No, I am not making that up.

Until fairly recently, I was pretty ignorant of clustering hardware and software. But, thanks to on-the-job experience, that’s changing! So, now, I know about SANs, and Network Attached Storage, and even iSCSI. Now, there’s something new: HyperSCSI. According to this article on Byte and Switch, it’s the next Big Thing. Only, no one knows about it. It’s been around for a bit and is very similar to iSCSI, though it has some different advantages and disadvantages. In any case, you can impress your co-workers by reading the story and casually mentioning it around the water cooler. (Do people still talk around water coolers? I always end up shouting in the the server room.)
