Dang it, guys! You are definitely teasing people around! I am dying with wish to have the same glass of beer and to swallow it with one gulp!

Now to the important question: where were the beer photos taken?

“Joyent Containers have persistent storage, a single IP address, and don’t require uploading machine images [what you currently do at EC2]. A Joyent Container works just like a you would expect a dedicated server to work.”

‘Tis the truth.

First, I want the boot of beer. That’s just cool….

Second, one thing people aren’t really talking about (other than off-hand mentions of iSCSI) is how they are getting the storage to users. Is this some inherent part of ZFS I just don’t see or are people using NFS or something annoying like that to export their storage? How are you taking it to the X4100’s, for example.

We’ve been looking at the X4500 since it came out, it looks great, but it needs some nice iSCSI code so we can just send off LUNs to our machines.

It would give some of the iSCSI players a serious run for their money I think…
