Ubuntu 16.04 LTS as an ownCloud server
Locally hosted collaboration servers are an alternative to letting employees swap files in a public cloud. We show you how to set up an ownCloud 9 environment on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
Finally: Java 9
Java 9 tempts programmers with innovations intended to facilitate the development and operation of Java applications.
SDS configuration and performance
Software-defined storage promises centrally managed, heterogeneous storage with built-in redundancy. We examine how complicated it is to set up the necessary distributed filesystems. A benchmark shows which operations each system is best at tackling.
Segmenting networks with VLANs
Network virtualization takes very different approaches at the software and hardware levels to divide or group network resources into logical units independent of the physical layer. It is typically a matter of implementing secure strategies. We show the technical underpinnings of VLANs.
Features of PowerShell loops
Optimize your PowerShell scripts with loops when automating tasks that are repeated regularly and frequently.
Software-defined networking with Windows Server 2016
Windows Server 2016 takes a big step toward software-defined networking, with the Network Controller server role handling the centralized management, monitoring, and configuration of network devices and virtual networks. This service can also be controlled with PowerShell and is particularly interesting for Hyper-V infrastructures.
Digital signatures in package management
Serious distributions try to protect their repositories cryptographically against tampering and transmission errors. Arch Linux, Debian, Fedora, openSUSE, and Ubuntu all take different, complex, but conceptually similar approaches.
Installing .NET on Linux
By the time the annual 2016 Red Hat Summit was held at the end of June in San Francisco, the previously announced support for .NET applications on Red Hat Enterprise Linux had been implemented. We take a closer look at the implementation and how admins can create a .NET environment under Linux.
Resolving problems with DNS, Active Directory, and Group Policy
Upgrading domain controllers or installing new servers can cause problems with name resolution, Active Directory replication, and Group Policy. A coordinated approach can isolate these errors in Windows Server 2008 or newer.
Monitor Windows systems and Linux servers
The Microsoft Operations Management Suite provides a comprehensive monitoring solution in the cloud that offers a high degree of flexibility and scalability.
