WordPress blogging platform reveiw

JBrock Consulting Inc

JBrock Consulting Inc is creating a new eCommerce site to support the mission of helping business and individuals succeed in business as entrepreneurs.  We have deployed an internal WordPress development system for testing using Microsoft WebMatrix development application.  In conjunctions with setting up a new WordPress site, we are reviewing and updating our development platform.

The first step in the process is installing and configuring WordPress. Our first preference was to host on our internal Web server.  This is the most cost effective option, but requires additional configuration and support.  We are using this as our back and recovery option.

The second option is to have our WordPress site hosted.  JBrock Consulting is a Microsoft certified, so Azure hosting and web application development was a natural fit. We were able to get our WordPress site up and running in a few hours. The speed and the performance of the site are very good and fits our needs.

The second option was to use Amazon Web Service (AWS) to host our WordPress site.  We reviewed the service and implementation process.  The configuration and set up of WordPress on AWS required a SSH or Putty to begin implementation. At the time we put, AWS on the back burner.

We are excited about rolling out our new WordPress site.  Please check out our new site at JBrock Consulting Inc.

Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure Review

We have began the process of migrating to a Hybrid Hyper V cloud infrastructure. The process of developing the next generation platform provides great value. The evolution of  Social media is driving big data housed on servers around the world.  The utilizing  of virtualization and the cloud, improves flexibility, redundancy, and overall management of the infrastructure.

The goal for our migration to virtualization and Hybrid cloud is to respond to customer needs faster, save money for our clients, and integration of onsite and cloud infrastructure.

The following benefits can be realized by Azure cloud infrastructure:

1. Azure Stream Analytics provides insight into devices, sensors, infrastructure, and applications.
2. Azure Document-DB none SQL query and transaction processing.
3. Increased privacy protection and improved security compliance.

We are implementing Azure automation to save time and money completing cloud management tasks. We are looking to improve operations and customer services utilizing Azure platform!

Google business Apps corporate email migration

The corporate cloud email migration to Google business Apps has advantages and disadvantages.

The advantages of Google cloud email are: savings related server builds, email licensing, spam, greater disk space for user inboxes.

There disadvantages to Google email in the cloud are: having to migrate Corporate email to Google cloud, switching DNS servers, Google sync issues (very slow), lost emails, calendars, and contacts to mention a few.

Having Completed a migration, there many challenges, difficulties, and frustrations involved.

One thing to consider when migrating to Google business Apps is mobile Cellular devices. Google Apps connector for Blackberry Enterprise does not work well with Blackberries. Typically mobile users must be migrated to Andriod devices for the solution to work. That being said, good luck if you are considering a move.
