It's time for IBM to launch several models such as promised. The first model launched with the new processor with eight cores (and each core has one 8MB of L3 cache) is called the Power 750 Express with a starting price of U.S. $ 34 000 and Power 780 top model has up to 8 processors 3.8 GHz or 4.1 GHz (the latter with "only" four cores per processor) supports up to 2TB of RAM and up to 24 SSD drives - all at an unannounced price yet, probably because excessive number of zeros in the queue.

Storage as a Service is demand storage solutions with which companies in Romania can get control of storage capacity, distribution and retrieval of data, regardless of where they are. Available on-demand storage solutions allow customers to use the available infrastructure Star Data Center S. scalable depending on the needs at a cost of 0.26 Euro / GB / month (storage solutions for large data volumes, disks at 7200 RPM ) or 0.70 Euro / GB / month (high performance storage solutions, disk at 15,000 RPM). In both storage space is available on SAN storage systems, high performance and availability of partners Star Storage, EMC and Hitachi Data Systems (HDS). Star S. storage solutions include hardware, software and management services, support and technical expertise 24 × 7 × 365, multiple levels of security, SLA based services. "In the current economic climate, purchases of new hardware and software technologies needed to develop their own data storage infrastructure must pass the acid test of the main financial indicators, ROI (Return On Investment) and TCO (Total Cost of Ownership). On the other hand, increasing the amount of data stored and the time they should be kept online, high costs of space and facilities to host an IT intrastructuri and compliance with regulations are some of the engines of this new business model - "Storage as a Service".

New Power Efficiency Estimator is designed to help data center center operators compare different scenarios of power topologies and technologies within their facility. It takes factors such as workload, availability, and space constraints, so that they can generate a report to improve decision making in a facility. Energy Efficiency Estimator will be available by the end of the first quarter of 2010. The new PUE Calculator allows data center operators to introduce specific data at specified intervals to determine PUE. Power usage efficiency (PUE) is a measurement that determines the amount of energy used by IT installation and tools within it. PUE Calculator will be available by the end of the first quarter of 2010. This article provides new guidance on how operators can maximize the power of professional datacenter cooling and power savings in a data center environment using virtualization to achieve its consolidation strategy.

Gone on sale in November appeared network cards, AT-2973SX and AT-2973T, the first network card Allied Telesis portfolio for servers running virtual machines. AT-2973 products improve network efficiency and increasing system performance by sharing the resources. Operating system to create the virtual machine is complex, and while chipsets have seen a radical improvement to cope with the trends of virtualization, further creating a virtual machine is a challenge. Queue mechanism significantly reduces the performance of virtual machines under the CPU solve tasks of assembly and disassembly of incoming messages in a single queue redirecting data to the correct virtual machine. To resolve this minus AT-2973 increases the speed of "throughput" of data received and the distribution process, allowing each virtual machine to establish its own queue. AT-2973SX has two 1000SX fiber ports, and four PCIe NIC virtualization lines, AT-2973T has two 1000T copper ports, PCIe and four lines for virtual NIC. Both network cards are capable of MSI-x (Message Signal Interrupt), offering an alternative method of interrupting host processor to manage multiple queues, one for each virtual machine - thus increasing the usability and scalability. As customers migrate to virtualization technology, they could also use computers as part of storage solutions. AT-2973 v1.0 also supports iSCSI (Internet Small Computer System Interface) and can even be ISER (iSCSI Extension for Remote Direct Memory Access) Host Bus Adapter (HBA), giving them the opportunity to be the main computer (initiator) or storage device (target device) to facilitate data transfers between virtual machines and manage storage over long distances.

The turn came to Italy and filter Internet addresses and to monitor servers. Corrado Calabro, head of the telecommunications regulatory authority in Italy, has criticized a draft government decree aimed at filtering or blocking dissemination of audiovisual content on the Internet or TV channels, according to international media. "There are issues to be reviewed because they are not in accordance with European directives, adopted in 2007," said Calabro. This decree, which may be approved by the government on February 5, could require satellite TV channels to encode pornographic content during the day, even those for which subscription is paid. The new decree could require certain online platforms like YouTube or Dailymotion seek authorization from the Italian Ministry of Telecommunications to broadcast different content.

Scandinavians are advanced, not only to Romania, but by other countries with claims greater than us. Recently, Scandinavians compete in speed Internet connections on their mobile phone. 3 Scandinavia together with Ericsson company, set up the fastest 3G network in the world. This should provide speeds (theoretical) up to 84 Mbps. The new network will be available throughout Norway and in four cities in Sweden. The announcement comes shortly after TeliaSonera has developed the world's first 4G network, with speeds up to 100 Mbps. This however is only available in Oslo and Stockholm. Currently there are no phones that support any of the two networks.

A true electronic barricade was built in Turkey. This has blocked 3,700 websites for political reasons, this action is condemned by representatives of OSCE, demanding reform legislation on freedom of expression, according to international media. Milos Haraszti, OSCE representative on freedom of expression issues, noticed by the Turkish government blocked several thousand sites "for political and arbitrary". He warned that Turkish legislation on the Internet does not protect freedom of expression in the country, so that should be changed. Among the sites blocked by the Turkish authorities are YouTube, GeoCities and some Google pages. Haraszti said Turkish law failed to protect freedom of expression, journalists continue to criminal penalties and risking being sentenced to prison for their initiatives. The first alarm about the violation of press freedom in Turkey was fired when state media trust Dogan penalized with a fine of $ 3.3 billion, to compel the company to obey laws that limit the right of Turkish companies have foreign employers.

Dedicated Hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service, where a server or a whole number of servers are rented by client applications such as e-commerce. This type of hosting is more expensive than shared hosting type, because the company or organization has complete control over the server or servers and can specify what types of hardware and the operating system is desired. In many cases, the supplier takes care of server management, including security issues. Dedicated hosting service providers can offer different levels of support for server management. The first service leaves all client management tasks at hand. Thus, the client will have to deal with all upgrades, patches, maintenance and security tasks. This service is best for customers who have their own IT staff, who can take care of all these things, including server security. Suppliers can also provide different levels of management, from simple monitoring and maintenance in the uppermost if take care of everything and the client should not be involved in the management server. Of course, the upper level of service is most convenient for the customer, but also the most expensive and making adjustments to the system is much more difficult. However, you can compare costs with their staff, unlike rental services provider in terms of management. Security Issues in choosing provider. In general, the choice for dedicated hosting provider should include also the analysis of the type of security services are provided. Attacks against web servers for e-commerce has intensified and hackers are becoming more sophisticated.
