IBM Working on Self Healing Computers

from the open-the-pod-bay-doors-hal dept

IBM announced that it's entering into the "second phase" of its holistic computing project, eLiza. They intend to create computers that can address minor problems themselves, without requiring human intervention, and now they've released software to help manage clusters of servers. As high density blade server clusters become more and more popular, managing them is becoming more and more of a nightmare -- so any help is definitely welcome. Just how far off are we from Hal, Data, or (my favorite) that evil computer in Superman III.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team
