About
I’ve worked with software and with computers for a while now. Long enough to sometimes be useful but not so long as to have lost interest.
My experiences of late have largely focused around distributed data storage, in particular Oracle Coherence, and this has inevitably shaped my understanding of systems, so keep that in mind as you read on.
The articles above are those that are recent or popular. There are a variety of other articles, categorised to the right and more traditional blog entries below.
You can read a little more about me here.
