  • Generation 4 Modular Data Center

    - by kaleidoscope
    Microsoft’s launched Generation 4 Modular Data Center design at the PDC 09 - The 20-foot container built on container-based model. Microsoft says the use of server-packed containers – known as Pre-Assembled Components (PACs) – will allow it to slash the cost of building its new data centers. Completely optimized for outdoor use, with a design that relies upon fresh air (”free cooling”) rather than air conditioning. Its exterior is designed to draw fresh air into the cold aisle and expel hot air from the rear of the hot aisle.

  • Are two database trips reasonable for a login system?

    - by Randolph Potter
    I am designing a login system for a project, and have an issue about it requiring two trips to the database when a user logs in. User types in username and password Database is polled and password hash is retrieved for comparative purposes (first trip) Code tests hash against entered password (and salt), and if verified, resets the session ID New session ID and username are sent back to the database to write a row to the login table, and generate a login ID for that session. EDIT: I am using a random salt. Does this design make sense? Am I missing something? Is my concern about two trips unfounded? Comments and suggestions are welcome.

  • Business Intelligence goes Big Data

    - by Alliances & Channels Redaktion
    Big Data stellt die nächste große Herausforderung für die IT-Branche dar: Massen von Daten aus immer mehr Quellen – aus sozialen Netzwerken, Telekommunikations- und Weblogs, RFID-Lesern etc. – müssen logisch verknüpft, in Echtzeit integriert und verarbeitet werden. Doch wie sieht es mit der praktischen Umsetzung aus? Eine europaweite Studie von Steria Mummert Consulting zeigt: Lediglich 28 % der Unternehmen haben bereits heute eine übergreifende, abgestimmte Business-Intelligence-Strategie implementiert. Vorherrschend sind BI-Insellösungen, die schon jetzt an den Grenzen ihrer Kapazität arbeiten. Daten werden also bisher nur eingeschränkt als wertschöpfende Ressource genutzt! Das Ergebnis der Studie klingt erschreckend, doch Unternehmen können es zu Ihrem Vorteil nutzen: Wer jetzt das Thema Big Data anpackt, kann sich einen gewinnbringenden Vorsprung vor dem Wettbewerb sichern. Wie sieht die Analyse-Umgebung der Zukunft aus? Wie und wo kann Big Data für den Geschäftserfolg genutzt werden? Antworten darauf liefert die Kunden-Event Reihe von Oracle und dem Oracle Platinum Partner Steria Mummert Consulting: Hier werden Strategien entwickelt, wie Unternehmen mit Information Discovery ihr BI-Potenzial auf dem Weg zur Big Data Schritt für Schritt ausbauen können. Highlights aus München Durchweg positives Feedback haben wir aus München, der ersten Station der Eventreihe am 23.7., erhalten: Nicht nur die tolle Location, das "La Villa" im Bamberger Haus, überzeugte. Die 31 Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmer konnten auch inhaltlich eine Menge mitnehmen – unter anderem einen konkreten Vorschlag für ihre eigene Roadmap in Richtung Big Data. Die Ausgangsfrage des Tages lautete – einfach und umfassend zugleich: Wie können wir den Überblick in einer komplexen Welt behalten? Den Status quo in Europa für Business Intelligence präsentierte Steria Mummert Consulting entlang der Europäischen biMA®-Studie 2012/13. Anhand von Anwendungsbeispielen aus ihrer Praxis präsentierten die geladenen Experten von Oracle und Steria Mummert Consulting verschiedene Lösungsansätze. Eine sehr anschauliche Demo zu Endeca zeigte beispielsweise, wie einfach und flexibel ein Dashboard sein kann: Hier gibt es keine vordefinierten Reports, stattdessen können Entscheider die Filter einfach per Drag & Drop verändern und bekommen so einen individuell sturkturierten Überblick über ihre Daten. Einen Ausblick bot die Session zu Oracle Business Analytics für mobile Anwendungen und Real-Time Decisions. Fazit: eine gelungene Mischung aus Überblicks-Informationen und ganz konkreten Ideen für die spezifischen Anwendungsbereiche der Kunden. Die Eventreihe „BI goes Big Data“ macht im August in Hamburg und Frankfurt Station. Die kostenfreie Veranstaltung findet zusammen mit Steria Mummert Consulting statt und richtet sich an Endkunden.

  • Which purpose do armor points serve?

    - by Bane
    I have seen a mechanic which I call "armor points" in many games: Quake, Counter Strike, etc. Generally, while the player has these armor points, he takes less damage. However, they act in a similar fashion that health points do: you lose them by taking said damage. Why would you design such a feature? Is this just health 2.0, or am I missing something? To me, armor only makes sense in, for example, RPG games, where it is a constant that determines your resistance. But I don't see why would it need to be reduceable during combat.

  • Distance Education in Computer Science - HCI

    - by Rionmonster
    I have been a software engineer / graphic designer for a few years and have recently been considering furthering my education in the field. (It was actually a very generous Christmas present) I would primarily be interested in something like Human Computer Interaction or a similar "creative technology" that involves heavy UI/UX Design, prototyping or Information Architecture. Anyways - I still plan on working full-time and was looking into part-time distance programs and was wondering if anyone had some experience with pursuing a similar degree (either from a distance or in-person) and could share their experiences. Thanks!

  • Sync profile/data/software for multiple computers?

    - by ultimatebuster
    Is it possible to sync all the user settings (interface settings, program settings), as well as programs for multiple computers? Data is not as important, though the settings (which is technically data, but not that kind of data, like music, files...) and applications are. Also, it will not sync the drivers. (Example: 1 computer uses bumblebee and the other uses ATI catalyst, and maybe there's different network drivers.. etc.)

  • Microsoft Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX)

    - by Charles Cline
    For all you admins and other technical people out there who have watched the Windows OS spool the data from network storage to your workstation and then back to network storage, watch for Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX).  I saw ODX at TechEd a few weeks ago and the data movement is primarily kept at the backend storage network.  EMC and other storage vendors are already posting about when they will have this functionality.Here's some information about it:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh848056(v=vs.85).aspxhttp://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/hh848056(v=vs.85).aspx

  • TDD with SQL and data manipulation functions

    - by Xophmeister
    While I'm a professional programmer, I've never been formally trained in software engineering. As I'm frequently visiting here and SO, I've noticed a trend for writing unit tests whenever possible and, as my software gets more complex and sophisticated, I see automated testing as a good idea in aiding debugging. However, most of my work involves writing complex SQL and then processing the output in some way. How would you write a test to ensure your SQL was returning the correct data, for example? Then, say if the data wasn't under your control (e.g., that of a 3rd party system), how can you efficiently test your processing routines without having to hand write reams of dummy data? The best solution I can think of is making views of the data that, together, cover most cases. I can then join those views with my SQL to see if it's returning the correct records and manually process the views to see if my functions, etc. are doing what they're supposed to. Still, it seems excessive and flakey; particularly finding data to test against...

  • ubuntu 11.10 CellC data card

    - by Armien
    In 11.10 I find that I can connect to the internet via broadband connection successfully. The problem is that I cannot have the data card attached to the machine while the machine boots up. If I leave the data card in the machine during startup, the data card is not picked up and I then cannot connect to the internet. I must first boot up my machine, login, attach the data card into the usb port, wait so 30 seconds. The broadband connection name will then appear in the network dropdown at the top of the screen. An internet connect is now possible via broadband. Please let me know what must be done to fix this. Thanks Armien

  • Designing a game - Where to start?

    - by OghmaOsiris
    A friend of mine and I are planning a game together to work on in our free time. It's not an extensive game, but it's not a simple one either. He's working on the story behind the game while I'm working on the graphics and code. I don't really know where to start with the game. We know what the basic type of game it's going to be and how it would be played, but I'm having a hard time of actually knowing where to begin. I have Xcode open but I don't really even know what I should be designing first. What is some advice for this writer's block? Where is a good place to start with a game? Should I design all the graphics and layout before even touching Xcode? Should I program the things I know I'll have difficulty with first before getting to the easy stuff?

  • Are the famous websites handmade? [closed]

    - by Mithun Chuckraverthy
    I'm a newbie in web designing. I always wanted to build a professional quality website by myself. So, I started learning HTML/XHTML and CSS for presentation; and, JavaScript and PHP/MySQL for scripting. I wonder, would the developers of famous websites design them by hand? Or, have they found out any better idea of using softwares? If so, can you tell me what are they? (By the word famous, I mean any websites that are liked by millions of people all over the world. Like: Google, Facebook etc.) Thanks in advance!

  • Why appending to a list in Scala should have O(n) time complexity?

    - by Jubbat
    I am learning Scala at the moment and I just read that the execution time of the append operation for a list (:+) grows linearly with the size of the list. Appending to a list seems like a pretty common operation. Why should the idiomatic way to do this be prepending the components and then reversing the list? It can't also be a design failure as implementation could be changed at any point. From my point of view, both prepending and appending should be O(1). Is there any legitimate reason for this?

  • Profiling and containing memory per system

    - by chadb
    I have been interesting in profiling and keeping a managed memory pool for each subsystem, so I could get statistic on how much memory was being used in something such as sounds or graphics. However, what is the best design for doing this? I was thinking of using multiple allocators and just using one per subsystem, however, that would result in global variables for my allocators (or so it would seem to me). Another approach I have seen/been suggested is to just overload new and pass in an allocator for a parameter. I had a similar question over on stackoverflow here with a bounty, however, it seems as if perhaps I was too vague or just there is not enough people with knowledge in the subject.

  • Can it be useful to build an application starting with the GUI?

    - by Grant Palin
    The trend in application design and development seems to be starting with the "guts": the domain, then data access, then infrastructure, etc. The GUI seems to usually come later in the process. I wonder if it could ever be useful to build the GUI first... My rationale is that by building at least a prototype GUI, you gain a better idea of what needs to happen behind the scenes, and so are in a better position to start work on the domain and supporting code. I can see an issue with this practice in that if the supporting code is not yet written, there won't be much for the GUI layer to actually do. Perhaps building mock objects or throwaway classes (somewhat like is done in unit testing) would provide just enough of a foundation to build the GUI on initially. Might this be a feasible idea for a real project? Maybe we could add GDD (GUI Driven Development) to the acronym stable...

  • Excel 2013 Data Explorer and GeoFlow make 3-D maps quick and easy

    - by John Paul Cook
    Excel add-ins Data Explorer and GeoFlow work well together, mainly because they just work. Simple, fast, and powerful. I started Excel 2013, used Data Explorer to search for, examine, and then download latitude-longitude data and finally used GeoFlow to plot an interactive 3-D visualization. I didn’t use any fancy Excel commands and the entire process took less than 3 minutes. You can download the GeoFlow preview from here . It can also be used with Office 365.

  • Is the "One Description Table to rule them all" approch good?

    - by DavRob60
    Long ago, I worked (as a client) with a software which use a centralized table for it's codified element. Here, as far as I remember, how the table look like : Table_Name (PK) Field_Name (PK) Code (PK) Sort_Order Description So, instead of creating a table every time they need a codified field, they where just adding row in this table with the new Table_Name and Field_Name. I'm sometime tempted to use this pattern in some database I design, but I have resisted to this as from now, I think there's something wrong with this, but I cannot put the finger on it. It is just because you land with some of the structure logic within the Data or something else?

  • String or binary data would be truncated.

    - by Derek Dieter
    This error message is relatively straight forward. The way it normally happens is when you are trying to insert data from a table that contains values that have larger data lengths than the table you are trying to insert into. An example of this would be trying to insert data from a permanent table, into [...]

  • Use a GUI designer or write it yourself for the desktop?

    - by TheLQ
    Writing a GUI for a program has always been a daunting, depressing, and frustrating task. It doesn't matter which language, its extremely hard to get what I want. Especially in compiled languages like Java where a change takes a minute or two to build. The result is that I increasingly use GUI designers for some of my project. Sure their is some spagetti code, but as long as I leave the configuration and a note saying "This was designed with X" I have no qualms with doing this. Is this an okay way to design a GUI? More importantly, is this what most people do? Or is the common way to just sit down and write it out?
