If you are running Windows Server in the cloud, which you want to access via remote desktop (RDP) there are some basic security rules you need to follow. This is necessary, first and foremost because exposing RDP to the internet is “low hanging fruit” for hackers. We highly recommend taking the following ten steps.
Without the cloud it is very difficult to store and share the huge volumes of data needed for genome sequencing. Given the sensitivity of human genome data in terms of ownership and privacy, security and compliance are paramount.
You have heard of containers, but find them a bit of a mystery? Then this article is perfect for you. In it, we explain the concept and characteristics of containers. This helps to understand why containers are one of the big trends in IT.
In this post, I will show you how to make your application data persist by adding a persistent volume claim to an already deployed pod/container.
In this article I demonstrate how to set up an autoscaler to scale up the pods when the CPU usage exceeds a certain threshold and back down again.
JupyterLab is the most widely used data science / machine learning IDE. Deploying it on OpenShift / Kubernetes adds another layer of flexibility in terms of convenience, resource allocation and horizontal scaling across user groups.
Deploying OpenShift to the cloud as opposed to bare metal, is an ideal way to get up and going quickly, being particularly well suited to development and test environments where instant resource availability and flexibility is key. A great way to smooth the path to a successful OpenShift deployment is by using automation.
On the final day of our Advent Calendar, we congratulate Switzerland for being the world’s best in innovation. The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) carries out an annual study of worldwide innovation and calculates an index called the Global Innovation Index (GII). Switzerland has come out on top for the last 8 years.
High-temperature superconductors (high-Tc or HTS) are materials that behave as superconductors at unusually high temperatures. The first high-Tc superconductor was discovered in 1986 by IBM researchers Georg Bednorz and K. Alex Müller, who were awarded the 1987 Nobel Prize in Physics “for their important break-through in the discovery of superconductivity in ceramic materials”.
In 1970, the physicists Martin Schadt and Wolfgang Helfrich invented the twisted nematic field effect (TN-effect) whilst working at Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd, in Basel. This invention rapidly paved the way for commercial Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD), which are still in use today.
