This document is an introduction to a course on computing systems. The course will cover how computers work from the most basic level of bits and logic gates up through programming languages like C. It will discuss how computers are organized internally and designed, how design affects programming and applications, and the relationships between hardware and software. The course will examine the different levels of abstraction that computers operate on, from electronic devices to machine architecture to high-level programming. It will look at representation of information, basic logic gates, the von Neumann model of computation, assembly language programming, and the C programming language.

1. What is IT infrastructure and what are its components?
2.What are the stages and technology drivers of IT infrastructure evolution?
3. What are the current trends in computer hardware platforms? Describe the evolving mobile
platform, grid computing, and cloud computing
4. What are the current trends in software platforms? Define and describe open source software
and Linux and explain their business benefits.
5.What are the challenges of managing IT infrastructure and management solutions? Name and
describe the management challenges posed by IT infrastructure
Solution
1.IT infrastructure is defined as a shared technology resources which is sum of all free and
licensed system software,third party services,owned or leased equipment that provide the
platform for the firm’s specific information system applications. IT infrastructure includes
hardware, software, and services that are shared across the entire firm.
2.The stages of IT infrastructure evolutions is began on the year 1930 and still it is continuing.
Electronic Accounting Machine-(1930-1950)->This era is began to replace Human effort from
accounting work.Machine started doing accounting and finance work effectivly and much more
errorfree than Human.
General-Purpose mainframe and minicomputer Era(1959-continuing)->This era has been started
by IBM, And it still persist in the position of supplying mainframe computer.Mainframe
computers are centralized computing with networks of terminal concentrated in the computing
department.In the mean while early models contained proprietary software and data.Mainframe
comuters able to process a wide variety of software and data ,It could able to process huge
amounts of data and transmission.
Personal Computer Era(1980 to Present)->Personal computers make a boom in both Home and
corporate sector .Personal computer makers like Microsoft and Apple take forward the evolution
by providing Desktops and Laptops which doubles the User effort.
Client/Server Era(1983 to Present)->as the desktop and laptop personal computers became more
powerful and cheaper, businesses began using them to replace mini-computers and some
mainframe computers by networking them together. Think of an octopus, with the body
representing the server and the tentacles representing the clients. At the heart of every network is
a server. It can be a mainframe, midrange, minicomputer, workstation, or a souped-up personal
computer.The client computer is the node on the network that users need to access and process
transactions and data through the network. Rather than one server trying to do it all, each server
is assigned a specific task on an application server.
Enterprise Internet computing Era(1992 to Present)->Perhaps no other era has seen the explosive
growth in functionality and popularity as this era. The problems created by proprietary, closed
systems are being solved by the standards and open-source software created in this era. The
promise of truly integrated hardware, softwar.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.
