Many of you might not know that beside Microsoft Windows has DNS caching, Mac OSX Leopard does too. In order to flush the cached DNS in your Mac OSX Leopard and get the latest resolve value, you can do this in your Mac Terminal.

Flush Cached DNS

In your shell, type;

dscacheutil -flushcache

To see the caching statistic on your machine, type;

dscacheutil -statistics

This command doesn’t required sudo privilege cause it’s flush base on user’s cache statistic.

This morning we got a memo or enlighten announcement from Marketing & Communications; Which is one of the good news for AIMS Data Centre, below is the quote from the memo;

Kuala Lumpur, 18 June 2008 - Four of South East Asia’s leading data centres namely Malaysia’s The AIMS Asia Group, Singapore’s 1-Net Singapore, Vietnam’s CMC Telecom and Thailand’s TCC Technology (TCCT) announced today the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to form a Data Centre Alliance to meet acute data centre requirements in the region. Together, the data centres within the Alliance will form a one-stop Hub that provides a full suite of services and connectivity.

With a combined space of more than 500,000 square feet and a projected annual turnover of approximately RM240 million by 2009, the Alliance will become one of the biggest data centre operators in the region catered for first-tier telcos, government agencies, banks and other businesses.

After Unity Consortium, this is another great move for our Data Centre to go further in international Data Centre business. Looking forward for more good news this year.
