Microsoft‘s app innovation fest held in Delhi

Microsoft's technology event TechDays, which promotes application development particularly for its recently launched Windows 8 platform, reached its last destination of the National Capital today after covering 50 cities across the country in the last four months.

The one-day event here saw participation of over 700 IT enthusiasts and professionals, the software giant said in a release. 

The event that was kicked off in October 2012 and covered 50 cities saw over 15,000 participants, it added. 

"The all-India developer and IT pro extravaganza touched ... 50 cities in the last four months, providing them a unique learning experience and helping them convert their ideas into real apps," the software giant said. 

TechDays gives opportunities to bring Indian developers to shape the apps ecosystem across multiple devices and hardware forms, providing developers the prospect to maximise their revenues, it added. 

The event was kicked off at Mysore in October 2012 and covered cities like Trivandrum, Hyderabad, Coimbatore, Chennai, Kolkata, Mumbai, Bhubaneswar, Indore, Ahmedabad and Chandigarh, it said. 

"TechDays provides expert guidance on site and deep product exploration to fast track ideas to the app journey on Windows 8, Windows Phone 8, Office 2013, Office 365 and Windows Azure platforms," Microsoft India General Manager (DPE) Joseph Landes said.

What Is the Relationship Between ERP and CRM?

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) are both systems designed to automate and streamline processes in a business. While CRM is a system for managing the front-end of the business, ERP is involved in managing the back-end. The relationship between ERP and CRM is that these are two systems that need to work in conjunction with each other in order for the front and back office of the business to work effectively and efficiently.

Customer relationship management is the process of how a business manages its customer contacts. As the name implies, CRM focuses on how, when, where, and why the business interacts with current and potential customers. It includes the management of marketing activities to attract new customers and to communicate with existing customers. Customer accounts, managing customer activities, and providing customer support are the other primary areas covered under this process.

Enterprise resource planning is a system that manages how the business is managed and operated, so it deals with the business functions of the company. Some of the processes that fall under ERP are customer service, managing inventory, planning for the production of the goods and services that the business sells, tracking orders, and purchasing supplies for the business to operate. ERP focuses on automating the processes of the project management, distribution, financial, sales, and manufacturing areas of small- to medium-sized businesses.

Accessing Your Database Remotely Via SSHTunnel

Accessing Your Database Remotely Via SSHTunnel Sounds good.Now Without wasting your much time lets go.As Your Know Our database instance is not directly accessible from outside the environment. This is a good thing because a database cannot reliably maintain the security and patch levels like SSH can. However, it means that to access your database from an external database tool, such as pgAdmin, MySQL Query Browser, or SQLyog, you need to create an SSH tunnel to your database host/instance.

For example, you want to run pgAdmin or MySQL Query Browser on your laptop and you want to use this tool to examine your application database: You create an SSH tunnel from your laptop (the local) to your database instance (the remote) on Engine Yard Cloud.

You can also use SSH tunnels to set up offsite replication.

About SSH tunnels

An SSH tunnel links a port on your local machine to a port on a remote host. When these ports are linked, anything communicated to the local port is passed through SSH to the remote port; likewise, any communication to the remote port is passed back through SSH to the local port. The added benefit of this setup is that the communications between your local machine and the remote host is encrypted by the SSH connection.

Create the SSH tunnel manually

The syntax for creating the SSH tunnel is ssh -L [local port]:[database host]:[remote port] \
[username]@[remote host]

• [local port] The local port your database tool connects to.
  If you have a MySQL installation on your local machine, it runs on port 3306 by default; therefore, don’t use 3306 for the local port. For example, use 3307 instead.
  If you have a PostgreSQL installation on your local machine, it runs on port 5432 by default; therefore, don’t use 5432 for the local port. For example, use 5433 instead.
• [database host] The hostname or IP address of the database instance that you are tunneling to. If the [remote host] is the database instance you will want to set this to 127.0.0.1 (so it refers to itself). If you used an application instance as [remote host] then you can use the value of “host:” from your database.yml instead.
• [remote port] The port that your remote database listens for connections on.
  For MySQL databases, this is 3306 by default.
  For PostgreSQL database, this is 5432 by default.
• [username] the user for the database instance. The default user for the Engine Yard Cloud database is deploy.
• [remote host] the remote instance your tunnel will connect to the database through. This can be the database instance itself, or any instance within the database environment.

The tunneling command opens an SSH session with the [remote host] specified. The tunnel will work as long as that SSH session is active. If the session window is consuming valuable workspace we recommend minimizing it as running tunnels in the background can lead to multiple tunnels and port conflicts.

To create and test the SSH tunnel for a MySQL database

1. In a terminal window on your local machine, type:

   ssh -L 3307:ec2-172-16-139-19.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:3306 \
   deploy@ec2-174-129-17-196.compute-1.amazonaws.com

   where
   3307 is the local port,
   ec2-172-16-139-19.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com is the database host,
   3306 is the listening port,
   deploy is the database username, and
   ec2-174-129-17-196.compute-1.amazonaws.com is the remote host.
2. Before connecting the external database tool such as MySQL Query Browser or SQLyog, test the connection with a simple tool such as the database console, mysql.
   (Your tunnel needs to be running for this test.)Type

   mysql -udeploy -p -P 3307 -h 127.0.0.1

   where
   deploy is the database username on the remote host and
   3307 is the local port.
   You are prompted for your database password.
   Note: for the -h argument, it is necessary to use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost.

To create and test the SSH tunnel for a PostgreSQL database

1. In a terminal window on your local machine, type

   ssh -L 5433:ec2-172-16-139-19.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:5432 \
   deploy@ec2-174-129-17-196.compute-1.amazonaws.com

   where
   5433 is the local port,
   ec2-172-16-139-19.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com is the database host,
   5432 is the listening port,
   deploy is the database username, and
   ec2-174-129-17-196.compute-1.amazonaws.com is the remote host.
2. Before connecting the external database tool such as pgAdmin, test the connection with a simple tool such as the database console psql.
   (Your tunnel needs to be running for this test.)Type

   psql -Udeploy -d myapp -p 5433 -h 127.0.0.1

   where
   deploy is the database username on the remote host and
   5433 is the local port.
   You are prompted for your database password,

Google acquires an infrastructure startup Talaria. Will it help Google crush AWS?

Google has acquired a company that will help it run more software on fewer machines — a big deal for a company that has something in the neighborhood of one million servers. Talaria confirmed on its web site Friday that it was purchased by Google and that its software will become part of its Google Cloud team.
Talaria is mum about what it does on its current website, but on a cached version from March 9 it says the company is offering developers the use of “easy” programming languages such as Python or Ruby, while making them more efficient, like a compiled language is. The end result is today’s developers can code in the languages they love and use Talaria’s application server to somehow make that language more efficient.
From the cached version of the website:
At Talaria, we’re building a new, dynamic web application server with a JIT-based runtime at its heart. Today, it supports PHP and runs real-world applications like WordPress and Drupal. Talaria’s application server lets you handle more users with fewer boxes, without changing a line of code. Instead of worrying about your server bill, you can get back to building your app.
Facebook has done something that looks similar when it introduced Hip Hop as a way to make its existing PHP code more efficient. HipHop for PHP is a source code transformer that programmatically transforms PHP into highly optimized C++ and then uses g++ to compile it. The social network developed Hip Hop to boost the performance of Facebook applications while also lowering hardware costs.
If Talaria is doing something along these lines, this would help Google in two ways. It would enable Google to deliver a platform for developers that lets developers use their preferred languages, while giving the apps hosted on the Google cloud apps a performance advantage. But it would also help Google by letting it run those apps on fewer machines.
That would help Google lower the costs of operating and running machines, which could give it a leg up in its brutal price war with Amazon Web Services.

Javascript file hints at possible Google Play News feature

The folks over at Android Police did some sleuthing and discovered some surprising tidbits within a Javascript file on Google Play’s website. According to information found within the file, Google is prepping a new feature called “Google Play News,” with various sentences scattered within it indicating that it will offer newspapers in the same way Play already offers magazines and other content.
What kind of information is in the Javascript? Says Android Police, they dug out these phrase: “To read Google Play News, you must have a supported Android phone or tablet.” “Please sign in to get this News edition.” “Please sign in to purchase this News Issue.” “Please sign in to purchase this News Edition Subscription.” “Subscribing you to this news edition…” “You have subscribed to this news edition. It is now available on your device.”
As you can see, there is mention of both subscriptions and issues, indicating that users will be able to either subscribe to a specific newspaper, or to purchase individual issues of one or more papers. There is also a reference to news “Editions,” which are yet unspecified, so we’ll have to wait and see what they mean by that.
Another interesting tidbit was found in a CSS file, which shows that the color yellow will be assigned to the not-yet-available news section in the same way the music, movies, magazines, and such all have their own color assignments. This seems to further confirm the information found in the Javascript file. Aside from this, Google is redirecting to its Magazine pages for news links, and is using Magazine images as placeholders.

Kaspersky Lab identifies malware MiniDuke

Kaspersky Lab's team of experts recently published a new research report that analyzed a series of security incidents involving the use of the recently discovered PDF exploit in Adobe Reader (CVE-2013-6040) and a new, highly customized malicious programme known as MiniDuke. The MiniDuke backdoor was used to attack multiple government entities and institutions worldwide during the past week, said the lab's press release. Kaspersky Lab's experts, in partnership with CrySys Lab, analyzed the attacks in detail and published their findings. 

MiniDuke's highly customized backdoor was written in assembler and is very small in size, being only 20kb. "The combination of experienced old school malware writers using newly discovered exploits and clever social engineering to compromise high profile targets is extremely dangerous," said the statement issued by the lab. 

It said that the MiniDuke attackers are still active at this time and have created malware as recently as February 20. To compromise victims, the attackers used extremely effective social engineering techniques, which involved sending malicious PDF documents to their targets. 

Once the system is exploited, a very small downloader is dropped onto the victim's disc that's only 20kb in size. This downloader is unique per system and contains a customized backdoor written in Assembler. When loaded at system boot, the downloader uses a set of mathematical calculations to determine the computer's unique fingerprint, and in turn uses this data to uniquely encrypt its communications later. It is also programmed to avoid analysis by a hardcoded set of tools in certain environments like VMware. If it finds any of these indicators, it will run idle in the environment instead of moving to another stage and exposing more of its functionality by decrypting itself further; this indicates the malware writers know exactly what antivirus and IT security professionals are doing in order to analyze and identify malware.

Who Should Go With iPage Hosting

Now, doesn’t matter what I think about iPage. Question is: Is iPage right for you? Given that there are both pros and cons; negative and positive reviews on the Internet; should you still go with iPage hosting?

The decision is yours to be made.

iPage is truly the Best Budget Hosting in my book. You can’t find any web host offering the same features (and server performance) at this low price. And, as for the negative reviews, well iPage allows customers to cancel their account anytime they want and refund back the remaining fees – so what is there to worry? If you are searching for a cheap, reliable web host; and are considering on iPage – then just go for it! 

Host your Web site with iPage!

iPage Hosting – Benefits

iPage Hosting – Benefits

• Extremely Cheap As mentioned above, if you are searching for the Best Budget Web Hosting, iPage will be surely come into your radar. Fact is, iPage is extremely cheap. And not that only it is cheap; it’s also reputable and reliable. So if you want a good host at an affordable price, iPage hosting is a go!
• Anytime Money Back Guarantee Another good thing about iPage is its protective customer policy. Most hosting companies offer money back guarantees for the first 30 to 45 days; but not iPage. All iPage customers are protected by its Anytime Money Back Guarantee. Under this policy, iPage customers get to claim for a pro-rated refund after the first 30 days trial period. In other words, iPage has to work very hard to win business as it is easy for customers to leave the host.
• User Friendly And Extremely Smooth Ordering Process iPage is perhaps the most newbie-friendly web host. I have purchased iPage twice in the past and both processes were nothing but pleasure. The account setup process was idiot-proof and the ordering process was very smooth. My hosting accounts were ready minutes after payment.
• Eco-Friendly Hosting According to iPage official website, its hosting operation is fully powered by renewable energy.

 iPage Hosting – Drawbacks

• Lack Of Server Upgrade Option Like WebHostingHub, Hostmonster, BlueHost, and many other budget hosting providers; iPage offers nothing but shared hosting services. Although the Essential Hosting Plan is often more than enough for startup websites, users who wish to go VPS or dedicated servers will have to go elsewhere (recommendation: check out WP Engine and Hostgator instead).
• Expensive Renewal Fees Many iPage users were not aware that the price $3.50/mo is actually promotional price that only available for first time customers. For iPage renewals, the cost is relative higher – $6.99/$7.99/$8.99 monthly for 36/24/12 months term – this often sparks some complaints among iPage customers. However, it’s worth pointing out that the renewal prices are actually more or less the same with what other hosting companies are charging.

iPage Hosting Review

The domain ‘iPage.com’ has been around for more than 10 years but it was not very well known until its recent re-launch in October 2009. Today, iPage stands as one of the greatest successes in hosting industry -The brand took off in late 2009 and went extremely popular in just two short years, ranking top on most of the hosting review sites.

In case you are not aware, iPage is owned and managed by a group of experienced management team – the Endurance International Group (EIG). The EIG has been around for more than 15 years and their hosting platform is currently holding nearly 2 million domain names. The group also owns some other big names in hosting industry, including GoDaddy, FatCow, BlueHost, HostMonster, JustHost, PowWeb, EasyCGI, StartLogic, Dot5Hosting, VPS Link, etc etc. I am not very sure about exact numbers but I believe EIG is one of the biggest web hosting/domain company on earth.

Anyway, who owns the company isn’t that much of our concern.
