    Enterprise Software Cloudification -

    More and more software functions traditionally performed by the client now transferred to the server and beyond to the cloud.

    One such example is the transformation of the media, as if YouTube allows users to upload a video in one of several formats, transformations and then used in a variety of formats and resolutions for all standard video player ; the resulting increase in productivity and convenience is huge.

    Citrix is ​​in the same direction and a current XenApp / XenDesktop function (Call Start Telemetry Service) uses cloud-based Citrix Insight Services (CIS) Relocation to bring best experience for customers and Citrix Support engineers here is a simplified schematic of how telemetry system is typically constructed.

    Traditionally, either built in "Collector" and "parser" are a single unit or a part / all "parser" will be divided into a separate tool. The former approach leads to poor performance in the turning sharply to the determination and negatively impacts software runtime behavior. The latter approach is still not produced the best performance, because "Binary Stream" for a particular "Collector" is not optimal, but standardized for ubiquitous "parser" and "parser" (and its inputs) has distributed to all consumers and updated / maintained will .

    Better solution, which was implemented by Call Home Telemetry Service - build a lightweight, high-performance "Collector" and offload parsing on a cloud-based CIS platform so that all types / sizes of "Collector" without offered by the cloud use to disrupt any consumer workflows scalability and flexibility. That is, we are now in a position with the normal production code execution turned tracing without any noticeable impact on performance at any time - no more problems with hard to reproduce questions

    Windows 10-optimization: The Untold results

    Windows 10-optimization: The Untold results -

    For a few weeks a while back, people had in my house I was bugged about our Internet problem resolve From time to time, devices were unable to connect. No email. No NetFlix. No Minecraft (this last was devastating.)

    I traced the problem to my wireless router. The 4-5 year old machine was extremely hot. There were more than 50 connected units! When I originally bought the thing, I had probably only 10 devices are connected.

    After buying a new, all went the connection problems.

    How do I search starts at the features of the new router

    , I saw that there is a built-in Traffic Monitor. So I turned it on.

    Here is what I found-while with these graphics in 3 at-interesting looking at it:


    It is in the middle of the night a peak in activity. I followed a few days and the peak appears consistently. After some do digging, it turns out that these tips do my Windows 10 PC and my Windows 7 Media Center PC to have their nightly updates.

    This leads to an interesting point with regard to Windows 10-optimization. Although told that we are not implemented in Windows 10 Optimization results blog that the optimizations us of an increase of 20% was in server density, what we remember is that many of the improvements we will be considered for the test period.

    Take the scheduled task "Customer Experience Improvement Program / Consolidator" as an example. It runs every 6 hours starting at midnight. to be reflected by this optimization in our test results, the test in one of the respective intervals must be performed. If my test just 1 hour running, there is a high probability, I'll have no test run when it completes.

    Many of the other scheduled tasks run at the beginning. Most performance tests I've only seen to concentrate on the steady state, means the most of the start scheduled tasks, be missed as part of the test.

    So does this mean that our 20% use the optimization for the operation wrong? Of course not, but show it, that in the course of a working day or working, the benefits could be 20% larger.

    But in the end, nothing is more better than a real comparison.

    Citrix NetScaler CPX a lightweight alternative for cloud providers

    Citrix NetScaler CPX a lightweight alternative for cloud providers -

    Citrix NetScaler, a full Application Delivery Controller (ADC) has recently launched a new, lighter version of itself.

    Made to fit small scale cloud applications and container-style implementations, the new CPX is a micro-form of NetScaler.

    The CPX is light and is easier to put into production than the traditional ADC. Development teams can adjust the exact product and configure, which will be available online and will be able to regain confidence, as it is as intended. Since CPX is built from the same code and management API as the existing NetScaler ADC, but it improves your operational efficiency; does not require retrofitting or changes to homegrown and management tools acquired.

    So, what features are supported in the new CPX? The first preview version brings our two most popular functions: L4 & L7 load balancing and SSL encryption. The final product, this year is still supported for complete NetScaler feature set.

    The dynamic scale of today's cloud-based services, with the need to reduce the time to add new services while receiving an even shorter product life cycle, the CPX makes a perfect fit in this new paradigm. This new product is built on industry-leading standards like Docker container and XML / JSON web-based API, making it both a minimal need for new resources, while also being the safest.

    Because this product is designed, you are working with other NetScaler form factors, I can see scenarios that use different versions for very different purposes. For example, a service frontend to the hardware-based SSL performance and granular multi-tenancy, ensuring protection of NetScaler SDX, while back-end applications using the container-based product accessibility to the resources in high demand.

    , the limited edition of the CPX is already mentioned by Q1 2016 and the start of production is expected near the middle of the year. to get to your Citrix sales team, if interested, the new fine-grained try light output of NetScaler in the growing container-based cloud environment.
