Early Thoughts on the Windows Azure Announcements. Today’s release marks a significant milestone for Windows Azure.

Early Thoughts on the Windows Azure Announcements

To date, Windows Azure has been a platform that allows developers to build and run applications across Microsoft’s global datacenters – the key emphasis has been on “applications”. Windows Azure has not been a platform for providing the underlying infrastructure for running your own virtual machine – this has been a key pain point for many customers looking to move to the cloud that Microsoft has heard loud and clear. Tuning Windows Azure Performance, a brief introduction - Hakan Eren's blog. One common reason we go for cloud computing is the ability to scale, as much as needed.

This usually means an increase in the overall performance of our application. However in certain cases we might face a decrease in performance with cloud computing. I will try to explain the most common reasons that I came across for such unexpected behaviour. Latency Issues Also known as ping time, latency is the round trip network time between the client and the server. Latency, locally in a country can be around 25 msec (milliseconds).

I’ve put together the Paperless Action Plan to help answer your most pressing questions, in an easy-to-follow and fun format.

OfficeDrop Now Lets You Scan Documents To Social Networks — And The Cloud. Last April, OfficeDrop raised $1 million in angel funding for its online solution that allows people to take all the paper documents cluttering their offices, scan them, then manage, organize, and store them in the cloud.

OfficeDrop Now Lets You Scan Documents To Social Networks — And The Cloud

With its round of angel funding, OfficeDrop set out to work on the development of mobile apps, and has since launched both iPhone and iPad apps that turns your Apple and Android devices into a scanner. Among other things, these apps allow users to take a picture of a recept when on a trip and send it their expense folders in OfficeDrop’s cloud “filing cabinet.” These apps also allow users to search documents on their phone, pulling up a receipt you scanned four months ago.

Today, OfficeDrop wants to bring its mobile functionality back to the desktop, as it is announcing updates to its ScanDrop Mac and ScanDrop Lite apps (ScanDrop Lite is free) that let any Mac user integrate scanned paper with digital screenshots to create multi-age, searchable PDFs.

Web Office suite vendor Zoho is continuing its rapid pace of new product releases, with an online database and reports app called Zoho DB.

Zoho DB Launched - Beats Google, Microsoft to Online Database

Zoho is making a habit of one-upping their competition, because as of now none of Google, Microsoft Office Live, or ThinkFree offer a comparable online database product. The closest competitor to Zoho DB is the startup DabbleDB, which is an impressive "part spreadsheet, part database, part collaboration app" that I reviewed when it launched in June 2006 (see also my May '06 post). Some of the main features in Zoho DB are:

We’ve just spent the last two days in London talking, presenting and demonstrating Xero to 650 accountants and bookkeepers across two separate conferences; the annual conference of the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers and the ICAEW’s Sole Practitioner’s Conference. As Xero’s responsible adult in the UK I was lucky to enjoy the additional privilege of being invited to the ICB’s annual awards dinner on Thursday night at the historic Banqueting House on Whitehall.

I was impressed not only by the grand architecture but also by ICB’s Garry Carter’s vision for the bookkeeping profession and with the reverence and importance that was conferred upon bookkeepers by HRH Prince Michael of Kent (ICB’s patron) during his talk. In fact, it was telling that over the whole two days the most laggardly comments came from the representative of a very large UK accounting software vendor who shall remain nameless.

How can you create cross-platform business applications without coding that run natively on iOS and Android and work great offline?

Forget Mobile Application Development The diversity of powerful mobile devices in the marketplace poses a significant challenge for businesses wanting to create custom mobile applications. Each competing device type — iOS, Android, Windows Mobile — requires a different set of tools and programming skills. Each supported platform will multiply the cost and complexity of designing developing, debugging, testing and deploying custom mobile applications. When it comes time to update the mobile application, you can count on even modest design changes turning into significant development projects.
