How to Choose Vendors Cloud Computing Providers

By goodinfo

Today’s business world began to realize that service and cloud computing resources are dynamic, flexible, easily accessible via the Internet or intranet facilities and most importantly, can change the behavior of the business itself.

Cloud computing is believed to enhance the organization’s ability to respond quickly to market needs. But before deciding to use cloud computing, it’s good for business people to find out more behind the cloud computing ecosystem itself.

Cloud computing was born as the main approach to reduce operating costs, manage complexity and stimulate the integration of business organizations. As more and more companies are turning to cloud computing solutions, the Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and application developers must be prepared to deliver more solutions in the cloud.

Cloud environment where applications are built will have a major impact on the quality of services offered by ISVs and application developers. So, before you as a customer enters an agreement or contract signed SaaS computing solutions offerings, companies must ask the following questions:

1. Integration – How does the application vendor to ensure compatibility with existing IT infrastructure and how its development in the future?
To ensure fast installation and ROI, the vendor must be able to demonstrate the ease of integration with your existing systems and solutions that might want to be developed and constructed in such systems in the future.

Some of the aspects that you need to look at is this: according to need, in order to adapt to business needs changing and dynamic, attention to scalability to achieve the required business growth so that it can be improved and increased as needed without having to make the process of upgrading the current system, and compatible with other solutions on the market, for example, other applications are developed in the same cloud ecosystem that offers additional functionality of the system being used today.

2. Performance: Performance and Service Agreement (SLA) what vendors can offer?
Depending on the processes involved, you must ensure that SaaS applications are offered in accordance with business requirements in terms of availability, time of transaction, storage and performance.

To ensure security, seek transparency in situations where the possible breach of security levels, such as monitoring, operational management and performance, as well as disaster recovery plan (disaster recovery) a detailed vendor.

In addition, the related promise of transparency, scalability and performance, the customer must ask: what security practices and compliance that have been applied to ensure confidentiality, integrity and availability of data.

It is very important. For example, procedural errors back-up data on a customer can make their systems can not be used in a long time, until the process of backing up is finished. And this brings substantial financial losses in terms of customer operations.

3. Services: Where the vendor server located?
When selecting a cloud computing service, which often forgotten factor considered is the existence of the server where the application is running and where data is stored. This has a significant impact on processing speed, lag time and the network relays that will greatly affect the user experience.

A user in Thailand who request access to applications residing in the U.S. to send data from other parts of the world and are likely to experience delays in access.

For companies, this results in decreased efficiency, or even worse sales. To support growth in the future, companies should look for software vendors who rely on a reliable cloud service providers and not constrained because of the performance.

4. Price: Warranty contract price and what kind of flexibility is given a vendor?
Cloud computing offers benefits in using and software purchases, but this depends on the speed of innovation and how to subscribe vendor providers. If the application will be used as part of the unity inherent and important part of business, make sure that your vendor can provide long-term price protection guarantee.

Also, make sure that the provider has the stability and credibility of the condition of the company that can run in a very long period of time.

5. Cost Saving: Is infrastructure cloud computing service vendors you support the concept of sharing applications up to a certain level?
The concept of the use of shared applications commonly associated with multi-tenancy, ie the ability to serve multiple customers in a similar infrastructure.

This allows providers to run the IT infrastructure to improve efficiency in the homogeneous use of hardware (and perhaps also a license fee), reduce operating costs significantly, so customers will also benefit. And one more thing to note also, the application of multi-tenancy must also pay attention to the user’s data security.

Multi-layer security that will be implemented should be able to be applied at all levels ranging from physical security, network / server / client, applications, data & information, and user identity.

6. Support: Support and Expertise offered any cloud service providers / vendors?
IT providers must have sufficient experience in implementing cloud technology and have the latest knowledge about the development of cloud computing in the future. To help developers and ISVs and business success of their initiatives.

Conclusion

Cloud computing promises many things for all types of companies by offering access to a range of IT services, including infrastructure, software, security and collaboration platform based on a subscription model or pay-per-usage.

However, choosing the right vendor to implement a system, software or cloud services, it takes knowledge of how SaaS applications are built and the ecosystem in which the application is built.

To overcome the challenges in the adoption of cloud computing, IBM is helping the vendors through various partnerships that are optimized for the workload of the cloud as well as supporting partners at every stage, from development to deployment, minimizing the risk of migration of cloud cover and a flexible pricing model aligned with the cost and revenue streams .

Diseases Caused by Technological Advances

By goodinfo

Technology does offer convenience in the activity. But convenience is not necessarily without consequence. Research has found there are some health problems due to the use of technology in everyday life ranging from depression up to narcissism.

diseases caused by technological advances, among others:

1. Hypersensitivity to Electromagnetic Waves from Wifi to Signal Phone
From wi-fi signal to a cell phone, people are surrounded by wireless communication. And for some people, exposure to electromagnetic fields can make the illness. Symptoms range from acute headaches and skin-burning up muscle twitching and severe pain.
An estimated 5 percent of Americans believe that they suffer from this condition and some of them have moved away to areas where wireless communication can dikonrtol strictly controlled to avoid problems.

2. Depression Facebook
Earlier this year, a group of physicians in the U.S. warned that teenagers can become so obsessed with Facebook and the expense of his health.
American Academy of Pediatrics states that neglected children on social networking sites would be more depressed than ignored in real life.
This organization warned of the risk of mental health of children who are victims of cyber-bullying and confirms that the use of some of the websites in the long run can affect sleep patterns and level of self-esteem.

3. Repeated strain injuries which caused a lot of Typing on Keyboard
Usually factory workers, tailors and musicians who had the most at risk of developing repetitive strain injuries. But today’s office workers can suffer similar problems due to spending too much time using the keyboard.
The use of fingers, wrists, arms and shoulders repetitively can cause damage that can not be repaired by the body from time to time. Preventive measures such as regular breaks are recommended.

4. Headaches Due to Mobile Phone
For years, experts engaged in a fierce debate over whether cell phones dangerous or not. But studies have shown no relationship between headache and the use of mobile phones.
Research commissioned by mobile phone manufacturers in 2008 and found that a phone call shortly before bedtime can affect sleep quality can cause headaches the next day.

5. Internet Addiction
Many psychiatrists today that offer treatment for Internet addiction and has been treating patients who say that the online world has taken over his life.
According to U.S. psychiatrist, Jerald Block, the condition must be seen as a clinical disorder to see the ever increasing number of people who are addicted to gaming and pornography on the intenet.

6. Reduced Loss due to musical instruments such as Ipod
Some diseases may be new technology over troubling for 10 to 15 years. But already more than 30 years since it first raised concerns that listening to loud music through speakers may damage hearing.
The iPod has replaced the Walkman, but concerns remain the same. France has banned the gadget manufacturers to manufacture earphones that produce noise exceeds a certain level.

7. Play Nintendo Wii injury time
When the Nintendo Wii was first released, people of all ages are excited to try this game that replaces the ‘stick’ that ancient. The problem is many people who enjoy playing Wii games to lose track of time, causing muscle spasms.

8. Drunk from Game or Movie 3D
A peneltiian Association of Ophthalmologists released in the United States have found health problems due to television and 3D games. A quarter of users reported experiencing eye strain, blurred vision, dizziness, headache, or nausea after viewing 3D content.
People who experience such symptoms of drunkenness are highly susceptible to visual tricks that are used as a trick of visual technology.

9. Narcissism on Social Networking Sites
A study published earlier this year by two U.S. academics who find students who are getting fatter more selfish than previous generations because of the influence of modern technology.
Students of today are also more likely to display less narcissistic behavior and show empathy seeprti displayed in behavior or habit of constantly updating social networking sites. In peneltiian, the men found to be more inclined to do this, although they are assumed not to use technology more often than women.

Processor Technology in the Year 2012

By goodinfo

As the brain of every gadget with the most modern computing, central processing unit or CPU is an indispensable part of every desktop, laptop, phone, or tablet. Processors are one of the main part of the hardware that determines how thick your laptop or how long your phone’s battery will last.
Every year, these silicone sheets are getting smaller, stronger, and more energy efficient. That’s good news for producers gadgets that can make a device to be faster, lighter, and generally more impressive as a result. On the desktop and laptop market, there are two major players namely Intel and AMD.

Intel operates on what is called a cycle of “tick-tock”. With every “tick”, Intel introduced a new manufacturing process and each “tock”, Intel introduced a new microarchitecture. In 2011, Sandy Bridge CPUs from Intel that provides superior performance than its predecessor (Clarkdale) by reducing the energy required and increase the performance of integrated graphics. We’ll see the “tick” next in 2012, when Intel shrink Sandy Bridge microarchitecture to 22-nanometer process. The new CPU code-named “Ivy Bridge”, promising energy savings and better performance.

Most of the information we have about the Ivy Bridge comes from the Intel Developer Forum held earlier this year. Earlier this year Intel launched a 3D transistor technology “tri-gate” that have been implemented to make the transition to 22-nanometer process. The new transistors smaller, faster, and more energy efficient, which will be key to Intel’s performance advantage.

Now, what about AMD? Manufacturers of processors this one focuses on the Fusion APUs (Accelerated Processing Unit), which is an amalgamation of CPU and GPU onto a single piece of silicon. In 2012, quad-core processors will be used by many people, with chipmakers such as Nvidia and Qualcomm as a leader in the market. Nvidia Tegra CPU 3 is one of the first mobile quad-core processors coming to market. This system consists of an ARM Cortex A9 CPU with an integrated 12-core GeForce GPU for graphics power.

The engineers to develop an Aplication contained in future smartphones can check your health. This application is to monitor blood glucose levels and keep track of your blood pressure. In early 2011, the Department of Food American, even has approved an application that allows for doctors to carry out checks through the iPhone or iPad. Ease of this help doctors to diagnose certain diseases including cancer.

The camera on this luxury applications are also projected to assist health work in remote areas. So the process of verification or diagnosis will be more easily done, although doctors are not experts in that place. Medical officers can simply send the photo, then sent to a specialist.

The camera on the smart phone has a good ability to capture and send information to the microscopic. It has been proved by PLoS ONE that there are empty bars that exist in the smart phone camera. The photos are sent, can be seen with either through a standard microscope. Crystal clear images are usually taken using a camera with a resolution of at least 2 megapixels.

Expected to continue research of this application can detect a variety of other diseases so that more easing the task of a doctor and patient are located in remote areas.
