Stephen Foskett, Pack Rat: Storage History: The 3Server

  • tsa · 2 years ago
    Just for completeness, the third major player of that era was Banyan, with Banyan VINES. While I worked there, we moved VINES from a proprietary hardware platform to generic 386 servers and ultimately implemented it as services on top of SCO Unix. If you're going to cover this in a future segment, great. If not, readers can look up "Banyan" on wikipedia.org for a reasonably accurate summary.

    How could I, a Mass-hole myself, forget to mention Banyan? It was the first NOS I was exposed to when I was an undergrad at WPI! Thanks for pointing this out! I meant to be focusing on the 3Server, but Banyan deserved at least a shout-out!
