Term ORACLE ICS  where ICS stands for Integration Cloud Services is not a jargon anymore. The simplified solution now is enhanced and all set to change ways of integration of applications. This cloud service lets your organization create integrations between cloud application, but also between cloud and on-premise applications. The integration is supported by several adapters provided by Oracle. This list might be smaller one but with time it is expected to grow exponentially as the cloud takes on the IT world.  Every coin has two sides, cloud is no exception. Though security might strike the mind as the biggest concern right now but benefits are lucrative enough.  > Why to consider cloud?  The Cloud is probably the most cost-efficient method to use, maintain and upgrade an enterprise service bus.  It is available at much cheaper rates and hence, can significantly lower the company’s IT expenses. There are many pay-as-you-go and other scalable options available, wh

IoT as you may have already heard and read the term refers to the connection of devices (other than typical fare such as computers and smartphones) to the Internet. Cars, kitchen appliances, and even heart monitors can all be connected through the IoT. And as the Internet of Things grows in the next few years, more devices will join that list. Let's just dig a bit deeper how is it going to change and shape our future... IoT represents an architectural shift IoT is changing the computer hardware model that we’ve had for the past 30 or 40 years. Consider all the different phases of hardware models that have existed; green screen, to mini-computer, to PC, to cloud and mobile. The computer architecture has been consistent; Client and Server.  What's changed over the years are the clients. For IoT, however, there is actually a third hardware layer which breaks the traditional client-server model. Developers and architects are used to building software systems acros

So you think that you have been to the extremes of gaming experiences, what if I say, I don't think so. Believe me or not I have a new reason to say that after hearing about the latest Xbox update. The project 'SCORPIO' is all set to take you to the extremes of the gaming experiences. This is set to launch in June 2017 for consumers. Reportedly it is going to be the most powerful gaming console till date.  Let's see what specs it has to offer: Project Scorpio's CPU will feature 8 custom x86 cores clocked at 2.3GHz -- well above the original system's 1.75GHz, and even higher than the PS4 Pro's 2.1GHz. The GPU is built around 40 customized compute units at 1172MHz, which will provide a more stable and higher frame rate with faster load times. That far exceeds the Xbox One's 12GCN compute units at 853MHz, and beats the PS4 Pro's 36 improved GCN compute units at 911MHz. In terms of memory, Project Scorpio will offer 12GB GDDR5 compared t

Weird name though but I am pretty much sure that this name will be an integral part of web fraternity in upcoming years. The question arises what is Guetzli and how would it become so important. Websites are an integral part of life now and who does not hate it if they tend to load slow, quite frustrating isn't it? As always Google has come to our rescue.  > What is GUETZLI ? Guetzli is an encoder developed by Google that allows JPEG files to be compressed as much as 35 percent, resulting in much faster Web page loading. "Guetzli," which means "cookie" in Swiss German, allows users to create smaller JPEG images while maintaining compatibility with existing Web browsers, image processing applications and the existing JPEG standard. > How does it enhance browsing speed? Guetzli produces a result similar to that of Google's Zopfli algorithm, which produces smaller PNG and gzip files without the requirement of a new file format. T

Linux , the king of OS's comes with a variety of flavours. Term OS for linux is nothing in comparison to what its capabilities are, ecosystem seems appropriate. People working on linux environment are majorly working on linux based distribution softwares. Redhat and Ubuntu being the most common names heard, but this is not the end of the list, because in linux ecosystem the unheard names like Linux Mint, openSUSE have been widely used throughout the world from last 25 years around. The different flavours have outcasted each other in some or the other way, thus providing great platforms to work on for end users. Let's see the versions who made a place in my top 10 list. 1.  Linux Mint :  Linux Mint is a stable, robust, and elegant Ubuntu-based distribution. One of the reasons behind its popularity is the fact that up until version 17.x it included out of the box a lot of useful software (such as multimedia codecs). However, this ended with version 18, leaving it up to t

Tired of heavy and sluggish browsers?  Becoming minimalistic in life might achieve you a sigh of relief. You say what's the connection between minimalism and browsers? I say yes there is, what if all extensions and other plugins which make the browsers crawl were removed and you had a browser which only did its very basic job, browsing.

Min Is a Minimal, Open-Source Web Browser for Linux, Mac and windows.  Min isn’t attempting to feature leap Firefox or compete with Chrome but it is here to provide a very basic featured browser based on the 'keep it simple make it smooth' principle > What Min does to increase speed?  The app shuts advanced features like add-on frameworks, UI transitions and window chrome to focus on delivering a clean, straightforward web experience.
