Starting From Scratch
Posted by Michael Bowen on Tue, 01/17/2012 - 03:40I'm going to pretend that I know nothing about computing and the industry. I think it's the only way I can maintain my sanity. I know too much and it is hindering my ability to do anything. So my new approach is to throw out all of my paradigms and start from scratch. In other words, I'm killing my strategic thinking and paying attention to the stuff right in front of my face.
HowTo: Use the Google Authenticator as a virtual MFA Device on the Amazon AWS Console
Posted by Rohit Amarnath on Sat, 11/19/2011 - 02:15
Amazon has supported the use of a hardware based MFA device. But the issue we have had as a firm that deals with many Amazon accounts, carrying 14 or more devices is just not practical.
So it was really awesome to see that Amazon released the ability to use virtual MFA Devices like the Google Authenticator. This is available for Android, Blackberry and the iPhone.
More Cloud, More Chef
Posted by Michael Bowen on Sat, 10/01/2011 - 03:21
I’ve been talking about my cloudy future for a while and it looks like this fourth quarter I will be crossing the chasm and spending more and more of my compute work up in those clouds. I’ve had an Amazon AWS account for a couple years but finally the time I’m spending working in those is clouds is closing on the amount of time I spend working in traditional environments.

Using Essbase Studio to build two applications at once. Drill through becomes drill across when you use parent child constructions.
Integrating AWS CloudFormation and Chef
Posted by Rohit Amarnath on Mon, 02/28/2011 - 04:09
The cloud ecosystem was a-thundering this Friday with Amazon Web Services' announcement on CloudFormation. Much of it positive, and a whole lot said about AWS whacking at the partner ecosystem. The twitter pundits who probably haven't used CloudFormation, Chef or Puppet were quick to claim that CloudFormation is a replacement. At initial glance I thought so as well, but then I looked under the covers and quickly realized that to the contrary, CloudFormation will actually simplify and make our recipes more portable.

Does SaaS BI Save Money? Questions you need to ask.
Posted by Rob Tholemeier on Wed, 08/18/2010 - 22:02
The proponents of SaaS BI claim that it is a lot less expensive to use cloud-based BI products vs. traditional on-premise BI. But is it?
The biggest advantage to SaaS BI is that it does not require IT to install and support BI or database software, which can save money, but is SaaS BI really less expensive than on-premise BI if everything is taken into consideration?
It depends on a several factors:
2010 Mid-Year Full 360 Update!
Posted by Rohit Amarnath on Sun, 08/08/2010 - 02:43
I would like to take a quick moment to speak about how Full 360 is doing. We have had broad interest in the Agile Data Warehouse and Oracle BI in the Cloud. We have signed up our first few customers, with our first customer going into production end of this month, our first OEM customer, and our first minor dustup with the analyst community over our use of the "Agile Data Warehouse" trademark.
The Agile Data Warehouse™ Trademark Controversy
Posted by Rohit Amarnath on Sun, 08/08/2010 - 02:06I have been called a number of things in my life (you should hear my ex-wife describe me), but "moron" isn't one I have heard often. So I was surprised recently to see Mark Madsen call me one on Twitter, in regard to our trademark on the brand "Agile Data Warehouse".
Use Cases for the Agile Data Warehouse
Posted by Larry Hill on Sat, 04/17/2010 - 02:33
Some of you might have attended our webinar February 4. When we put the webinar together, we felt that most of the attendees were interested in using the Agile Data Warehouse (ADW) as a Business Intelligence (BI) sandbox, or as a development and test environment. But we've found since then that many of the attendees had much bigger plans for the ADW than we had originally anticipated. So I'd like to discuss some of the market feedback we received and actual use cases that are now being developed around the ADW.
