was his/her team mate, and consistency over the years (eg: he could had the best car in one year, and had no pole in other years). 2) Start The great driver must know how to start a race.

In Santa Clara I will be presenting one of the solutions we developed last year here, and if you have the opportunity to attend, it will be great to drink some beers with old friends.

The agenda for the first SpeedConf (Storage Plumbing and Data Engineering Conference), you can find here.

Lights out!

New year, new plans, that’s life! And I really like this feeling of brand new possibilities and chances, paths… I came from vacation a few days ago, and it was a great time with my family and friends. Time to think about the future too, and what I can explore in this new year that is just starting! I’m going to the fifth year here at São Paulo, and it’s really the time to review things and the plans that will take us from here to there.

One of my objectives for this year, is to really come back to my blog duties, and explore the new technologies I’m working on, writing and discussing it with you. Others I will try to share with you as I go forward and everythings gets more mature…

The second was a new…

Configuring Log.IO server to listen just on localhost…

I could not find a built-in way of doing so, then I did need to patch some files, and will write here maybe help others and is a good way to remember myself… The harvest.conf file has the “port” and “server” variables so you can configure the log.io-harvest server to listen on specific host/port pairs. But the log.io-server does not. The server.conf file just have a comment before the configuration of the “port” parameter, and I did think that maybe without “saying” that configure a specific host was possible, I could try to add a “host: ’127.0.0.1′,” line and it would work… well, did not. The solution was to find the right files to understand what exactly were the procedures called and etc. Well, I really do not have any familiarity with node.js, and I’m not proud of it….

Hamilton on Mercedes for 2013…

I’m a big fan of Formula 1, and a big fan of Lewis Hamilton (who reads my posts about F1 or my twitter account, knows that). And today after all the news about his move next year from Mclaren to Mercedes, I could read a lot of non-sense on some “specialized” sites…

So I think I can write my “non-sense” on my blog too. The only difference is that my “non-sense” will be based on numbers. Everyone is saying the same thing, that Lewis is switching from a team that won many races to a team that won just once in three years (one this year with Rosberg). Well, seems like nobody understands or do not want to understand that…

What skills makes a F1 Driver the best?

I would say the following:

1) Flying lap This is raw speed, and can be measured by how many pole positions the driver has, fatest laps in race, who was his/her team mate, and consistency over the years (eg: he could had the best car in one year, and had no pole in other years). 2) Start The great driver must know how to start a race. How many overtakes is able to do in the first lap. How the driver can avoid contact and not get out of the race on the first lap. 3) Overtaking This is what racing is all about, and what spectators are hoping to watch in every grand prix! The real driver must know how to overtake: from the inside, from the outside, low speed corners, right speed ones, and…
