"How IOT, Cloud and Cognitive technology interconnect "
This talk positions "cloud", Internet of Things (IOT) and data analysis to each other. After generating massive amounts of information from the IOT, data is collected, stored and formatted in the Cloud. Then, based on Cognitive technology, data is analyzed with the goal of showing some unexpected outcome. This analysis can be used for any UX-oriented development, and generate insights for new UX perspectives. Kristiaan will describe some case studies; each of the subjects' first "stand alone" analysis, then combined in a bigger context to understand their dependencies.

Life used to be easy. If you were an Exchange or SharePoint Administrator the question was when, and how to convince your IT Manager and/or CIO of the value, to upgrade your system to the latest version. While we have faced hosted vs. on-premises discussions, the cloud (IaaS, SaaS,etc) increases the complexity of Infrastructure decisions and gives a direct voice to the business stakeholder. In this session we will analyze a real-life scenario where a company must figure out not only how to change their infrastructure from Exchange/SharePoint 2010 to 2013 but where the content should live. Making this decisions based on business needs, compliance and security is Infrastructure as Information Architecture (IaIA).

Dalle soluzioni di BackUp & Recovery al Data management a 360° Jürgen Ambrosi
Modernizzare le soluzioni di Data Protection è oggi un tema dettato dalla rapida comparsa di fenomeni come la Digital Trasformation (o Revolution), la crescita esponenziale del volume dei dati riscontrata ed attesa nel prossimo futuro, l’adozione del Cloud e delle nuove Applicazioni, nonché il GDPR.
Non possono più fare affidamento a soluzioni di Backup poco efficienti, costose e molto spesso complesse. Conseguentemente ci si sta orientando verso nuove strategie di protezione del dato.
Esploreremo la piattaforma Veritas nativamente integrata “360° Data Management”, una piattaforma integrata che offra la protezione, l’alta affidabilità e la visibilità del dato. Primo elemento fondamentale è l’introduzione di una soluzione di Data Protection Unificata con unica console per ambienti fisici, virtuali e in Cloud capace di agire proattivamente per individuare in quale ambiente siano depositati i dati di interesse e quali dati strategici debbano essere rapidamente protetti e preservati in modo sicuro, contenendone il volume ai soli necessari per garantire i servizi di business.
Le soluzioni tecnologiche per il disaster recovery e business continuityJürgen Ambrosi
Oggi è vitale per le aziende consolidare il proprio vantaggio competitivo sul mercato di riferimento. La crescente quantità di dati aziendali quotidianamente raccolta, elaborata ed archiviata costituisce di fatto un prezioso asset per generare nuove opportunità di business. La gestione di tale importante servizio coinvolge direttamente l’IT che, conseguentemente, deve adottare tutte le misure atte a garantirne la continuità operativa per rispettare i livelli di RTO e RPO fissati dagli obiettivi aziendali e dalle normative vigenti.Le soluzioni di Business Continuity e di Disaster Recovery indirizzano questa esigenza in modo puntuale, garantendo la funzionalità di servizio anche a fronte di fenomeni accidentali (guasto, fenomeni naturali, attacchi informatici, errore umano, ecc.) che potrebbero presentarsi nell’esercizio, evitando il rischio di interruzione del business e/o di incorrere in sanzioni amministrative.
Le soluzioni Veritas Resiliency Platform e Veritas CloudMobility permettono di realizzare infrastrutture di Business Continuity e Disaster Recovery con molta flessibilità architetturale. In particolare, entrambe – seppur con strategie diverse – permettono di sfruttare l’interessante opportunità di servizi in Cloud offerta dai vari Service Providers, risolvendo inoltre qualsiasi possibile complessità e rischio di lock-in di tipo contrattuale nell'adozione di queste tecnologie.
Le soluzioni tecnologiche per il Copy Data ManagementJürgen Ambrosi
L'incremento dei dati presenti sui sistemi aziendali impone all’IT di confrontarsi con l’aumento della complessità e dei costi che ne derivano per l’adeguamento tecnologico.
Uno dei motivi principali che causano l’aumento dei dati è tuttavia rappresentato dalla sempre più frequente richiesta di copie attendibili e rapide degli stessi, per far fronte alle diverse esigenze di business nell’avvio di nuovi progetti o di routine come test, archiviazione, backup, disaster recovery, reporting, ecc. Inoltre molto spesso non si ha il pieno controllo di chi ha accesso agli storage per eseguire tali copie con evidente esposizione a rischi di sottrazione illecita dei dati.
Venendo incontro a tale tipo di necessità, Veritas presenta Velocity, la propria soluzione di Copy Data Management che permette di ottenere in tempi rapidi copie di dati con accesso automatizzato e controllato, evitando inutili proliferazioni di copie e conseguente esposizione a rischi di atti fraudolenti.
L’assistente virtuale che informa gli studenti: l'esperienza del Politecnico ...Jürgen Ambrosi
Il Politecnico di Milano ha implementato una chatbot che consente agli studenti, di interagire con una piattaforma alimentata da intelligenza artificiale. Il sistema sfrutta IBM Watson Conversation, un servizio cognitivo basato su cloud, per migliorare e facilitare l'esperienza. L'assistente virtuale è addestrato per rispondere a domande relative a tre aree specifiche nell'ambito del supporto agli studenti: ammissioni, certificati e tasse. In aggiunta, se le informazioni richieste esulano dalle aree di riferimento, la chatbot rimanda la ricerca delle risposte a pagine specifiche o ai contatti di segreteria.
L'assistente virtuale consente di fornire un servizio continuo agli studenti, senza limiti di orario. Informazioni aggiornate e dettagliate sui quesiti più comuni saranno sempre disponibile e fruibili grazie ad un'interazione guidata. La chatbot è attiva nell'area pubblica del sito e chiunque può porre i quesiti senza la necessità di autenticarsi, ovviamente ciò implica che le informazioni fornite non siano personalizzate.
Dal punto di vista dell'università, la chatbot consente alla segreteria di fornire un servizio di maggior qualità, potendo questa dedicarsi maggiormente al soddisfare le esigenze più specifiche dei singoli studenti.
Le soluzioni tecnologiche a supporto del mondo OpenStack e ContainerJürgen Ambrosi
L’interesse da parte delle aziende verso soluzioni come i Containers e cloud-based come OpenStack è ampiamente confermato dal trend positivo rilevato dagli analisti. I benefici derivanti dall’adozione di tali soluzioni nell’ambito IT sono rappresentati dalla possibitità di realizzare architetture maggiormente agili, scalabili ed economiche in grado di soddisfare le sempre piu’ stingenti esigenze di business ed affrontare le pressioni competitive. Veritas presenta le proprie soluzioni software defined storage Veritas ™ HyperScale per OpenStack e Veritas ™ HyperScale for Containers quali piattaforme abilitanti all’introduzione di tali nuove soluzioni tecnologiche garantendo altresì un livello di affidabilità Enterprise-class.
Webinar Fondazione CRUI e VMware: VMware vRealize SuiteJürgen Ambrosi
vRealize Suite è una piattaforma di Cloud Management di classe enterprise progettata appositamente per il cloud ibrido che consente di distribuire e gestire rapidamente l’infrastruttura e le applicazioni senza compromettere il controllo IT.
Continua il ciclo di webinar in collaborazione con Veritas Technologies.
In questo secondo appuntamento abbiamo visto le soluzioni Veritas di Software Defined Storage.
Il settore IT è oggi una delle aree aziendali maggiormente impattate dal fenomeno dell’aumento esponenziale dei dati. Conseguentemente, gli IT Manager devono far fronte all'aumento dei costi e della complessità per l’implementazione di soluzioni di Storage atte a contenere la crescita del volume dei dati.
Al tempo stesso essi devono operare delle scelte orientate a soluzioni in grado di soddisfare i livelli prestazionali sempre più elevati richiesti dalle nuove applicazioni di business mantenendo altresì la funzionalità di quelle legacy.
L’implementazione di hardware NAS ad alte prestazioni o l’adozione di soluzioni storage di tipo diversificato non rappresentano oggi la soluzione ideale dal punto di vista degli impatti economici e di gestione. Sono infatti disponibili nuove tecnologie, sviluppate proprio in risposta all'esigenza di efficientamento e al contenimento dei costi, che permettono di realizzare infrastrutture che consentono di massimizzare l’utilizzo delle soluzioni storage già presenti nel Data Center e l’adozione si soluzioni Object Storage.
Allo scopo Veritas presenta la propria linea di soluzioni Software Defined Storage.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
