Re: iSeries public WEB access, PCI security issues

Matt,

We were talking about distributed application architecture. But you switched the conversation to hardware redundancy. Foul play. Let's say the IBM i server is synchronized with a remote backup to recover quickly from catastrophic hardware failure.

Were you ever going to get around to supporting your claim that Wintel servers can run thousands of applications "just like i"?

Your raid controller just failed on your single i box that runs EVERYTHING.  Instead of just one of the web front ends failing, your whole system just went down.  Hmm.  Sounds like poor infrastructure design.

Theres your rebuttal.
