Google, IBM, Microsoft, VeriSign Follow Yahoo! To Join OpenID

Filed under: Miscellaneous — Tags: , , , , , — SticKer @ 1:11 pm

Google, IBM, Microsoft, VeriSign, and Yahoo! have joined the board of the OpenID Foundation, the organisation set up to facilitate access to multiple online services with a single username and password.

The move follows Yahoo! last month announcing that its accountholders would be able to use any web site supporting OpenID without creating a separate username and password. A year ago, Microsoft pledged to integrate OpenID 2.0 with the CardSpace identity management systems developed in conjunction with Windows Vista.

While the OpenID Foundation serves a stewardship role around the community’s intellectual property, the Foundation’s board itself does not make any decisions about the specifications the community is collaboratively building. However the Foundation claimed that “By bringing on these companies and their resources, the OpenID Foundation will now be able to better serve the needs of the entire OpenID community. In 2008, we can expect to see a larger focus on making OpenID even more accessible to a mainstream audience, the development of a World-wide trademark usage policy (much like the Jabber Foundation and Mozilla have done), and a larger international focus on working with the OpenID communities in Asia and Europe.”

At the beginning of 2006, there were less than 500 websites where OpenID could be used. Today there are well over 10,000, according to the Foundation.

Microsoft Releases Windows Server 2008

Filed under: Miscellaneous — Tags: , , , , , , — SticKer @ 11:48 am

5 years after the last server centric operating system from Microsoft, namely Windows Server 2003, Microsoft released Windows Server 2008 to RTM on February 4 2008. It is available for immediate download via Technet & MSDN.

Windows Server 2008 is a unique & different release in many manners compared to the old server operating systems. It is loaded with features of Windows Vista & reliability of Windows Server. For the first time ever Windows Sever 2008 installation is like Windows Vista, means a big image file which reduces the installation time.

However this isn’t all. Windows Server 2008 Is Microsoft`s Leanest, Meanest Yet. This is first version of Server OS which can be slimmed down to even a headless configuration & you can remove everything you don’t need from this server OS. The new Windows Server boasts a set of networking enhancements that dramatically boost file serving performance, and the product can be deployed in a new, stripped-down Server Core configuration, which significantly reduces the attack surface of systems hosting certain Windows Server roles.

It comes with IIS 7, Microsoft Hypervisor, Windows Powershell, Headless operation in form of Server Core installation & many other management enhancements. (more…)
