The document discusses some of the key challenges organizations face in moving from dedicated to shared cloud computing resources. Specifically, it notes that many users will find that the internal changes required to adapt organizations and processes to shared cloud models present significant adoption hurdles. These changes include adjusting internal politics and coordination between departments to transition to cloud models where resources are shared rather than dedicated.

Introducing new Proof-of-Stake based networks - Why your network participatio...

Michael Ng

This is the slide deck presented by StakeWith.Us for the monthly dappers meetup in Singapore. Synopsis: Proof of Work networks are inherently more secure due to high compute cost required for DDoS attacks. However, these networks face scalability bottlenecks as it takes a long time to determine consensus on chain finality - it is very important to ensure that transactions on the blockchain are irreversible, which is why exchanges imposes block confirmations on deposits! Such bottleneck proves to be a bane in accelerating blockchain adoption, especially in this day and age where payment confirmation takes less than 5 seconds with the click of a button. In order for a blockchain network to be able to serve the needs of the global market, transactions need to be finalized in a much quicker manner. Multiple Proof of Stake based networks have launched to date. It has proved to be the optimal solution to scalability bottlenecks as these networks prioritize fast finality with limited security and liveness tradeoffs. Come join us to learn more about various Proof of Stake based networks, why we think they are built for adoption and how you can play your part to show your support by bootstrapping these networks!

The Move to the Cloud for Regulated Industries

dirkbeth

The document discusses the move to cloud computing for regulated industries like pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device companies. It notes that while 95% of people claim they don't use the cloud, they actually do for online banking, shopping, social media, and storing photos and music. The cloud provides benefits like high reliability, unlimited storage, easy sharing, and supporting enterprise software. However, regulated industries have additional requirements for cloud applications around authentication, encryption, compliance, auditing, and platform qualifications. Examples of potential cloud uses in pharma include drug discovery, clinical data collection, gene sequencing, and collaboration with partners. The future includes benefits like global accessibility, availability, and collaborative environments.

OSS Presentation Keynote by Hal Stern

OpenStorageSummit

The document discusses how networks and applications can become more aware of each other to improve the experience for end users. Currently, networks and applications operate independently without much visibility into each other. The document proposes that applications share information about end users and traffic with networks, and networks share information about topology, bandwidth, and resources with applications. This would allow applications to optimize content placement and resource usage, and networks to gain insights to better optimize traffic and provide new services. The document argues this type of programmable network can improve areas like security, performance, analytics and more.

Through succinct descriptions, he delineates the diverse types of OS, from single-user, single-task environments like early MS-DOS iterations, to multi-user, multi-tasking systems exemplified by modern Linux distributions. Crucial components like the kernel and shell are dissected, highlighting their indispensable functions in resource management and user interface interaction. Das elucidates how the kernel acts as the central nervous system, orchestrating process scheduling, memory allocation, and device management. Meanwhile, the shell serves as the gateway for user commands, bridging the gap between human input and machine execution. 💻 The narrative then shifts to a captivating exploration of prominent desktop OSs, Windows, macOS, and Linux. Windows, with its globally ubiquitous presence and user-friendly interface, emerges as a cornerstone in personal computing history. macOS, lauded for its sleek design and seamless integration with Apple's ecosystem, stands as a beacon of stability and creativity. Linux, an open-source marvel, offers unparalleled flexibility and security, revolutionizing the computing landscape. 🖥️ Moving to the realm of mobile devices, Das unravels the dominance of Android and iOS. Android's open-source ethos fosters a vibrant ecosystem of customization and innovation, while iOS boasts a seamless user experience and robust security infrastructure. Meanwhile, discontinued platforms like Symbian and Palm OS evoke nostalgia for their pioneering roles in the smartphone revolution. The journey concludes with a reflection on the ever-evolving landscape of OS, underscored by the emergence of real-time operating systems (RTOS) and the persistent quest for innovation and efficiency. As technology continues to shape our world, understanding the foundations and evolution of operating systems remains paramount. Join Pravash Chandra Das on this illuminating journey through the heart of computing. 🌟
