Scalable Small Cell System with Dual Band, Multi-ModeRonny Haraldsvik
Announced on November 4, 2013 - the new Small Cell supports both LTE and HSPA voice and 3G data simultaneously. "SpiderCloud has already established an early lead in indoor mobile networking. Now it’s hoping to extend that lead in the age of 4G networking with a small cell that can support multiple wireless technologies." (C) Gigaom
The definitive guide for evaluating enterprise WLAN networksAerohive Networks
It is crucial to thoroughly understand the systems management capabilities of any WLAN being considered, since this will be the largest ongoing expense of the overall deployment. The vendor should list and clearly describe every element of the central management system required. Learn how to evaluate properly by reading Aerohive's 2014 WLAN Definitive Guide.
Cloud computing can give the ability of flexibly outsourcing software for supply chain collaboration and infrastructure needs in a better way. Instead of maintaining and paying for maximum use this technology puts forward the method that provides flexibility to add on the way,depending upon the overall business process and network model of supply chain. Ahead of the usual technology publicity,the worth of cloud computing is that it can be a right technology for supporting and managing a constantly cha nging and dynamic network and thus for supply chain management. Because now a day these are the exact visibility and supply chain collaboration needs. Efficient supply chains are a vital necessity for many c ompanies. Supply chain management acts on operational processes,divergent and consolidated information flows and interaction processes with a variety of business partners. Efforts of recent years are usually facing this diversity by creating and organizing central information system solutions. Taking in account all the well-known probl ems of these central information systems,the question arises,whether cloud-based information system s represent a better alternative to establish an IT support for supply chain management .
Towards the extinction of mega data centres? To which extent should the Clou...Thierry Coupaye
Keynote by Thierry Coupaye at the IEEE International Conference on Cloud Networking, Niagara Falls, Canada, October 2015.
Summary: Cloud computing emerged, a decade or so ago, from underused computing and storage ressources in Internet players mega data centres that were thought to be provided "as a service". As a result of this inception, Cloud is often considered as a synonym for massive data center, which somehow fuels a very centralised vision of (cloud) computing and storage provision. However, we might be at a time in which the pendulum begins to swing back. Indeed, several initiatives are emerging around a vision of more geographically distributed clouds where computing and storage resources are made available at the edge of the network, close to users, in complement or replacement of massive remote data centres. This presentation discusses, through some examples, the evolution of cloud architectures towards more distribution, the signs and stakes of these mutations.
