Which Operating system is not Hacked Yet? ......That is mainframe

Hello friends,

The only operating System & server which is not hacked yet, & not possible  in feature also is MAINFRAME. That is why almost all the banks, Insurance companies, & those who are dealing with money, use to prefer mainframe only. That is the most secured server in the world. 

        As it is most secured. on the other hand it is very very much costly. In the survey it is found that banks spend nearly 70% of their expenditure on IT infrastructure.

                 Windows is an operating system started off as being meant for one user only, and they could run only one program at a time, and it was written to manage real devices in the PC, that is, it was limited to what the PC had.

                       When it was realised that this approach meant that programs which required more hardware capacity (like memory) could not be written, special routines that virtualised hardware had to be written. However, the underlying operating system files etc were all open to anyone who wanted to install software, that is, any programmer could overwrite system software causing malicious or unintended damage.The operating system grew organically and tries to mimic multi- user environment, virtualisation and allowing multiple programs at the same time etc, but this has been developed as additions and not designed from ground up. Hence the stability issues and issues of hacking because the entire system software etc was open for anybody to overwrite with their own code.

                                Mainframe OZ (zOS) on the other hand was written ground up to be virtual,multi user system, multi program system. The hardware was always virtualised and programmers do not deal with physical limitations of the system.

 Next, Operating system files and production code always was protected by the creation of a strict discipline and the creation of special libraries from which they could be run. This is controlled by system programmers.

          Application programs never replace operating system files unlike in Windows or UNIX (to a lesser extent).

         This created this environment never to be hacked to date.

                   If you want proof of this claim, consider what you can find by searching news archives and trade journals, looking for references to mainframes and data loss, hacking, security breaches, and similar topics. Recent research included checking the archives of ComputerWorld, InformationWeek, and The Wall Street Journal for reports of unauthorized access of any traditional mainframe environment via userid/ password exploitation, corruption of a mainframe-based networking resource, or contamination of a mainframe sys- tem software component.

True Facts about Mainframe

Hello Dear Friends, 
     I am herewith some of the true & important facts @ Mainframe, Its Very Interesting & much more demanding. So some of the facts are as  
 
Mainframe facts.....!!!!!

1. All 25 of the world’s top banks still use mainframes, while 71 per cent of global Fortune 500 companies are mainframe clients as well. Additionally, nine out of the top 10 global health insurance providers process all of their high-volume transactions on a mainframe. This shows that, despite incursions being made by software as a service (SaaS) providers, an overwhelming majority of the world’s big business still value the reliability and security of mainframes, particularly for mission-critical functions.

2. Around 63 per cent of mainframe sites in the Asia-Pacific region believe the lack of skills in the current generation of mainframers is a major concern. In Europe, 66 per cent of mainframe sites believe mainframes are already suffering from a serious skills shortage.

3. About 72% of mainframe sites have mainframe staff eligible for retirement. (CA 2011)

4. The mainframes hold approximately " 70 % " of the entire data stored in this planet
5. The latest ones can support over 25,000 users
6. They can support devices spread over 26 miles using fibre optics
7. The size of the "basic" OS is about 14 GB
8. This OS comes in about 57 magnetic tapes, But latest with 4 tapes
9. It takes ATLEAST a month to install and customize a basic mainframe OS configuration
10. It takes around 3 full days for a mainframe to get up and running
11. Basic configuration for development environment costs 8 crores (hardware + Software)
12. A full team of qualified system operators are always required to be on stand by to ensure successful operation
13. Earlier mainframes were provided with cooling pipes through which cold water was passed to cool the system - TCS have one in Chennai facility
14. Recent mainframes have variable speed fans in the cabinet to keep it cool
15. Have u ever heard of a mainframe system being hacked??? Mainframes are one of the most secure data installations ever
16. You cannot buy the mainframe OS, but u'll have to pay a license to use it. The cost?? cool ......1.5 crores a year.
17. Finally, mainframes today r the most preferred data servers for even the most hi-fi of the organizations!
18. So far no virus has attacked Mainframes
      
    So this is how mainframe is...!!!!

DB2 – faster than a speeding bullet?

DB2 – faster than a speeding bullet?

Last week, IBM sent out press releases saying that it has achieved the industry's highest ever TPC-C (transaction processing) benchmark using a Power Systems configuration with DB2, hitting 10,366,254 transactions per minute. And in case you don't realise just how fast that is, the press releases goes on to inform us that it beats HP's best result by more than 2.5 times and Oracle's best by more than 35%!

We're told that: "The results place IBM in a unique position as the undeniable leader. With these new clustered results (and with the long-standing single system result), IBM has demonstrated its ability to scale up to handle higher transaction loads and to scale out to optimize more types of workloads than the competition."

This result is the largest ever TPC-C result published (dated 17 August 2010) and was obtained on a cluster of three IBM Power 780 servers featuring a storage subsystem with 116TB of Solid State Drives (SSDs) and running DB2 9.7.

Just to rub in the fact that it beats the Old rival, Oracle, the press releases goes on to inform us that: "The IBM result represents 2.7 times better performance per core than the Oracle result, 41% better price performance, and 35% better energy efficiency per transaction. IBM's performance is also more than 2.5 times better than HP's best result, 69% greater performance per core, and 2.1 times better price/performance."

The new TPC-C benchmark result uses standard IBM software. DB2 9.7 has been around since June 2009, and AIX 6.1 was released in November 2007. IBM says that the selection of software versions reflected levels currently in use by a large number of their clients.

IBM highlights the fact that the IBM TPC-C results on POWER7 technology shows off IBM Storage technology in the form of Solid State Drives (SSDs), which enable higher throughput and lower response times. SSDs also provide reliability, lower energy usage, less cooling requirements, and the ability to reduce data centre footprints. The total storage used was over 800TB while the Oracle/Sun configuration had 686.6TB of total storage.

The Oracle/Sun cluster is 71% more expensive based on published price/performance relative to the IBM Power 780 cluster result. The total system cost of the Sun cluster is 26% greater than the total system cost of the IBM cluster. Because of different discount structures, care should be taken in comparing individual price components.

As a result of these differences, the TPC does not allow comparisons using TPC price information on anything other than the total configuration. The IBM Power 780 with DB2 9.7 result yields greater than 10 million tpmC for IBM (a feat Oracle hasn't accomplished) and significantly better price/performance for the IBM solution.

The configuration for this benchmark achieves an estimated consumption of 65.1 kWatts or 6.3 kWatts per million tpmC, 35% better than the Sun cluster energy consumption estimate of 73.9kWatts or 9.7 kWatts per million tpmC.

You get the idea anyway – there's more of the same in the press release. The bottom line is that IBM can now claim to provide performance in excess of double-digits (10 Million Transactions Per Minute), which, they say, no-one else can do.

after 3G and 4Gwht is there......its 5G comming soon

First (1G), second (2G), third (3G) and fourth (4G) generations of mobile technology are not new to us, however, 5G WiFi is, something that we got to hear in 2012-13.
Now the Question is What is 5G exactly? 

           5G WiFi refers to 802.11ac, the latest version of WiFi technology. 802.11 is a set of IEEE standards that govern wireless networking transmission methods. They are commonly used today in 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n versions.

            It is also termed as Gigabit WiFi since it is the first WiFi technology that is capable of offering peak data rates of 1 Gbps or more, even up to 3.6 Gbps, compared to the 600 Mbps peak data rate possible with 802.11n, aka N or Wireless-N, 11ac’s predecessor. Now, why it is called the 5G WiFi is because it is the fifth generation of the technology after 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n.

      The first generation of WiFi 802.11a with 3Mbps speed was used during 1997-1998 period, the second generation, 802.11b, with 11 Mbps was used during 1999-2001, the third, 802.11g, with 54 Mbps was used from 2002 to 2006 and the fourth 802.11n with 600 Mbps was used from 2007 till 2011. Development of 802.11n began in 2002, but it took seven years for the finalization of this standard.
              It was Broadcom who first started using the term 5G WiFi when it launched its 802.11ac chips, early this year and also has a website http://www.5gwifi.org dedicated for this.
