    Interesting article

    Question though. With Basildon being chav central as it is, (second only to Southend on Sea for window lickers-per-capita), is the NYSE sure they picked the best location for their uk data centre?

      nufink rong wif basvegas baby

      exchanges are all about latency. basvegas is close to london geographically so minimises latency while being cheap for the sort of land needed for massive datacenters.

    Meanwhile in Real Worlds, Virtual Help Arrives to Deliver the Provision of Invisible AIR&dDs*

    "The cloud is designed for batch processing for statements, regulatory filings, testing of algorithms against historical data and the prior day's trading data, and other analytics where I/O latency is not crucial."

    And the design is vital to try and keep the Ponzis, which are openly trading their dodgy products and services, derivatives and futures on the trading market boards, which are fictionally enhanced to suggest great wealth being driven and generated, rather than is the actual sad and bad and mad reality, crippling debt incurred and foreign national wealths virtually stolen, churning.

    As is evidenced by this blatant Patent application ? ....... "A simulated work environment for teaching business skills to participants through a fictional company with organizational roles filled by the participants, information about the initial status of the company, a communication link through which the participants can be given information or communicate, and an objective that the participants must achieve within the simulated work environment" ...... http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PG01&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=%2220070156421%22.PGNR.&OS=DN/20070156421&RS=DN/20070156421

    Methinks the Great Capitalist Dream Game needs a fab tweak or two, or three, or more, if it is survive in Live Operational Virtual Environments with Virtual Machine Control of Clouds Hosting Advanced Operating Systems.

    The Madness would be to imagine that nothing needs changing and that all can remain much the same as it is, whenever everyone knows that progress always provides something completely different to energise imagination into industry and innovative supply of future needs and feeds and seeds.

    * Echt waar! Do not allow your ignorance to fool you with debilitating disbelief just because so much is presently beyond your ken. For others is IT simply no problem at all, to always be able to do exactly as is said and universally shared.
