  • Data Sheet Netsuite Integration Tools Achieve Cloud Business Efficiency and Preserve Existing Investments by Integrating with Third-Party Applications
    Data Sheet NetSuite Integration Tools Achieve Cloud Business Efficiency and Preserve Existing Investments by Integrating with Third-Party Applications NetSuite provides a complete cloud business management platform to power an entire business— but the reality is many companies may already be running other third-party on-premise or cloud applications for specific business processes, or they may have invested significant resources in an on-premise ERP solution like Oracle or SAP. The SuiteCloud development platform and SuiteCloud Connect integration solutions let you seamlessly integrate NetSuite with your existing systems, preserving your investments and enabling new business efficiency. In particular, a two-tier ERP model is fast emerging as the solution of choice for multinational companies expanding into new lines of business or geographic subsidiaries, or seeking standardization across a distributed environment. With a two-tier ERP model, enterprises are deploying cloud business management across their subsidiaries and synching it to on-premise ERP at headquarters at a fraction of the time and cost required for an in-house ERP deployment. With SuiteCloud integration solutions, NetSuite customers and partners can rapidly extend and integrate NetSuite capabilities for ERP/financials, CRM, ecommerce with other business systems, streamlining processes and speeding business value. SuiteCloud Connect Enterprises deploying NetSuite can use NetSuite’s SuiteCloud Connect solutions for best practices- based integration with Oracle or SAP, as well as Salesforce.com and Google. SuiteCloud Connect is based on the SuiteCloud platform, providing standards-based technology to enable the free flow of financial, supply chain and customer information between NetSuite and other business applications or cloud platforms, or between divisions running NetSuite and on-premise ERP systems at headquarters in a two-tier ERP model.

  • Q& a – Wavemaker Demo/Training Webinar – March 15, 2016
    Q& A – WaveMaker Demo/Training Webinar – March 15, 2016 Q: Is there a workflow engine ie BPMN v2 A: WaveMaker has strong integrations with APIs, web services and SDKs. You can integrate with rules engine platforms like JBPM and Drools using their Java SDKs (jars) or through their ReST APIs. You need to do this only if the workflow requires very complex workflows. Otherwise, the native capabilities of the WaveMaker should be enough to take care of your app requirements. Q: on oracle db's there are schemas, which should be considered...what is important to consider regarding to that (schema)? do I have to import the tables over each schema or is there a way how to import the whole tables (over all schemas)...? A: WaveMaker allows you to import tables from multiple schemas. See the image below. This is the second step of importing an Oracle DB. [Steps: Import > Database > Select Oracle > ….] Q: Can we provide read only access to a user group? A: For instance if you are dealing with an editable grid, which has an add/save button, all you to do is to hide the button for users with a specific role. If you are dealing with a specific widget then you can use the conditional read-only option as shown below. Here you need to write a one-line javascript as shown below, where the users with the role “rolename” will be presented a read-only birthdate. Q: Can we integrate the application for SSO ? A: You can configure SSO easily through the following approach.

  • Cloud Computing: a Taxonomy of Platform and Infrastructure-Level Offerings David Hilley College of Computing Georgia Institute of Technology
    Cloud Computing: A Taxonomy of Platform and Infrastructure-level Offerings David Hilley College of Computing Georgia Institute of Technology April 2009 Cloud Computing: A Taxonomy of Platform and Infrastructure-level Offerings David Hilley 1 Introduction Cloud computing is a buzzword and umbrella term applied to several nascent trends in the turbulent landscape of information technology. Computing in the “cloud” alludes to ubiquitous and inexhaustible on-demand IT resources accessible through the Internet. Practically every new Internet-based service from Gmail [1] to Amazon Web Services [2] to Microsoft Online Services [3] to even Facebook [4] have been labeled “cloud” offerings, either officially or externally. Although cloud computing has garnered significant interest, factors such as unclear terminology, non-existent product “paper launches”, and opportunistic marketing have led to a significant lack of clarity surrounding discussions of cloud computing technology and products. The need for clarity is well-recognized within the industry [5] and by industry observers [6]. Perhaps more importantly, due to the relative infancy of the industry, currently-available product offerings are not standardized. Neither providers nor potential consumers really know what a “good” cloud computing product offering should look like and what classes of products are appropriate. Consequently, products are not easily comparable. The scope of various product offerings differ and overlap in complicated ways – for example, Ama- zon’s EC2 service [7] and Google’s App Engine [8] partially overlap in scope and applicability. EC2 is more flexible but also lower-level, while App Engine subsumes some functionality in Amazon Web Services suite of offerings [2] external to EC2.

  • Cloud Computing
    Cloud Computing By Dennis Schmidt, Director, Office of Information Systems, UNC School of Medicine, and the GIR Information Security Working Group Cloud computing provides computing resources as an online service, not as a physical product. The user typically has little knowledge of the physical makeup or location of the supporting infrastructure. (Analogy: You buy electrical service instead of generating it yourself.) An entire spectrum of potentially lower cost, easy-to-use services with high reliability and rapid startup times is now available. Researchers and users are demanding access to the capabilities that these services provide, but security officers are reluctant to give them access and academic IT organizations are not typically resourced to provide them locally. This document provides some basic high level information and recommendations that institutions should consider before venturing into the public cloud. Types of Clouds: Security Concerns: Institutional Policies Should: Public cloud: available to the general public or a large industry group and is Access controls (Who has access to your data?) Address processing or storing owned by an organization providing cloud services. Lower cost, higher risk. Data Location (Is it being stored in a foreign country, not sensitive information in the cloud Private cloud: operated solely for one organization. It may be managed by subject to US laws?) Require that proper technical the organization or a third party and may exist on premise or off premise. Encryption (Is the data encrypted?

One important S S S S group are those concerns regarding the handling of data. On the one hand, users and companies have requirements how S S S S their data should be treated. On the other hand, lawmakers impose requirements and obligations for specific types of data. These requirements have to be addressed in order to enable the affected users and companies to utilize cloud computing. Figure 1. Intercloud Scenario However, we observe that current cloud offers, especially in an intercloud setting, fail to meet these requirements. Users have no way to specify their requirements for data handling data, especially to the cloud. These requirements typically in the cloud and providers in the cloud stack – even if they restrict, e.g., how long and where a specific piece of data were willing to meet these requirements – can thus not treat might be stored. However, in current cloud offers it is the data adequately. In this paper, we identify and discuss the impossible to meet these requirements adequately [9], as challenges for enabling data handling requirements awareness users cannot specify their requirements and cloud providers in the (inter-)cloud.
