What is ScaleConf?
Now in its fourth year, ScaleConf is a three day annual conference centred on the Internet and the need to build websites to sustain the rigors of today’s traffic and usage. With WiFi sponsored by RSAWEB, this year’s ScaleConf took place at Kirstenbosch Gardens from 4th – 6th March and included a host of local and international speakers such as Franz Struwig from Garmin, Willem Van Biljon from Takealot and Charity Majors from Parse / Facebook, to name but a few.
That magic space called ‘the Cloud’
The ‘Cloud’ is such a massive word/concept that, until recently, in my mind, it could only exist in an unreachable place, far up in the heavens, and more and more I have found myself wondering, “what exactly is the Cloud?” and what does it really mean for businesses?
The Inner City Ideas Cartel is situated in the centre of the Cape Town CBD at 71 De Waterkant Street above the bustling Hemelhuijs restaurant. The building exudes an energy that makes you feel as though there are boundless possibilities afoot and stepping off the street and into the high volume, glass, concrete and steel interior, I feel an almost tangible tense sense of excitement.
Much has been said about the vast potential of RSAWEB Flex Cloud as a product, but in this article I would like to focus on how this offering or ‘Platform As A Service’ (PAAS) can be applied in the real world of development.
We have recently launched the exciting new product; Flex Cloud, The easy way for developers to host scalable websites without worrying about admining servers. I thought I should take a few minutes to write down my top eight things you need to know about a product that is going to revolutionize software development in South Africa. Developers take note (Sysadmins you will also love how easy this makes your job). (more…)
As we head further into 2015 it seems that we are moving more and more into the digital realm, and that, like tape recorders and typewriters, paper will soon be something of the past.
At RSAWEB we have been moving across from paper to a digital environment for a while now, and as an Internet and hosting providing we are constantly striving to find new and innovative ways to make our work flows and day to day jobs easier and more streamlined – namely, via the use of the Internet and the Cloud.
