In many cases, you can access your digital information from almost any device that is able to access the internet. You can send and share files between multiple computers, users, and devices. However, there are a few drawbacks to everything being digital.&lt;br /&gt;
If you are like most people today, you rarely print out every document that is sent your way. This means that your only existing copy is on your computer. So, if your computer crashes, is destroyed, or stolen, unless you have taken the proper precautions, the files are gone forever.&lt;br /&gt;
But let&#39;s say that you did print off every file and document that was sent to you. Then you&#39;re safe, right? Wrong. Fires, flood, mildew, and more can happen to even physical documents. There really is only one way to make sure that your important files and documents are kept safe: backing them up.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Types of Backup&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Whether you realize it or not, you probably know of at least one way to backup files. Most of us remember the old floppy disk. A backup method, very similar to the floppy disk, still exists today. These types of backup come in CDs or flash drives. And, while they can be an effective means of storing your important information, you have to realize that you are still at risk for losing the files. The very same incidents that can happen to physical documents can happen to these storage devices.&lt;br /&gt;
Online backup is different. Instead of using a physical item to store your important pictures, documents, and files, you store your information online. With an online backup service provider, your files and documents are stored at a remote location. The files are encrypted so that no one else can access them without your code, access to your files will be denied. Some providers even double encrypt your information, increasing the security.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;How Online Backup Works&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Essentially, you choose an online backup service provider that suits your needs. You choose whether or not you want your computer to perform a backup on scheduled days, which is the recommended method. However, you can send files and documents over individually, if you don&#39;t receive or store information regularly.&lt;br /&gt;
If your computer is damaged, stolen, or lost, there are no worries. Since your information is on a remote server, all you have to do is access your information from the server with your code. You can then download the files to your new computer, having the most up-to-date information that you sent.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Why Online Backup is So Popular&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The biggest reason that online backup has become so popular is because you never have to worry about whether or not your information is safe. It can never be stolen. It cannot be damaged or lost. Even if the remote site experiences a disaster, most backup service providers have a secondary site, just in case.&lt;br /&gt;
However, there are other reasons that many have turned to online backup. It is both affordable and convenient. Unlike a disk storage system, you never have to remember to perform a backup. You simply set a schedule up and your computer performs the backup automatically. You can do this as often as daily or as little as you want, depending on your special needs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Finding the Right Online Backup Service Provider&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Since online backup has become so popular amongst computer users, more and more online backup service providers have surfaced over the years. Now, there are just too many to count. This can make choosing one seem like an impossible task. And, while you could try to compile a list of different providers and the specifics of their services, you may not even know what you are looking for or where to begin.&lt;br /&gt;
Your best bet may be to consult one of several online backup review sites. These sites summarize and compare the various backup providers all in one place. They have taken the time to do the work of comparing backup services for you. They have selected the top online backup service providers and compared them, side-by-side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Learning How to Decide Which Online Backup Service Provider is Right for You&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Even with all of the information standing side-by-side, you still may not know exactly what you are looking for, especially if you have never heard of online backup services. Everything may sound the same or you may not understand the benefits of each service provided by the individual companies. The experts at Remoteonlinebackup.net do more than just review the different online backup service providers and list their information. They take the time to explain the decision process. They help you recognize which factors are important when choosing an online backup service provider.&lt;br /&gt;
Factors like cost, ease of recovery, program specifications, ease of recovery, ease of use, and security should all be considered. You&#39;ll also need to consider your own needs and how to determine your backup schedule.&lt;br /&gt;

He recommends using a Carbonite offer code to save 10% off the cost of service.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smartcomputerlab.blogspot.com/feeds/946627102704201630/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://smartcomputerlab.blogspot.com/2011/08/deciding-if-online-backup-service-is.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5208280164044045752/posts/default/946627102704201630'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5208280164044045752/posts/default/946627102704201630'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smartcomputerlab.blogspot.com/2011/08/deciding-if-online-backup-service-is.html' title='Deciding If an Online Backup Service Is Right for You'/><author><name>Anonymous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11205734467436825346</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208280164044045752.post-8113042625293512120</id><published>2011-08-30T10:52:00.005+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-30T10:52:59.805+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Online"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Recovery"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Software"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Tools"/><title type='text'>Lost Data Recovery?

Businesses demand massive amounts of data and communication recording which are crucial for company operations and processes. This is needed to avoid system problems. However, expertise is needed in this matter. SQL server offers three full and simple recovery methods. Wise choice on the best method to use that will fit the needs of any business is required. How does one identify the right backup method?&lt;br /&gt;
The best way is look for one that backs up MS SQL is with the aid of Microsoft API. More advanced than ordinary database backup, this allows for very accurate backup of data-views, stored procedures and indexes and stored user data. Before making a software purchase, the right software that complies with the necessary requirements must be selected. This should backup the MS SQL server version that the company is currently using.&lt;br /&gt;
The software should also be able to backup MS SQL without the need to stop its services to allow for continuous business flow. MS SQL operations must continue to assure continuous income. It must be noted that this software that requires stoppage of services could lead to income loss which must be avoided. Optimal program features must include data compression, encryption, scheduler, automatic MS SQL recovery, running MS SQL backup in Windows service mode, and tools for data recording in different types of storage media such as HD, DVD and Blu-Ray.&lt;br /&gt;
Backup Exec 2010 offers top practices for Microsoft SQL Server. Backing up the whole server, excluding all database files from anti-virus scan, running consistency checks before or after backup and after every SQL restore are some of these best practices. Ask for quotes from the different suppliers of SQL Backup to enjoy the best backup quality at the lowest price. An optimal MS SQL service backup program is a must especially for small companies that have just started running their server on their own.&lt;br /&gt;
Company data should be preserved and protected at all costs, and making use of the best software is the greatest means to achieve this. One that assures ease of usage, simplifies restoring of data and stores backups in remote locations is the best tool. Whatever happens in the office location be it a storm, fire, water damage, theft or virus attack, this will give the best protection. In the end, lawsuits, customer dissatisfaction, employee grievances will be avoided.&lt;br /&gt;

Without it, they simply cannot provide an effective service. In today&#39;s world, we are becoming more and more data-reliant, and businesses need to keep pace with this. So, how can businesses improve their data sharing and storage to meet the needs of modern business?&lt;br /&gt;
The answer seems to be cloud computing. Standard IT infrastructure in most businesses involves the use of a server connected to multiple clients, with applications and software bought and licensed for all the users in the network. This works well, but it has a few major drawbacks. Firstly, there is often costly hardware and software to be maintained, taking up staff time and money. It can also be inflexible, as to access files saved on the network, users need to be able to access it directly. It can also overload if too many users try to access the same application at once.&lt;br /&gt;
Many of these problems can be overcome by using cloud services instead. Cloud services aren&#39;t perfect, but they do help to solve many of the issues that using more traditional methods of data storage can present. Cloud services are inherently flexible, giving users the freedom to access data on the move, from laptops and mobile devices, or from their home PCs, easily. They allow easy sharing of data, which helps staff co-operate and can increase productivity.&lt;br /&gt;
To make the most of cloud services and their ability to improve data storage, businesses should tread carefully initially. There are some ongoing security concerns about many cloud services. They may be especially vulnerable to attack, and data protection laws have not yet kept up with the new technology. However, the potential is huge - so it&#39;s certainly worth dipping a toe in. A wide variety of different types of cloud applications are available from various suppliers, so it really is just a case of seeing what is available and trying things out. Eventually, businesses could move to an entirely cloud-based network, but they don&#39;t need to do so immediately. Some businesses could take advantage of cloud software for particular functions. For example, a cloud-based customer relationship management system helps sales staff communicate faster and more efficiently. A cloud based accounting system helps businesses ensure that all accounts are up to date and that they are always working from the same, correct, information. Across the board, cloud data storage can help businesses become more efficient and responsive.&lt;br /&gt;

The box itself may say something like Buffalo DriveStation, Seagate BlackArmor, or Western Digital ShareSpace, but in any case, it is often a RAID-5 storage device that is trusted with holding the network&#39;s data.&lt;br /&gt;
Most RAID devices were designed and built for data reliability. RAID stands for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks (or later Independent Disks). And the technology, which was developed at the University of California, Berkeley, allows enough redundancy of the data that if one hard drive in the system fails, the information it contained can be reconstructed from the remaining hard drives.&lt;br /&gt;
RAID-5 devices not only offer this redundant data reliability, they spread the data in such a way that it can be read and used faster. In terms of hard drive technology, they are high performance machines, offering both greater speed and greater resistance to data loss.&lt;br /&gt;
But they have their limits. The cases that come to data recovery labs widely varied, but for the sake of example, let&#39;s say the read/write heads of one of the drives in a RAID-5 device can no longer detect the magnetic rails that would guide them along the tracks of data, so they instead click back and forth uselessly. Because of the clever redundancy built into the device, the machine can keep limping along, running in a degraded state as it reconstructs the failed drive&#39;s data by logical analysis of the remaining drives. Perhaps some people notice that things aren&#39;t as quick as before, but this situation persists for months until a second drive burns out the chip that controls its drive motor.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, the IT person in charge of the network is in a panic, since none of the data is accessible. In the repair efforts that ensue, a new hard drive is inserted into the device, a remaining drive is reformatted, and all the hard drives have been taken out of the device and put back in the wrong order. Meanwhile, a whole organization&#39;s most important data is inaccessible. It&#39;s a horrible situation.&lt;br /&gt;
At this point no one, obviously, wants to hear about what would have been the best solution - which is prevention by automatic remote data backup. So it&#39;s off to the recovery lab in the desperate hope that what was lost can be recovered.&lt;br /&gt;
If you are in the cold-sweat inducing stages of data loss on your RAID-5 systems, there is some useful advice, provided it&#39;s still timely. First, if your data is not accessible, you should never rebuild the array; this will not repair anything. It will take the current state of affairs and make it permanent. Another common mistake is to force drives back online after an observation that only one of three drives or two of four drives are up. The RAID controller took these drives offline for a reason. They&#39;re probably failed drives. When you force these drives online, data on the healthy drives likely will be corrupted. Worse, file system repair utilities will start seeing this mess and will start &quot;repairing&quot; all recent data. The effect is that the most critical data on the healthy drives will be gone. The best thing to do when your RAID-5 fails is to back out of that dim room with the blinking lights and the colorful cables and call a recovery lab.&lt;br /&gt;
At the few top data recover labs in the country, engineers and computer scientists have pioneered techniques for RAID recovery cases. Successful RAID-5 recoveries depend on reassembling the logical structure of the file system, which is necessary to get meaningful data back from a failed RAID device.&lt;br /&gt;
In the example above, after replacing the damaged read/write heads and calibrating them to read the platters, they would create full binary copies of all the drives in the system. They would look at each drive independently with a binary hex editor, which shows where the 1s and 0s lie, to determine how the data was being divided or striped among the drives and in what order. Each RAID controller is different, and it&#39;s a logic puzzle to determine how the data was being handled and what the file structure was before the system failed.&lt;br /&gt;
It would be crucial to determine which drive failed first. As mentioned earlier, RAID systems depend on a logic calculation to store their redundant data. It&#39;s called an &quot;exclusively or&quot; binary operator. You might intuitively expect that if you had four disks full of data that you&#39;d need another four disks to have a redundant copy. But the &quot;exclusively or&quot; binary operator is a clever way to allow four disks to have their data redundantly stored on one disk. But to reconstruct data using this operator, it&#39;s necessary to understand in what order the disks failed and exactly how data was being written to them.&lt;br /&gt;
Only after all this analysis, and a correct diagnosis on the drive failure order, could data recovery experts begin to write the code that would rebuild this data system. They would then test their hypothesis by checking the integrity of a large recent file and proceed to reassemble all the pieces in the puzzle into one contiguous physical volume.&lt;br /&gt;
RAID-5 systems have a lot of appeal: speed, reliability and ease of use. Many organizations trust them to hold up the entire network&#39;s data without employing an automatic remote backup system. That puts a great deal of faith in the idea that your RAID-5 device will never fail. If it does, don&#39;t let panic complicate matters - there is good reason to hope for a successful RAID-5 data recovery with the right data recovery lab.&lt;br /&gt;

Both small and large-scale businesses are able to use cloud computing to change the way they work, opting for a more flexible and cost-effective alternative online.&lt;br /&gt;
What Cloud Services are available?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Cloud files&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
Store documents and media files in the cloud to share with others or as a backup. Files and folders can be kept private or made public and shared instantly. Large files no longer need to be sent to a recipient, they can be shared online and the recipient chooses to view the document in the browser, or download it directly to their computer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Cloud server&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
A Cloud Server allows businesses to have root access to their server and run any program they want, without the restrictions placed on shared servers. A new server can be set up within minutes rather than having to wait for new equipment to arrive. When no longer needed, the server can be deleted and payment stopped.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Cloud Platform&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
Businesses can develop their own applications and services to run in the cloud, benefiting from the ability to get the product to market faster, and scale the product or service as demand changes.&lt;br /&gt;
The benefits of Cloud Computing&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Scalability&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
Businesses can adjust their requirements quickly and easily according to changing business needs, paying only for what they use.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Ease of access&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
Sharing files with employees, colleagues or customers in different locations can be done securely online. The files and documents can be accessed via a computer, mobile phones, iPad etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Cost savings&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
Businesses do not need to invest in new equipment which becomes redundant when business volume decreases and staff costs are reduced. Furthermore, maintenance costs are eradicated having no internal hardware required in order to store and share data within a business.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Maintenance Free&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
The provider of the cloud services, not the business, is responsible for maintaining and upgrading equipment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Mobility&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
Employees can access information from anywhere, at any time of the day or night. Employers can offer more flexible working arrangements and telecommuting positions, or hire remote workers who are able to access the necessary files online.&lt;br /&gt;
The very nature of cloud computing provides a number of advantages so that it can be used exclusively, or in combination with existing, physical infrastructure. It gives end users more control with faster, more cost-effective solutions to their computing needs.&lt;br /&gt;

It is a form of backup, where data is copied on a series of drives so that when one fails, the data would not be lost as it could be accessed on the other drives. Originally, RAID stood for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks, where the data would be stored in cheap disks. However, the word Inexpensive was replaced with Independent to remove the impression that RAID was a cheap and therefore low-quality storage solution.&lt;br /&gt;
RAID data recovery is now used as an all-inclusive term that refers to computer data storage that use replication of data on multiple physical drives as a solution to data loss. These disks are in a RAID array, which is accessed by the operating system as one single disk.&lt;br /&gt;
There are two main types of damage that RAID data recovery seeks to rectify. The first is logical damage, where a problem such as a power outage cuts of a disk when data writing is midway. This will means that the pattern of data on the disk will not match the structure that is expected, thus causing problems when it comes to handling and even reading the disk. The solution in this case will involve software, where a program will formulate a way for the data to be arranged correctly.&lt;br /&gt;
The second type of damage is physical, where the disk is damaged on its surface. In such a case, RAID data recovery will attempt to replace the minimal amount of the disk surface so that the drive is readable. This method will mostly result in the loss of some of the data, but ultimately, it is meant to retrieve as much data as possible.&lt;br /&gt;
Alternatively, special programs can collect all the data which remains on the drive, including that which cannot be accessed by a standard operating system. After this the data is compiled into a disk image files that can be written to a new drive that is meant to be as close as possible to the original.&lt;br /&gt;
However, one big problem with the RAID data recovery system is that it works with the assumption that the drives will usually fail at effectively random times. This is not always true, and many times multiple drives will fail in quick succession in a RAID setup. This is especially so when the drives come from the same original production batch.&lt;br /&gt;
In addition, most people who use a RAID setup will tend not to have a rigorous backup as with drives that are not supported. This is because the costs of backing up the individual disks in a RAID setup can outweigh the savings of using RAID data recovery. This results in users depending solely on RAID Data Recovery in the event that enough disks are damaged to affect the entire system.&lt;br /&gt;
When you opt for a RAID data recovery service, ensure that you check the pricing structure so that you pick one that begins recovery after the price is agreed upon.&lt;br /&gt;

As we know that WordPress is one of the most used Content Management System (CMS), it is a main target for hackers. If your site gets lot of visitors and have many readers, then hackers will target your site and steal personal information. They may also delete all your database. So we need to take some security measures to prevent our WordPress blog from being hacked.&lt;br /&gt;
Below are some tips which you can use to secure your WordPress blog.&lt;br /&gt;
* Do regular Backups:&lt;br /&gt;
This is the most important tip of all. You must Backup your WordPress blog every week or two. There are many plugins in WordPress which can do the backup for you. In case, if your site gets hacked and the hacker removes all the files from your host. Then you may restore your WordPress blog easily.&lt;br /&gt;
* Change Passwords:&lt;br /&gt;
You need to change your WordPress blog&#39;s and Hosting account&#39;s Password every month or two. Choose a secure password which consists of numbers, symbols and capital letters.&lt;br /&gt;
* Keep your WordPress blog up to date:&lt;br /&gt;
As soon as a WordPress upgrade is released, take time to upgrade your blog because the new version may have some security fixes. Also keep your plugins up to date.&lt;br /&gt;
* Install Security Plugins:&lt;br /&gt;
At present, there are many plugins in WordPress which concern about your blog&#39;s security. I suggest using &quot;Login LockDown&quot;. This plugin adds some extra security to WordPress by restricting the rate at which failed logins can be re-attempted from a given IP range. So you don&#39;t need to worry about Password guessers.&lt;br /&gt;
* Password Protect your WP-Admin Folder:&lt;br /&gt;
Many hackers can easily hack your site if you don&#39;t apply Password to WP-Admin Folder because it is the main folder which contains top secret information of your blog&lt;br /&gt;
To make WP-Admin Folder password protected, follow the simple tutorial below.&lt;br /&gt;
* Login to your hosting&#39;s cpanel account. &lt;br /&gt;
* Scroll down to find the &quot;Security&quot; section. &lt;br /&gt;
* Click on &quot;Password Protect Directories&quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
* Click on the &quot;WP-Admin&quot; Folder name. &lt;br /&gt;
* Create a username and password and save the settings.&lt;br /&gt;
* Apply &quot;No Index&quot; to WP-Content-Plugins Folder:&lt;br /&gt;
You need to apply No Index to WP-Content-Plugins Folder to prevent the plugin files from being indexed.&lt;br /&gt;
To apply &quot;No Index&quot; to WP-Content-Plugins Folder, follow the simple tutorial below.&lt;br /&gt;
* Login to your hosting&#39;s cpanel account. &lt;br /&gt;
* Scroll to the bottom of the page to find the &quot;Advanced&quot; section. &lt;br /&gt;
* Click on &quot;Index Manager&quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
* Click on the icon beside &quot;WP-Content&quot; Folder name. Don&#39;t click on WP-Content Folder name directly because it will prevent Search Engines from indexing your content. &lt;br /&gt;
* Now click on &quot;Plugins&quot; Folder name. &lt;br /&gt;
* Then select &quot;No Indexing&quot; and save the settings.&lt;br /&gt;
* Scan your website with Virus Scanner:&lt;br /&gt;
* In the same &quot;Advanced&quot; section, click on &quot;Virus Scanner&quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
* Select &quot;Scan Entire Home Directory&quot; and click on Scan Now.&lt;br /&gt;
Did I miss some security measures? If yes, please let me know via comments and I will include them in this post.&lt;br /&gt;

It is the latest fashionable development in IT and all the large manufacturers have been quick to jump onto this bandwagon. Most of the major IT companies now offer a Cloud services solution, but how many of us know and understand what is behind the hype?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;What is the Cloud&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
At its most basic level, the Cloud is a collection of computer systems which appear as one entity to you, irrespective of locations. Most of the big Cloud computing services offer seamless access to a computing platform that uses multiple datacentres. These datacentres are often miles apart and can even be in different countries and even different continents.&lt;br /&gt;
The customer usually pays for the service that it uses, often in terms of processor or memory usage. Applications run on virtual machines that are independent of a physical host server, so can move quickly to other hardware or even another datacentre in the event of a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
The benefits it provides&lt;br /&gt;
Cloud services aim to allow customers to rapidly increase or decrease their computer usage, and hence costs, with demand. Many businesses, particularly in the retail sector, have significantly more computing demands at certain times of the year. To meet these demands, a company would need to have lots of computer power sat idle for most of the year or bring in computers for a short time.&lt;br /&gt;
Cloud services allow companies to leverage the vast computing power available from the suppliers but only pay for what they use. At times when demand increases, the Cloud services supplier allows customers to meet that demand but use less for the rest of the year.&lt;br /&gt;
Private and Public Clouds&lt;br /&gt;
Not only can you get Cloud services from a public supplier that is available over the internet, but it is also possible to build a private cloud that is only for your company. You could even sell any spare capacity to bring in an extra revenue stream for the business.&lt;br /&gt;
Accessing the Cloud&lt;br /&gt;
Most companies that use a Cloud services supplier access it over the internet or a leased-line connection to the datacentre. This allows employees and customers to access the Cloud applications from anywhere in the world. However, unlike applications that you install onto your pc or local server, any disruption to your network can prevent access to the applications and stop productivity. This can be avoided by having more than one internet connections to provide resilience - perhaps a landline and a wireless connection for an office. The Cloud services will normally come from more than one datacentre, so if one goes down completely your application and data will still be available.&lt;br /&gt;
Other Considerations&lt;br /&gt;
Many companies are queuing up to host your Cloud-based applications, but you might require technical assistance to migrate your existing infrastructure to the Cloud. The best approach might be to migrate one application or service at a time rather than do everything at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
Backups and other standard datacentre services will be part of the package from the Cloud supplier. Ensure that you check over any contracts to get the level of service you require.&lt;br /&gt;
Migrating applications and services to the Cloud will give your resilience and protect your important data and applications without spending vast amounts of money to upgrade your existing infrastructure. The size of these suppliers can bring you additional cost savings and reduce your IT support staff overheads by doing all of the technical work for you.&lt;br /&gt;

Cloud services, we are told, will eventually completely take over from traditional forms of data storage, for both personal and business users. But what is cloud computing, and how can it meet the needs of modern business?&lt;br /&gt;
Cloud computing is touted as a replacement to standard local area networks with a client-server set-up. Most businesses use client-server set-ups to ensure that all their users have access to the files and applications that they need to do their jobs. Ever-faster internet and a general move towards the use of online services has led to the development of the term &#39;cloud computing&#39;, to mean any online service that allows people to store and share data anywhere they like, rather than being reliant on accessing a particular network or PC. Services like Google docs are effectively cloud computing on a simple level. A particular user&#39;s cloud will include anything they store in online networks (from personal data to social media updates), and will connect to others&#39; clouds.&lt;br /&gt;
What about cloud services for business? Many of the cloud services intended for personal users are not always useful to business. That&#39;s where specialist business cloud services come in. Eager to capitalise on this brave new world of cloud computing, IT companies are developing a whole raft of cloud applications for business data storage and sharing. The advantage for businesses of using cloud applications over traditional applications is that they are available from anywhere, at any time, without the need for any physical software or severs. In other words, they meet the needs of an increasingly mobile, globalised workforce perfectly.&lt;br /&gt;
Of the most use to the majority of businesses are storage and backup services. These vary, but they are intended to allow users to store and back up all their files to the cloud, so that they can be accessed at any time by anyone. A member of staff who works from home would be able to access them just as easily as someone in the office would, just as they might log in to a webmail account. They should allow businesses to personalise privacy options and set up automatic synchronisation and emergency backup. Specialist applications are available too for particular business functions, such as finance applications and CRM systems. Each business can cherry-pick the applications which are right for them, creating their own personal cloud in just the same way as a home user would.&lt;br /&gt;

They allow you to manage your data storage and archiving, web and email hosting, databases, software applications, document storage, email, training videos and much more online.&lt;br /&gt;
Traditionally all this information and activity was stored and managed on your server or hard drive and you needed to install software applications onto individual computers to allow you to access them. Cloud computing takes away the need to invest in more hardware as your business expands, employ the services of IT technicians or manually install and upgrade software on individual computers.&lt;br /&gt;
Put simply the &#39;cloud&#39; relates to the internet. By investing in cloud services you pay for space in the cloud to manage your computer data. You, and your employees, can then access the cloud as you need to, only paying for the services you use, accessing applications as you need them, and increasing or scaling down your capacity as you need to. End-users no longer need to have the technical expertise to manage, monitor, maintain or support IT.&lt;br /&gt;
The advantages of cloud services are that you can access your data and software applications from any computer, laptop, smartphone or other device wherever you are in the world, as long as you have access to the internet. Because cloud services work by pooling computing resources, there are reduced costs and you are no longer limited to the expertise of your own IT department or hardware capacity.&lt;br /&gt;
Another important advantage is disaster recovery. By storing your data in a geographically remote environment you are reducing the risk of losing it should anything happen to your business premises or server.&lt;br /&gt;
However you need to read service level agreements very carefully to ensure you understand what services you are paying for. There may be hidden costs for example for data transfers, meta data functions or copying and deleting files. You must ensure your cloud services provider can guarantee the necessary levels of security, privacy and data compliance for your company. Once the agreement has been terminated, what happens to your files? Who is responsible for removing the data?&lt;br /&gt;
Cloud services are an increasingly attractive option for small to medium sized businesses as they allow them to invest in just the right level of services they need with flexibility for growth, however for larger businesses the long-term value of pay-as-you-go services needs to be balanced against investment in in-house services.&lt;br /&gt;

Network Attached Storage has increasingly been becoming more popular in recent years with its convenient and effective way of centralizing stored data and sharing computer data between a myriad of computers.&lt;br /&gt;
Years ago, floppy drives were more commonly used for mobile data storage. However, as the world progresses more into the digital age, even an average person&#39;s requirements for electronic data storage can no longer be contained in a floppy disk. Not even several floppy disks. The advent of both personal and work files, copies of pictures, MP3s, downloaded movies had definitely pushed floppy drives into irrelevancy due to their small storage capacities. And this is just for your average Joe on the street. So imagine the data storage requirements of medium-sized companies employing several computers across how many floors.&lt;br /&gt;
Need had always been the mother of all inventions, and as such NAS was developed and crept its way to our doors. NAS offered an alternative to the traditional file server approach by providing an effective system which is especially made for storing large amounts of data. Furthermore, NAS is sometimes referred to as a computer appliance - a computer specifically set up from the bottom up for storing files. NAS usually does not have a keyboard or uses a display. It is controlled over the network, normally by using a browser. NAS systems can contain one or more hard disks that are logically arranged. It can also contain redundant storage containers called RAID arrays. Computers in the network access data stored in NAS over an Ethernet connection. The IP address of the head device appears as a single node in the network. NAS systems aims for smooth, dependable operation and usually includes safety features such as disk space quotas, automated email alerts if there are errors detected, sometimes it may also contain secure authentication. NAS can store almost any types of data that are in the form of files. Files such as web content, email boxes and remote system backups. In a way, NAS pretty much provides the same services as that of traditional file servers.&lt;br /&gt;
NAS is not only useful for industrial uses in the office. In recent years, as the prices of NAS went down, NAS for home use had also been increasingly popular. As previously mentioned above, data storage requirements of a person has drastically increased in recent years. In addition, a typical household now contains more than one compute. These days, homes usually have a 1:1 ratio computer/laptop ownership. This allows NAS another avenue for its services. In any case, NAS is not just for standard centralized storage. Via its huge storage-providing services, NAS can also pave the way to enable much lower cost systems. This can include, but is not limited to, fault tolerant email and web-server emails. The best NAS in the market also well-suited for home-use is usually built upon PowerPC, ARM, or MIPS processors that usually run under an embedded Linux operating system.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://smartcomputerlab.blogspot.com/feeds/9082971597480427514/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://smartcomputerlab.blogspot.com/2011/08/what-is-network-attached-storage.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5208280164044045752/posts/default/9082971597480427514'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5208280164044045752/posts/default/9082971597480427514'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://smartcomputerlab.blogspot.com/2011/08/what-is-network-attached-storage.html' title='What Is Network Attached Storage?'/><author><name>Anonymous</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11205734467436825346</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5208280164044045752.post-2740243633723724882</id><published>2011-08-29T16:53:00.002+02:00</published><updated>2011-08-29T16:53:38.402+02:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Cloud"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Flexibility"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Services"/><title type='text'>The Flexibility of Cloud Services</title><content type='html'>&lt;div dir=&quot;rtl&quot; style=&quot;text-align: right;&quot; trbidi=&quot;on&quot;&gt;A true breakthrough in business IT solutions, cloud services are steadily being adopted by a growing number of businesses wishing to benefit from their flexibility, accessibility and cost effectiveness. The ease with which they can be integrated with existing IT infrastructures has been an influential factor in their widespread implementation.&lt;br /&gt;
Many large and long established businesses have understandably kept their existing in-house servers, unwilling to completely change their business IT infrastructure, while utilising storage for specific tasks. Rather than replace their existing storage network, businesses have turned to the cloud as a way to complement their existing storage network, which it can do in a number of ways.&lt;br /&gt;
Cloud storage is particularly useful for data archiving. The huge amount of sensitive data a business must handle securely and efficiently calls for an excellent data archiving and storage system. Cloud storage within a private cloud is a great choice with a reputable provider as it is the external provider who takes control of the data archiving, backup and protection.&lt;br /&gt;
Having the data stored securely offsite means a reduction in the hardware upgrades and expansion needed to handle the ever growing data files in-house. This makes storing data within a cloud very cost effective, removing the cost of maintaining on-premise storage capability and capacity. Cloud services also free up time for IT department s to focus on in-house issues.&lt;br /&gt;
Of course, cloud storage can also be used in the reverse way to the example given. A business may elect to store their most sensitive mission critical data using their in-house server, while archiving the less crucial and sensitive data using an external cloud storage provider. There really is complete flexibility regarding the integration of cloud storage with a business&#39; existing IT infrastructure.&lt;br /&gt;
As with cloud storage, cloud computing can be integrated with existing legacy computing systems, with only selected applications being delivered by the external service provider, such as business email for example. Again, the more mission critical applications can be entrusted to a reputable service provider, or they can be kept in-house while the service provider delivers less sensitive and important applications.&lt;br /&gt;
Having applications requiring enhanced accessibility, such as business email, delivered by an external cloud service provider is a sound decision, as the online cloud platform can easily be accessed using a wide range of hardware from anywhere across the globe.&lt;br /&gt;
Cloud services are here to stay and every forward thinking company should consider how cloud storage or computing could benefit their business.&lt;br /&gt;

I foresee a client list, proposals, contracts, documentation, work-related pictures, and financial data. All this data probably resides on one computer and if you have a file server, you would probably store the data there.&lt;br /&gt;
I advocate backing up mission-critical data offsite. This protects the data in case a theft, fire, or other disaster physically strikes your office. If that happened, you could restore the data and resume operations elsewhere.&lt;br /&gt;
Natural disasters happen. It&#39;s time for a quiz. Which disasters happened after January 1, 2000?&lt;br /&gt;
· A tsunami strikes Indonesia.&lt;br /&gt;
· Two hijacked airplanes crash into New York City.&lt;br /&gt;
· A hurricane and levee failures destroy New Orleans.&lt;br /&gt;
· A chemical plant in Massachusetts explodes. Buildings within a half mile are knocked off their foundations.&lt;br /&gt;
· A power failure in the northeast U.S. affects 40 million people.&lt;br /&gt;
· A fire closes downtown San Diego.&lt;br /&gt;
· A flood closes Nashville.&lt;br /&gt;
The answer: all.&lt;br /&gt;
Nobody is isolated from natural disasters. I am in California gold country. I hope fires won&#39;t sweep down the Sierra Nevada foothills. My friends to the west hope the dams won&#39;t break and flood Sacramento County. Backing up offsite gives you one less thing to worry about if a disaster were to happen and if it did, you could easily retrieve your data.&lt;br /&gt;
Intentional disasters happen.&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes disasters are intentional. A local business in a prestigious business park was victim to a theft. Somebody broke in, took their large-screen TVs, computers and backups, and left. This company did not have any offsite backups. I learned of this theft when sheriff&#39;s deputies asked the victim&#39;s neighbor, a customer of mine, for any outside video surveillance recordings. I do not know if that business remained in business. &lt;br /&gt;
Accidental disasters happen&lt;br /&gt;
Sometimes disasters are accidental. I once overwrote my QuickBooks company file, which holds several years&#39; worth of financial data. I realized this mistake quickly. I merely renamed my defective QuickBooks company file, connected to my offsite backup provider, and restored a previous version of that same file. There was no need for prayer; there was no profanity involved.&lt;br /&gt;
I have a customer where a man with 10% ownership of the firm deleted nearly one billion bytes of data from the server and then walked out. Without backups of this data, they could have been out of business within a month. I simply connected to the customer&#39;s server and then restored the data from the firm&#39;s offsite backup provider.&lt;br /&gt;
Pay or free offsite backups&lt;br /&gt;
Offsite backups are a growing field. I use a service that charges $5 per month for each billion bytes of data. This is equal to a 50,000-page book. I&#39;ve also seen some offers for free offsite backups. I have never enrolled a client in one of these services.&lt;br /&gt;
Would you trust your valuable business data to a free backup service?&lt;br /&gt;
That is what many unsuspecting small and mid-size businesses are doing these days. The promise of unlimited space for a backup at little to no cost in some instances seems too good to be true, and it is. There are many companies out there promising to back up your data for free. Now, as a small business owner yourself I ask you, what would happen if you gave away your products and services for free? You would not be in business for very long.&lt;br /&gt;
While some of these companies are promising to back up your data for pennies, there are other companies out there offering online backup software for a bit higher of a price, and some people just can&#39;t seem to figure out why there is such a difference.&lt;br /&gt;
As businesses have been seeing a rise in the need for more efficient backup and disaster recovery policies, the market has seen a number of companies rise up to help fill this void. How do you choose which company to back up your valuable business data?&lt;br /&gt;
Here are a few things to look for when selecting an online backup service:&lt;br /&gt;
Protecting data and technologies onsite. With technology there will always be a need for technical support. You need to be sure that the company you are doing business with offers technical support both over the phone and through e-mail. Although many of the cheap/free services say they offer support, good luck getting any when you need it. I know of some that back up data to Vietnam. Good luck calling them. The service I resell is the second online backup company I&#39;ve used. The first could not keep track of my accounts. I was their largest reseller in California at the time...I took my business elsewhere and found a service that has proven to be very reliable.&lt;br /&gt;
Security. Security comes into play with online backup in many ways. First and foremost, you need to make sure that the company you choose to do business with offers high levels of encryption. Encryption can come into play when the backup is started on the end user side; it should be sent to the company using an SSL connection and the company should not keep a copy of your encryption key. You will be safest with a company that is upfront and tells you that they DO NOT keep a copy of your encryption key. This insures that they are within compliance and that nobody can access your data unless they are authorized to do so by having your encryption key. Many of the cheap or free services will maintain a copy of the encryption key within their servers, which is not considered secure at all.&lt;br /&gt;
Redundancy. If you are choosing a company to back up your data, wouldn&#39;t you expect that company to practice what they preach? For maximum security and protection, you should be sure that the company you have backing you up is backing up themselves. As a backup company, one data center-or in some cases, a couple of servers-in their closet is simply not enough. If you want to be sure that your data is available to you when you need it, you should work with a company that backs itself up. The service I use has redundant servers near Boston and Los Angeles.&lt;br /&gt;
Data retention. What would happen if you accidentally deleted a file on your computer that you were backing up and didn&#39;t realize it until a few weeks later? If you are working with a viable online backup company you would be able to get that file back. However, with many of the cheap/free online backup services, if you were to delete a file on your end, they would delete it within their servers in as little as a few weeks and sometimes days. Because these cheap services have very little revenue coming in to support the cost of doing business, they need to find ways to keep the usage down on their servers. A service that might cost a little bit more will retain data on their end until you tell the backup software it is time to delete the files.&lt;br /&gt;
Bandwidth utilization. Bandwidth (speed potential) has a cost. In the instance of the cheap online backup services, they limit the amount of data and speed of uploads and downloads in order to minimize cost. With a legitimate online backup service, you will be allowed to transfer as much data as you need without incurring any slowdowns or penalties.&lt;br /&gt;
SQL and Exchange. Many businesses today are using SQL servers and Exchange servers and require that this vital part of their business is backed up. Some services will charge additional fees for SQL and Exchange and some will not even offer them as options. You will need to find a service that supports backing up of both SQL and Exchange without additional cost.&lt;br /&gt;
You Need to Know When Backups Are Working&lt;br /&gt;
Most online backup providers these days send notifications of backups. Notifications arrive in my e-mail and look like this:&lt;br /&gt;
This is an automatic message from your backup service.&lt;br /&gt;
Username: markgermanos &lt;br /&gt;
Computer ID: 0000 &lt;br /&gt;
The &quot;Poweredge Backup&quot; backup finished.&lt;br /&gt;
Files In Set: 5706&lt;br /&gt;
Files Backed Up: 42&lt;br /&gt;
Data Sent: 48.72 MB&lt;br /&gt;
Start Time: Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009 (10:00:00 PM)&lt;br /&gt;
End Time: Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009 (10:22:51 PM)&lt;br /&gt;
Runtime (h:m:s): 00:22:51&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you,&lt;br /&gt;
This simple notification tells me:&lt;br /&gt;
· The customer&#39;s site has power.&lt;br /&gt;
· The server is up and running.&lt;br /&gt;
· The backup software is working.&lt;br /&gt;
· The Internet connection is alive.&lt;br /&gt;
· The backup was successful.&lt;br /&gt;
If you are the customer, you receive the same notifications&lt;br /&gt;
You Need to Know When Backups Are Not Working&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing these successful notifications day after day, week after week, month after month, you may fall into the habit of assuming backups always work. Not so. You also need to know when backups are not working. Fortunately, the service I use also sends notifications of failed or missed backups. I think they are more valuable than the successful notifications I just finished discussing. One of these messages looks like this:&lt;br /&gt;
Dear Joe Smith,&lt;br /&gt;
This is an automatic email notification about your Online Backup Service Account: joesmith. We are writing to inform you that it has been 42 days since your last backup.&lt;br /&gt;
As many of our customers use our service as an archival service, this may not indicate a problem. However, if you believe your account should be performing backups at regular intervals, we recommend...&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you,&lt;br /&gt;
This tells me something is wrong. Maybe the server does not work. Maybe the company has gone 42 days without Internet access. In this case, somebody who did not know what he was doing decided to remove the backup software from the server. The company was lucky they did not need to restore any data during that time span.&lt;br /&gt;
How Will You Respond to a Disaster?&lt;br /&gt;
That&#39;s why you need a reliable solution. I&#39;ve been advocating online backups for years. Here are two opposing responses to disasters.&lt;br /&gt;
At one customer, one of the partners said, &quot;I blew up my database. I lost a month&#39;s work of billable work. Oh well, I have some cash.&quot; He had no backup strategy. I do not know if he is still in business.&lt;br /&gt;
At another client, the office manager wrote me a testimonial: &quot;I just wanted to thank you for your quick response when I discovered that my boss had corrupted the data in our [billing] program. Thankfully, you were able to restore our data from that night&#39;s backup and we were up and running in about 2 hours. I can&#39;t imagine where we would be if not for the reliability of our backups. The service was a lifesaver. Thanks again.&lt;br /&gt;

Online file storage services have now taken over where external hard drives left off as the most effective and convenient way of keeping documents safe. Whilst online file storage has a number of great benefits, it is also important to be aware that by storing your files online you can make the information vulnerable to hackers. Depending on computer usage and needs, many people opt to use a combination of online and physical storage systems.&lt;br /&gt;
With online storage, you can access your data from any computer meaning that if your computer is ever lost or stolen then you can still access your data. It also means that it doesn&#39;t matter what country you are in or what computer you use, you will still have access to important information whenever you need it. All you need is your log-in details and you will be granted access no matter where you are!&lt;br /&gt;
One of the best things about using an online system is that it makes backing-up your information automatic. With other traditional forms of backing-up you need to manually save each document which can be extremely time-consuming and frustrating. With online file storage all you need do is to select the items you want backing-up and the service will do it all for you automatically.&lt;br /&gt;
Online file storage gives you the peace of mind that your important documents are safe and secure in the event of an accident. The files are stored in a secure, remote area which is far removed from your location. If anything should happen that damages your computer you can rest assured that your files will be safe.&lt;br /&gt;
Conventional methods of storing information meant that you had to physically store disks or CDs away somewhere but with online file storage the problem of storage space is solved. The cost of online file storage varies but many services offer up to 2 GB for free and after that a low monthly fee is required. Many of the services on offer these days have redundant systems so even if one of the storage facilities are damaged, your data will still be safe.&lt;br /&gt;
However, the main issue with storing your files online is that the data can sometimes by accessed by hackers if the security levels are not high enough. However, this can also be true of any data on your computer when it is connected to the internet, but physical back-up disks can&#39;t be accessed remotely.&lt;br /&gt;
Another possible problem with online file storage is the cost. Some online file storage services may charge monthly or annual fees that when paid over time can add up to much more than the cost of a physical back-up device. You also need to make sure that you remember your log-in details otherwise you won&#39;t be able to access your information.&lt;br /&gt;
If you are a home user or a student with lots of important files that don&#39;t take up much space then a free online storage system is a perfect way to make sure all your files and photos are safe. Businesses will almost certainly benefit from the convenience of automated online storage systems as well. Make sure you assess your own needs and requirements before making a decision about online file storage.&lt;br /&gt;

What specifications do you need to out look for when buying one? A flash drive is a plug and play, portable storage device or portable data storage plugged to the PC for the retrieval and storage of electronic data. The function is rather similar to the old office supplies like the floppy disk or CD ROM, only the flash drive is smaller physically and capable of storing several gigabytes of data.&lt;br /&gt;
Physically, a USB flash drive involves a miniature circuit board implanted with the sophisticated circuit essentials to work with the computer&#39;s operating system. The device is integrated with a USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface compliant to the computer port. As a computer peripheral device, a flash drive is small (less than 30g in weight); typically removable and data can be deleted or rewritten over with new data.&lt;br /&gt;
The selection of a USB flash drive compatible to the computer operating system is primarily influenced by capacity in gigabytes, along with other features that provide convenience in the transfer of information such as stored data security protection, physical size and the longevity of stored data particularly when device is unplugged from the computer for an indefinite period of time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Capacity in Gigabytes.&lt;/b&gt; Due to the absence of moving parts, more storage capacity is available as compared to floppy disks that have been phased out since 2005. USB devices are available with capacities ranging from about 65GB to over 200GB, in corresponding range of prices with cost tied up to capacity in gigabytes.&lt;b&gt;Information Security Protection.&lt;/b&gt; Password protection is a feature added to some USB drive models and integrated with drivers to expand compatibility even with older systems. What makes a USB flash drive different from other portable data storage devices is that the user need not reboot once the device is attached to the computer port - and no external power is needed as well.&lt;b&gt;Convenience in the Transfer of Stored Data.&lt;/b&gt; Data files from a PC or laptop are retrieved, rewritten and stored in the USB drive. Transfer to another computer is done by simply plugging the USB drive pulled out from the previous PC and data can be accessed or stored automatically&lt;b&gt;Physical Size.&lt;/b&gt; Most flash drives available in the market are really so small. These are typically electrically insulated and encased inside plastic, metal or even rubberized casing that it can be carried along in a pocket or secured by a key chain. Moreover, the USB connector comes with a removable cap that is designed to retract into the body as a form of protection, although damage could not likely happen even if left bare.&lt;br /&gt;
USB flash drives are now necessary peripherals that must form part of the workplace office supplies. Remember, to look for the features that can enhance storage capability when looking for portable data storage for the computer.&lt;br /&gt;

The facility needs to be guarded at all times so as to prevent unauthorized access from unscrupulous people who aim for its destruction. This makes the job quite a challenge considering that business rivals are pretty much after your crucial applications and data.&lt;br /&gt;
The series of responsibilities involved in operating a conventional data center include the management of servers, databases, power distribution, cooling, and networking. Monitoring the functions of each requires a considerable amount of effort and time. You have to be very careful so as to immediately identify possible problems that might occur in any of the elements. That is why you have to acquire a particular technology effective enough to guarantee the efficient handling of the entire facility. Allow me to introduce DCIM or Data Center Infrastructure Management.&lt;br /&gt;
In case you have no knowledge yet about DCIM, this post will let you understand the basic definition of the technology and exactly how it can be useful in addressing the major concern of handling a this particular center. This technology carries a number of features that you basically need to ensure the security of company information while reducing costs at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
Data files and applications increase in number overtime as the business continues to operate. However, you cannot simply dispose any of them to minimize the clutter.
