BIONIX – a Solaris Based Platform for Computational Biology Abhishek Pratap1 Prateek Singh2
BIONIX – a Solaris based Platform for Computational Biology Abhishek Pratap1 Prateek Singh2 1 VIT University, Vellore, TN 632014 India [email protected] 2 VIT University, Vellore, TN 632014 India [email protected] Keywords: Live CD, operating system, Integrated Workbench, Software. Bionix is an integrated software workbench, developed for bioinformaticians and computational biologists. Bioinx is a remastered version of Belenix with open source based bioinformatics applications being integrated with the kernel. The fact that distinguishes Bionix from other open source software’s is the performance based on the most advanced operating system technology, Solaris platform with feature like ZFS(128 bit File System), DTrace (Dynamic Tracing Framework), Zones (Multiple application can run in isolation), SMF (Service Management Framework for handling dependencies). There has been significant reduction in the boot time and memory requirements with on the fly compression techniques being used. It is independent of host operating system. It may provide an ad-hoc solution where no Solaris is installed and has the capability of forming a virtual cluster lab in minutes with auto network detection. The entire Emboss package has been remodeled with graphical user interface and onscreen help options, the NCBI toolkit with all flavors of blast and utilities like entrez search and sequin where a biologist can search or submit a sequence without going to web interface, molecular visualization tools like RasMol and Garlic; and a Perl module, bioperl for application development. The work on parallel computing with Bionix is in progress. The entire project has been coordinated with Asia Pacific Science and Technology Center, Sun Microsystems, Singapore. -

Perspectives of Innovations, Economics & Business, Volume 8, Issue 2, 201 1 EVALUATION OF PERFORMANCE OF SOLARIS TRUSTED EXTENSIONS USING CONTAINERS TECHNOLOGY EVALUATION OF PERFORMANCE OF GENTI DACI SOLARIS TRUSTED EXTENSIONS USING CONTAINERS TECHNOLOGY Faculty of Information Technology Polytechnic University of Tirana, Albania UDC: 004.45 Key words: Solaris Containers. Abstract: Server and system administrators have been concerned about the techniques on how to better utilize their computing resources. Today, there are developed many technologies for this purpose, which consists of running multiple applications and also multiple operating systems on the same hardware, like VMWARE, Linux-VServer, VirtualBox, Xen, etc. These systems try to solve the problem of resource allocation from two main aspects: running multiple operating system instances and virtualizing the operating system environment. Our study presents an evaluation of scalability and performance of an operating system virtualization technology known as Solaris Containers, with the main objective on measuring the influence of a security technology known as Solaris Trusted Extensions. Solaris. We will study its advantages and disadvantages and also the overhead that it introduces to the scalability of the system’s main advantages. ISSN: 1804 -0527 (online) 1804 -0519 (print) Vol.8 (2), PP. 63 -69 Introduction administration because there are no multiple operating system instances in a system. During the latest years, a lot of projects have been looking on virtualizing operating system Operating systems environments, such as FreeBSD Jail, Linux- VServer, Virtuozzo etc. This virtualization technique is based in using only one underlying Solaris/OpenSolaris are Operating Systems operating system kernel. Using this paradigm the performing as the main building blocks of computer user has the possibility to run multiple applications systems; they provide the interface between user in isolation from each other. -
The Server Virtualization Landscape, Circa 2007
ghaff@ illuminata.com Copyright © 2007 Illuminata, Inc. single user license Gordon R Haff Illuminata, Inc. TM The Server Virtualization Bazaar, Circa 2007 Inspired by both industry hype and legitimate customer excitement, many Research Note companies seem to have taken to using the “virtualization” moniker more as the hip phrase of the moment than as something that’s supposed to convey actual meaning. Think of it as “eCommerce” or “Internet-enabled” for the Noughts. The din is loud. It doesn’t help matters that virtualization, in the broad sense of “remapping physical resources to more useful logical ones,” spans a huge swath of Gordon Haff technologies—including some that are so baked-in that most people don’t even 27 July 2007 think of them as virtualization any longer. Personally licensed to Gordon R Haff of Illuminata, Inc. for your personal education and individual work functions. Providing its contents to external parties, including by quotation, violates our copyright and is expressly forbidden. However, one particular group of approaches is capturing an outsized share of the limelight today. That would, of course, be what’s commonly referred to as “server virtualization.” Although server virtualization is in the minds of many inextricably tied to the name of one company—VMware—there are many companies in this space. Their offerings include not only products that let multiple virtual machines (VMs) coexist on a single physical server, but also related approaches such as operating system (OS) virtualization or containers. In the pages that follow, I offer a guide to today’s server virtualization bazaar— which at first glance can perhaps seem just a dreadfully confusing jumble. -

Título: Redes inalámbricas ad-hoc autoconfigurables. Caso de estudio e implementación Autores: Marcos Mazzini Director: Ing. Luis Marrone Codirector: Lic. Paula Venosa Asesor profesional: - Carrera: Licenciatura en Informática Cualquier computadora portátil medianamente moderna ya cuenta con una placa de red inalámbrica y soporte para redes ad-hoc o sea que cada placa de red puede reenviar datos a cualquier otra que esté a su alcance sin necesidad de un nodo centralizado, pero esta configuración no viene por defecto en los distintos sistemas operativos y en general se requiere instalar y configurar software adicional para que la comunicación sea simple para el usuario no experto. Con la idea de facilitar el aprovechamiento del hardware con el que cuentan estas computadoras, se investigaron las tecnologías existentes que permiten configurar las placas de red en modo ad-hoc, asignar direcciones IP en forma descentralizada, resolver nombres de forma descentralizada y anunciar servicios de cada computadora en un entorno de red. Con esta información se derivó una versión Live CD de Linux con aplicaciones para redes preconfiguradas, soporte para placas de red Wi-Fi y modo ad-hoc preconfigurado de modo que si dos o más notebooks bootean este sistema puedan intercambiar archivos, compartir información, chatear y visualizar remotamente los escritorios y utilizar aplicaciones de red entre ellas sin ninguna necesidad de configurar, instalar o modificar los sistemas existentes y sin necesidad de conectarse a un Access Point. Wi-Fi Ad-Hoc LiveCD Linux Cigarra Conectar Igualdad Se verificó que las tecnologías analizadas son Debian Live Zeroconf Avahi mDNS Link Local IP compatibles y que resuelven la funcionalidad esperada. -
Virtual Containers: Asset Management Best Practices and Licensing Considerations
Virtual Containers: Asset Management Best Practices and Licensing Considerations Virtual containers have seen tremendous adoption and growth within all industries. However, in terms of IT asset management, cont- ainers are not being managed and are an unknown area of risk for many of our clients. Because it is a newer technology, there is very little information about managing containers and how to address the emerging SAM & ITAM challenges they bring. Due to this lack of public information, Anglepoint has published this whitepaper on navigating the world of containers, with an empha- sis on asset management and licensing. We will cover everything from the history of containers, to what containers are, the benefits of containers, asset management best practices, and some publisher-specific licensing considerations. A BRIEF HISTORY OF VIRTUAL CONTAINERS The first proper containers came from the Linux world as LXC (LinuX Containers) in 2008. However, it wasn’t until 2013 that containers entered the IT public consciousness, when Docker came onto the scene with Enterprise usage in mind. Even then, though, it was more of an enthusiast’s technology. In 2015, Google released and open sourced Kubernetes which manages and ‘orchestrates’ containers. However, it wasn’t until 2017 that Docker and Kubernetes had matured enough to be considered for production use within corporate environments. 2017 also saw VMware, Microsoft, and Amazon beginning to support and offer solutions for Kubernetes and Docker on their top-tier cloud infrastructure. WHAT IS A CONTAINER? Often, people conflate the term ‘container’ with multiple technologies that make up the container ecosystem. Let’s look at what a modern container is at the most fundamental level. -
