MySQL Enterprise不再提供Source的Tar包发布！

这是之前就有预见的一件事情了！
MySQL宣布他的版本分裂计划之后就可以预见的一个事件，不过看来积极准备IPO的MySQL公司也未见多么高明和大度，纵观OpenSource商业公司最有原则的还是伟大的红帽（RedHat)，一如既往的提供所有的Source Code，而且是方便的SRPMS方式！
关于MySQL这个事件的讨论和分歧看来在所难免，只是不要最后搞得MySQL的社区分裂了，那个就不是很好！不过现在开始考虑Postgres了！为没有MySQL用的那一天做好准备吧！
MySQL的声明很奇怪，既要宣布不再发布MySQL企业版的源代码版本而又要讨好社区说什么社区版本不会有功能和稳定性上的问题，看着不是很舒服！不过话说回来，这是MySQL公司纯粹的商业行为，Open Source软件走到今天，太多的涉及到商业中，这种局面把很多理想的东西混搅在商业的利益中，看似一堆乱麻，谁能理清楚和说清楚呢？GPLv3的发布过程就是一个实例！最终RMS和FSF还是向商业社会进行妥协！
可以预见的将来，Open Source世界将会有越来越多的MySQL公司这样的宣告，不知道对大家是好事还是坏事？
MySQL Close its Source.

What is DevOPS?

Image
What is DevOPS? As be a DevOPS engineer more than five years in the past, I was always asked what is DevOPS or what is a DevOPS role or what should a DevOPS Engineer do? Or even question like how to be a good DevOPS? What? How? should be the most two frequently questions from almost all organizations. As I am working with  Amazon Web Service  for a long time with my DevOPS career, I tried to get answers from AWS guys frist as they have a special section about AWS DevOPS, also they have AWS DevOPS certificate cources, even though I never try such cources. This is the first page said about DevOPS on AWS DevOPS to answer "What is DevOPS?", DevOps is the combination of cultural philosophies, practices, and tools that increases an organization’s ability to deliver applications and services at high velocity: evolving and improving products at a faster pace than organizations using traditional software development and infrastructure management processes. This speed enable...

RPM Build Tips!

Now, I am trying to build a Linux system based on the Fedora Core Release! Working with the RPM system in deep.The unpackaged file terminate the build process under RPM 4.x! Unpackaged files message in RPM-4.1 and following RPM version 4.1 and following demonstrate a new behaviour in the rpmbuild process. Previously, a build process might place any number of files, say in the %install stanza, when running the make install part of a Makefile , in the customary /var/tmp/%{name}-root/ BuildRoot (the RPM_BUILD_ROOT ). Once through that part of the Makefile , it can then completely ignore these files in the %files binary packaging stanza. This often happens when an upstream maintainer adds, or deletes items from new directory spurs in the make install , and the change might be missed during an unattended or automated rebuild. This option permits careful packagers to cross check the quality of their packaging. So as a cross check, /usr/lib/rpm/check-files is now enabled during ...
