Putting P2P To Work

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the it's-all-data-anyhow dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Looks like some folks at IBM have had moderate success in getting P2P adopted within the corporate enterprise. One new paper on the site describes experiences in deploying a decentralized search network spanning machines in 43 countries. Another describes a system for peer-to-peer sharing of dynamic web applications instead of static files. The idea is to support development and distribution of simple modules that themselves form meta p2p networks. Neat."

    What they need to do is synergize by making more robust b2b real-time applications using p2p e-solutions.

    You sound like Dilbert's boss.

    This sounds like the making of another corporate catch phrase that will be thrown around in analyst meetings to drive up stock prices. I'm sure it's very neat and all, but make money with it first this time.
