The latest 2013 version of SharePoint is collaborated server resolving Microsoft’s all-purpose enterprise issues. It encapsulates many enhanced features, including redesigned user interface, SkyDrive Pro for increased storage and documents synchronization, improved task management, renovated search engine and creative e- discovery features.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As a content management and enterprise collaboration tool, SharePoint has reached to matured status. Enterprises primarily use SharePoint to build public sites, intranets, blogs and wikis even for searching and arranging documents, storing documents. It is generating around 2 billion annual revenue and Microsoft is pushing hard this latest version.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With more feasible alternatives to SharePoint dynamically coming to market, there exist certain challenges those need to be resolved by Microsoft.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>SharePoint mobile challenges</b> Mobility is the need of the hour and workplace is totally entrenched by Smartphones and Tablets. Getting mobile access to enterprise application has become indispensable. According to reviews, Microsoft has not focused much on <a href="http://www.a1technology.com/sharepoint_consulting.htm" target="_blank">SharePoint integration</a> and mobility, In fact there is no sense of urgency around it and it is confounding.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
SharePoint News Feed Application is provided by Microsoft, which is designed to give users access to people and documents they consider.Currently this facility is available on iOS and Windows Phone. At the end of the second calendar quarter, Windows 8 version is due which will have deeper integration of SharePoint mobile and later on Android. These apps are not much broader in their scope and functionality. You can implement only the part of SharePoint offers with this.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>SharePoint social media challenges</b> SharePoint’s enterprise social networking capabilities were incapable and this fact was revealed by Microsoft’s decision taken last summer to plunk down 1.2 billion for Yammer. And further, to make up for that Microsoft has banked upon third party add ons from companies. Takeup of SharePoint Online is a matter of concern as the cloud hosted version of the product is not up to the par.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Competitors list is increasing its number including IBM, Jive Software and Box, and Google. Despite of its enthusiastic success in enterprise, situation is entirely changed, and SharePoint must prove its worth all over again.</div>

Instead of developing mobile apps for the rigid platform, Cloud computing has made developing applications much flexible. Cloud computing encompasses on demand availability of the storage, software and processing power. It is embedded with device independence, reliability, ease in access, security and least required maintenance.
Cloud computing services have become easy to reach for all enterprises that deliver compatible and resilient services to employees and customers with enhanced business agility.</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
Bringing the cloud computing services to the mobile environment is termed as Mobile cloud computing. It consolidates the elements of cloud computing and mobile networks, providing excellent services to mobile
users. In mobile cloud computing, powerful mobile configuration is not much required since all the entangled and complicated computing modules are processed in the cloud itself.</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
It is the amalgamation between cloud computing and mobile network offering optimal applicability for mobile users. Rather than keeping on individual devices when data is kept on internet, cloud computing exists there providing on demand access.</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
<b>Security aspect of Mobile cloud computing </b></div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
One of the key issues that most of the cloud providers are considering is securing user protection and integration of application data. As mobile cloud computing is a combinational field of cloud computing
and mobile networks, the security related matters are categorized as: mobile networks user’s security and cloud security.</div>
<div align="JUSTIFY">
<ul align="JUSTIFY">
<li><b>Mobile network user’s security –</b> Different mobile handsets such as Smartphones, laptops, PDA’s and cellular phones are well aware of the numerous security instability and vulnerabilities such as malicious codes. Some cloud computing applications can prompt to security breaches as these devices troubling the user ultimately. Two main issues regarding subscriber’s security are: <br /><ol align="JUSTIFY">
<li>The best way of capturing security vulnerability is to run security software and anti-virus programs on mobile devices. Mobile devices are litigated with processing limitations which is why securing them from these threats could be more hazardous as compared to regular computers. Number of approaches can be developed transferring vulnerability detection and protection mechanism to the cloud. The application must handover to the user after it passes through some level of threat evaluation. All file activities before sending to the user need to be verified if it is malicious or not.</li>
<li>Scenarios are created for privacy issues when personal information such as your current location or user’s hidden information is revealed.</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li><b>Information secured on the clouds</b> – Enterprise and individuals both take the bonanza of storing large amount of data in the cloud.
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<ol>
<li>The integrity of the information stored on the cloud must be properly ensured by the user. Every user access must be authenticated. Different approaches can be proposed ensuring integrity of the information stored on the cloud.</li>
<li>Numerous authorization mechanism have been proposed with the means of cloud computing in order to secure the data access. Some make use of open standards and support the integrity of the various authorization methods.</li>
</ol>

Open source technology is considered as production and development a trend that allows end users and developers to go through the source code and can even modify it. Although, open source is not only product enforced by open source licenses rather is most popular, stepping well to manipulation of its code and add- ons.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The times you create a web site, chances are you are using a web browser. The cost of using out of line products can add up, especially when trying to enhance your business. This article emphasize on some top open source options for you to consider.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li><b>PHP – </b>Stated as personal home page, PHP is a strong storage for many message boards. Proprietary Softwares can be used but you need to pay licensing fees and updation fees. Using single site doesn’t calls for compulsive fees but if browsing different sites your cost can become significant part of your budget. Internet provides with some free providers, you need to search for it.</li>
<li><b>Email client –</b> Thunderbird is the project developed by the brand who brought Firefox to the market. Using Thunderbird you can stop SPAM, send and receive Emails, and add plugins to design the program as per your requirement. </li>
<li><b>Web templates –</b> There are number of sites offering some exceptionally well designed templates that is even reasonable to purchase separately. Everyone downloads copies but you can make changes in it accordingly to give it your own look. Best amongst all is CSS derived and web standard compliant.</li>
<li><b>Office software –</b> MS office dominates as WordPerfect hardly hangs on. Even then there are ways out to these two productivity suites in the form of openoffice.org. Another grand freebie associated with this site is the *pdf maker, saving heavy amount on Adobe acrobat purchase.</li>
<li><b>Web browsers – </b> Gone are the days when only internet explorer was the only name suggested for internet browsing. Infact they are dormant but many web folks are not willing with Microsoft’s dominance and most of them are switching to Firefox, Opera, Netscape and Safari.</li>
</ul>

Facebook graph search is a search engine which is designed to respond user query. The search engine acquires collective data from over one billion users and external sources in order to serve users with best possible search result.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But now Facebook is stretching arms by taking preventive measures for the user protection. Facebook is slowing down its move to a tool that let user search out others by personal information or by common interest. This new idea emphasis on special minor security. Social network is implementing specific graph search rules for teenagers.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In January Facebook launched graph search in beta. As a social network search engine it offers various new ways to uncover friends, photos, places those are saved in this big pool of Facebook. But its other side exposes personal information that should strictly not be revealed.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to the new rules if a minor is searching, only friend and friends of friends between the ages 13 to 17 will be shown. If an adult does a search that could display a minor’s age or location, the only result that comes is that person’s friend. Details like birthdays, school, and hometown will be only available about users under 18 years to their friends and friends of friends. But yes, the minors will be secured only if they provide their correct age to Facebook.<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But privacy consultants are worried. Though the new Graph Search will not display any unwanted or prohibited information and put all the data together at one place that could be used awfully. Graph search has currently been available only to some handful testers. And Facebook will keep on fine tuning the tool as it rolls out.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Organizations
have often faced lot of hassles while developing and testing </span></span></span><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">web
applications. It has been seen time and again that traditional
roadblocks like cost, lack of process, scalability and methodology
often hinder the successful deployment of an application. Often done
at a project level, these actions remain underutilized and
under-resourced. There is a huge demand for substantial
infrastructure and flexible management of resources to undertake a
large scale project.</span></span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">There
are various variables that account for unpredictable operations,
gradual building of capacity and optimal utilization. Although it is
a crucial IT function and many administrators understand the
inability to provide the scale and flexibility for development and
testing teams, it often delays the application development life cycle
and hampers the delivery of an application.</span></span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">In
order to overcome all these hurdles, a cloud based developmental
model can be undertaken to match the highly dynamic and resource
intensive needs of the application development and testing. The pace
of technology is moving at a rapid pace and developmental teams need
to be flexible and agile in order to incorporate new ideas and
functions in deploying an application.</span></span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Cloud-based
development offers immediate deployment of application without
upfront infrastructure cost which can be up-scaled or downsized as
per requirement. <a href="http://www.a1technology.com/mobile_app_development.htm" target="_blank">Mobile application development</a> can be taken to a
whole new level while incorporating with cloud computing. It changes
the whole scenario and the way an application is developed, tested
and deployed.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">One
of the biggest advantages of undertaking cloud-based resources is
that it enhances the competitive edge over the competition of
maintaining their own data center without any additional cost input.
It also provides testing teams with a self service model from a pool
of shared but secure infrastructure resources. By making configurable
templates, they can run them in parallel with the development team
and customize it as per a particular project.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">It
is an hybrid solution which gives enhanced ID and access control to
safeguard data. By automating approval work-flows and encapsulating
infrastructure management it reduces the cost as well as time taken
to develop an application.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-style: normal;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">However
for any enterprise or business to undertake cloud computing
development, there are some consideration that ought to be kept in
mind. Control and Security, Overall performance, Real time monitoring
of development, Operational management should be foreseen in order to
ensure that there are no hindrances. In this competitive environment,
success only embraces those who are able to incorporate new
technology to have an edge over the others.</span></span></span></span></span></div>

Facebook launched its own Facebook App
Center back in June. Since then it has seen 150 million users coming
to Facebook App Center. This app center was launch with a goal of
making app search for mobile users more relevant. It is also
described as the way to solve the crisis of app discovery faced by
Android and iOS developers. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://www.a1technology.com/facebook_application.htm" target="_blank">Facebook apps developers</a> also cleared
the air by saying that Facebook app center is not promoting Facebook
apps only, though it is promoting all general mobile apps. The
Android apps and iOS apps available on Facebook App Center have
Facebook integration for buying or downloading the app to their
devices. User’s direct login to Facebook App center via Facebook
has increases Facebook’s own engagement with maximum users
especially among mobile users.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
This is also joyous news for <a href="http://www.a1technology.com/iphone/" target="_blank">iPhoneapps developers</a> and Android apps developers. Now, all small and mid
sized development companied also has a chance to be the star that is
why they are using various combinations of curations and search
algorithms to come in the few hundred list of Facebook. New App
Center is only picking few hundred mass appealing and quality apps
for its huge mobile audience. </div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: justify;">
But still it does not exposure what it
deserves. It has a long way to go. We can say that Facebook App
Center is bit underrated. Users and Android/ iOS developers actually
have not realized the profit that can be generated by the new App
Store. Now, the success of Facebook’s though for its mobile
audience is only in hands of its developers and users. Let’s see
how much users consider it useful.</div>

<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The HTML5 based mobile development has
gone mainstream. There is no exact reason behind the sheer
inclination of enterprises towards HTML5 platform. One could say it
is the luring promises made by the HTML5 for solving the problems
currently faced by the enterprises these days in offering high end
mobile solutions.
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Moreover, the continuing battle between
mobile platforms for market share has forced many companies to cater
services for more than one platform, i.e. at least two or possibly
more than that. Development of native mobile applications allows very
little reuse of code because all the platforms are very different. As
a result, supporting all multiple mobile platforms can incur three
times the cost for development of an application.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Therefore, it is said that <a href="http://www.a1technology.com/html5.htm" target="_blank">HTML5 development</a> has answers to all these hurdles. It is because all
three major mobile platforms allow for embedded web components, HTML5
components can be easily shared among all available platforms.
However, a basic HTML5 app can be simply built with HTML, CSS and
Javascript, many companies want some host connectivity which make use
of the existing servers.
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-size: small;">In the web technology world, there has
been long debates over merits of HTML5 application development over
native application development. In the end, it is concluded that each
way of development has its own merits and demerits. Therefore, if you
are going for <a href="http://www.a1technology.com/html5.htm" target="_blank">HTML5 web development Services</a> you must think it
with a different perspective from traditional web application.</span></div>A-1 Technologyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14529969421380072406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6535109.post-82451751843196713312012-06-19T12:54:00.001-05:002012-06-19T13:00:17.024-05:00MS Dynamics AX 2012 with Ms Dynamic CRM for Better Performance<style type="text/css">

Google is hopeful that the new Android Market client displays top apps and games in a more effective manner, as it boasts an enhanced UI and more functional download and purchase processes. Apart from this, it also will let the developers to experience better ways to market and merchandise their apps.<br /><br /><br />Some of the innovative features of the new Android Market client are a new homescreen promotional page created to feature top content, instant access to apps and games. Moreover, the page also connects users to books and movies. Whats even more exciting is that the Apps and Games pages will now include Top Paid, Top Free, Top Grossing, Top New Paid, Top New Free and Trending lists. In order to offer a more appropriate consumer experience, Google will make each list country specific. <br /><br /><br />Android market now also boasts a brand new app details page, which make it possible to move the name and price into an action bar at the top. Furthermore, the users will now be able to go through screen shots, scroll down to read the description of the app, add more information, reviews and related data or click a thumbnail link to screen a product video that displays in fullscreen mode when the device is in landscape orientation.<br /><br /><br />A more streamlined click-to-purchase flow that allows two-click transactions from the app details page is presented by the new Android Market client, when users decide to purchase an application. The Android Market also works to enhance cross-sell opportunities by presenting a list of other apps available from the same developer to the user , when he purchases an app. <br />In other developments, Google is striving hard to move the Android Market update to smartphones running Android 2.2 and above. It's a matter of another few weeks and the update might reach all phones. <br /><br /><br />At present, there are over 250,000 apps being offered by Android Market.

That's why it recently unwrapped its new updated look, apart from unveiling Plus One, the Plus social network and the recent PageRank update. Speculations are strong that Google is planning to unveil a social network via Google+. It is unsure whether this strategy of Google will work or not.<br /><br /><br />One thing is absolutely clear that Google is aiming at taking over the popularity of Face book and become the big social players themselves. Though Google refuses to admit it, but insiders have said that the project is even called “Googbook” internally. <br /><br /><br />Before Facebook had taken over, it was Google's Orkut which used to triumph its music on web. But Google has pretty much information regarding the visitors on orkut, who can now acquire their own social opinions called +1 which helps quality websites climb up the pages. But practically seeing, it should not act as a hurdle for highly successful Facebook. Though Google+ has got an excellent response from everywhere, at the end of the day, its about an individual's own choice. Those who are addicted to FB will still remain its fan. <br /><br /><br />Also it would be hard for anyone to give up over 500 friends and 1000 tagged pics just to switch over to some other social site, even if benefits are larger. However, lets not conclude that Google+ wont have any following. One can have two accounts on different social networking sites. Apart from this, Google+ does offer quite a lot of attractive features like connections not requiring to be two-way, eradicating any clutter from people you don’t actually care about in your stream. Apart from this, it will be pretty amazing to watch how Google advertises with the aim of showing Facebook stars in daytime. But there still lies a possibility that once the initial excitement fades out, Facebook might prevail again.<br /><br /> <br />Now let us give the comparison between Google and FB a backseat and rather talk about the innovative features of Google+. Overall, it's a very simple interface, notifications are great, interactions like hanging out voice chat etc are commendable. As of now, its on BETA, but it wouldn't be wrong to say that the version is much better than many other unveiled by Google in past.</p>A-1 Technologyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14529969421380072406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6535109.post-60420161265658880892011-07-01T05:49:00.002-05:002011-07-01T05:54:58.320-05:00Symantec calls Apple's iOS more secure than Google's Android<p align="justify">Recently, Symantic came out with its latest report, in which it ranked Apple's iOS as more secure in comparison to Google's Android. The report dubbed "A Window Into Mobile Device Security," includes 23 pages, in which the security approaches used by Apple and Google in its mobile operating systems are described. Apart from this, the report also emphasizes the past and possible future holes found in the iOS and Android platforms.<br /><br />The report made close comparisons of both the platforms and reached on the conclusion that iOS offers full protection against malware attacks, while its counterpart offers only a little.<br /><br />The report also ranked iOS higher than Android for protection against resource abuse and service attacks, data loss, and data integrity attacks. Moving further, even the fields like access control, application provenance, and encryption were found to be more securely protected by iOS.<br /><br />Isolation was the only security category, in which Google's Android was termed as better than iOS. Android received highest marks for this category, while iOS was told to offer moderate protection.<br /><br />On the whole, the report by Symantec credited the provenance approach of Apple for building a steady security barrier. This because all of the apps, before getting launched on the App store has to undergo vetting procedures. The report said that this avoids malware attacks, data loss attacks, data integrity attacks, and denial of service attacks.<br /><br />While coming over to Android, Symantec pointed out two major weaknesses in it. The report said, “First, the provenance system in place enables attackers to anonymously create and distribute malware. In addition, its permission system relies upon the user to make the important security decisions, and considering most of Android users are not of high technical capability, this causes problems.” <br /><br />But the report did term Google's mobile operating system as an enormous improvement over traditional desktop operating systems.</p>A-1 Technologyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14529969421380072406noreply@blogger.com
