What is Microsoft Azure used for?-Microsoft azure Zabeel Institute
Microsoft Azure, commonly described as Azure, is a cloud computing solution created by Microsoft for building, screening, deploying, and taking care of applications and services through Microsoft-managed data centers.
This presentation walks through the Security and Compliance functionality to customers leveraging Azure as a compute environment. It includes deep-dive references to detailed information on each topic presented.
The cloud is all the rage. Does it live up to its hype? What are the benefits of the cloud? Join me as I discuss the reasons so many companies are moving to the cloud and demo how to get up and running with a VM (IaaS) and a database (PaaS) in Azure. See why the ability to scale easily, the quickness that you can create a VM, and the built-in redundancy are just some of the reasons that moving to the cloud a “no brainer”. And if you have an on-prem datacenter, learn how to get out of the air-conditioning business!
In this presentation, I have talked about Resiliency in Azure.
I have also talked about how you can do Azure VM Improvements and Maintenance. Along with that, I have also talked about Disaster Recovery with ASR.

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
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

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.

30. Status Message Query
Status Message Query has a very specific use. The site
status and component status nodes show status messages
related to a very specific site system or component.
Although there are some filtering options these may not be
sufficient when troubleshooting an issue. In such case you
can use the status message queries to create custom
queries for status messages including status messages
from client.
The primary purpose of status message queries are to
locate stored status messages.
32. To create a data query:
Managing Data Queries
Import an existing query or build a query from scratch

33. What Is Inventory Collection?
Inventory collection is:
• The process of gathering information that describes the hardware and
software installed on a client computer
• Configured by using client settings for the hierarchy or assigned on a per-
collection basis
Software
inventory data
Hardware
inventory data
Asset
intelligence data
34. Management Tasks That Use Inventory Data
Uses of hardware and software inventory data include:
• Building queries based upon hardware configuration or installed
software
• Building collections on the basis of queried inventory results
• Creating reports to display hardware configuration or installed software
details
• Maintaining corporate standards
• Troubleshooting client problems
• Collecting files (software inventory only)
35. The Process of Inventory Collection
View inventory information at a site after its
database is updated by this process:
1. Client gets settings and
collects inventory
2. Deliver data to
management point
3. Deliver data to site server
4. Update site database
5. Replicate to the central administration site

36. How Is Hardware Inventory Collected?
• A hardware inventory obtains information by
querying:
• WMI database on Windows client computers
• CMI database named OMI on Linux, UNIX, and
Mac OS X
•The hardware inventory agent collects:
• An initial full hardware inventory
• Subsequent delta inventories
38. How Is Software Inventory Collected?
The software inventory process:
• Collects data directly from files by reading the file header information
• Collects file system details even from unknown files that may not have
information in their file header
