I'm using the Enterprise Application Block and my application is hosted in a Cloud Environment. I was wondering what else I need to do with my implementation to make it as efficient as possible. ...
The requirements for PCI standards include installing a firewall, restrict physical access to servers, using and regularly updating antivirus and malware software etc as outlined here If you host your application in the cloud , how can you ensure that you meet these PCI requirements ...
Azure itself is imo PaaS and not IaaS. Do you agree? MS gurantees an availability of 99% and a strong consistency. You can find MS SLAs here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsazure/sla (three SLAs Uptime: http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/4889/unbenanntqt.png ) I can't find anyhing about how they are going to archive that. Do they do b...
Hi, I have read about Windows Azure but to get deeper into this technology, I need to (obviously) use it. I have a small ASP.NET site which gets little traffic and I am thinking that hosting this on Azure would save me money. Other than this, what other factors would contribute to a project being suitable for the cloud? Thanks ...
I am looking to do some quite processor-intensive brute force processing for string matching. I have run my prototype in a multi-threaded environment and compared the performance to an implementation using Gridgain with a couple of nodes (also multithreaded). The performance I observed was that my Gridgain implementation performed slow...
Since I am writing a seminar work on "Transaction Processing in MS Azure" for my university I wanted to launch a bank-transfer simulation. I already have implemented a getting-started thingy to get familiar with Azure: http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/dhananjaycoder/48/Default.aspx . Question: What is the most easy way (using SQL ...
Hi Guys, I wrote a few scripts to monitor an uploads directory for changes, then capture the file uploaded/changed and push it to cloud files using a ruby script. This all works well 95% of the time, the only exception is that occasionally, ruby fails with a 'file does not exist' exception. I am assuming that the ruby 'push' script is ...
Both replication and clustering are terms for servers setups with physical (real) servers, usually implemented on a DB or AS level. Now the question: In a virtualized environment with "easy" scalable servers (touching clustering) and a higher availability (DB replication) through the means of high availability of the virtual server by t...
What type of rig (server config) would you recommend for building your cloud own server. ...
As far as I know, Cloud computing might be a evolution in software architect, and it will replace some current architectures, such as client-server. These two architecture seem to share similarities for me (I know very little about both), but I don't know the differences between them. What are the cons and pros of cloud computing over ...
I know that Amazon EC2 gives out a 'cloud' platform -- ie. A virtualized instance of a Linux or Windows box. However, I can't find other (large!) vendors doing this? For example, I tried Microsoft Azure, and it doesn't seem to issue out boxes, but just the development platforms or service platforms (ie database, exchange etc.) Am I miss...
Yes, as you might guess, I want to ask about Cloud-computing. I doubt that why it's called that. Which characteristics of it made that name? ...
I searched through internet but found nothing. The whitepapers of Windows Azure Platform say something like that: In its first release, the maximum size of a single database in SQL Azure Database is 10 gigabytes A few things are omitted in the technology’s first release, however, such as the SQL Common Language Runtime...
Greetings to all the smart people around here! I'd like to ask whether it is feasible or a good idea at all to deploy a Java enterprise web application to a Cloud such as Amazon EC2. More exactly, I'm looking for infrastructure options for an application that shall handle few hundred users with long but neither CPU nor memory intensive ...
I'm writing this as DevConnections in Las Vegas is happening. Visual Studio 2010 has been released and I now have this 3GB beast installed to my machine. (I'll admit, it has some nice features.) However, while the install was monopolizing my computer's resources I began to wish that my IDE worked more like Google Documents (instantly ...
What is the significance of new cloud platforms and databases like Microsoft Azure and Amazon EC2? Is it a replacement for enterprise application platforms like .net or JEE in a cloud environment? Is it neccessary to use these or other cloud specific platforms, or can we implement .net or JEE on a cloud based environment? ...
Hi, can you recommend me the books about Cloud Computing? Thanks. ...
What is the best practise solution for programmaticaly changing the XML file where the number of instances are definied ? I know that this is somehow possible with this csmanage.exe for the Windows Azure API. How can i measure which Worker Role VMs are actually working? I asked this question on MSDN Community forums as well: http://soci...
