Internet Scale Services Checklist

A checklist for designing and developing internet scale services, inspired by James Hamilton's 2007 paper "On Desgining and Deploying Internet-Scale Services."

Basic tenets

Does the design expect failures to happen regularly and handle them gracefully?
Have we kept things as simple as possible?

	require 'rubygems'
	require 'rbvmomi'
	require 'pp'
	require 'alchemist'

	hyper = 'thunder03'
	vim = RbVmomi::VIM.connect :host => hyper, :user => 'root', :password => 'secret', :insecure => true

	# get current time
