The explorer of good times in the expedited service of Kerala

Mr.Michael Joel Parin or Mike Parin, the great explorer of good times rejoice every moment of his expedition by learning each aspect of the places he visit. This time Mr. Mike has arrived in Kerala, India to get trained in RHCDS and CCNA. He came to know about IPSR, through his colleague and found the place to be the best in training. According to him, the best aspect of being in Kerala is the warm welcome and receptiveness granted by the people of Kerala. 

Mr.Mike Parin is an RHCE living in the Czech Republic with six years of experience in HP-UX/Red Hat Linux System Administration and a couple of years before that he was working as a Debian Linux admin/PHP developer. He has a very little experience in Cisco but has prior knowledge in it imbibed over the years. He also earns a business degree majoring in Information Systems.

Mr. Mike’s thrive for exploring new places has taken him to India several times.

He possesses a vast knowledge of  India which he gained over frequent flying to India. The first visit was for a couple of months through many of the major tourist sites including Delhi, Agra, Varanasi, Goa, down to Bangalore, Chennai and Pondicherry, back up to Calcutta and Darjeeling.  Another time was for five months with his wife, trekking for three weeks in the Zanskar region in the Indian Himalayas and traveling just in the North West states like Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Rajasthan and Gujarat. Being an Australian guy, who would obviously be sports mad; Mike on both the trips managed to watch some Australia vs. India test matches too.

IPSR Team cordially invites Mr. Mike Parin and we wish him all the success.

Art of Training is the expertise synthesized with Passion

Training is like an art to be enjoyed by the observer and the doer. Like an art without passion fails; learning fails when training is not satisfactory. According to Mr.Walid Shaari, Libyan British who was at IPSR Solutions to undergo training in SE Linux Policy Administration - IPSR follows a systematic and time-bounded training technique implemented effectively by the skilled trainers at IPSR. The inestimable possession of IPSR is the truly efficient Red Hat Certified trainers, which is a fact without question.

When Mr.Walid was sharing his thoughts with us, he seemed to be very precisely speaking about the course and the training as such. The credibility of any service is authentic only when it’s heard from the mouths of the

enchanted clients. “Mr.Sanju, my instructor from IPSR taught the course very well. His teaching technique is good. He basically doesn’t go over the slide straight away. He gives a small brief before the class starts like what are the core skills, the core tools and the core functionalities that need to be studied in one chapter and what are the objectives. He goes over the theory, he goes over the concepts and then he goes over the slides and sees if everybody is understanding what he’s saying and then we do the labs. We don’t move to the next chapter unless we finish the labs from the previous chapter. The time is relaxed and the environment is informal. There is lot of flexibilities, there is room for questions and everything I think is perfect. Specifically when you are coming for training and exams this place is the best. The trainer was able to deliver Red Hat objectives. He had his own style of delivering it and the workshops are also good”.

Mr.Walid was bewitched by the training procedure adopted by IPSR and this adds a feather to cap of IPSR’s success stories.                                     

Of course he is captivated by the welcoming behaviour of Keralites, India. He tags people of IPSR  as “Service Oriented” which is quite enough to depict how comfortable he felt while his visit to Kerala and especially IPSR.

UNION OF MINDS - in the blissful land of Uniting Cultures!

 When people from different countries meet, it’s not just the union of cultures but it’s something which reveals that the human beings belong to the same species distinguished by languages. Here Mr. Ijere Ude Ijere and Mr. Emeka from Nigeria and Mr. Mostafa Hamoda from Egypt met at one of the World’s Best Red Hat Training Partners, IPSR in India, the land of uniting cultures. There they began their journey to the new world of knowledge, together without failure.

“Beautiful India, Lovely Cochin with Interesting Experiences” – the tag Mr. Ijere Ude Ijere knot to the educational tourism package in God’s Own Country. Kerala, the state with highest literacy rate adds a crown of acquisition that it’s the paradise on earth draped by greenery everywhere. Infrastructure, facilities, faculty, hospitality and the training was designed to meet the global standards and the words reveal how delighted the trio felt deep inside. When perfect blend of quality and productivity comes in, the transcending joy proliferates.

 The unexplored, unexplained joy what we feel deep inside when we meet people from far away continents is the fact that they are imbibing what we are conveying, whatever be it, whatever our mind speaks which is not even understood by our mates, at times. That’s what reveals the truth that our roots are tangled in between so strong that no hindrances of race or languages can break the bond.

The enlightening of the souls is possible only through knowledge. Here we share the ideas, exchange the views and it’s not just the learning process happening. But a varied process in which an entire personality is changed with along with career leap through the certification gained from the educational tourism programme offered here. “Before coming to India my friends told me that I’ll find India to be uncomfortable but I found it the other way, after I arrived here. The hospitality is great. I’ll be coming to India again”, Mr. Mostafa Hamouda specifies about India.                                         

                                                            

When they bid goodbye we realize that Union of Minds makes them treasured and precious in our hearts.The sweet reminiscences they take along with them keeps Kerala close to their hearts not just for today or tomorrow but forever. 

It’s the co-creation technique that applies to the development of IPSR Boot camp.

For ipsr it was the 17th bud that blooms in the golden valley of triumphant RHCDS. Mr. Moustafa Hammouda ElDesouki from Egypt by profession serves Ministry of Qatar as Linux system Administrator. His crave to master Linux from the most tech-fertile, Linux rich and conducive environment took him to IPSR - the Penguin castle at the royal abode of the queen of Arabian Sea.

“I was wondered about the hospitality given for me, honestly I dint expect all of these….Mojan K Iype….the perfect TEACHER….no words for him, the methodology he adopted was  brilliant, THANK YOU for the support. Special thanks to Mr. Maurice who was there for me from the beginning…I expect the same for all other modules…”

The team ipsr is hopeful that his RHCA dream too would come true this year itself…..

Linux: a stuff of collaboration and master of perfection

Despite, many ridicule and challenge in the inception, the collaborative stuff Linux has set fire to an explosive revolution in IT. Today Linux is dominating the most potential techno powered zones like mobile devices, web infrastructure, data centres, supercomputing, cloud computing and many more. The penetration of linux to a common man’s life space is quite relevant from the following figures. It is estimated that Over 850000 android phones running linux activated every single day compared to 30,000 windows phones according to latest reports.  Over 700000 TV are sold every day most of which are running linux. 8 out of 10 financial trades are powered by linux, 9 out of 10 worlds super computer runs on linux. Google, face book, amazon.com and twitter are powered by linux.

When linux make such a big leap in the techno front and become a throb in the pulse of all social medias it would be a matter of interest to know How is linux developed? And how the development project is networked?

Unlike other operating systems Linux is build collaboratively across companies, geographies and markets resulting in the largest collaboratively development project in the history of computing. It is amazing that just from 2005 over 8000 developers from 800 companies contributed to the linux and these collaborative processes resulted in the contribution of 15 million lines of codes. This is not about the sheer number of lines of codes it is also about how quickly and about how linux is developed and released. To add wonder to astonishment a major new kernel comes about every 2-3 months compared to years of competing operating system

Developers make changes in the individual unit called patches. It describes the lines to be changed added or removed from a source code. Each patch can add new features, new support for a device, fix a problem and improve performance or rework things to be easily understood. Once a patch is developed it is mailed to developers mailing address. Patches are accepted by senior kernel developers or maintainer who manages hundreds of section of kernel. When this is accepted it is a guarantee that it goes to the main line. Then it is set to more extensive evaluation, when the maintainer finishes the review he or she will sign on the patch and send it to linux creator. Linux foundation fellow Linux Torvalds who has the ultimate authority on what is accepted in the next release. Almost 10000 patches goes into every new release and about six patches are applied to the kernel every hour

Thus Linux rate of development is simply unmatched and hence could claim the title the master of innovation and perfection

What is next????  Because together the emperor is ready with an empire of opportunities, and that the questions sustains is ARE YOU READY TO ENJOY IT????

With Linux in the Industry

The scenario of the IT industry in the recent past mirror a drastic growth in the open source technologies  Linux related accomplishment over these year tend to view the industry as a barometer for gauging the efficiency, scope and immense possibilities in this sector. The advancement in embedded and mobile platforms has integrated open source solutions into platforms such as automotive computers, android-based mobile devices, tablets, Chrome books and many other related areas.

With the establishment of the Open Stack Foundation and the maturation of Big Data platform open source has paved the toehold in the cloud market. Despite of this huge accomplishment Linux foundation paid relatively little heed to the success. The issue is highly topical, perhaps these technologies are open source but not powered with Linux Kernal but sill their prevalence in the enterprise cloud infrastructures means Linux.

Recently Ubuntu has launched an intense development effort to port Linux over to Goolge’s Nexus 7. This would be a promising effort for the fact that Nexus device sales continue to rise and availability on popular standard platform like Nexus would make it easy accessible in reasonable pricing. Also a notable explosion in the sales of the system with desktop Linux pre-installed has opened the possibilities to substitute proprietary software from desktop environment. Dells Project Sputnik which released a high-end Ubuntu based laptop might turn to be a big deal in US and Europe. Thus commercialization of desktop Linux has been a remarkable development in the open source channel.

Booming Asian Market shows an even higher percentage of respondents looking for Linux talent. Nearly nine in 10 (86%) of survey respondents from Asia say that hiring Linux talent is a priority in the year ahead, citing an increased use of Linux as the primary driver. This is consistent with reports about the increasing use of Linux among consumer electronics makers largely concentrated in the Asia/Pacific market. Hence for people with well-honed Linux skills and up-to-date training, the job market is thriving — and the opportunities put Linux professionals directly in the center of disruptive and exciting innovations that are changing the way we work and live.
