Business managers, SMEs, product owners, auditors etc.<\/p>\n Session 1: Hardware, Virtualization, the Cloud,\u00a0Scrum and DevOps<\/strong><\/p>\n In this first session basic IT terminology and principles are explained. What is IT, what is a computer or a server?\u00a0\u00a0What is the difference between software and middleware? What is Open Source en\u00a0what are the popular Open Source solutions?<\/p>\n Almost all hardware is virtualized: hardware is assigned\/used multiple times. You will learn about the impact of Virtualization on, for example, your IT costs and how it enabled a new IT business model: the Cloud. What are the advantages of Cloud computing? When NOT to choose for the Cloud?<\/p>\n Agile\/Scrum is a popular way of work in IT and replaces waterfall methods like Prince 2. The basic principles of Agile and Scrum are explained. What are the different roles (Product Owner etc.) and what is their responsibility? What is a backlog? What are the disadvantages of Scrum\/Agile? What are the characteristics of DevOps? The basics of Continuous Delivery and Continuous Integration are explained.<\/p>\n Session 2: Internet, Application development and integration.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n The former CEO of Sun Microsystems said: “Privacy, privacy, there is no privacy, get over it!”. In this session the basics of the internet are explained (IP addresses and tracking cookies for example).<\/p>\n The most popular applications being built today are web-based: accessible through a browser. By explaining in detail how a web application works you will learn the basics of networking as well as the infrastructure needed to offer a secure and resilient (high available) web application.<\/p>\n The most popular programming languages are discussed, with special attention to Java\u00a9. The latest trends (for example Client-side development and Javascript) are discussed.<\/p>\n The implementation of new software in an existing environment (communication and data exchange with existing software) is critical for a successful implementation and determines to a large extend the IT costs involved (now and in the future). Is the software using standard communication (HTTP, messaging or file transfer)?<\/p>\n We will discuss the most important design decisions in software development. The advantages of using standards like WebServices (REST API\u2019s, SOAP and microservices) and Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) are explained.<\/p>\n Session 3: Resilience, High Availability, databases, operational management and encryption-SSL\/TLS<\/strong><\/p>\n How can I create a resilient IT infrastructure? How can I prevent downtime and solve problems quickly?\u00a0What is High Availability? Do I need Disaster Recovery (second data center) and how does that work?\u00a0How do I prevent data loss? Why do I need a database like Oracle\u00a9 or SQL Server\u00a9? Off course the answers to these questions have a high impact on your IT costs.<\/p>\n An important part of High Availability is operational management: how is monitoring implemented? How do you organize service management (incident and change mangement)?<\/p>\n As encryption (SSL\/TLS) is vital for IT security it is discussed extensively in this session.<\/p>\n Session 4: IT security essentials, the IoT, Big Data and Bitcoin (blockchain)<\/strong><\/p>\n Your IT security measures are for an important part determined by your data. What is the importance of the data for your business? The characteristics of the data (privacy sensitive?) determine what needs to be done to secure (backup) and protect your data: only the right people can read\/change the data. Software is merely a tool to get to the data\u2026<\/p>\n Viruses and threats are almost part of everyday life. The biggest threats are discussed: virusses, DDOS attacks, Man in the Middle attacks, Zero Day exploits, APT (Advanced Persistent Threat), OWASP top ten etc.<\/p>\n How do you determine which security measures are sufficient? Which tools do I have to use?<\/p>\n The latest trends in IT are discussed.\u00a0What is the \u201cInternet of Things\u201d and what are the possibilities for your business? What is \u201cBig Data\u201d and why is it important for AI and Machine Learning?<\/p>\n What is Bitcoin? How secure is Bitcoin and how does the Block Chain enable you to transfer money safely without using a bank? How can you secure your Bitcoin wallet?<\/p>\n If you have any questions or are interested in this course, please contact us<\/a> or use the form below:<\/p>\n\n <\/p> ![\"IT](\"https:\/\/webinfraacademy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/brian-mcgowan-SE5mmOZWqHE-unsplash-1024x682.jpg\")
