Re: New lower cost IBM i announced

I didn't see the link go by. Life moves too fast. I'll locate it and check it out.

You don't recall Go Faster and those products ?

Apps track their own user counts and sessions. Not related to IBMi user checking.

I believe that was my point that you re-stated :-)

Maybe they can chomp the 5250 performance, but I don't see it anywhere
else being easily trackable.

That link that Diego provided explained it well.

Hopefully not the software governor again :-)

No, that's off the beaten path.

Here comes products like Gofast again if so..........

Again, off in left field.

Harder to track a user with web apps, domino, websphere and such.

IBM defines the term "user" to mean an individual who authenticates against
IBM i (i.e. IBM i user profile, LDAP directory entry, etc.). If the
application doesn't authenticate against IBM i, it doesn't count.

Same as with any other web environment.

Web apps may run on IBM i, without authenticating against IBM i.

Usually the apps do it, not the OS.

I'm not sure what you mean. Apps do what?

If you find that article send a link please.

Again, see the link provided by Diego.
