Customers with IBM Infrastructure can leverage Alfresco Open Source CMS

Why? What is the option?

Usually customers who had made huge investments in IBM hardware would like to go with IBM solutions for Content Management and Portals.  These solutions are often expensive, inflexible and hard to maintain.  There are many supier Open Source based content management systems, but most of them run only on LAMP stack, they can't be deployed on IBM stack.
 

Importance of Time Synchronization in Distributed System

Distributed system involves N number of computers connected to each other via any communication medium (LAN/MAN/WAN) and they communicate by passing messages on the communication medium.
 
In DCS, all the computers share their own data. In order to access updated data from each computer, time stamp of all computers must be same. So we have to make sure that all the computers' clocks (which are part of DCS) should be synchronized.
