گارنتر: وب 2 فرصت‌هاي زيادي براي رشد شركت‌ها فراهم كرده است

گارنتر: وب 2 فرصت‌هاي زيادي براي رشد شركت‌ها فراهم كرده است

 

سرويس خبر شبکه آنلاين 


شركت تحقيقاتي گارتنر مي‌گويد وب 2 فرصت‌هاي بسياري را براي رشد شركت‌ها فراهم كرده اما تعداد كمي از آنها قادر به انطباق سريع با فضاي جديد هستند.

سرويس خبر شبكه آنلاين – نتايج يك مطالعه پژوهشي جديد كه از سوي شركت گارنتر انجام شده نشان مي‌دهد كه موج جديد تحولات عرصه وب كه به وب 2 معروف شده فرصت‌هاي بسياري را براي رشد شركت‌ها در اختيار آنان قرارمي‌دهد ولي تعداد اندكي از آنها قادر خواهند بود شيوه كنوني فعاليت‌ خود را با مدل‌هاي جديد كسب و كار در فضاي وب 2 انطباق دهند.

گارنتر كه نتايج اين تحقيق را در سمپوزيوم ITXpo در سانفرانسيسكو ارائه كرد در توضيح درباره دلايل اين مساله مي‌‌گويد: تا سال 2008 اكثر هزار شركت تجاري برتر جهان با جنبه‌هاي تكنيكي مختلف عرصه وب 2 آشنايي پيدا كرده و آن را در كسب و كار خود به‌كار خواهند گرفت اما اغلب آنها در جذب و درك جنبه‌هاي اجتماعي وب 2 بسيار كند خواهند بود و از اين رو پيامدهاي مثبت روي آوردن به سمت وب 2 براي آنان به كندي رخ خواهد داد.

وب 2 مجموعه‌اي از رويكردهاي جديد در فضاي اينترنت به سمت مدل‌هاي توسعه باز، انعطاف‌پذير و مشاركت‌جو براي سيستم‌هاي توليد محتوا است كه مي تواند به كاهش هزينه‌هاي توليد و پردازش اطلاعات، افزايش آگاهي عمومي و افزايش كارايي سيستم‌ها منجر شود.

وب 2 هم داراي جنبه‌هاي فني و هم داراي جنبه‌هاي اجتماعي و فرهنگي است . موضوعاتي همچون مدل‌هاي جديد كار و حضور در وب، مشاركت بيشتر كاربران در توليد محتوا ، شفافيت بيشتر در گردش اطلاعات ، سهولت بيشتر در طراحي اينترفيس و قابليت‌هاي نرم‌افزار ، و تمركز زدايي از مهمترين جنبه‌هاي غير تکنيکي هستند كه در فرآيند تكوين و تحول موج وب 2 به مراتب مهم‌تر و اثرگذارترند.

به گفته گارتنر در حالي كه مي‌توان به سادگي با افزودن RSS و Ajax به محصولات نرم‌افزاري، آنها را به جنبه‌هاي تكنيكي وب 2 مجهز كرد، افزودن قابليت‌هاي فرهنگي و اجتماعي وب به خدمات آنلاين آسان نيست.

ديويد ميشل، نائب رئيس گارتنر در اين رابطه گفت: افزودن اين قابليت‌هاي جديد نيازمند نوانديشي و تفكر دوباره در طراحي سيستم‌ها و مخاطب احتمالي آنهاست. بنابراين پوشيدن لباس وب 2 چيزي بيش از بزك كردن اينترفيس نرم‌افزارها با فناوري هايي همچون اي‌جكس است زيرا رويكرد به سمت چنين عرصه‌اي ممكن است نيازمند ايجاد تغييراتي در زيرساخت كسب وكار سازمان ها و بازتعريف ماموريت و رسالتي كه شركت‌ها براي خود قائل هستند باشد.

	The Big Switch: Rewiring the World, from Edison to Google
	An eye-opening look at the new computer revolution and the coming transformation of our economy, society, and culture. A hundred years ago, companies stopped producing their own power with steam engines and generators and plugged into the newly built electric grid. The cheap power pumped out by electric utilities not only changed how businesses operated but also brought the modern world into existence. Today a similar revolution is under way. Companies are dismantling their private computer systems and tapping into rich services delivered over the Internet. This time it's computing that's turning into a utility. The shift is already remaking the computer industry, bringing new competitors like Google to the fore and threatening traditional stalwarts like Microsoft and Dell. But the effects will reach much further. Cheap computing will ultimately change society as profoundly as cheap electricity did. In this lucid and compelling book, Nicholas Carr weaves together history, economics, and technology to explain why computing is changing—and what it means for all of us.

	Grid Resource Management: State of the Art and Future Trends
	Edited by Jarek Nabrzyski, Jennifer M. Schopf, Jan Weglarz Springer; 1 edition (September, 2003) Grid Resource Management: State of the Art and Future Trends presents an overview of the state of the field and describes both the real experiences and the current research available today. Grid computing is a rapidly developing and changing field, involving the shared and coordinated use of dynamic, multi-institutional resources. Grid resource management is the process of identifying requirements, matching resources to applications, allocating those resources, and scheduling and monitoring Grid resources over time in order to run Grid applications as efficiently as possible. While Grids have become almost commonplace, the use of good Grid resource management tools is far from ubiquitous because of the many open issues of the field, including the multiple layers of schedulers, the lack of control over resources, the fact that resources are shared, and that users and administrators have conflicting performance goals. These are the issues addressed in this book, in addition to elucidating the overlap with related areas including discussions of work with peer-to-peer computing, economic approaches, and operations research. Grid Resource Management: State of the Art and Future Trends is an invaluable resource for today's user, application developer, or resource owners when working with Grid resource management systems.

	Supplying Instantaneous Video-on-Demand Services Based on Grid Computing
	It is impossible to satisfy the infinite rapid-increasing requirements with finite addition of servers and bandwidth in the traditional VOD (Video-on-Demand) system. In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid Grid-type architecture to resolve this problem. By taking advantage of the large storage and the powerful processing capability in current client-side devices, user host serves both as a client and as a mini video server, and the system capability is enhanced due to the contribution of user hosts. This VOD system not only benefits from the secure and efficient organization in Grid computing, but also benefits from the flexibility and scalability in peer-to-peer models. In order to reach an optimal utility factor of system resources, an adaptive video delivery policy is implemented in this system. By cooperating with each other, the relevant servers can supply instantaneous video services for local users.

	Enterprise Integration Patterns
	This is a book about enterprise integration using messaging. It does not document any particular technology or product. Rather, it is designed for developers and integrators using a variety of messaging products and technologies, such as Message-oriented middleware (MOM) and EAI suites offered by vendors such as IBM (WebSphere MQ Family), Microsoft (BizTalk), TIBCO, WebMethods, SeeBeyond, Vitria, and others. Java Message Service (JMS) implementations incorporated into commercial and open source J2EE application servers as well as standalone products. Microsoft's Message Queuing (MSMQ), accessible through several APIs, including the System.Messaging libraries in Microsoft .NET. Emerging Web services standards that support asynchronous Web services (for example, WS-ReliableMessaging) and the associated APIs such as Sun Microsystems' Java API for XML Messaging (JAXM) or Microsoft's Web Services Extensions (WSE). Enterprise integration goes beyond creating a single application with a distributed n -tier architecture, which enables a single application to be distributed across several computers. Whereas one tier in a distributed application cannot run by itself, integrated applications are independent programs that can each run by themselves, yet that function by coordinating with each other in a loosely coupled way.

	Resilient Storage Networks: Designing Flexible Scalable Data Infrastructures
	A resilient storage network is an environment where data is always available for the needs of the business. This book explains the components, as well as how to design and implement a resilient storage network for workgroup, departmental, and enterprise environments. Storage networks are an enabling capability combining technology and best practices to provide the foundation to support information technology systems and applications. Storage networks can be of various sizes, shapes, and technologies. This book shows you how to implement a resilient storage network infrastructure using different technologies including ATM, DWDM, FCIP, Fibre Channel, FICON, iFCP, InfiniBand, IP, iSCSI, Life Cycle Management, NAS, Object Based Storage, RAID, RDMA, Remote Mirroring, Replication, SAN, SCSI, SMI-S, SONET/SDH, Storage Services, Tape, Virtualization, and Volume Managers.

	Does IT Matter?
	Information Technology (IT) has transformed itself from a source of competitive advantage to simply being a cost of doing business. Despite the spectacular gains during the past 50 years, says Nicholas G. Carr, a former Harvard Business Review executive editor, IT will distinguish no single competitor. This contradicts many executives' perception that IT ubiquity is an advantage. They miss the point the scarcity, not ubiquity, creates an advantage. IT's core functions - the storage, distribution and processing of data - are available to all. Without differentiation IT is relegated to commodity status. This should force executives to re-think their IT spending plans and their vendor relationships. As this perception gains acceptance, risk and cost control will become more important than investments in innovation. In short, technology is headed down the same path the steam engine, railroad and electricity followed. Only by becoming a shared and standardized resource will IT deliver its maximum social and economic potential.

	IEEE on Grid

	Enterprise Grid Computing with Oracle
	"This book is an excellent source of pragmatic guidance on how users can realize real benefits from adopting Grid Computing today while addressing their pressing business needs and leveraging their current IT investments." Thomas Kurian, Senior Vice President, Oracle Server Technologies "Finally, here is a single reference point that articulates the business value and needs of Enterprise Grid Computing that will enable the CIO, CFO, Business Unit leaders, and technical implementers to all talk in a common language. There should be no more mysteries or doubts of the benefits of establishing an IT Grid." Vernon Turner, Group Vice President and General Manager, Enterprise Computing, IDC

	Who Runs What in the Global Information Grid: Ways to Share Local and Global Responsibility
	Traditionally, information provided to warfighters only gave them broadsituational awareness. Today, information from sensors and databases can help warfighters target past what they can see. This has prompted the Department of Defense (DoD) to build a military analog to the Internet, to be a font of warfighting information (and system services). But how should responsibility for providing information and services be sharedbetween global external sources and organic local sources?

	Performance Analysis and Grid Computing
	Performance Analysis and Grid Computing comprises selected contributions encapsulating this scientifically rich event. The articles are organized in three parts: Performance Modeling and Analysis, Performance Tools and Systems, and Grid Performance and Applications.

	Enterprise Service BUS
	Large IT organizations increasingly face the challenge of integrating various web services, applications, and other technologies into a single network. The solution to finding a meaningful large-scale architecture that is capable of spanning a global enterprise appears to have been met in ESB, or Enterprise Service Bus. Rather than conform to the hub-and-spoke architecture of traditional enterprise application integration products, ESB provides a highly distributed approach to integration, with unique capabilities that allow individual departments or business units to build out their integration projects in incremental, digestible chunks, maintaining their own local control and autonomy, while still being able to connect together each integration project into a larger, more global integration fabric, or grid.

To the outside world, a "supercomputer" appears to be a single system. In fact, it's a cluster of computers that share a local area network and have the ability to work together on a single problem as a team. Many businesses used to consider supercomputing beyond the reach of their budgets, but new Linux applications have made high-performance clusters more affordable than ever. These days, the promise of low-cost supercomputing is one of the main reasons many businesses choose Linux over other operating systems. This new guide covers everything a newcomer to clustering will need to plan, build, and deploy a high-performance Linux cluster. The book focuses on clustering for high-performance computation, although much of its information also applies to clustering for high-availability (failover and disaster recovery). The book discusses the key tools you'll need to get started, including good practices to use while exploring the tools and growing a system. You'll learn about planning, hardware choices, bulk installation of Linux on multiple systems, and other basic considerations. Then, you'll learn about software options that can save you hours--or even weeks--of deployment time. Since a wide variety of options exist in each area of clustering software, the author discusses the pros and cons of the major free software projects and chooses those that are most likely to be helpful to new cluster administrators and programmers. A few of the projects introduced in the book include:
— MPI, the most popular programming library for clusters. This book offers simple but realistic introductory examples along with some pointers for advanced use. — OSCAR and Rocks, two comprehensive installation and administrative systems — openMosix (a convenient tool for distributing jobs), Linux kernel extensions that migrate processes transparently for load balancing — PVFS, one of the parallel filesystems that make clustering I/O easier — C3, a set of commands for administering multiple systems Ganglia, OpenPBS, and cloning tools (Kickstart, SIS and G4U) are also covered. The book looks at cluster installation packages (OSCAR & Rocks) and then considers the core packages individually for greater depth or for folks wishing to do a custom installation. Guidelines for debugging, profiling, performance tuning, and managing jobs from multiple users round out this immensely useful book
