FMS on Cloud Hosting?

Hello. Forgive me this has been asked already. I have already purchased FMS Streaming Server 3 and run it off of a dedicated server. However, I would like to switch my hosting to cloud hosting (possibly rackspace cloud). I have a couple of questions...
1) Will FMS 3 and/or 3.5 run off of a cloud "virtual" dedicated machine?
2) If so, how can I transfer my license to make this work?
3) If cloud hosting crashes, for example, and they rebuild the cloud with a new IP, will FMS not work? How does the license recognize which machine it is on?
Thanks for the help!
Matt-

A virutalized environment isn't ideal for FMS, for a number of reasons:
1. A VM is often subject to varied clock jitter, which can really screw (yeah, that's a technical term) with clock based operations involved in media streams. I've seen all sorts of goofiness, including odd pauses in the streams, loss of audio/video sync, and loss of audio altogether.
2. If the hardware is shared (for example, in the EC2 environment) you'll be in competition for network and disk resources with the other VM's running on the hardware (cloud services often guarantee processor and memory resources, but can't/won't guarantee disk time or bandwidth). If you don't control the hardware and the network uplink, you'll never know if the other VM's running on the hardware will eat up all of the available bandwidth or bog down the disk to the point where your streams can't perform.
3. Some virtualized environments require a checksum each time a file is requested. This can be a major performance hurdle, especially when dealing with large files.
As for the licensing, the FMS license is not IP based, so as long as FMS is properly installed when the VM starts up, FMS will work. You'd need to build an image that includes directives to write the license key to the ini file when the disk image mounts.
FMS will run on a VM, but I'd recommend going with dedicated hardware for any production environment. It will save you endless headaches trying to chase down performance problems.

Connecting clients to their cloud hosted in my Datacenter

Hello everyone , i'm new here ^^
i'm looking for some documents to understand different ways and technologies ( MPLS / VPN / Dedicated line ) that allow clients to connect into their cloud hosted in my Datacenter for example., how it works ?and how to secure each of these connections between me ( the provider of service ) and my clients (category of the service does not matter "IAAS, PAAS or SAAS" )
Sorry for my bad English , thanks in advance

Clearly you're reading the wrong manuals if they're referring to Active Directory
The big question is going to be: what do the logs say?
Either the logs on the client machine, or the logs on the directory server. One (or both) of these should have some indication as to the problem. It could be a problem with the account (is the account enabled) or the home directory, or any number of other things. Knowing the log message will go a long way to explaining what's wrong here.
You could also try setting a user's home directory to something other than the network directory to see if the problem lies with mounting the home directory vs. logging in at all.

Hi SanVerma,
Thanks for your posting!
From your description, I think firstly you need confirm which one host service could meet your target. I suggest you could refer to this page about Azure Websites, Cloud Services, and Virtual Machines comparison:
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/choose-web-site-cloud-service-vm/
The above link could answer your hosting questions 1,2,4.
Hosting:
>>3.How much space we will get.
It depends on your size:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn197896.aspx
>>5.
Currently we are using InProc session. What modification will be required by the application.
You need use the Azure cache service or SQL Azure storage to store your session data, please see those blog:

http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-dotnet-session-state-caching/
>>6
Can we point our DNS to the application we host.
If you use Azure VM to host your application, you could use Azure Virtual Network to deploy your DNS server, Please see this page:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/azure/jj156088.aspx
>>
We do development on our On-Premise environment, do we also get any staging/testing server along with production server.
>>
Does the usage of application on staging server is chargeable.
Yes, you can do this. If you use Azure cloud service stage/production environment, You could be charged. If you use single VM to host your production and staging project, you could be charged the single VM.
>> How many instances we will be getting for one application
It depends on your requirement, If the quota is not enough, you could contact the Azure support to increase the quota. >>Does environment automatically increase or decreases the instances in use as per increase or decrease in load.
Azure platform support the AutoScale. You can set the feature using code or portal.

SQL Azure:
>> 1.Which version of SQL Server we will get.
Firstly, you need clarify the SQL Azure and sql server. SQL Azure is a data as a service. SQL server in VM is a VM which is installed sql server. If you wants to use SQL Server, I suggest you could refer to this pricing page:
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/calculator/?scenario=virtual-machines

Cloud Hosting Installation

I love arch am trying to find a cloud hosting company that supports it. The only route I can find is with a VMware hosting company because they allow you to install from your own media - I'm sure it works but the VMware hosting companies are too expensive. The product for reference is this cloud hosting. I'd like to find similar but at a reasonable cost.
Why do all the hosting companies love centos? I'm always being offered that!
Thanks in advance.
John.

There are a few VPS Providers that provide Arch... Haven't heard of any Cloud platforms though, sorry.

How do you publish a website to the free Cloud hosting?

Adobe Cloud states that you can have up to 5 websites hosted on the Cloud. when you search for info on this it says it is on the right panel on the Cloud. When you click on the learn more it tells you nothing more. Is this feature not available yet?

Hi there - this video tutorial might help you out.
You'll be hosting your website through Adobe Business Catalyst, which is an online hosting platform. You can publish your website directly from either Muse or Dreamweaver, and then manage and push it live from the online Business Catalyst Platform. However, to host a live site, you'll need to purchase your own domain name.
You might also want to check out the Business Catalyst FAQ, or the product page.

Creative Cloud Hosting Question?

Hello,
I am a Creative Cloud member and have just started a photography website with muse. I know that I can use 1 of 5 sites available through my creative cloud membership through hosting. However, I am wanting to add files directly to my hosting account through creative cloud... is this possible? I have some widgets that I want to use that requires me to upload some files directly to my root folder in hosting in order for them to work properly.
Let me know if this is possible or if anyone has done this!
Thanks!

This video will give you a good overview of publishing Single Edition apps with a Creative Cloud subscription:
http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-digital-publishing-suite-single-edition/workflow-for-creat ive-cloud-and-single-edition/
You can update the content of your Single Edition app as long as you have an active Creative Cloud membership. In theory you could pay for a month of Creative Cloud, publish your app, cancel your membership and then when you're ready to update your app you could sign up for another month of Creative Cloud membership.
Here's a good place to start if you don't know much about DPS:

Oracle DB license on cloud hosting provider

Hello,
one of our customers have a valid license for their onsite application. Now, they want to transfer this application to a cloud provider (not Azure not Amazon) and we wonder if the license will be still valid or not.
I have tried to find something about this, but it's still not clear for me (license *all* the hosts of the provider for a small application it just doesnt make sense). It could be valid in case of named-user licensing , and not per-CPU licensing?
Also, we wil consider in the future to move the application into a kind-of-SaaS format. This is, a dedicated virtual server on a hosting provider (different than the big ones) but this server only dedicated for one customer. Each customer would have their own virtual server. How should we license the databse? per-user o per-cpu?
Thank you very much

The existing license will probably still be 'valid' but most likely insufficient to cover the requirement. If it's not Azure or Amazon (i.e. not one of Oracle's 'Authorized Cloud Environments' (by the way, where is Oracle Cloud??)) then you / your customer will struggle. It'll be a case of licensing every physical server that makes up the cloud. I agree, this does not make sense, but this is what would happen. See here
Named User license, assuming DBEE, would require minimums based on hardware so this doesn't help you: if the cloud provider adds another server to the environment there would be an automatic need to increase licensing. This is very risky. Consider DBSE, if at all possible (Named User Plus licenses for DBSE are NOT based on hardware and are considerably cheaper than DBEE).
For your KoSaaS (that's another new one for the acronym list!), ignore the virtual servers; Oracle is only interested in physical servers. Named User Plus or Processor really boils down to how 'countable' the users at the client-end actually are. For the avoidance of any potential non-compliance, I'd strongly recommend Processor unless you can guarantee Named User Plus license is equal to or greater than the number of Named User Plus. See here. You also need to consider hosting rights, if you are providing the license-there are consequences of someone else using 'your' Oracle software for their business benefit.
I have to base my answer on assumptions and standard T&Cs etc; this response is supplied without detailed knowledge of your situation or requirements.

Amazon Cloud hosting?

Dear Colleagues:
Does any of you know, or have experience with hosting a CF application in the Amazon Cloud? Do they have CF licenses for monthly rent under a hosting plan, or do you need to provide your own license and server maintenance? I seem not to be able to find this info, where a seasoned IT/Internet person suggested it to be a possibility (hosting, that is, other than CF of which he knew nothing).
Hope to hear from you.
Thanks!

Hi,
For scaling you can use elastic load balancer, add webservers or additional app servers. But it is important that you validate your architechture with your application first, depending on the traffic you are expecting.
In general its a good practice to use either relational or NoSQL database to handle authentication/client management. Ideally you should be looking at a seperate DB server for scalability and easier maintainance. You can use services provided by Amazon like RDS or of your choice (refer https://aws.amazon.com/running_databases/). However if the setup is small you can use the MySQL DB available with ColdFusion's AMI

Cloud Hosting for an Wordpress E-commerce Website

I need hosting solution for an e-commerce website built using open source CMS wordpress.
Estimated Traffic of 100,000 per month and 100 transaction / day.
What would be the requirement and what are the pricing for the same.

With regards to daily transactions and month-wise website traffic, I would advise you to opt for Cloudways, a niche PaaS cloud that provides highly optimized servers with dedicated IPs. Also, you can deploy multiple WordPress applications with just a single
click. Coupled with the power of Varnish, Memcached, Apache, Nginx, Cloudways ensures blazing fast page load speed and optimized performance. You can also monitor more than 15 key server and application metrics through a powerful console. You can also scale
your server as per your liking. The platform-level security regime monitors and manages your server performance round the clock, so that your WordPress site remains secure.
Cloudways offers pay-as-you-go pricing model, thus you just have to pay for the resources used only.

Export PDF to Excel from adobe/cloud hosted document

Hi,
I am working with several files of ~50MB from a remote location with a poor internet connection. When trying to do the upload & export/conversion from PDF to excel, I get getting errors to the effect that service was un available ot network problem so I decided to upload my files to the Adobe file store thinking it would then be quicker and more reliable to apply the conversion on the hosted files through the web interface.
But....................from the file store menu, I cant see any option to convert/export the file and from the ExportPDF menu, I can only choose files from my local system to upload again!!??
Please help.
Sizwe

Hi Ronald Boone Mill,
Did you use the ExportPDF service to convert the file to Excel? Or did you use Acrobat?
Can you please tell me a bit about how the file was created? If you don't know, you can see what created it by choosing File > Properties, and looking at the PDF Producer on the Description tab. The quality of the conversion depends on how well the PDF was written, and some third-party PDF producers may not include all the information necessary to ensure a clean conversion.
If the file wasn't created from a scanned PDF, you may have better luck by disabling OCR as described in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (O... | Adobe Community

Creative Cloud for Teams and Single Apps

Dear Adobe,
I am an IT manager with a company that had 29 licenses of CS6, we now have Creative Cloud for teams, which is great.
However, Part of my company (the accounts side of things) only need Adobe Acrobat.
Why... WHY? Can't I have 30 single app licenses for these users under the same account? I got a call from your offshore licensing group and the woman who I talked to didn't seem to understand what I need.
I need the ability to give the entire creative cloud to some of my users.
but for the rest, I need to be able to only roll out Acrobat...
Thanks for the help

I am in the same situation. I do the design work for my clients they look at and markup PDF files. They have their own software. To add them to the team cost me $70.00 a month, 22 of them would cost a lot of money.
After setting up the first system Adobe took away file syncing the day after we had it setup. And team members were not able to see one another's files. Asking for a refund they transfer us to the special billing department for teams, then the line goes dead. I am guessing that my request for refunds is falling on deaf ears.
Our solution was to acquire our own Cloud hosting server $299.00 a year and $22,000 (there are cheaper) for the Cloud Server. We will have save the Adobe solution costs within the first year.
