Storing data in the cloud has its appeal (it's relatively cheap, data is readily available yet secure, and business continuity is assured); however Wholesale Jordan Shoes , it also has its downside (it's often excessively slow). Though cloud storage is described as being "in the cloud," the reality of cloud computing is this: data must travel long distances using a complex system of wires, cables, servers, and data centers controlled by a myriad of carriers before ultimately arriving at the cloud service provider's datacenter where it physically resides on actual hard disk arrays. From there, copies of that data travel to the service provider's system data centers where it is "mirrored" should a disruption or catastrophe occur. All of this takes place relatively quickly Cheap Air Jordan Shoes , but it can have a noticeable impact on performance.
WAN acceleration can speed up cloud storage by creating a direct pipeline between your datacenter and your cloud service provider's data center. Instead of sending your data on a complex journey around the world using the public Internet, WAN acceleration takes it from point A to point B using a private, optimized network.
While various WAN optimization services exist with their own proprietary technologies, they share similar goals. The goals of WAN acceleration are to:
Optimize existing bandwidth
Improve efficiencies
Improve response times
Reduce data transfers when possible
Accelerate Web applications and email
Though accelerating cloud storage isn't generally one of WAN acceleration's most-sought after objectives, optimizing the WAN can also improve the performance of cloud storage. Here are the basics of how WAN acceleration works to speed cloud storage:
WAN optimization techniques are used to compress, accelerate Cheap Jordan Shoes China , and secure application traffic
Duplicate and repetitive data is removed
A private "pipeline" is established to route data from the WAN to the cloud storage datacenter
In order to create a private pipeline to transfer data to the cloud, you'll need to use a WAN accelerator or WAN as a Service (WaaS). These tools allow you to bypass the public Internet which is controlled by a mishmash of entities and prone to bandwidth and network traffic issues. Since various entities are involved, solving these issues is problematic and generally outside of your control. By moving to a private network, the entire pipeline is under the provider's control. Not only is it actively managed for performance, all service issues can promptly be identified, mitigated Cheap Jordan Shoes Free Shipping , and resolved without having to rely on an external or unknown entity to intervene. ?
WAN acceleration brings with it numerous benefits including: increased application performance, fewer bandwidth issues, and faster cloud storage. As a result, your entire team can work with both applications and data more efficiently. Whether accessing stored data or sending files to the "cloud," having a dedicated pipeline makes operations a snap with minimal latency. While optimizing a WAN has traditionally required a team of skilled network administrators, WAN as a Service providers make it possible for businesses of all sizes to take advantage of accelerated WANs and faster cloud storage without a huge investment in technology or people.
According to an Associated Press story, Florida State University professor Doron Nof claims he may have found a scientific explanation for Jesus' miraculous walking on the water of the Sea of Galilee. According to Nof, an oceanography professor, a rare combination of water and atmospheric conditions in the Sea of Galillee two millennia ago may have caused a patch of ice to form.
To observers, in this case, the disciples in the boat Cheap Jordan Shoes Online , the ice would have been hard to distinguish from the unfrozen water surrounding it. "I'm not trying to provide any information that has to do with theology," Professor Nof is quoted as saying. "All we've thought is about the natural process."
Against this theory are two strong arguments.
The walk on the water took place at the wrong season of the year for ice. According to John 6:10, "there was plenty of grass" at the place where Jesus fed the 5,000, a miracle that He performed earlier that same day (see also Matthew 14:19). Mark's account (6:39) describes it as "green grass." This historical detail indicates the event did not take place in the winter but some time during the season when grass is green. In fact, the context of John 6 and 7 suggests that it happened before the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) Cheap Jordan Shoes , which occurs in October. Sukkot involves sleeping outside in shelters made of tree branches, not an activity for sub-freezing temperatures, and the miracle apparently took place before Sukkot, closer to summer.
