Talk:Application streaming

I don't know that much about the technical details but I do know that Omnishift, Endeavors Technology, Stream Theory and a number of others were and all operating in this space over quite a considerable period of time. The article, as it stands is practically an advertorial for one player and doesn't present a balanced view of the history, other players, problems or potential solutions in this particular corner of the software universe.

I'm going to delete this again
Let's just say that Application Streaming is something that might be in its infancy but could become major. The article does not need external links to companies who are offering it. The article needs an explanation of what it might be.

NO, I will not respect the talk guidlines. Get the rubbish out of your heads and stop giving links to news articles or marketing speak from companies trying to make a claim. If you can't sort out what Application Streaming is and what it might mean without waving your knobs about then the subject is not mature enough for a Wikipedia Article and you lot are not mature enough to try and sell it.

Okey Bloke
In the bit about code space I was going to try and talk about how things get moved off of the motherboard and silicon storage onto the hard drive which, although that's where where your programs are stored, it is also the place where the system uses a swapfile to shunt things in and out of the on board memory. It is part of code space but when you are running lots of code and you can't keep it all in motherboard memory the next place to go is the swapfile. At that point it might become more obvious, in terms of streaming, what is going on. My, sort of, suggestion is that streaming delivers the bits of a program, as you need it, over a piece of wire. Either side of the piece of wire there are two systems that control the delivery. Inside your computer you have the motherboard system that gets hooked up through a bit of wire to the hard drive system and they negotiate delivery of code in the swapfile. Two systems, negotiation, bit of wire.... therefore, at that level, streaming. Keith Keith Mallen (talk) 14:51, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
