Implementation approach/Guidelines for MDS.

Hi Team,
I am looking for a document which can give me the implementation approach or guidelines for Master Data Services(MDS).
Appreciate your quick help in this.
Thanks
Arsa.

Arsa,
There is a paper: Implementing
a Phased Approach to Master Data Management from SQL Server 2008 R2 but is still relevant.
The complete series is here: Organizational Approaches to Master Data Management
I would also recommend is the: Master Data Services Support Site
Hope this helps.

Guidelines for when to use JNI

I didn't find an answer to this in any FAQ or the 2 JNI books I have, so apologies in advance if this is a common question whose answer has already been posted -
Do any guidelines exist for when, and to what extent, JNI should be used?
I'm currently working on my second project where the question of whether or not to use it has come up. Both projects were distributed and contained both C++ and Java code in different areas. The issue came up when the need arose to implement a new shared library that had to be used by both C++ and Java code. Logging and configuration services are examples of the new functionality.
The choice is whether to implement the new libraries primarily in C++ and supply a Java interface, via JNI, for Java code which needs to use it, or to implement the new libraries in both C++ and Java to support both types of clients.
On the previous project, a team member had extensive JNI experience and recommended the dual language implementation approach instead of JNI. This worked out ok except we did have to have to ensure the new library developer was skilled in both C++ and Java, and he had to be sure to update both when changes to 1 were necessary - a maintenance problem. The experienced JNI developer made this recommendation due to issues he had encountered previously - most notably issues related to errors in the native code which brought down the JVM.
On the current project, we're opting for base C++ implementations with JNI wrappers. That's making me somewhat nervous since the alternative seems safer.
What do other developers think?

Have you checked out www.javaworld.com. They usually have very good and in-depth articles. IMHO, it all depends on the sort of use your library is intended for. If its used extensively by native code, use C++ with a Java wrapper. It its the other way around, implement it in Java and use a JNI interface for native code. I would really consider this carefully before implementing stuff in C++ that is used from Java. First of all, Java is after all much simpler than C++, its a more elgant OO-language and you have the platform neutrality. On the other hand, C++ has its sides. I dont use JNI unless its absolutely neccessary, in situations like using legacy code.
These are just a few of my thoughts, hope it gives you some hints.

Best Practises and Guidelines for SharePoint 2013 Development

Currently We are using SharePoint 2010 and doing a lot of enhancement and customization in the portal.
we are planning to migrate SharePoint 2013 after 6-9 months.
I want to know what are the best practices and guidelines for development in SharePoint 2010 keeping one thing in mind that customization should be compatible or can easily migrate to SharePoint 2013 so that re-engineering effort would be as minimum
as possible.
We have every possible piece of customization in SharePoint 2010 portal like web part, event receivers, workflows, master page, page layout, custom search etc.
Please do the needful.

Best practices don't really apply here. They are generally rules of thumb that you can apply without thinking too much and be pretty much right. Development is by it's nature too varied to allow that sort of best practice guidance.
Having said that the main thing you should be concerned with around the choice of development approach in 2013 is the intended future of your client and the application. If they are making a move to the cloud you should be concentrating on the app model
and rapidly phasing out farm solutions. If they are considering it then you can still consider using the more old-school options of farm solutions and sandboxed solutions. If they can't go to the cloud because of data security etc. then you are more or less
free to use what you like.
Also, try to move to client side processing wherever possible. MS are only going to make server side work less pleasant in future.
Beyond that, get to some conferences and start chewing through some of the blogs on the topic.

If you need help quickly... Guideline for posting an effective question.

Whenever you have a question that you would like answered, do pose that question effectively.
First, do not assume that because you have tried many, many times that your question is understood by someone else. What is obvious to you may not be for another. So please state in a very detailed and structured way what steps you have taken to cause your problem, how you can replicate this problem, under what circumstances on what hardware/software.
The fact that you have nearly given up because of your problem does not mean that someone else can readily understand this problem. When you go to your doctor and say: "I have a pain in my stomach" he will ask you a lot of questions. Same applies here. Your doctor may need to know about any medication you have taken, your blood pressure, history, etc. If you want help, be as PRECISE and ACCURATE as possible.
Second, this is a USER TO USER forum. So ranting will not help. What may help is a STRUCTURED approach to describing the problem you have.
Third, do a thorough search of posts here, on other fora and with Google before repeating what has been asked a thousand times and has worn out the patience of regulars here, who have answered your question a dozen times already. Use the FAQ and the Wiki to find answers to questions that have been posed and answered repeatedly. Do not assume you are unique with your problem. Well, you are unique, the problem you have most likely is not.
Fourth, realize that even though it may be highly frustrating to you to not be able to solve YOUR problem, by posting your question here, you are dependent on fellow editors to help you on their free time without compensation, so bear with them to help identify what EXACTLY is your problem. If you lack that decency, you may forfeit their help, so why did you come here?
Fifth, consider your work flow in light of the purpose of Premiere, an editing package. If you have problems with rotoscoping, programming with APL, spreadsheets in general, word processing on a mobile phone, importing Panda bears into a local zoo, feeding nearly distinct whales in the Alps, or anything far removed from the purpose of PP, you may be better off in posting your question elsewhere.
Last:
Everybody has to learn, has the right to ask questions and be helped.
If everybody has the decency to pose their urgent, life threatening or other questions in a detailed, structured and comprehensible way, it will vastly improve the chances of speedy and helpful replies, without the need for sarcasm, bundles of to-and-fro posts without meaningful help, just wasting bandwidth.
I know I have been rightly accused of such behavior, which was the result of sheer frustration with absolutely meaningless and often pointless questions without details, structure and the like. Maybe this can be a general guideline for posters on how to ask questions, in addition to Eddie's links and How to ask questions the smart way
The most frustrating issues one can encounter are hangs, BSOD's (blue screens of death), system errors and other cases of seemingly random erros that require rebooting, restarting or similar actions, only to be confronted with the next hang, BSOD or system crash.
These errors are often difficult to locate, due to the large variety of systems, components and driver or software versions in use. This is often further aggravated by sheer lack of expertise, understanding of what needs to be communicated in order for others to help solve the issue at hand. And that list is very long.
So, in order to make it a bit simpler for the average user who encounters these problems, follow the following steps when posting a problem:
1. Clearly describe the main problem in the topic, but be brief. Not so brief as to only say: "Help!" or "URGENT" or another meaningless statement but get to the point, like: "PP crashes on opening, requiring a reboot" or "Using DL the system hangs upon return to PP". You get the point.
2. Briefly describe your hardware, software, OS and versions in use, including disk setup, video card and driver versions, etc.
3. Describe source material, including codec (not AVI, which is not a codec), project settings and other relevant info.
4. Describe as accurately as possible what you did, what steps you took, what happened at what moment and what you did to try to resolve it.
5. Go to Start/Run, type in DXDIAG, enter and save all information to a TXT file. Include a link to that file in your post.
6. Go to Start/Run, type in MSINFO32 (or similar for 64 bit OS), enter and save the results as a .NFO file. Include a link to that file in your post.
7. Download Process Explorer , and either post a screen shot or a link to the results.
8. Make a screen shot of the results of SpeedFan or HW Monitor and include that in your post.
When you perform these basic steps, you avoid endless questions about your system and people may be able to help you faster.
If you feel up to it, take a look at The Case of the Unexplained to start your own troubleshooting.
Hope this helps to post more meaningful questions and get an answer much quicker.

BW Implementation Approach

Hi Guys,
I am looking for the ASAP Paper on BW Implementation Approach. Which details at length how do we go about implementating it. With R/3 implementation together or after R/3. Cant find it on Sapnet though.
Can anyone help me with the link please ?
Cheers
Kirk

Hi Kirk,
As for the timing, BW in itself can function without a SAP environment all together as it could be implemented into any Landscape. With or After R3? Well with is always a better approach seeing that MasterData issues could be resolved at an early stage. Another reason is for modeling purposes. There are so many variables to consider that depending on the landscape and the future development and modules that you will be implementing it could go any route.
Personal suggestion based on experience is to do it with the R3 implementation, but in rythm with the implementation. Keep in mind that the whole architechture of BW Modelling needs to adapt to all the different source systems - you probably know this - and that this could really influence the decission on when what will be done.
If you do find that ASAP papare you are looking for, plz drop me a msg...

Caz

Microsoft Guidelines for SCCM Proof of Concept

Where can I find the Microsoft Guidelines for Microsoft Proof of Concept for SCCM 2012 R2.
Some of the point I remember are as follows:
POC should be done in Lab and not in production.
POC not to be include any specific customization.
At times customers want to include everything specific to their environment which is not possible in limited time we have for POCs (5-10 days). Where can we show them the guidelines for that? All the customizations they have may take 1-2 months to test and
deliver.
They generally say that all customizations must be provided in POC as they are paying for the project. But actually it is Microsoft paying for that. Just want to know how others deal with such situations.

You need to make your costumer understand that a Proof-of-Concept is exactly what it Means - It proves to the customer that this product can deliver what they need. That does not mean that you have to implement every possible feature in ConfigMgr 2012 and
configure advanced OSD TS´s etc.
Compile a long list of demos, features and functionality and let the customer choose which ones they would like to "examine" in their PoC. When you have tried this a few times you sort of know how long it takes to implement whatever they want.
And just like Gerry - I do not know of any guidance documents from Microsoft either.

Sizing Guideline for Sourcing 7.0

Hello,
I have read the Sizing Guideline for Sourcing 7.0 in the Installation Guide. For a small installation (less than 50 concurrent users) SAP is recommending the following:
App Server - Quad Core Processor, 16 GB
DB Server - Quad Core Processor, 16 GB
Having done WAS JAVA sizing for quite sometime, I feel this is on a very higher side. In our implementation we will have max 10 concurrent users. So I feel the following should be good enough
App + DB Server - Dual Core Processor, 8 GB
As per my exp, 1core and 4GB will be for OS and DB, remaining 1core and 4 GB for 1 CE Server Node.
I request all the experienced people please suggest if this will work. If not please share some rational so that I can convince the customer rationally without saying thats minimum recommendation from SAP
Regards,
Jai

Jai,
Optimizer can be on same server as of contract generation, CG use very little memory as its only service used to created document for CLM. but it should be on different server other than E-Sourcing server
E-Sourcing can work without optimizer also, Its is prefered where there are complex bid responses or large no of response are there.

Guidelines for when to use SE vs. EE

Are there any guidelines for when to use Standard Edition and when to use Enterprise Edition? Any limits on Standard edition as far as transactions/sec or number of users or size of database? Other than a list features that are not included in SE are there any other limitiations or reasons I should not go with SE over EE?

Have you checked out www.javaworld.com. They usually have very good and in-depth articles. IMHO, it all depends on the sort of use your library is intended for. If its used extensively by native code, use C++ with a Java wrapper. It its the other way around, implement it in Java and use a JNI interface for native code.

Implementing OAM - SSO for Multiple Applications

I am trying to implement OAM - SSO for 2 applications. I already have completed the setup of SSO for one application . OID -- OAM -- OHS ( 11g webgate ) - Weblogic Server - OBIEE . ( All the components are 11.1.1.5 version ).
Now I am looking to add a 2nd application ( OBIEE 11.1.1.6.5 version ) into the mix. So should I install a separate OHS and webgate for the new application or can I use the existing OHS to add another application.
Any tips on this would be helpful please.
Thanks

You may use the same OHS server in reverse proxy to the two applications and configure corresponding policies in OAM console.
Let us know if you get into any issues.

Can I migrate from WCS 7.0 to PI 1.2. If so, what are the guidelines for migration?

Can I migrate from WCS 7.0 to PI 1.2. If so, what are the guidelines for migration? Do we have any Instructions/steps?

Migration from WCS 7.0 to PI 1.2 can be performed. If the customer wants to migrate data you need to first upgrade to NCS 1.1.1 You can download NCS 1.1.1 from Cisco.com if you have a valid service contract.
For the migration step involving NCS an evaluation license is sufficient. You can obtain an NCS evaluation license from http://www.cisco.com/go/license > Get Demo > Network Mgmt Products > Cisco Prime NCS Evaluation License.
Instructions for migrating data from WCS 7.0 to NCS 1.1.1 are available in NCS 1.1.1 Release Notes. Do not upgrade to NCS 1.1.2 as this release is not upgradeable to Prime Infrastructure 1.2. If you are ordering a Cisco Prime physical appliance (PRIME-NCS-APL-K9) be sure to select the NCS 1.1 image which you can later upgrade to Prime Infrastructure 1.2 after you have migrated your WCS data.
There is a post in the support forum which can be refered.
