BestFreeWebSpace.org is a web hosting review site dedicated to providing visitors with the best web hosting information and reviews available. The Best Free Web Space team has worked with many of the best web hosting service providers and occasionally comes across one that is exceptional in one particular area. When that happens they like to recognize the company for the effort they are making to provide an excellent service; vServer Center is one such company. In addition to offering some of the best cloud servers, vServer Center is one of the few to offer cloud VPS hosting.

vServer Center web hosting plans all come with a 100% uptime guarantee, substantiating the vServer Center reviews that claim they provide unbeatable service. Cloud hosting is by nature a more reliable web hosting option than most shared web hosting plans but vServer Center takes everything one step further to ensure that they are doing what they can to provide the best web hosting service possible. With more than 15 years in the business, the vServer team is very familiar with the technology and applications needed to ensure a satisfactory customer experience. A big part of the customer‘s success is tied to the customer support offered by the company. With vServer Center their customer and technical support is no exception. vServer Center takes an individual interest in every web hosting client and makes their support service available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Cloud VPS hosting from vServer Center provides the same basic benefits of using a dedicated cloud server, at a reduced price. VPS (Virtual Private Server) hosting is when a section of a server is made into a dedicated portion, through implementing special software, to provide account owners with the flexibility and control similar to that of a dedicated server. Users have the ability to choose the type of operating system they want to run and even upgrade or change it at anytime. Cloud VPS hosting plans from vServer Center also include the ability to reboot the system, install any software or application the users chooses, and have unmetered bandwidth and other unlimited web hosting features.

Finding the best web hosting is an individual decision and that decision should be based on a number of factors. Reading some web hosting reviews or talking to the sales and service teams from some of the best web hosting providers can give users an idea of the tools and features they will need for the type of website he or she has in mind. This research will also give users an idea of the experience others have had with the company and let them test the quality of the support team before they really need them. Best Free Web Space has had a very positive experience working with vServer Center and is excited to recommend them as the Top VPS Provider.

WSO2 delivers the only complete open source enterprise SOA middleware stack purpose-built as an integrated platform to support today’s heterogeneous enterprise environments—internally and in the cloud

Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) February 02, 2012

Effective business-to-business communications rely on APIs to connect companies’ disparate systems. However, many enterprises struggle to expose RESTful APIs, and ultimately they spend more time and effort creating workaround solutions. WSO2 will provide IT architects and developers insights into identifying and addressing the challenges around building, exposing, and consuming RESTful APIs in a dynamic one-day workshop, “Creating RESTful APIs: Using the WSO2 Platform.” The technical workshop, which runs 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m., is being held in two locations:

· Boston, Monday, February 21, 2012, to register visit wso2.com/events/workshops/2012-february-boston-creating-restful-apis-workshop.

· New York, Thursday, February 23, 2012, to register visit wso2.com/events/workshops/2012-february-new-york-creating-restful-apis-workshop.

Creating RESTful APIs

The workshop is designed for IT architects and developers seeking to build effective RESTful APIs used across different business domains. It will explore how to expose heterogeneous back-end assets (i.e. services, data, processes and rules) as RESTful APIs in a quick, simple, easy, and architecturally sound manner. The session also will examine how WSO2 Enterprise Service Bus (WSO2 ESB), WSO2 Application Server, WSO2 Data Services Server, and two forthcoming WSO2 offerings for API management and API storefront, provide solutions for creating, publishing, securing, managing, discovering, evaluating, and consuming RESTful services. Workshop session topics will include:

· API Architecture, a look at how to meet business requirements by designing an elegant, consumable RESTful API using basic REST methods. The approach will follow REST methods, principles, and best practices to build the API. It will address how to enhance the API using RESTful techniques—such as Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State (HATEOS) and Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) types—and describe API design best practices.

· Writing REST Services, examining how to publish RESTful APIs exposed with a REST binding by using the Java REST API, JAX-RS, and how WSO2 Application Server can be used to host JAX-RS.

· Mediating Legacy Services and Securing the RESTful API Using the API Gateway Pattern and WSO2 ESB, exploring how to configure the WSO2 ESB to follow the gateway pattern and expose back-end data, service, and process resources as RESTful APIs. The topic will cover how to secure an API using API management and security protocols such as HTTP basic authentication or Open Authorization (OAuth).

· Providing RESTful Data Access, demonstrating how WSO2 Data Services Server enables architects to expose data entities as resources and perform create, read, update and delete (CRUD) operations using REST methods, while conforming to HATEOS.

· Beyond the APIs: API Store and Your Business as an API, a discussion of how enterprise API patterns can encourage API consumption and reuse. An API storefront process pattern enables potential consumers to discover APIs, match business requirements, subscribe to APIs, and gain access credentials. The “Your Business as an API” pattern delivers cloud-based API hosting infrastructure, which augments the API by enabling multi-tenancy, self-service configuration, billing and metering, and control. Overall, this pattern covers how vertical platform-as-a-service (PaaS) takes business APIs into the enterprise and out to partners, suppliers, and customers.

Workshop Presenters

The workshop will be led by Hiranya Jayathilaka, WSO2 Enterprise Service Bus product lead. Hiranya is an expert in HTTP and spearheads the work on supporting REST APIs within WSO2 ESB and the WSO2 Carbon enterprise middleware platform. He is a long-time committer on the Apache Synapse and Apache Xerces2/J projects; author of the FIX transport for Apache Synapse; and a contributor to several other open source projects, including Apache Derby and Apache Web Services. Hiranya is also a pioneering member of the MOINC project, which is focused at leveraging grid computing and volunteer computing principles to implement highly scalable Web services clusters.

In New York, Hiranya will be joined by Chris Haddad, WSO2 vice president of technology evangelism. Chris works closely with developers, architects, and C-level executives to increase WSO2 technology adoption, improve the middleware platform, and maximize customer value. Prior to joining WSO2, Chris led research teams at Burton Group and Gartner advising Fortune 500 enterprise organizations and technology infrastructure vendors on adoption strategies, architecture, product selection, governance, and organizational alignment. His team advanced best practices in PaaS, cloud application architecture patterns, SOA, and application middleware. Chris also has served as an Apache Axis committer.

San Jose, California (PRWEB) February 01, 2012

In the heart of Silicone Valley, it might seem difficult for a tech company to make a name for itself among so many others. But, that is just what ZAG Technical Services has done. With offices in San Jose and Salinas, California, ZAG provides IT support for some of the most highly technical firms in the region.

ZAG’s success, which is the subject of a Cloud Innovators Case Study, comes in large part through enabling businesses to focus on their core competencies — their key strategic initiatives — rather than worry about their day-to-day information technology support. ZAG takes a very practical and methodical approach to providing solutions that deliver results for its customers.

“One thing we do that we pride ourselves on is we don’t just go in, work by ourselves, deliver a black box that you then inherit and don’t know anything about,” said Greg Gatzke, a ZAG Principal. “We involve the customer as much as possible — or as much as they want — so they have what they want at the end of the day and they understand it. They will know how we got there and they know how to manage it.”

ZAG’s business has grown as it has increasingly focused on delivering cloud-based solutions. By taking what were once on-premise systems and moving them to the cloud, ZAG has shown businesses the benefits in terms of productivity and direct cost savings. The major provider of the cloud services that ZAG deploys is Microsoft with its host of cloud products, most notably, Office 365.

“We entered the Microsoft online offering pretty much when it was born,” Gatzke said. “We just saw where Microsoft was going with this and thought it made a lot of sense for other companies. So, we were an early adopter and it’s paid off well for us.”

Gatzke attributes a good deal of their success with Microsoft Office 365 to how it aligns with ZAG’s approach to keeping focused on practical and proven solutions. Microsoft Office is a proven, reliable product and the cloud-based offering continues in that trusted role, and offers more flexibility than ever.

“They’ve got rules and best practices,” Gatzke said. “If you follow those, they are proven and scalable.”

Hyatt Regency New Orleans

MORRISTOWN, NJ (PRWEB) January 26, 2012

After being shuttered for more than six years, following the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, Hyatt Regency New Orleans recently reopened following a $ 275 million redesign and revitalization.

The 1,193-room hotel offers the city’s largest hotel event space, doubled to 200,000 square feet and features Schindler Elevator Corporation’s award-winning PORT (Personal Occupant Requirement Terminal) Technology to help move the thousands of guests who pass through the building’s 32 floors every day faster and more efficiently.

Schindler recently completed the installation of its PORT destination-dispatch system on eight high-rise passenger elevators at Hyatt Regency New Orleans. Unique to the hotel is that each guest’s room key is programmed automatically upon check-in to provide customized elevator access. When guests swipe their room key at the PORT device, an elevator is automatically called to take them to the hotel floor where they will be staying. Due to the PORT system’s advanced access control, guests receive customized mobility throughout the hotel from the moment they first reach the elevator bank. It is the first building in Louisiana to benefit from the power of Schindler’s PORT Technology and the first hotel in the United States with a building security system seamlessly integrated with elevator access control at every floor.

Best understood as the central nervous system of a building, PORT Technology functions as a two-way communication interface between the occupants and the hotel’s environment. The system’s visible aspect is a sleek, futuristic interface positioned at access points and elevators around the building. Behind the stylish touch screen is a powerful software system, capable not only of calculating the optimum route to any destination within the building, but also of “learning” how its occupants typically move around. With this information, PORT Technology primes the elevators to direct and transport people quickly and safely to their individual destinations. Furthermore, Schindler’s patented technology works with RFID badges to identify passengers and call elevators for personal service.

“The PORT Technology makes possible a truly networked environment at Hyatt Regency New Orleans that recognizes occupants and responds to their individual needs,” says Michael Landis, vice president, Marketing for Schindler. “What makes the system special is the ease with which the hotel’s managers can design applications to accommodate a wide range of needs in real time. Whether it’s helping to meet new energy-efficiency goals, updating security, scheduling maintenance or adapting to people with special needs, unprecedented levels of customization can be achieved.”

“The revitalized Hyatt Regency New Orleans offers guests the latest in technology and the new PORT Technology represents the advances that we have made to provide our guests with an optimal experience.” noted Michael Smith, general manager, Hyatt Regency New Orleans. “This system is innovative and efficient which are both key in providing great customer service.”

PORT Technology Energy-Saving Features

o    Each PORT terminal’s proximity sensor tells it when to be active and at all other times puts it into low energy consumption mode.

o    When the terminal screen illuminates, an ambient light sensor determines only the brightness level required, again optimizing energy usage.

o    The PORT Technology helps ensure elevator trips are as efficient as possible. This produces a very resourceful use of energy even during heavy traffic.

About Hyatt Regency New Orleans

Hyatt Regency New Orleans re-opened on October 19, 2011 after a $ 275 million redesign and revitalization featuring 1,193 guest rooms and suites, 200,000 square feet of meeting and event space, expansive food and beverage offerings, and unprecedented service. Located downtown on Loyola Avenue, the hotel is adjacent to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome and anchors the vibrant Sports and Entertainment District. Hyatt Regency New Orleans borders the new Medical District, the Arts & Entertainment District and is just blocks from the French Quarter, Ernest N. Morial Convention Center and the Mississippi Riverfront. For reservations and additional information, please call 888.591.1234 or visit http://www.neworleans.hyatt.com.
