The glass data center. This was a favourite spot for every customer so they could see, touch and hear ("What did you say?") our tin. We had Blade 6000, Opteron and Xeon servers, Thumper, M4k, M5k, some storage and a tape library in there.

Photos from the Sun booth at CeBIT 2008 trade show in Hannover, Germany. I did booth duty for the "Solaris and xVM" pod with Ulrich and Detlef.

constantin > Buildup on monday. Booth structure is finished, last touches at the demo pods. Crates, boxes, stuff everywhere as usual.

constantin > Ulrich setting up the Ultra 40 M2 workstation with Solaris and xVM demos. Will 8 GB of memory be enough?

constantin > Donatus' official opening of the Sun booth (and the beer taps).

constantin > 8 GB is not enough. What should we do? The X6220 Blade module to the left is starting to become nervous: "Dave... I know you're planning something...".

constantin > Ulrich adds 4 extra GB that I stole from the Blade X6220 to our Ultra 40 M2. Virtualization has its memory price but we're glad we found some :). The blade module is still whining...

constantin > The Ultra 40 M2 runs just fine with 12 GB now. Time to celebrate with some beer.

constantin > Buildup finished, the Sun booth is ready for the first trade show day. Let's go home now.

constantin > Days 1-3 were _very_ busy, so I didn't have the chance to take any photos. Only on day 4 did I find some time to shoot again. The victim here is my booth buddy Detlef who replaced Ulrich on day 3.
