There is a driving force more powerful than steam, electricity and nuclear power: the will.
To me this feels like if you hit a big enough pot hole you'd be doing a endo on this easier than a ridgid bike since your handlebars are dropping down while your bike goes up. I have only seen this on one bike in my entire life back in the 90's and it seems to never really taken off.

A Softride stem will make the riding easier on your hands, while not slowing you down as much as a suspension fork. On the other hand, the stem will do little to help you climb an obstacle such as a curb.
Wow, I'm surprised that these are still available. I thought they had been discontinued a long time ago.
Softride got out of bicycle components ages ago. The OP's link is to an out of date page.
I used a Softride stem for a while, useful but annoying when it topped out and I eventually wore out the bushes. Good luck finding a NOS stem.
There are plenty of them appearing on Ebay, often new. In fact, it looked for a while that Softride continued to supply some stems to the market, at low pace and outside of the dealer network. Buying on Ebay, however, one needs to be careful. There has been a dishonest seller who offered inferior Tranz-X stems, without parallelogram, as Softride, for the Softride prices.
Otherwise, there are some new suspension stems out of Taiwan, looking as if equipped with an oil damper, but they have not made it to the US market, as fas as I know.
A suspension stem will always be heavier than a standard stem, so its use on a folder is iffy. You may consider such a stem, if you have problems with hands.
I've had a similar one in my bikebox for several years, got on Ebay. Marked "Advent". Think it was made by Alsop, the people who marketed that beam-style rear suspension. Never figured out how to mount it without affecting the fold. I'd really like to try it, any ideas?
I shore ain't no in-gin-ear but I suspect this is less likely to cause an endo than a suspension fork. This would be a 2nd fulcrum (the first is the front wheel axle) that is further up the load arm than a fork is. So the higher moment of rotation would make the the lever arm shorter, and the rotational force less. In other words the fork dips you down (and forward if more of your weight is in front of the fork) at level of the the knees, the handlebar dips you down and forward at the level of the chest. If they both dip you're probably screwed.
Suspension or not the trick is to keep your weight behind the moment of rotation. So you can lean over the bars going uphill, but not so much going downhill.
Anyway, endos can be fun. Just remember to duck before your face hits the dirt.

So I will keep riding with out suspension

I installed a Softride stem on my Downtube folder. Its a big improvement on the suspension forks found on inexpensive bikes. Its much lighter and easier to maintain (Ive had one on my mountain bike for 15 yrs with no problems) it doesnt change the geometry of a bike that wasnt originally equipped with a suspension fork, its a high quality nicely made product and it is adjustable and able to be re-built (Softride has springs and shims available). It takes the edge off if you are on dirt or poorly maintained roads but dont kid yourself into thinking its going to transform your bike into a real mountain bike (the only folder Ive seen that is really off road worthy is the Airnimal and it costs approx 2,500 USD). Keep in mind you are probably going to have to shim the head tube when you install it and also these stems are available in different lengths (reach) so you have to figure out the right dimensions before you buy. bertiejo
interesting, can it be adjusted or locked off?
Softride verse suspension hub?
Bikes; dual drive Mezzo X2 bullbar previously owned brompton with mods. Also 3 birdies + downtube FS
Best thing ever for Bad chipseal roads or places where you get a lot of that liquid tar seal repair after freeze damage or old school concrete slab roads.
People would always tell me. "Get fuffy supple tires." (The softride worked better).
Once I moved to a new location with better roads it really didn't help much.

If 2012 has taught Travis Gerrits anything, it's that there's no sense worrying about things you can't control.
At times his mental health no doubt benefited from staying true to that mindset, after a torn MCL in January wiped out his freestyle aerial ski season.
"I just tried to stay focused on rehab and setting short-term goals for myself, like being able to reach a certain range of motion (with knee) by such and such a week," recalled the 20-year-old rural Miltonian a sixth-place finisher at the 2011 world championships and a legitimate hopeful for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. "I really didn't dwell on the fact that I was missing my winter season."
Staying positive and giving his injured limb an extra two weeks to heel seems to have been the perfect prescription for a successful comeback — if recent results are any indication.
Showing his old confidence and poise upon returning to the water ramp circuit in late June, Gerrits served notice that he's ready to reclaim his place among the world's best jumpers last week in Switzerland.
With a heightened degree of difficulty incorporated over the past several weeks — in order to prepare for the recently revamped Olympic format — the local aerialist took fourth-place honours at a World Cup water ramp event against many of the serious contenders for 2014.
Not quite catching enough speed for his double full full double full jump — which features five different twists — Gerrits fell just short of the podium.
But he may have gained something even more valuable than a medal in terms of his long-range Olympic bid.
"I'd nailed the jump in training, but not quite in competition. But it was an amazing trip… knowing I was up there with the top finishers who were doing the same jumps I was."
That confidence should serve him well later this year, when he begins what is essentially a two-year qualifying campaign for Sochi — with freestylers able to put their top-two World Cup finishes from both 2012/13 and 2013/14 towards the selection process.
Gerrits hopes to stake his Olympic claim early with one or two podium performances this coming season — a goal he feels is within his reach, especially given his improved landing over the past two seasons.
"If you're not landing (well), you're not winning," noted the Milton District High School graduate, who trains upwards of 30 hours a week — between water ramp practicing, fitness training and trampoline work — during the summer months. "I was jumping well right from the get go (since return) and I think out of the eight or nine World Cups this season, getting onto the podium a couple of times is definitely a realistic goal."
Gerrits is back in action over the Labour Day weekend, with another international water ramp event at his training facility in Lac-Beauport, Quebec. He'll then close out the summer season late next month in Park City, Utah.

"In a time of universal deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act."
— George Orwell
We live in an age — the relativity of truth — in which Orwell's adage seems as dated as monocles or top hats. Just as Darwin's theory of evolution led to Social Darwinism, a philosophy pitting one human being against another with survival of the fittest as the supreme law for success, so Einstein's theory of relativity changed popular philosophy and cultural mores as radically as it did the study of physics.
Just as I took my first sip of beer I was told to turn around.
Outside the Tipping Point Brewing windows on Main Street, heavy snowflakes cascaded upon downtown Waynesville last Wednesday night. Cars cautiously cruised through the intersection, with the snowfall increasing as the minutes ticked by.

Regional Media Bigwig/Network CEO Heads 48th Anvil Awards Jurors
The 48th Anvil Awards is breaking out of tradition and setting many milestones this year. Boasting of a record-breaking number of entries from various organizations, almost 400 entries competed to bring home the prestigious Anvil from the largest premier public relations award-giving body in the country.
The "Oscars of Philippine PR practice" widened its scope from traditional tri-media (television, radio and print) to venture into realm of digital and multi-media. For the first time, the Anvil Awards accepted Digital PR entries as part of the PR programs category, undoubtedly recognizing the growing importance of social media in reaching out to netizens and the interconnected generation of today. As a result of this development, interest heightened among the country's public relations practitioners who acknowledged the power of the digital media and the Internet to get their message across to their customers and the public at large.
To provide a high-level of expertise in appraising for the 48th Anvil Awards, a media heavyweight was appointed as Chairman of the Board of Jurors in the person of Vishnu Mohan, the Chief Executive Officer of Havas Media Asia Pacific.
Acknowledged by peers in the industry as a "champion of digital and mobile," Mohan leads the entire operations for Havas Digital and its network's aggressive investments in resources to build a strong capability in these two areas. Under his wing, Havas Digital which accounts for almost half of the Havas Group in Asia - a media network he set up in 2005 from scratch, has full service digital and mobile capabilities under these brands: Media Contacts (a full-service digital network), Ecselis (performance marketing) and Mobext (mobile marketing). Today, he oversees all of the 40 offices in digital, traditional, sports and entertainment marketing across 25 cities in the region running under the brand names of MPG, Havas Digital and Havas Sports & Entertainment. …

EXCO Resources, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2012 Results
We drilled and completed 9 gross (8.8 net) wells in our Sugg Ranch area during the third quarter 2012 with 89% drilling success. We are currently running one operated rig and plan to drill and complete 36 gross (35.2 net) wells in 2012. Economics for this drilling activity typically have rates-of-return in excess of 50%. In the third quarter, our production averaged approximately 4,100 barrels per day of net oil equivalents which was essentially flat with the third quarter 2011. This average production rate consisted of 1,500 net barrels of oil, 6,900 net Mmcf of natural gas, and 1,400 net barrels of natural gas liquids per day.
Based on industry results surrounding our Permian acreage position, we are continuing to evaluate our shale potential. We have tested both the Wolfcamp and Cline shale formations vertically in several wells and continue to collect and analyze core samples.
Our jointly held midstream company, TGGT, had total throughput averaging approximately 1.5 Bcf per day for the third quarter 2012. TGGT's adjusted EBITDA of $42 million for the third quarter 2012 was a 48% increase over TGGT's adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter 2011. The improvement in EBITDA in the third quarter 2012 is primarily attributable to reduced operating expenses as well as increased throughput from third party producers in the Holly area. TGGT's major focus in the fourth quarter 2012 will be continued reduction of operating expenses through the release of rental units and discontinuation of equipment leases where appropriate. In order to release rental units, TGGT is finalizing the installation and start up of owned treating facilities in the Holly area. In our Shelby area, TGGT's major infrastructure development and capital projects in the Shelby area are concluded for 2012. In the legacy East Texas area, TGGT anticipates increased throughput from customers drilling horizontal Cotton Valley wells.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Review: The Amazing Race - This Is the Worst Thing I've Ever Done in My Life
by Jackie Schnoop, posted Nov 9th 2009 1:47AM
(S15E08) This week we revisited one of the toughest roadblocks ever on The Amazing Race. Back in season six, the same farm with the same roadblock did in one team. Kristy and Lena spent eight hours searching for a clue they never did find. Phil Keoghan came out to them after dark in the field and called an end to their search. If I'm not mistaken, this is the first time the show has repeated a roadblock. And what a doozy to choose! While looking for a clue in a haystack is easier than looking for a needle, there are so many haystacks -- how would our five remaining teams fare? Read on.
Review: The Amazing Race - This is Not My Finest Hour

(S15E07) Poor Ericka. In tonight's episode of The Amazing Race, she didn't look quite like Miss America. Stress will do that to you. It seems each week a team or two make what might be a fatal error in the game. Oh, not something that could kill them -- just one which could lead to being Philiminated. This leg wasn't only tough on Brian and Ericka. One of the Globetrotters had to don a dress. Thankfully, it seemed to be specially tailored to fit him.

(S15E06) One of the many things I learned tonight on The Amazing Race is that Dubai is probably hotter than anyplace I really want to visit. Every team was sweating; every team was complaining. At least those teams who didn't have a clue about where the Persian Gulf is or whether it's a country in and of itself will remember it now. If nothing else but for the heat. Oh. And the way cool six-story water slide into shark infested waters. At least one team will really remember that water slide.
The Amazing Race: Sean Penn Cambodia Here We Come

(S15E04) You'll have to bear with me tonight. You see, I'm cranky. Yes, I'm cranky about tonight's episode of The Amazing Race. Perhaps I'd be a bit less cranky had the show started anywhere near on time. No, it's a Sunday show and here in the NYC viewing area, any sport played during the day can run over and delay the entire Sunday evening primetime line-up. On a night like tonight, delayed 45 minutes, it wreaks havoc with other shows I'd like to watch and my review writing time. But that's not the only reason I'm cranky.

(S15E03) Gee, it doesn't seem like we're already three episodes into The Amazing Race. But last week's two-hour season premiere with its two Philiminations, counted as two episodes. I'm still getting to know the teams. I think, so far, this season has more teams that I'd really like to see stick around for a while. There is only one team who really annoys me. With my luck, they'll be around for a good long while. I want them to implode. Nah, I'm not talking about Zev and Justin.

(S14E08) Yes! Sing along with the karaoke cab in Thailand. As we saw in this episode of The Amazing Race, we'll be accompanied by singing transvestites. But that would make it all the more unique an experience. Oh-oye, tonight's show seemed to start off a bit slow for me. However, things surely twisted and turned as it went along.

(S14E07) Tonight on The Amazing Race, the teams left India and headed to Thailand. In particular, they headed to Phuket, Thailand. Now, just the name of the city alone is enough for some teams to struggle with the correct pronunciation. There is an obvious one, but that probably wouldn't fly on network television. The accepted pronunciation is "FOO-ket." But, according to Jen and Kisha, it's "pa-KOOT." Mel was familiar with the city, but most of the other teams had trouble with the name. Phuket, it's that easy!

(S14E04) In the promos for this week's The Amazing Race, they promised us Siberia and a Blind U-Turn. Well, I know a bit about Siberia -- it's very cold. The plain old U-Turn on this show has its own coldness, too. But a "Blind" one? What could that be? Do they don blindfolds and pick a team at random like in pin the tail on the donkey? Nope. It's something even colder than Siberia itself.

(S14E01) Tonight's season premiere of The Amazing Race shows how to do a reality show the right way. Exciting, entertaining, teams to both hate and love, plus a whole lot of stunning scenery. I've long contended that this show is the best reality show on television. It consistently wins Emmy Awards. Hey, American Idol ... what have you done for us lately? What? Eliminated Jamar and kept Tatiana and Nathaniel? Feh. Give me The Amazing Race any day instead! I mean ... we're talking adrenalin rushes, excitement, flying wheels of cheese, and bungee jumping in the Alps! It beats drama queens no holds barred.

Brands can create their own streaming radio platform with Rhythm
A company called Gracenote, which was just acquired by Tribune Media for $170 million, has released a new platform called Gracenote Rhythm that allows brands to create their own streaming radio platform. The Rhythm platform will allow clients to create stations that are specific to a genre or type of music, or that focus entirely on a regional area.
Gracenote, which provides musical data for a slew of top streaming services, is launching a new platform today that will enable brands to launch their own music services. The company was just acquired by Tribune Media for $170 million, and its primary service is retrieving data about a specific song or song library (artist, genre, album title, origin/region, etc.), to add context to the music that's being played and allow music services (Amazon, Apple's iTunes Radio, Spotify, and more) to collect meaningful information about user behavior. Its latest platform, Gracenote Rhythm, hopes to provide a "Radio as a Service" that will give organizations that aren't in the music business a way to create their own streaming platform.

MSI P55-GD65 motherboard preview by windwithme
One of our forum members, windwithme, has posted a picture preview of the P55-GD65 motherboard over in our forums.
What is probably most interesting about this board is that it has overclocking buttons - yep, you heard right. There are plus and minus buttons which allows you to adjust the base clock speed of the Core i5 processor.
You can see all the pictures of the mobo right here.

EVGA Launches X58 SLI Micro Motherboard
Those looking for a Core i7 motherboard in something other than a full ATX format will be pleased to know that EVGA has just launched X58 SLI Micro.
The EVGA X58 SLI Micro is an Intel X58 chipset based motherboard shrunk down to the mATX size, yet doesn't lose much in the process. The board still packs enough features to satisfy many enthusiasts' needs, providing triple channel DDR3 and two-way SLI support.
It also has six SATA ports so that you can pack a case full of hard drives and optical drives. EVGA has also left a single PCI slot for expansion should users require something beyond the options that are available on the board itself.
The X58 SLI Micro motherboard also supports EVGA's E-LEET tuning utility software and EZ Voltage for easy overclocking and power testing. EVGA is backing the board by a two year warranty and it retails for $199.99.

Foxconn also shows us its P55 Inferno Katana mobos
Today we visited the Foxconn Channel office in Taipei and got a look at its upcoming range of motherboards to be released in the coming future. We got a look at what was being shown behind closed doors during Computex. You've already seen the Foxconn Cinema 785G board, now we get a look at a couple upcoming Intel boards.
Zach Ko, Quantum Force & Digital Life motherboard product manager, gave us an early look at its upcoming Quantum Force Socket 1156 boards based around Intel's P55 Express chipset for the upcoming range of Core i5 mid-range processors.
The Inferno Katana is the big daddy and comes loaded with all the features. There is a slightly cut-down version called the Inferno Katana GTI. The main difference being that the GTI only has eight CPU power phases and the Inferno Katana has 12. Each board has two dedicated power phases for the dual channel DDR3 memory. Both boards support NVIDIA SLI and ATI CrossfireX.
Watch our video below:
We got no details on price or availability, but you can expect Foxconn to begin selling these one Intel starting selling the compatible processors to match the boards. There are plenty of exciting features on this board, especially to do with power. We look forward to testing it fully when it comes out.

Foxconn shows us its Cinema AMD 785G mobo
Today we visited the Foxconn Channel office in Taipei and got a look at its upcoming range of motherboards to be released in the coming future.
First up Zach Ko, Quantum Force & Digital Life motherboard product manager, gave us an early look at its Cinema motherboard. It is part of the popular Digital Life line and is based on the upcoming AMD 785G chipset, which includes the DX10.1 ATI Radeon HD 4200 GPU. Overclocking is one of the features which hasn't been forgotten on this small board and there is an option in the BIOS to increase the graphics core up to 1100MHz - and that enables it to hit a 3DMark06 score of around 2700 3DMarks. On the Deluxe version of the board, 128MB DDR3 1333MHz onboard SidePort memory is included for an extra performance boost.
Watch our video below:
It's capable of supporting both AM2+ and AM3 based AMD processors and comes with Dual Channel DDR2 667/800/1066 support. There are a total of five CPU power phases to keep things stable and 100% solid capacitors are used as well as ferrite choke power delivery for basic overclocking and increased reliability.
Audio is a strong point with this board and that makes sense since it is targeted at users wanting to build a home theater PC. Surround sound 7.1 channel audio is added along with DTS CONNECT and Dolby Digital Live certification.
As far as price goes, Foxconn reckon it will go on sale at a little under $100 USD and it will go online in early August first in China and then around the rest of the world at the end of August.

Foxconn Shows Off Inferno Katana P55 Motherboard
Just because Foxconn didn't attend Computex this year doesn't mean that they didn't have anything new to show off. Foxconn has just unveiled their high end P55 based motherboard, the Inferno Katana.
The Inferno Katana is the latest entry to the Quantum Force series of motherboards from Katana. Other than the usual three PCIe slots, four DIMM slots, and six SATA ports, Foxconn has included a 12 phase Hybrid PWM and passive cooling with a heatpipe to keep things chilled.

ASUS ROG Maximus III Motherboard Pictured
Some pictures of the ASUS ROG Maximus III motherboard have started circulating around the web and it is probably one of the sharpest looking P55 based boards seen so far.
Almost everything seems like your typical P55 motherboard, however the red and black color scheme from ASUS really lets the board stand out. One thing that is different is that ASUS wants to keep plenty of power going to the CPU and have plenty of caps around it to make that happen.
It comes loaded with tons of USB and SATA, four DIMM slots, three PCI Express slots, and two PCI slots. Follow the link for tons of pictures including many shots of what the BIOS will have to offer.

MSI Adds SLI Support For All Its X58 Motherboards
Core i7 owners and prospects will be pleased to know that MSI has added more options for those that wish to go with SLI along with the Core i7.
MSI says that their entire line of X58 based motherboards now feature support for NVIDIA SLI, from the cheapest of X58 boards to the most expensive. This includes the X58M, X58 Platinum, X58 Eclipse SLI, X58 Eclipse Plus, and X58 Pro-E.
Just as GIGABYTE did a few months ago, the update for existing boards is a simple BIOS update. MSI says that you can either use their Windows-based Live Update utility or the motherboard's built-in M-Flash tool to apply the new update and then enjoy the benefits of being able to choose between SLI or CrossFire as you please.

ASUS Shows Off P57 Based Motherboard
While many motherboard manufacturuers are taking the time at Computex to show off motherboards based upon Intel's P55 chipset, ASUS is showing off a little bit more.
Dubbed the P7P57 motherboard, it is based upon Intel's P57 express chipset and is ready to support Lynnfield and Clarkdale CPUs when they arrive. ASUS didn't shed too much light on the motherboard, but we did learn that it will support Intel's Braidwood technology as well as dual-channel DDR3 support.
ASUS also said that the board wil have an 8-phase power design and EPU for system level energy efficiency. It is a little interesting how ASUS brags about more phases giving the board more power then immediately points out that it will be energy efficient.

AMD G34 Motherboards Spotted At Computex
Some very early AMD G34 motherboards were spotted at Computex this year that will be filled with AMD's upcomming six-core and twelve-core derivitives of Istanbul.
The two boards differ in application as the first from Inventec seems to be more server oriented with its 24 DIMM slots supporting quad-channel memory. Each socket on the G34 HPC motherboard has twelve DIMM slots of its own.
The second board is from Quanta it appears to be more oriented to the workstation market with only eight DIMM slots per socket but room for a few PCI-Express slots. Quanta's G34 should also support quad-channel memory as well.

[This article was originally written as a guest post for Puppet Labs and published at their blog on January 9th, 2014.]
If you haven't yet noticed that prioritization of non-functional requirements (NFRs) is changing amongst your user base, you will soon. For decades, we have held to the same familiar set of NFRs. Every team had its own definition and particular spin on NFRs, but the usual suspects are accessibility, availability, extensibility, interoperability, maintainability, performance, reliability, scalability, security, and usability.
But new priorities have surfaced, as IT has experienced a sea change over the past few years. Some organizations have even adopted completely new NFRs. The rise of DevOps has coincided with these changes, and the movement's principles enable IT teams to more readily adapt to rapidly changing requirements.
Your grandfather's mainframe was very reliable
Historically, IT system designs were praised for reliability. Robust and stable systems could "take a licking and keep on ticking." As computing became more pervasive, scalability became the watchword. Systems should be able to grow and expand to meet increasing demands.
Scalability as an NFR priority represents just a slight shift from reliability as an NFR. Both operated off the mindset that the original system design was valid. Reliability ensures that the system continues to provide the stated functionality over time, and scalability ensures that you can do so for an increasing demand set.
Roughly 10 years ago, things began to shift as more and more organizations embraced movements like agile or XP, and architectural models like Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). These initiatives promoted adaptation and response to change as desirable system qualities. Next, cloud computing introduced us to the notion of elasticity, further promoting the values of flexibility and responsiveness to change.
A resilient system is a happy system
The state of the art for system design is always evolving, and we see noticeable leaps forward every few years. The current phase of evolution is toward resilient systems.
Legacy system designs relied upon expensive infrastructure with multiple-redundant-hot-swappable-live-backup-standby-continuity-generators (or whatever vendors are peddling lately). In contrast, resilient system designs embrace failure and promote the use of cheap, commodity hardware, coupled with distributed data management, parallel processing, eventual consistency, and self-healing operational nodes.
Some portion of your system is likely to go down at some point, and resilient systems are designed with that expectation. Resilient systems and resilient processes are able to continue operation (albeit at diminished capacity) in the face of failure.
The prioritization of resilience over reliability as an NFR can be seen within the DevOps movement, the development of the Netflix Simian Army, and the rise of NoSQL data management solutions.
DevOps and resiliency
DevOps is a multi-headed beast, more a movement guided by a set of principles than a tangible and well-defined construct. While organizations are free to adopt aspects of DevOps that suit their needs, one common thread is that of resilience. Failure is seen as an opportunity to improve processes and communication, rather than as a threat.
The principles of continuous integration and continuous delivery that are core to most DevOps practices exemplify a resilient mindset. Where the classic waterfall model relies upon detailed front-end design and planning with an all-or-nothing development phase and late-stage testing, DevOps teams are more agile, embracing a "fail early, fail often" model. This approach results in more resilient and adaptable applications.
Netflix Simian Army
Netflix gained world renown when the company broadcast details of its Simian Army work in 2010 and 2011. Through the automated efforts of Chaos Monkey, Chaos Gorilla, and a slew of other similar utilities, failure is simulated in order to develop more resilient processes, tools, and capabilities.
John Ciancutti of Netflix writes, "If we aren't constantly testing our ability to succeed despite failure, then it isn't likely to work when it matters most — in the event of an unexpected outage."
A third illustration of the growing fascination with resilient, self-healing systems is the transformation now going on in the data realm. Data and metadata management have evolved considerably from the relational databases of yore. Modern data management strategies tend to be distributed, fault-tolerant, and in some cases even self-heal by spawning new nodes as needed. Examples include Google FS / Bigtable, in-memory datastores like Hazelcast or SAP's HANA, and distributed data management solutions like Apache Cassandra.
Miko Matsumura of Hazelcast notes, "Virtualization and scale-out power new ways of thinking about system stability, including a shift away from 'reliability,' where giant expensive systems never fail (until they do, catastrophically), and towards 'resiliency,' where thousands of inexpensive systems constantly fail—but in ways that don't materially impact running applications."
Keeping pace with the cool kids
It's often said that the only constant is change. The DevOps movement positions organizations to embrace change, rather than fear it. Continuous integration, continuous delivery, and continuous feedback loops between dev teams and ops teams facilitate an enhanced degree of agility and responsiveness.
As business and society evolve, our system design priorities must adapt in parallel. The cool kids will change the game again at some point, but for right now, "change" means designing systems and supporting processes that are responsive and adaptable by prioritizing resilience over reliability.

By Carmen Gonzalez The Internet of Things (IoT) is causing data centers to become radically decentralized and atomized within a new paradigm known as "fog computing." To support IoT applications, such as connected cars and smart grids, data centers' core functions will be decentralized out to the network's edges and endpoints (aka "fogs"). As this trend takes hold, Big Data analytics platforms will focus on high-volume log analysis (aka "logs") and rely heavily on cognitive-computing algorithms (aka "cogs") to make sense of it all.
