NetApp With New Storage Management Integration

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

NetApp has added new storage management integration for greater performance and scalability of VMware vSphere environments. The new NetApp Virtual Storage Console will enable customers to centrally manage all NetApp cloud storage for VMware environments directly from the VMware vCenter Server console and fully leverage the benefits of virtualized infrastructures.

“Virtualization of the server and storage infrastructure is reshaping today’s data center as customers begin laying the foundation for cloud computing,” VMware global strategic alliances vice president Gary Green said in a statement. “The integration between VMware vCenter Server and Virtual Storage Console further demonstrates how the VMware and NetApp partnership benefits our customers by providing enhanced visibility and management for greater productivity, response time, and overall return on investment.”

How One Cloud Computing Customer Got Burned

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

One of FireHost’s recently acquired customers, LawLeaf, a web-based financial services company that finds loans for people trying to finance the cost of lawsuits they’re filing, left its previous web hosting vendor, BlueHost, after an attack that almost put LawLeaf out of business.

LawLeaf Managing Director Tim Burke says he started the company in 2007 “with nickels” as a sideline to his main job selling member-management software to non-profit companies. He originally chose BlueHost to house LawLeaf.com because of awards the hosting company had won and because of its flat $6.95/month service plan. Burke says that he had been “pretty happy” with BlueHost’s service until LawLeaf.com started to go down at the beginning of the year.

In January, LawLeaf.com was hit with a SQL injection attack that compromised the PHP code that generates many of its pages. The infection caused the site to crash frequently and, worse, force-downloaded malware on unsuspecting users. By February, the site was crashing twice a week. By March it crashed ever day, Burke says.

Just A Five Review

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

So I just found an amazing site that you can buy or sell things online.  The site is called Just A Five where you can buy or sell anything for $5 or $10.  I have found that it’s a great way to earn extra cash online.

Say you want people to go out there and blog about your website… There is someone that will do that for $5.  Want someone to write a song for you?  there is someone that will do that for $5.  Want someone to be your virtual assistant for an hour?  There is someone to do that for $10.  Basically, if you can think of something out there, there is probably someone out there willing to do it for $5-$10.  The call it Just A Five because it always goes up in $5 increments.

Another great thing about Just A Five is their Affiliate program.  The Just A Five Affiliate program allows you to refer your friends and family and anyone out there to the service.  Anytime that they buy or sell something, you get up to 5% of the transaction.  They pretty much give away all the money that they make to you.  This is another great way that you can make money online.
