Windows Azure

In this past Windows Event I learned about a cloud platform which enables you to quickly build, deploy and manage appplications within a global network of Microsoft managed data centers . It's not well known since it's been out for only three years. It provides an infrastructure that scales and adapts to changing your business needs.They basically help give you a better performance and a lot of support. They are located in San Antonio, Virginia California and Chicago. Where the one in Chicago is the biggest. I also learned that I can make web sites out of Windows Azure. On my free trial, I can make up to ten web sites. The way this was set up, was like Windows Virtual PC.(XP mode)This event actually made me understand virtualization even more. I enjoyed being a part of it.

Our Creation by Eva and I

In this diagram what Eva and I had to do was to create a network plan. It was a bit difficult but we managed to sum it all up. We have our cloud which is the center including the ISP. With this we connected lans, T-1 wans, switches, routers and PCs. I had fun putting this all together. I didn't really think you needed all this information and devices in order to create a network plan.

I don't think it's right for the European Union to give a huge fine to Microsoft. Just because of the browser? Well I think if they don't like it. , EU should create their own. Microsoft is providing us internet explorer. and yes it caused a glitched on 28m PCs but that was just a technical error. But what does EU do? Instead of making fines? I haven't seen them create something better.

Activites

The hands on activity I've done, was to work on a computer. Israel, Martin and I had to remove the power supply and install a new one. It was a bit difficult to remove the pins, but we managed to get things done.

The image on the right , shows Israel trying to unscrew the screws in order to get the power supply out.

Israel.

I learned that the motherboard holds 24 pins. The CPU holds 4 pins. This helped me remember the things I had to know.

Recently

Within these past weeks I have learned a lot. With the activities , it didn't look like it was that much fun but as I walked through the activity I was having fun. Like when I was playing the games my classmates created. I learned a lot more. and the things I thought I knew, I ended up forgetting about that, but this helped me regained my knowledge back.
When working on the test out and then working on actual computers. Its not that bad as I thought. Not hard but not to easy, its a challenge at times, but its entertaining.

Lately in CST

I've been learning so much lately. It can sound boring, especially when just sitting down for hours just staring at a monitor. But nope, I'm actually having fun on what I'm doing. Not only that but I created a game, something that can help me and others to quickly grab some information and see what Computer Systems Technology is all about. For example, on the System Management Game, here it's nothing about terms. You ask yourself well what is this about. Like what's the Boot Option Key? Well there's no other that really makes sense, but the F8. Basically in this game, its talking about the main devices. So it should be easy. Well have fun enjoying this game.
