horde/imp/etc. has caldav/ical support and works fine w/ mobile devices.

While Alfresco doesn't have the bits about calendar integration, that's easily 
obtained from davical.

Device integration for things like calendars isn't that difficult but the lack 
of standards on for address books can be a real issue for things like the 
smartphones which allow a lot of telephone numbers per contact, and vary in 
mapping every day fields such as home addresses. Even Gmail doesn't completely 
solve it but handles the simple users rather easily.

How do you get them to sync with arbitrary sources?  My android phone
has its own calendar and merges things from the company exchange
server and my google calendar, but I don't know how you would add
another caldav source.   And I though ical was a file-level transport

Probably less arbitrary than you think because a calendar is essentially a URL 
and the mobile devices generally know what to do with them.

Horde/Turba/Kronolith

horde can use ActiveSync

http://wiki.horde.org/ActiveSync

Davical

http://davical.org/clients.php

both can handle sync of Calendars  Address Books

I just haven't seen enough mobile devices/apps to know what is

in general, you would feed the same URL to an android device that you would 
give to iCal, Outlook, Evolution, etc.

wrt an android device...

Gmail - that's integrated into System = Accounts and you set up a Gmail 
account and it links Contacts  Calendars as well as mail though you can turn 
off the 'sync' for those services.

Exchange - that's integrated into 'Corporate Sync' which actually handles

apparently not a standard android feature but you can search caldav in market 
(now 'play' I guess) and you will see several clients which will add the sync 
feature.

I gather you can add 3rd party calendar programs that will do this too.

Seriously, though, I have had one server, an old Compaq ProLiant, that let 
loose a prodigious amount of smoke one day, and kept running.  For a while, at

 I don't understand how ANYTHING you do on a single server could be

Perhaps the definition of cloud has gone lower and should be called

It seems however that the definition is an online infrastructure which may:
provide applications
provide file storage
calendar
contacts
collaboration
communication
among a number of other things

and that these services are all available to 'users' on the cloud via:
servers
desktops
laptops
tablets
phones

As for how many servers? Well that is a matter of how many users you 
have, loads, storage capacity and just about anything else a single or 
bank of servers might do.

At the moment, our business has 4 people in four different locations and 
we want to better share our work. Seems like file shares are one aspect,

don't like putting stuff on Google. I see at least one of these allows 
you to run OpenOffice through the browser. I haven't really done a lot 
of research into this yet and really all I wanted was some ideas for a

Also, this would be a good exercise in learning a bit more of what is 
out there that our clients might wish to use. No, I'm not building a

You can do traditional shared files over a VPN across sites.  You
might look at ClearOS as a starting point for that and an imap server
that everything should be able to access.  It is going to be hard to
beat google for online apps, though - or even a good webmail
interface.

Totally, it has been taken way out of context and blown completely out of 
proportion.

Cloud, is what is depicted as a cloud on the topology diagram. It is a 
black-box service where data is sent to it and returned from it without having 
to know how it's handled in between.

It can be anything and everything. From communication services, to application 
services to gift wrapping.

Problem is when your in a highly regulated environment, you definitely need to 
know how it's handled in between and that agencies are monitoring and assuring 
it's done properly. You also want to know that  these clouds won't disappear 
overnight leaving you scratching your head. The majority of cloud services 
these days just aren't there yet, hell they're still trying to figure out SLAs.

I am going to point you to something non-free and very windows based,
but it does almost exactly what you want (at least in theory).  It is
called Go-Global Cloud.  There are workgroups workspaces ... windows,
linux, and phone clients ... and  it can use LDAP authentication as well
as active directory.

[CentOS] Cloud on CentOS Server

I'm looking into adding a cloud to one of my servers.

Criteria:
security
accessible via Windoze, Android Mobile Devices, iPhones, iPads, Macs
Preferably something living under one of the better repos, such as epel
An active project doing updates and adding features.

I don't suppose any of you have ideas for this? ;)

 I don't understand how ANYTHING you do on a single server could be

Well, if it catches fire and produces lots of white smoke ...

Re: [CentOS] Cloud on CentOS

2010-04-15 Thread Scot P. Floess

You mention 200 locations...  Do you want to consolidate the application 
to 1 location and those locations use this?  Not clear to me what it is 
you want to accomplish...

 I am deploying an application for about 200 locations, and I think cloud is
 what I am looking for

 Can you be a little more specific. Do you want the Virtualisation, the 
 Management, the Storage, the Processing. Basically what do you want to 
 do with the cloud? There are so many options of building the cloud
stack.

 I am about to write how to get hadoop on CentOS if you want some 
 information on that?

Thanks Didi, yes I would love to lay on hands on the information. I am
deploying
an application for about 200 locations. We want to centralize and have a 
more robust infrastructure

in real life, clouds are fuzzy and wet, and can take on many shapes and 
forms.

Get familiar with

Xen or KVM or VMWare
LVM
maybe Eucalyptus, OpenQRM or similar
maybe VLANs or MPLS/VRF

build cloud.  I *oh* so hate that term!
