A cloud administration or purchase the product?

The expense of keeping up a system such as cloud is not exactly the expense of you to keep up physical base, however specialists say it is more essential that you consider the measure of time you save money on inward administration, other than being much more secure and adaptable. Cloud items have an ensured least administration bundle, reinforcement and information assurance.

In any case before choosing, take after these 10 inquiries to pick best:

What sort of innovation is behind: stage or database?

On the off chance that you require an information base remotely How much?

Does it cover all my business needs? Contingent upon your business searching for the right one that leads item administration, distribution center administration, and so forth.

Where the organization that gives the administration found?

Is it accurate to say that you are outsourced benefit or own?

Where are the servers? Maybe because of the qualities of your business, you should be staying in Spain.

In the medium term, I’m intrigued or not pay permit expenses? Am I inspired by cloud or not to pay?

On the off chance that you buy an item in the cloud does alternate items in the same organization are additionally in the cloud? You might find that bookkeeping is most certainly not.

On the off chance that I don’t sit up now ready to consolidate later a bookkeeping and financial control?

Looking ahead Does it coordinate with their own particular e-trade stage? Do they have experience?

As a business visionary and from the financial perspective, you ought to likewise inquire as to whether you are more inspired by purchasing a product or rent, as the measurements say that 80% of organizations vanish in under five years and if before long is not going great and you choose to leave, nobody will give back the speculation you’ve made in the system.

A debt of gratitude is in order for sharing this data in informal organizations.

Microsoft Commitment to Cloud and Application Convergence in Windows 10

The US firm reveals new points of interest amid the engineer meeting. It will adjust Android applications. It plans to be available in one billion gadgets in 2018.

The dedication to union between various applications and administrations of others, adjustment of “applications” for iOS and Android and create apparatuses in the cloud and make a general idea. Microsoft on Wednesday uncovered new Windows 10 letters amid 2015 Build designer meeting, which happens until Thursday.

Amid the keynote presentation, coordinated particularly to the group of utilization engineers and developers, it was more than obvious exertion of the Redmond organization to encourage the work of the considerable number of organizations that improve the environment of Windows applications.

Windows 10, as he definitely knew, will include the unification of all stages into a general Windows, it will be the same working framework for all gadgets with this working framework that looks for new situations. “Windows 10 is not just another arrival of Windows, is another era. It reshapes principally on the grounds that it is an administration. Have a brought together store which will mean a critical financial return on account of the developing group of gadgets with Windows” said Satya Nadella, Microsoft conejero delegate.

The ofrecicas figures-more than one billion gadgets with Windows-represent a number that can tempt numerous organizations to make their applications specifically on Windows 10, and take care of the most serious issue of Windows Phone, the deficiency of “applications” over its rivals . They additionally declared Continuum, a framework by which a client can interface the telephone to a screen to transform the gadget into a PC semi.

Sky blue cloud will be another extraordinary open door, as was exhibited amid the gathering. “You can utilize Azure just framework, additionally to build up your applications speedier than any time in recent memory,” said Scott Guthrie, head of frameworks “distributed computing” of the organization.

Yet, all does not end there, amid the presentation declared that applications are currently in Web, .NET and Win32, Android and iOS can be changed over to Windows 10 practically without evident exertion. Both contentions, the extent of Windows 10, and straightforward change from different stages, presumably will see a rich assortment of utilizations in the store all inclusive stage, even before the official dispatch, with which Microsoft arrangements to return bigly. Furthermore, their gauges are yearning: expects to be available in one billion gadgets in 2018.

Additionally we have seen surprisingly amid the presentation, the new program Windows 10, Microsoft Edge, known as Spartan Project, and successor of Internet Explorer, running with Cortana, the partner Windows Phone completely incorporated. The new program includes the adaptability of program expansions you have Chrome or Firefox, with which it is locally upheld, ie you to utilize the same augmentations for Chrome and Firefox on Microsoft Edge.

Without a doubt, the driver of the entire presentation, motor has been lacompatibilidad in the middle of stages and advancement of Microsoft items. There was more to do table demonstrates the presentation, where you could see an iPad and an iPhone, utilized for testing. This is the situation of the .NET structure, proprietor of Microsoft for web advancement, it just dealt with Windows, and now it will likewise on Linux and Mac.

The same has happened with Visual Studio, a light use of programming, which is currently ready to keep running on both Linux and Mac additionally will be accessible for nothing. “Visual Studio is not a straightforward editorial manager,” said Scott Hanselman, head of programming at Microsoft. In general, the product mammoth needs to get with developers as of late changed to Apple to proceed with work on Windows stages.

Entrepreneurs do not use e-administration

Microentrepreneurs prefer e-administration, but they don’t use it - says the study of Idea Bank Group.

In the Internet there were created only 2% micro-enterprises, and almost 70% micro-enterprises admits that they have no account on any of the e-administration platforms.

There is a lack of knowledge …

This means that even though the construction of the electronic office lasts for years in many areas they are still at a very low level.

- First, they don’t use it because they lack the knowledge of how many different things you can do in this way - says the guest of radio ONE.

…Or tools

- Second, they don’t use it because they don’t have a trusted profile or an electronic signature. The research we conducted showed that as many as ¾ of entrepreneurs have neither one nor the other of these tools - explains.

There is no desire

- A large group of entrepreneurs does not use these systems because they do not have to. There is a requirement that if the entrepreneur does not employ more than 5 people they can settle all the matters with the authorities on a paper, not electronically.

External accounting

- There are also companies that use external accounting offices. Then the accountant is required to contact the office electronically.

Incentives are needed

According to experts, Polish entrepreneurs, but also all Poles, they need greater incentives which would increase the propensity to use electronic ways. One of the ideas is referenced eg. an agreement with the banks and the introduction of administrative formalities with your account.

ADFS - ensuring data security

The IT infrastructure distinguish between multiple systems, each of which, depending on the level of confidentiality of processed data must be appropriately protected. In the case of integration with service ADFS 3.0, you can use additional mechanisms to increase safety.

In almost every organization you can specify a set of applications that need to be made publicly available to all employees. We can also find such programs, which require special attention. This situation may involve, for example, Web applications that operate on sensitive data for the company, which must be additionally protected. Typically for applications for safety reasons given limited access, narrowed, for example, on the basis of membership in an approved security group or only to trusted devices within the Active Directory. It may also be required to use several different authentication mechanisms, for example. Authentication using the classic username and password combined with additional protection in the form of a certificate. When used was a single logon based on Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS), implementation of the previously mentioned mechanisms to enhance data security is not a problem. This particularly applies to situations in which the service can is based on Windows Server 2012 R2, ie. When implemented Federation Service is minimal version ADFS 3.0. For additional mechanisms to increase the security of data can include the following solutions:

Logging service equipment,

multiple authentication,

A multi-access control.

> Logging service equipment

Today, more and more often we encounter the use of mobile devices, often private, in order to gain access to resources business (ie. The phenomenon BYOD - Bring Your Own Device). It is very convenient for users as they can access data from virtually anywhere your device. However, administrators may be a bit cumbersome, because the biggest danger in this situation is the lack of control over end-user device from which you access the critical data.

SAS Visual Analytics and the next step in data visualization

Data visualization is nothing but a presentation of all kinds of data, their dimensions and measures in the form of visual or graphic using graphs such as histograms, line charts, scatter plots, heat maps, charts, jet bubble, tiled, maps, etc.

For centuries people using images had communicated important information. Various kinds of characters, graphics or paintings served as the quickest and most effective form of communication messaging about danger, how to perform tasks or instructions about location allowing access to specific places. Over time with the development of science, especially science based on mathematical calculations and analysis of phenomena using a variety of measurements, people themselves facilitated the analysis of the data using charts and graphics. Thus the process of analytical reasoning leads to draw the appropriate conclusions and take the right decisions has been significantly accelerated and optimized.

Nowadays the amount of information and data that is collected and analyzed is huge. There’s more and more of large companies operating in many sectors, in many markets, with highly diversified business. They have multiple systems and databases, which record every day hundreds or even millions of individual records and information about customers, products, manufacturing, logistics, sales processes, sales support, marketing, etc.

Such an organization to stay on the market, but also gain a competitive advantage, it must be efficiently and effectively managed, skillfully take advantage of new opportunities created by the environment, has to meet the growing demands of their customers while attracting new ones. It will surely make the company gain a market advantage and its revenues will grow. However, dynamic market, often changing trends, more and more aware consumers make that decision makers at all levels of the organizational hierarchy have less and less time and at the same time more and more information to analyze before making the right decision. Because of the way the brain works and how it processes information, people are quickly able to understand the importance of data and discover in the certain patterns, the information is displayed graphically (visualized) than when they have to delve into piles of spreadsheets containing hundreds or millions of unstructured numbers or words.

70% of the sensory receptors are located in the human eyes and the brain allocates 25% of its computing power just vision. In addition, the retina is able to process information at an approximate speed of 10Mbps.

The next step in data visualization is an interactive visualization. It allows you to go beyond the standard display of static graphics and the use of an approach much more dynamic allowing for data mining, charts, diagrams, instantaneous change in the way the visualization of the same data (conversion perspective by displaying the same data by other diagrams or charts), the use of various types interactions between individual graphs or even the use of animation, for example, a bubble chart after the addition of the time series can observe the movement of the bubble, both horizontally and vertically. This arrangement allows the data in the chart to determine the relationship between two variables.

SAS Visual Analytics is certainly one of the best tools available on the market that fully cover the needs of analytical data visualization, including the “big data”. This tool provides an easy-to-use interface. Any operation related to the visual exploration of data using analytics, or build reports can be made by “drag & drop”.

In addition, SAS Visual Analytics is a very intuitive tool. For example to make statistical forecasts sales volume of the product, the user needs only historical data on sales of the product over time. Next tool works already “self” - automatically, set is the best method of statistical forecasting (one of several, depending on the data), and the user appears on the screen graph of forecast with confidence intervals. After the “click” the next icon appears a table with data ready for export to enable further analysis. The next “click”, another icon, the analysis of correlation measurements in the background and the user one movement is able to conduct a scenario analysis (what if analysis).

Forecasts of basic agents can be modified, can be raised or lowered either directly from the graph, or more precisely in the table. Any such change will have an impact on the sales forecast. Thus, the user is able to answer the very important business questions: what will happen to sales when summer temperatures will be higher / lower as compared to last year and how to behave if we increase the sales / will reduce spending on the promotion of the product tested.

This is just one of many practical examples, how simple solution SAS Visual Analytics can support the business operations of the organization. SAS Visual Analytics is a tool that introduces analytics through data visualization to the next level. Decision trees, network diagrams, descriptive statistics, correlations, regressions cars, heat maps, and all this in a graphical and intuitive interface, user-friendly and does not require specialized knowledge of statistical and analytical, while enabling its use. To draw conclusions from such analyzes and take appropriate business decisions is already on the side of man. But how much more confident he can feel in his expertise as a belief that is not only based on professional experience, business knowledge and instinct, but also on hard data analysis and statistics.

Infrastructure-as-a-Service

Companies that want the benefits of cloud solutions - but at the same time they want to provide maximum control, high performance and scalability - should be interested in the services of cloud computing IaaS type.

The most popular today, SaaS (Software-as-a-Service), but this is not the only way that companies can move towards cloud computing. We still have two popular models of delivering cloud resources: PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) and IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service). 

Scalability and performance in the hardware layer

At this point the question arises, what aspects should be considered in order to select the optimal delivery model clouds. The answer depends first of all on what applications you want to use. IaaS primarily introduces a layer of abstraction at the hardware level, so the user does not have to care about such things as the cabinet rack, stack hardware, power and cooling. Hardware resources are delivered on demand. While the higher layer - the operating system and applications - is responsible.

Once the decision is made to move to the cloud, the choice between PaaS and IaaS depends on the application requirements of performance and scalability. PaaS solutions are less scalable, because these platforms must ensure that all operating systems on them in mechanisms for automatic scaling and enable business continuity in the event of failure. On the other hand, IaaS will be a better choice if it is important to high scalability and performance. It is also a good solution for companies that want to have more control over applications (eg. For reasons of performance or security). The IaaS model you provide the operator cloud smaller range of tasks compared to PaaS and SaaS. The advantage of IaaS is the fact that the hardware infrastructure is hidden under a layer of abstraction and accessible via a set of APIs.

IaaS service providers, such as eg. Integrated Solutions are able to provide access to a very large pool of hardware resources on demand, in just a few minutes. This is an absolute revolution, when compared with traditional procedures, purchase of IT equipment. Applications running on such platforms can be created in order to scale all rapidly, depending on current needs. At the same time they will have available the required additional hardware resources for increased load, or will be laid off these resources, the load will fall. Use of Integrated Solutions offer the user no longer has to have redundant resources held only in order to use them at a time of increased load. With IaaS avoids the downtime in the operation of applications in cases of sudden, unexpected jumps load. Scalability is one of the biggest advantages of IaaS, because the business applications can vary, for example. Surrendering to seasonal fluctuations. This means that require dynamic infrastructure capable to handle different applications with different requirements.

Ability to reduce IT infrastructure costs

One of the main reasons for the interest in cloud computing companies, including IaaS services, it is also possible to reduce costs. Because of the cloud takes care of the operator, the user does not have to spend time and spend the money to build their own IT infrastructure. Companies do not have to worry about maintenance contracts and replacement of old equipment. To reduce costs also helps pay services IaaS model, where the user pays only for the resources actually used. With monthly fees, the amount of which varies depending on the intensity of use of the cloud, the user spending wisely and do not allocate funds for resources that do not use.

IaaS also facilitates access to the applications employees. Because IaaS platform are available through the Internet, also have access to systems, applications and data is possible in this way by any person having appropriate permissions and credentials. In this way, employees can use the application in the same way as if they were in the office, even if they are somewhere else.

What is Cloud Computing?

In trying to adjust to the advanced change that is occurring organizations will coordinate throughout the following year new administrations Cloud registering (distributed computing) on ​​their stages keeping in mind the end goal to be more light-footed and productive.

What is distributed computing?

In light of the definition given by the NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) distributed computing or distributed computing is an innovation model that permits pervasive, adjusted and on-interest system access to a common asset of configurable registering together, and that can be quickly provisioned and discharged with decreased administration exertion or insignificant cooperation with the administration supplier.

We will allude it to the cloud as an administration we can sue in system and normally gives us access to base offices of Information Technology (IT), all without purchasing the equipment and programming assets (with its related licenses ) so we can get to their offices without having the assets that will abuse, whether equipment or programming nature.

To see rapidly and effortlessly which is the key idea of distributed computing, various key components that separate it from conventional frameworks are utilized

Pay per use. Permits charging in view of utilization.

Reflection. It permits confining the contracted supplier of PC hardware of the element processing assets.

Coordinated adaptability. Increments or abatements powerfully works accessible relying upon the requirements of the client.

Multi. It permits all clients to utilize a specific administration or asset from a solitary innovation stage, adjusted to their necessities.

Self-request. It permits the client to get to the capacities of distributed computing naturally without contacting the seller.

Unhindered access. It empowers omnipresent access to benefits contracted anyplace/whenever, any gadget access to the system.

Distributed computing arrangements accessible in the business sector a few measurements that we will find in the course are grouped highlight minute that can be classified:

IT Infrastructure, Platform, or programming: the level at which the administration is given

By the method for execution (types of coordination and misuse) and recognizing open cloud, private cloud and crossover cloud.

Sorts of administrations Cloud Computing

Framework as a Service: This is the most elevated amount of administration. It is in charge of conveying framework complete client request handling. The client has one or more virtual machines in the cloud with which, for instance, can expand the span of hard drive in almost no time, get all the more handling or switches and pay just for the assets they utilize. This level can be seen as a development of Virtual Private Servers presently offered by facilitating organizations.

Stage as a Service: This is the middle of the road level, is in charge of conveying a complete preparing stage clients, completely utilitarian without purchasing and keep up equipment and programming. For instance, a web designer needs a web server to serve your pages, server, database and working framework. This level is in charge of giving every one of these administrations.

Programming as a Service: This level is in charge of conveying programming as an administration over the Internet at whatever point the client requests it. This is the most reduced level that permits access to the application utilizing a web program, without introducing extra programming on your PC or cell telephone. The workplace suites to which can be gotten to online are a decent case of this level.

Taking into account the administration conveyance models can be gathered distributed computing frameworks into the accompanying primary classifications: open, private and crossover.

Open mists are those in which all control of assets, procedures and information is held by outsiders. Various clients can utilize web administrations are handled on the same server can share plate space or other foundation system with different clients.

Private mists are those made and oversaw by a solitary substance that chooses where and how forms keep running inside of the cloud. A change as far as security and protection of information and forms, and that touchy information stays on the IT foundation of the association, while controlling how clients get to every cloud administration. In any case, the organization stays responsible for buying, keeping up and dealing with all the equipment and programming base of the cloud.

Half and half mists in the past two models coincide. For instance, an organization uses an open cloud to keep your web server while keeping your database server in your private cloud. Along these lines, a channel of correspondence between people in general and private cloud through which delicate information stay under strict control while the web server is overseen by an outsider is built up. This arrangement decreases the many-sided quality and expense of the private cloud.

A fourth model of administration conveyance, group mists, which are shared between a few associations that shape a group with comparative standards (mission, security prerequisites, approach and administrative consistence) are additionally targets. It can be overseen by the group or by an outsider. This model can be seen as a minor departure from the model of private cloud.

Acens, the main supplier of Cloud Hosting Services, Housing and Telecommunications Solutions business, highlighted Cloud five patterns that will impact on the business segment in 2016, where mixture mists will turn into the leader item.

Half and half cloud frameworks: Three out of four new undertakings will be made on this sort of cloud. Subsequently, the improvement of uses and administrations that stay on these foundations empower organizations to streamline choice making and abbreviate creation and to advertise.

Cloud as the center: To perform the advanced handling organizations move their center business to the cloud and event from the favorable circumstances as far as security, effectiveness, versatility and adaptability. This change depends on expanded profitability, diminished costs, enhanced client relations and business development.

Acknowledgment in customary divisions: The cloud is progressively present in the more conventional areas so that the cloud is turning into the way to correspondence with workers and connection with clients. An administration that can be accessible through person to person communication applications, online hard drive or arrangements that coordinate office computerization and email.

New showcasing: Another angle to receive changes will be promoting through the improvement of new channels of administration suppliers and altogether different from the standard framework. Accordingly, in 2016 it won’t be peculiar to perceive how the retail portion added to its offer items and administrations in the cloud.

Intermediaries uniting the Cloud: The achievement of half and half cloud administrations will create an expansion popular from organizations, which will support the vicinity of the cloud dealers influencing the specialized side (computerization and administration of the distinctive layers cloud foundation) and business (going about as a mediator in the middle of clients and sellers cloud).

The cloud can be touched

The cloud is elegant and will turn out to be significantly more in a couple of years, when everybody knows its significance and helpfulness and realize that large portions of their assets are accessible to anybody, without the requirement for particular PC abilities. Part of the fault for this obliviousness has its name the “cloud” brings out something ethereal, untouchable … be that as it may, it is not, the cloud can touch.

Indeed, really it could be played in the wake of beating the monstrous security controls that ensure the structures where the “cloud” is.

The documents that store on Dropbox, Facebook photographs, diversions downloaded from Steam or Origin, Spotify melodies … these records are in server farms, expansive structures where the parts that make up the alleged as a cloud.

The administrations that can bolster the cloud are exceptionally differing, yet for straightforwardness, we will talk about the two most regular: record stockpiling and distributed computing.

The part setup varies marginally relying upon the administration gave, nonetheless, basically it comes to PCs, however not as a common client can have at home. They are PCs that are arranged by burden they will bear, and that for the most part are worked remotely by means of direction and codes.

The documents that store on Dropbox, Facebook photographs, recreations downloaded from Steam or Origin, Spotify melodies … these records are in server farms, expansive structures where the parts that make up the supposed as a cloud.

Capacity

Document stockpiling is finished by PCs that contain one or all the more hard duscos and system card appointed to every IP address inside of the framework and can be spared and find particular records, recognize mistakes, and so forth. It is fundamentally the same to a NAS framework yet an extensive scale, with substantial storage rooms brimming with indistinguishable modules.

Access to server farms where are these modules is controlled to the point that in every one of them sorts of information are put away, from photographs to monetary data of a huge number of individuals. In any case, physical access to these documents is minimal sympathy toward organizations that oversee them, the security is much more grounded with regards to avoiding digital assaults, subsequent to, in spite of the fact that it is hard to find particular information inside of all the data that is put away, a monstrous burglary of this data would be a calamity.

Registering

Distributed computing unites a few assets: handling limit (by processors and illustrations cards), stockpiling, and so on. Every one of these assets are not united in a physical PC and a home PC, yet its capacities are connected through a virtualization framework as per client needs. Processors, for instance, might be in a territory of ​​the server farm, another design cards and hard drives in the capacity range. Through this framework, if the customer has asked for to have a situation with 40 GHz of preparing force, double illustrations and 200 GB of capacity cards, these assets are connected from various physical areas. Moreover, these assets can be shared, and in addition a client does not require, another might make them help, clients spare expenses and augment advantages to the organization.

What the client gets distributed computing without worrying about every one of these connections to assets that are robotized, is fundamentally the same to an oversaw remote PC, you might have GUI or be controlled by means of summon interfacing with IP alloted to that virtual machine.

These assets can be shared, and in addition a client does not require, another might make them help, clients spare expenses and boost advantages to the organization.

The convergence of every one of these parts in a server farm has numerous points of interest. A standout amongst the most inquisitive cases is cooling. Rather than cooling every group freely, it is much less expensive direct cooling the room where they are, keeping a consistent temperature and stickiness controlled.

Anybody can get to the cloud administrations, costs are less expensive than you may anticipate. You simply need to look around the site of three of the biggest suppliers of these administrations: Google, Microsoft and Amazon and check by yourself.

Examination of stages and advancements Cloud

The Cloud innovation has kept on progressing lately at a rate at no other time seen on the Internet.

Innovations that did not exist three years prior OpenShift Docker or have gone ahead to wind up pioneers in their field. Here we survey the real advancements in every territory with its own qualities and shortcomings.

Open Cloud stages (IaaS + PaaS)

Amazon Web Services He was the main player to enter the business sector and keeps on being the most far reaching stage now. It is well over the opposition as far as usefulness, number of datacenters and number of clients.

It is essential to look through every one of the administrations offered before beginning a specially appointed advancement since they cover practically all that you may require: bbdd oversaw servers, CDN, firewall, checking, tails, and so forth.

On the off chance that we needed to put a catch is that, with couple of special cases, depends on restrictive advancements.

Google Cloud Platform

He later went available yet has a limit of extraordinary development, it can do in months what different stages take years and a little while later has figured out how to have an extremely finish offer.

Your offer is lower than the Amazon yet is less difficult to utilize and less expensive.

We can likewise take note of that it is essentially taking into account open models and utilizing the same Google datacenters, associated by own fiber and consistent advancement.

Windows Azure

It has a thorough scope of advancements Microsoft as well as open source advances, which shockingly Microsoft is making a major wager as of late.

It highlights its combination with legacy frameworks, as it is considered from its beginning as a half and half Cloud. On the other hand we can say that administration is not exceptionally natural.

Other mainstream stages are Rackspace, the one and only that gives you “Uncovered Metal” to bridle the full force of the holders without virtualization layer and Heroku, pioneer stage and benchmark for how design ought to be a PaaS. Likewise bluemix IBM, HP and Oracle Cloud Helion are putting the batteries with their exclusive stages yet not yet achieve the level of the pioneers of the business sector.

PaaS for your Private Cloud

OpenShift

Variant 2 depended on restrictive innovation layouts by Red Hat and had numerous inadequacies, yet has as of late dispatched form 3, which has been revamped the format motor around Docker and Kubernetes.

It is presently a standout amongst the most fascinating alternatives for Private Cloud, as it depends on open guidelines, coordination with open source advances reference and has a relentlessly developing business sector. The disadvantages are that the documentation is befuddling and that the greater part of the data accessible on the Internet is of adaptation 2.

It has a paid variant with backing from Red Hat and a free form OpenShift Origin.

Cloud Foundry

PaaS stage most broadly utilized open source and backings more innovations. Notwithstanding its extensive variety of innovations additionally it covers the whole life cycle of programming devices for persistent conveyance.

Alternately we can say that establishment is mind boggling and as of late has been to some degree lingering behind OpenShift 3. It additionally has a paid adaptation, Pivotal Cloud Foundry, with additional elements and a to some degree easier taking care of.

Other well known stages are Deis, light and in view of Docker and Kubernetes; Eucalyptus, good with AWS; and Apache Stratos, with an offer of even little cartridges.

IaaS for your Private Cloud

OpenStack It is the open source IaaS stage more far reaching and develop. It permits you to deal with your interior datacenter like a private Cloud, with a comparable visual amazon board. likewise incorporates with Docker and as of late with Kubernetes, which now covers every one of the requirements of an IaaS. By putting an obstacle we can say that it is easy to introduce and oversee.

Different options, for example, Apache CloudStack are still well underneath OpenStack.

Cloud advancements to construct your impromptu (open or private)

Docker

Open source extend that permits you to handle holders, a sort of virtual machines, yet more lightweight and completely versatile. They permit you to epitomize any design, making it an independent drinking compartment, with the goal that it can be controlled by standard operations and run reliably on any equipment.

It is expecting a genuine unrest in the way you oversee and send situations. It is most prescribed to mount specially appointed situations with open source advancements, whether out in the open or private cloud choice.

Its spoilers contend this to some degree youthful for creation, however at present this announcement is no more genuine.

Kubernetes

Open source library that serves as an orchestrator to handle full holders Docker based designs. It is turning into an acknowledged and by different producers, for example, Microsoft, Red Hat, VMware and IBM standard.

Their utilization is vital to control the autoscaling and complex designs sending shaped by a few holders.

CoreOS

open source working framework taking into account Linux, which has been helped and improved to send and scale holders.

A decent decision to take your virtualization layer if your whole base depends on compartments.

Different innovations to consider are Packer, to encourage the administration of holders and Atomic Swarm or as distinct options for the coordination.

Automation enters the area of ERP systems

More and more activities in ERP solutions is automation, the system analyzes the data, predicts and suggests solutions but the final decisions always belongs to the user of the system.

Gartner research firm predicts that spending on enterprise applications will amount in 2019 around the world over 201 billion dollars, an increase that is generated mainly by three factors: development of functional projects related to digital transformation and modernization of systems. Under the concept of modernization lies the monolithicity of reduction systems, increasing their flexibility and increasing “self-service”.

ERP’s self-service system involves the collection of data from multiple sources, intelligent interpreting them and taking action based on analyzed information with minimal user. Self-service solutions can independently analyze not only the growing number of data generated by people but also by all sorts of devices and such devices are connected to the Internet, Gartner analysts think, will be 26 billion in 5 years. - Automating systems has obvious benefits: reducing costs, saving time, the ability to focus on key business processes. It makes it easy to carry out changes in the organization by the ease of the system adapt to new conditions. The philosophy of self-driving ERP is based on the automation of previously manual tasks, reduce or completely eliminate the need to enter data through the use of intelligent recommendations for their implementation. - says Jacek.

With the IoT and the new protocol - Bluetooth continues to grow

Soon, turning the house lights or the heating off will be possible thanks to handheld device similar to a key equipped with Bluetooth. This will be possible thanks to the latest Bluetooth protocol which will significantly increase both reach connections, as well as their capacity.

It is expected that the new protocol will be ratified in the second half of this year and the first based on the Bluetooth device will enter the market early next year. Experts estimate that they will be able to wirelessly transmit data twice as fast at four times the distance (in comparison with the currently used Bluetooth protocol). Many companies belonging to the organizations that support this standard (Bluetooth SIG, Bluetooth Special Interest Group) announced that they are ready to take on an industrial scale production of integrated circuits that support the new Bluetooth for several months.

It is worth noted that the current Bluetooth allows transmission of data over short distances, so that they can thus communicate with other devices that are in the same room. The new standard will cause the transmitters/receivers of Bluetooth will extend to the entire house and will be able to transmit data with much greater speed.

Bluetooth connection has so far played an important role, especially in smartphones, allowing their users to carry on a conversation without holding furnishing in his hand. This technology is also widely used to make wireless connections between your smartphone and the Personal Computer, and recently entering more boldly to medical devices, smart meters and drones, robots and wearable devices.

Companies producing devices equipped with Bluetooth interface have high hopes for the new protocol. They know that thanks to the dynamic development of IoT environments (Internet of Things) demand for this type of device will soon grow dynamically. And there will probably be devices based on Bluetooth technology, rather than on competing with her ZigBee technology or Google’s corporate technology called the Thread.

OpenFlow at a crossroads
 OpenFlow is one of the most important software-controlled SDN network projects. At an early stage of development SDN was only a set of tools. Currently users usually do not implement SDN or OpenFlow but a set of functions carried out with their help.

Why OpenFlow? The development of OpenFlow (OF) from the beginning was very fast, largely thanks to the Open Networking Foundation. SDN vendors present however a large number of its own products, which do not always support the OF. What’s more, at the autumn meeting of the Open Networking User Group in New York, OF she was not a major topic of discussion. The interest was not large and some manufacturers - primarily Cisco and Juniper - showed an averse to the introduction of ONF supported by software in their devices. Other manufacturers like HP, Brocade treat OF as an essential part of their equipment.

It seems that OF was at a crossroads. Analysts are asking themselves whether OF can play a significant role in SDN environment in the long term or not? The answer to this question lies in understanding what OpenFlow actually is. The main idea is a set of programming tools related to network devices. Additionally OF standardizes SDN hardware components from different manufacturers. One example can be a management interface, which is maintained independently of management solutions from different manufacturers. Administrator supports any device with OF, should also easily program all devices supporting OF.
 Many manufacturers extends the standard version of the OF to provide additional functions. Providers cooperate with the ONF on introducing proprietary extensions to the official version of the OF. However there is a significant group of producers who can not see the possibility of supporting OF in their own products. They claim that it doesn’t have all the functions required by some users.

Who uses OpenFlow? The network environment is of the opinion that SDN is a little more than OpenFlow. Tools for network programming do not need an OF in order to correct processes of SDN. OF is only one tool among many that are used in SDN. But you can not minimize its impact on other tools. Contributors use OF in many commercial products. It is worth quoting a few examples:

• HP uses OpenFlow in several products. HP VAN controller leverages is in the programming of network switches in applications such as Network Optimizer which offers dynamic QoS programming for Microsoft Skype for Business (Lync) • Brocade Vyatta Controller uses the OpenDaylight code and uses OpenFlow as an option for developers • Cisco offers support for OpenFlow in a limited number of switches platforms • OpenFlow is an important tool in the Open vSwitch, which is growing in popularity.

Many manufacturers use directly in applications OF SDN, possibly through support to different hardware platforms. OF certainly it is not common in SDN. Moreover, it is available on all platforms switches. Even if it is supported, you can not be sure what functionality will be available for use or whether the functionality supported will be useful in a scalable environment.

Active problem solving In order to solve the problems and make OpenFlow more friendly for manufacturers, ONF has created various working groups and communities. One of the new working ONF groups is FAWG (Forwarding Abstractions Working Group). FAWG is working on OF mechanism to help HAL developers (Hardware Abstraction Layer) to implement OF in their own systems. FAWG activity clearly shows how the ONF collaborates with industry. The aim is to create a complex function that is easy to use. Cooperation will take time but the first steps were already made. For example Broadcom - one of the major suppliers of Ethernet systems - announced today the specifications of the new generation of switches called the OF-DPA 2.0. OF-DPA 2.0 uses a set of functionality developed by a FAWG group. NEC announced that it pursues a strategic partnership with Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise, in which NEC delivers ProgrammableFlow controller, using OpenFlow to program the hardware BUT switches.

OpenFlow in the future OF future is bright. OpenFlow is ready to adapt to requirements of network equipment manufacturers. Key elements of the project are developed without obstacles. If the OF is used to provide the basis of network systems, the different elements of the platform depends on the manufacturer may become important. Even if developers will be used the platform components - containing specific systems, CLI API - will continue to use a single base in the form OF.

Certainly OF has a chance of success if the ‘whitebox’ switches, which will be compatible with the hardware running the network operating system selected by the user. In the open-source software switches there will always be a place for OpenFlow. The users will get a choice of what software to use on the switch and therefore the use of OF. When the network industries in larger extent than hitherto open on OpenFlow, the explosion of network innovation should accelerate. Market will be created for new applications SDN. Increase the flexibility of tasks, streamlined efficiency of IT processes because it will provide a predictable OF networking platform to work on these tasks.

OpenFlow is at a crossroads, but it does not turn back from its path. Certainly all the best is yet to come.

Multiplatform malware

Employees Kaspersky Lab identified a new family of multi-platform malicious programs - Mokes. Trojans attack computers running Linux and Windows, and their main task is to capture the characters entered from the keyboard, make screenshots, as well as spying with cameras and microphones connected to infected devices. Stolen information is sent to a server controlled by cyber criminals.

Detected by Kaspersky Lab analysts Mokes family has been designed as a set of cross-platform malicious programs to monitor victims.

Linux version has the ability to record all the characters that the user of the infected computer is part of the keyboard, capture the sound using the built-in or attached microphone and take screenshots. When you first run the worm ensures its activation with each start of the system and connects to a server controlled by the attackers. The Trojan then attempts to start its functions spyware and regularly sends the collected data to control the cyber criminals. Variant for Windows has the same functionality, but also has a feature that allows you to capture video from a camera connected to the infected computer (eg. The built-in webcam).

"Among the many Linux users there is a perception that the system is free from threats. Unfortunately this is not true and although malicious programs for this platform is not much compared to Windows, our new discovery clearly shows that cybercriminals have not forgotten about Linux. In addition, due to the fact that the Trojans Mokes are cross-platform threats, we can expect to see further members of this family, eg. For OS X "- said Stefan Ortloff, a researcher for. IT security, Kaspersky Lab.
