It's my third time going to MIMOS just to supervise the installation of the IBM Blade Center H.
For those who don't know, a Blade Center is categorized as high end server. My company had this contract to provide and maintain the Blade Center for MIMOS for 3 years. The total stuffs adds up to a sum of RM 3.6M. That's the most expensive machine that I've ever handled and helped to install. Each BladeCenter will have 14 blades, each blades are equipped with 2 dual core Opterons and 16GB of ECC RAM. Imagine the processing power that each of the BladeCenter have.
The 7 BladeCenters will be used in the Grid Computing project. The one me and my half time superior will be researching on. Well, I'll going to have a lot of readings on SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) to do before going to the development part. Meanwhile, at the same time, I have to deploy a test machine for the IBFM application internationalization project as we need to do some serious testing before going live and deliver it to Vietnam. Raya is around the corner now and with all that holidays, I'll have pretty limited time work on it. This will be really messy.
Ok. that's all the input for today. Gotta go or else I'll have to squeeze myself through the heavy traffic to get home.
