Cloud based computing for beginners?

The first thing you need to figure out is WHICH cloud skill set are they looking for?  Do they want you to know how to use public cloud offerings like Amazon, Azure and Rackspace?  If so, make an account and start working with them, it's that easy.  There is no way to learn except to do it.
If they are looking for building and supporting cloud computing itself, then you do the same thing that you do with any field.... download the software and build yourself a lab at home.  OpenStack is far and away the dominant cloud platform and it is completely free.  You can do cloud computing at home pretty easily to get yourself started.
Cloud isn't a skill on its own.  That's like says "computers" as a skill.  What specific skill set are they seeking?

This link should introduce you to basics and then acquiring some knowledge, you should contact your local CLOUD SOLUTIONS SMBs to find out more about what they are offering, what they mean by cloud based app solutions, pricing ideas, hosting, reliability & stability, cost effectiveness comparing to your local hosted server, security of your hosted data. Before all that, just go through the basics and then get some consultation as practical knowledge and experiences are better than theories over the internet everywhere.

  • How do I change the "home based" computer for my IPOD to a new laptop?

    How do I change the "home based" computer for my IPOD to a new laptop?  When I plug in y IPOD classic, I get a msg asking me to erase the IPOD.  What I'd like to do is make the laptop my "home base" vs. my desktop.  I have had no success when using icons from ITUNES. 

    You need to move the iTunes library from your home computer to your new laptop first.  From there you'll be able to continue syncing your iPod as before.  This iTunes support article covers the different methods available for moving your iTunes library from one PC to another.

  • Cloud based storage for Ovi Store?

    I just read about the Ovi Store keeping purchases for only 12 months? Seems unbelievable that it
    would be that way. How about Nokia giving us Nokia users a minimum of 2GB of cloud storage so that the purchases can be backed up to and restored when necessary. At this point I can only back it up locally into my hard disk as a .nbu file.
    The Ovi Store stopped allowing me to send a app (download to PC is broken) to my hard disk for later install. What options do we Nokia users have at this point?

    Google drive.   However dont consider vital data or archives for use IN cloud based storage.
    There is no such thing as a "cloud" reductively, its just anonymous server farms.
    Cloud based storage
    Drawbacks:
    1. Cloud storage can only be quasi-possessed.
    2. No genuine true security and privacy of data.
    3. Should never be considered for vital data storage or especially long-term.
    4. *Level-0 security of your vital data. 
    Advantages:
    1. Quick, easy and cheap storage location for simplex files for transfer to keep on hand and yet off the computer.
    2. Easy source for small-file data sharing.

  • Cloud based iTunes?

    Best to start out explaining the situation...LOL.  I travel full time for work, so almost always gone someplace, in a hotel in the evenings with wifi.  I have a quite large and hard to manage iTunes library (over 80k songs) that I maintain on my laptop (Macbook Pro).  My son uses the same music on a different hard drive, with his own library file.  I add music quite often.  This has presented a unique situation trying to keep my sons music updated.  We can easily update his drive to add the new music, but now, the program we've used, ITLU, doesn't seem to work anymore.  Is there a cloud based option for us?  I'm talking about a drive I have on the home network that I can link to, as a network drive, when I am traveling?  Any other reasonable suggestions would be welcome.

    Slink ($25) - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/slink/id402358338?mt=12 - "Slink is the easy way to remotely access your home network. Listen to your iTunes music and watch your movies from anywhere, get the files from your home Mac or Time Capsule that you forgot to bring with you on the road, or help your parents or kids out using remote screen sharing.

    Hello Thediamond
    Go to the iTunes preferences, go to the Store tab and check to see if the Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases. Also check to see if any purchases are hidden as well.

  • I am looking for a cloud based photo management solution

    I have thousands of photos that I need to organize online so that they can be found easily (via search/tagging) and downloaded from any computer. Essentially I need a cloud-based version of Bridge. Does Bridge work like this? Does Adobe have another solution that does? I am currently a CC member. Thanks for your help. - Jake

    No, adobe bridge does not work like that. Just that you might ceate several folders on Adobe Creative Cloud and manage them(if possible).

  • Pre-compute for Value based dimensions in AWM 10g

    hi,
    I created a compressed partitioned MOLAP cube in OWB 10.2.0.3 based on some value based dimensions.
    I selected the hierarchy in value based dimensions for pre-compute, but it did display the hierarchy in OWB.
    I deployed the cube into Analytical workspace AWM 10g(10.2.0.3A).It created PRECOMPUTE(NA) in the relation statement for the value based dimensions.
    Is it that value based dimensions cannot be pre-computed (at the heirarchy) in AWM 10g ?
    Regards
    Chakri

    For reference, I believe this error was due to the deletion and recreation of a standard form AW formula without full restoration of the formula's PROPERTY values. AWXML (and hence 10g OWB/AWM) will not work correctly if you remove PROPERTY values from objects.

    Since Office 365 is a Microsoft product and not an Apple product, it doubtful you'll get an answer here. Suggest you post in a M$ Office 365 forum, like this one http://support.microsoft.com/ph/15834/en  Google for others.

  • 8.0.2 - problem 1 - unable to scroll screen when the keyboard is present. Huge problem for emails and other cloud based providers that allow for data entry. We need a fix ASAP!

    8.0.2 - problem 1 - unable to scroll screen down or up when the keyboard is present. When typing text, I am unable to see the text I am writing due to this problem. Huge problem for emails and other cloud based providers that allow for data text entry. While the keyboard is present, I am unable to scroll down to see the text, the screen automatically scrolls back up to the top of the screen. We need a fix ASAP!

    Have you tried resetting your iPad? You will not lose any data. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Are web/cloud-based dev and apps dist the future for LV?

    The direction of software companies such as Microsoft and Adobe is that they are no longer distributing media for standalone PCs.  (we all know that if we didn't need to dist the hefty LV RTE life would be a bit easier)
    You no longer purchase specific versions of their software instead you subcribe and login to have access to the latest versions from any location.
    Examples are Office 365 and Adobe Creative Cloud.  Presumably the subscription arrangement for them is more profitable.
    Will this (a) be the future for LV development environment; and (b) will this make it possible for developers to adopt similar strategies for distributing their own apps?
    Currently is this something that the webservices features of LV can deal with to some degree?  I understand this is limited to a small number of concurrent users at a time?  I also understand that web-based are not exactly the same as cloud-based applications.
    Is this something NI is not moving toward since LV has traditionally been tied to fixed hardware (i.e. data acquisition) applications?
    Anyway, I'd be interested in hearing people's opinions..

    I can't speak for NI's future plans.  But I don't think a move like this would benefit much of the LabVIEW community.  I'm sure there are some that would fine a clound or web based distribution system convinient but for me many of the system I install LabVIEW, TestStand, DAQmx, XNET, and many other NI tools are offline perminently.  These computers don't get future Windows updates, or NI updates unless I make an effort to put them on the network, or bring over DVDs and external drives with updates on them.
    So as for distributing NI applications I don't think this is a good move.  They already have a subscription based approach with things like the VLA, Enterprise solutions, and SSP.  Having the user go NI.com and download the tools you want has worked, and moving to a cloud application won't really work because NI users are quite diverse.  Office 365 works because if you use office, you use the same office.  But with LabVIEW there are so many 3rd party tools and libraries that the LabVIEW you use can be very different from the one I use.
    As for distributing your own built applications I think this would be neat, but again not right for me.
