#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#* New On-Demand Web Content from August 2010

Nothing exciting :-|

#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#* Webcasts of interest showing at a desktop near you in September 2010

Wednesday, September 15, 2010: Business Insights Webcast: The New Unified Communications with OCS 2007 R2, Exchange 2010, and Office 2010 (Level 100)
Technology has brought us a very long way in terms of how we communicate in the business world. E-mail, telephones, instant messaging, and conference calling make it possible for us to do things today that were unthinkable twenty years ago. But as these technologies have evolved, they have done so independently, creating communications silos. Attend this webcast to learn how Unified Communications (UC) technologies in Microsoft Office Communications Server (OCS) 2007, Microsoft Exchange 2010, and Microsoft Office 2010 integrate all of the ways we contact each other in a single environment, using a single identity and presence that spans phones, workstations, and other devices. We showcase the Microsoft UC innovations you can take advantage of to provide more effective and streamlined communications for end users.

Tuesday, September 15, 2010: TechNet Webcast: Information About Microsoft September Security Bulletins (Level 200)

https://msevents.microsoft.com/CUI/WebCastEventDetails.aspx?culture=en-US&EventID=1032454433

Wednesday, September 22, 2010: TechNet Webcast: Windows PowerShell Basics for IT Professionals (Level 200)
This one-hour webcast is geared towards IT professionals who do not have a strong coding or scripting background. We help you to understand the basics of Windows PowerShell, including parsing, piping, getting help, using variables and operators, and flow control. By the end of this session, you should understand enough to create simple commands and be comfortable enough to explore Windows PowerShell on your own.

Headhunter by Ashley Gardiner .. Part 2

So for the odd person that read my blog (and I know who you are) if you have a kindle or a kindle app, and work in the IT Industry you have to read this book.

I Blogged earlier about his .. Carpe Diem- Flaphead.com - Headhunter by Ashley Gardiner

My wife is giving me so much grief, as I just cant put my iPad down, this book has me gripped.

I don't know who Ashley Gardiner (but if you google “Ashley Gardiner” I’m the second hit :-) and the first hit is for an WAirport Administrator at Pret A Manger”, whereas the if you google “Ashley Gardiner head hunter” you get me ;-) first and then amazon) .. but this book just rocks .. I even feel like cheating and going to the last chapter to see what happens, but I know that is wrong ;-)

Why isn’t this book in paper back? I have to keep charging my iPad to read it :-|

Will let you know how it ends … maybe :-D

Intel to Acquire McAfee

#Intel #McAfee

No way!?

Source: http://newsroom.intel.com/community/intel_newsroom/blog/2010/08/19/intel-to-acquire-mcafee

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 19, 2010 – Intel Corporation has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire McAfee, Inc., through the purchase of all of the company’s common stock at $48 per share in cash, for approximately $7.68 billion. Both boards of directors have unanimously approved the deal, which is expected to close after McAfee shareholder approval, regulatory clearances and other customary conditions specified in the agreement.

The acquisition reflects that security is now a fundamental component of online computing. Today’s security approach does not fully address the billions of new Internet-ready devices connecting, including mobile and wireless devices, TVs, cars, medical devices and ATM machines as well as the accompanying surge in cyber threats. Providing protection to a diverse online world requires a fundamentally new approach involving software, hardware and services.


http://www.mcafee.com/us/about/intel_mcafee.html

Today McAfee agreed to be acquired by Intel Corporation.  Obviously this is big news for McAfee, big news for Intel Corporation, big news for our combined customers, and big news for both the security industry and the future of the Internet. It’s the company’s common belief that security is a fundamental component of modern computing, and the acquisition reflects its increasing relevance in a completely connected world.  The number of connected devices is expected to grow from 1 billion to 50 billion by 2020.  This explosive growth of Internet and IP-enabled devices (e.g. Internet enabled TV, IP addressable cars, ATM machines, medical devices) is fundamentally reshaping communication, collaboration and commerce opportunities for individuals, businesses and governments around the world.

Unfortunately, cyber-criminals and cyber-terrorists are misusing the Internet’s open and any-to-any communication architecture for malicious purposes, leaving many users at risk and the future of the Internet as we know it in question.  Cybercrime costs over 1 trillion dollars to society, the identity of 100s’ of millions of individuals have already been compromised and dozens of governments around the globe have already been targets of cyberwarfare.

Apps from last week

I just wanted to share with the 4 app I downloaded last for my iPhone and iPad.

First off for my iPhone was Waze (http://world.waze.com/).  It’s a basically Free SatNav, but what is great is that it uses Crowdsourcing for travel information.

Next is VoucherCloud (http://www.vouchercloud.com/)  The guy in my local corner shop showed me this.  As it suggests you get discount vouchers on you iPhone.  It works really well.

I downloaded this on my iPhone but it’s better on the iPad.  For the plane spotter in me, its Flight Radar (http://www.flightradar24.com/).  Its bloody amazing now many planes are in the air at one time, and this app and website lets you trackem.

and finally the programmer in me found iPowershell from the boys at Sapien (http://www.primaltools.com/downloads/communitytools/).  It basically contains full descriptions of each and every core PowerShell Version 1 cmdlet, their syntax, parameters and examples of proper usage. Its a very cool reference app and it’s FREE

Lets see what Apps this week brings…

Headhunter by Ashley Gardiner

So I downloaded Amazon #Kindle to my #iPad, and I have my first book Headhunter by Ashley Gardiner (http://www.amazon.com/Headhunter-ebook/dp/B003TO5HJI/ref=pd_rhf_p_t_1)

Seeing as I was working in IT when all the banking issue happened I thought it might be a good read.  Will let you know how I get on .. Check it out ..

Darren Halford and his friends are enduring mediocre lives in the rat race, doing jobs they hate in the hope that one day they will be rewarded with a comfortable retirement.

He watches helplessly as the banking system collapses, making him just one of millions of ordinary citizens who have seen a bright financial future destroyed by the recklessness of bankers. Already worn down by the daily grind, Darren realises that their greed and stupidity have added more than two thousand commutes and ten years to his working life and eliminated any hopes of the comfortable retirement he had planned for and dreamed of.
Denied the satisfaction of seeing the villains punished and enraged by the contrasting fortunes of the perpetrators and victims, Darren takes matters into his own hands. He realises that his position as an IT engineer at a bank affords particular opportunities to track, manipulate then kill the financial Gods who thought they were immune to consequence.

In the course of inflicting vigilante justice Darren has to reconcile himself to the reality that he is no more immune to consequence than he has made his victims. He turns to his friends in the hope that they can save him from a premature and violent death.

But, erm I cant get it to work .. The help examples seem to be is wrong too as SIPClient isn’t a valid –Mode and –OCSFEAddress doesnt exist either .. Will keep trying and report back once I can work out the syntax …

Anyone got any bright ideas?

The subject of this meeting is Exchange backup and recovery and we have Microsoft’s Anthony Tyler talking about System Centre Data Protection Manager’s take on backing up exchange and Kroll Ontrack’s offering for recovery.

BES 5.0 SP2: Blackberry User #Exchange 2010 IOPS now equal to an Outlook Client

#Exchange2010

Interesting, from WES 2010 session ‘WA25: Best Practices in Deploying Microsoft® Exchange for BlackBerry’ jointly presented by RIM and Microsoft Jeff Mealiffe (Sr. Development Lead, Scalability & Capacity Planning) it says:

image

  • Database IOPS per user is equivalent to a Microsoft® Outlook® client, not 5x and not 3x
  • Our past data represented the worst case scenario
    • Workload assumes both BlackBerry and Microsoft Outlook clients active
    • 100% BlackBerry enabled users
    • High density of BlackBerry users on a single storage group
  • Our focus in the past has also been on providing a single impact number
    • Database I/O more expensive and needs to be our focus (random I/O)
    • ransaction log I/O gets optimized well by disk infrastructure (increase is not as relevant – sequential I/O)
image
  • Dual clients per user active (Outlook and BlackBerry )
    • DB IOPS increase by 1.85x for BlackBerry enabled users only
    • DB IOPS increase by 1.7x for BlackBerry enabled users only (5.0.2
      optimizations)
    • DB IOPS with optimization equivalent to an outlook client
  • Truly mobile users (only BlackBerry client)
    • DB IOPS equivalent to an Outlook client

image

BES 5.0 SP2 DB IOPS increase by only 1.7x with Exchange 2010 compared with 2.16x on Exchange 2007 with BES 5.01

Mail server role

  • Mail server CPU recommendation is about 1.4 -1.5x MCycles/mailbox recommended by Microsoft
  • Memory, same as what is recommended by MS for outlook users/clients

CAS Server role

  • CPU core recommendation is inline with 4:3 ratio recommend by Microsoft for CAS:Mail server
  • NSPI connection count needs to be increased to 1 per BlackBerry smart phone – default is 50 (too low)
  • Throttling needs to be disabled for the service account used for the BlackBerry Enterprise Server
