Meanwhile, we give a hint of what "cloud computing" (literally "network computing") and why si reputa importante, soprattutto per realta' piccole, come professionisti, piccola media impresa e tutte quelle grandi organizzazioni dove l'informatica e i calcolatori non sono facilmente gestibili, come la scuola, perche' mancano le professionalita' e le risorse adeguate presso i plessi operativi.
Tablet, Netbook, Internet Tv, sono dispositivi la cui adozione e semplicita' di utilizzo rende ubiquita la possibilita' di accesso alla rete da parte di chiunque: da casa, in salotto, per strada, camminando, a scuola, ovunque noi siamo, possiamo connetterci alla rete internet (HTTP/TCP/IP) e tramite il browser http ( Chrome ) o le applet ( Android Market ) saremo in grado di comunicare via http (a particular network protocol) with various software applications and platforms that "run" or run from a computer that is online, in an unidentified place, which we call " cloud." Using the standard architecture SOA Service Oriented Architecture is accomplished even a layer of online services, each of which carries features' that are published and made available to the entire "network" of applications.
So, on our terminal device, what we have in hand on the bench or in the lounge, we will have the GUI-only media that serves us to communicate with the computer, while all The work will be 'done in the network (in Internet cloud) for applications which we will not even know the real location. Suffice it to say that the computer on which "go around" these applications do not have a physical 'reality, but are instances of "virtual" computer (on which are then installed operating systems and applications) that have no physical substance, but "images" in memory of a cluster of many computers that can be "routed" from one to another depending on their workload. Of
free services (paid for by advertising ') provided by google we have already' said. The operating system Android (based on Linux and designed for tablet-mobile-television) and the browser chrome become an ideal environment, open to adapt to any type of terminal device and provide the basic platform for cloud computing, which is easily adaptable to any need, including the automatic management of school processes: administrative information , educational, socializing.
To develop and make available the services of cloud computing, there are several solutions, such solutions totally free of Amazon and Ubuntu . The "Italian Cloud" is made available Telecom Italy, which also gave birth to a laboratory specifically devoted to school . Dschola The association provides web hosting services for all schools to do more than constant activity 'popular . The company ' CapGemini has just released a major project in Brindisi, at ITC Majorana, which gave communication in September.
The government directly provides a growing number of services, accessible directly from the portal http://www.vivifacile.gov.it/ in which stands the my school dedicated service to the school. interesting to read the thesis Everywhere School that creates a web portal dedicated to school mode 'cloud computing.
So this is starting to pick up all the processes of school experiencing the practical applications of cloud computing to include parents, teachers and students in administrative processes of communication and the definition of educational material.
