BlackBerry has begun to focus on cloud computing to improve its product offering to the public. BlackBerry apps will be managed through the cloud via the redesigned BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES). With the new strategy, BES will support multiple corporations through one server. Each corporation will have its own segment. The cloud-based BES will feature deployment options to give users access to applications faster. A web-based console will manage BlackBerry smartphones through the cloud environment. Through the cloud, authorized individuals may reset passwords, delete emails or review device details. BlackBerry Protect may also be monitored through the cloud. Features such as backup, restore, wipe, device lock and messaging may be monitored through cloud-based application. BlackBerry RIM is focused on providing mobile solutions that are scalable, secure, efficient and reliable. The company is also creating an intuitive interface that the general public can easily navigate. Productivity is improved in the work place with

Giving a reason to fight Computing can have a significant impact on the development of international crises. Not a day passes these days without some news about a conflict erupting in any given number of problematic areas in the world. Unfortunately there are times it appears to have a very biased mainstream media that never reports what happens. Biased media only report what they would like us to hear depending on who runs which empire. The irksome tabloid who is literally running the age-old main stream print media is probably a prime example of how people are not receiving actual news but the political prejudices of media magnates. These are serious matters because they can affect the response of the local community to both the conflict and the attempts to diffuse the conflict. Everyone knows about the Middle East conflict. Opinion has been sharply divided and you can be convinced either way

Linking the concepts to its merits The first thing that comes to mind when you have understood the concept of cloud computing is whether it is beneficial to your organization. If you are an individual then you might consider whether there is a route through which you can access the service. In this article I will try to link the known characteristics of cloud computing to the merits that we have discussed in my previous articles. The merits will affect each organization in a unique way so it is not desirable to have a homogenous analysis. The framework within which we have to analyze cloud computing has to bear witness to the fact that it is a valuable resource that is open to varied use by different organizations. Key characteristics and their advantages The inter connectivity of computer servers is the first element of that characterizes cloud computing. This characteristic can enable

You will be known by your characteristics In order to truly understand the concept of cloud computing, you need to know some of the basic characteristics that it possesses. This is not so different from other computing innovations in as much as they concentrate on the characterization of the functionality of the technology rather than a subjective view of how effective they might be. There is a very convincing argument to the effect that it is not really necessary to know all the different perspectives on cloud computing in order to understand the system. However I still believe that if you have the basic knowledge of the things that are supposed to be delivered by cloud computing, then you will be in a very good position to manage the project effectively. As we all know effectiveness is the key element of information technology and once you lose that, you might

Understanding the Differences ...

A distinction that is too fine for many people I have to admit that I have never bothered to think about the distinction between cloud computing and web hosting. I only decided to look at this issue when I was requested to do some research on the two topics. For most people who are not particularly interested in the developments of Information Technology, the distinction can challenge their concentration. However there is a distinction and it might be important to grasp this distinction. In this article I will attempt to describe some of the crucial differences between these two concepts, trying to explain what are cloud computing and hosting in layman terms. I am sure that there are many technological wizards who will be dying to correct me about these differences but I would respond to the effect that this is the beginning rather that the end. It is not

Deciding the merits and demerits of cloud computing The relative popularity of the cloud computing business model deserves a debate. It is always easy to wax lyrical about the merits of a new technological innovation without looking at some of the disadvantages that might accrue as a result of that innovation. When you look at the specific example of the cloud computing, the dangers of a biased view become apparent. For an organization to make an effective decision about whether to implement cloud computing, they will need to have a vast array of information resources that point them towards a balanced view of the technology. If a picture that is too rosy is painted, then it is likely that the organization will not be ready for some of the problems when they arise. This article aims to balance those two sides so that company executives can make an informed decision. The

Getting a slice of the technological cake Cloud computing is a shared resource and can be a source of various winning formulas for any organization. You might be one of those business people who believe that technological advancement is only for those companies that have technical expertise in the area. This is the wrong perception that has held up many businesses from achieving their full potential in the modern business world.  It is the responsibility of the managing director to search out all these innovations and ensure that the company is at the forefront of cloud computing. After all that is one of the key tasks for the senior executive. The connectivity and inter business trends that characterize cloud computing are crucial to the development of a modern economy. The company that outsources information technology will be receiving a valuable service as well as reducing its own costs. These costs can then

Improvising the tools that enable you to access cloud computing The application development aspect of your cloud computing initiative will be a crucial activity for your business. Without the software you might as well give up on trying to implement cloud computing because it is the software that drives most of the activities. When an organization decides to implement cloud computing, they remove the local staff involvement in the information technology systems. If you are going to get rid of the influence of your staff, you need to ensure that the software applications that you are going to use are virtually infallible or close to it. This is why there is such importance placed on the application development for cloud computing. The application development should follow the same principles that are used when you are managing other IT projects. For example there has to be extensive consultation with the business units which

Virtualization When we talk of virtualization in computing, the implication will be that we are somehow using the internet to carry out activities that were previously done offline. It means that whoever is running the organization has decided that they would like to take control of the activities of that activity by going online. Virtualization therefore always associates with technological development. In computing terms, the idea of virtualization is to allow for a multiplicity of access points from a single outlet. The best illustration is that of a web of interrelated personal computers that can each be accessed from whatever remote location. One of the crucial elements of virtualization is that there is an element of control because the central command unit will be able to supervise the activities of outpost computers. This element is one which delights managers but causes some concern from civil liberties groups. Cloud computing Cloud computing utilized the
