The past twenty years have brought an immense proliferation of computer hardware and software technology for business enterprise and technology driven individuals on a global level. Most devices became obsolete within a five year cycle. What has been left in place are hundreds of millions of workstations, a significant percentage of which could be categorized as intelligent - initially DOS driven (a relatively small number still are thin clients), primarily Microsoft Windows, and UNIX variant driven machines that are networked and connected to the Internet. There is an emerging wireless infrastructure in the public domain used by large IT driven organizations - Fortune 1000 corporations, government municipalities, healthcare providers and consulting companies. With an ever increasing number and variety of reliable high speed connections, IP addresses readily available via DHCP (and with IPV6 well on the way), and being utilized through multiple workstations in small business enterprise and households as well as large business enterprise, the foundation for a web server in every business and home and an IP address assigned along with a social security number at birth may well be next. It is the onset of the age of the web server. |

There are still components of the emerging web server equation which have to be determined: dominant web server software (WebSphere, WebLogic, Oracle, Apache or IIS), base operating system, which until recently was assumed to be Microsoft centric, and whether there will be a single proprietary scalable database or long term interoperability among - DB2 UDB, Oracle, SQL Server, and Sybase. When it comes to installing, administering, writing code, and optimizing web server performance, SYS-ED has a unique set of resources to draw upon. Our system consultants average 30+ years in the field of information technology (it was known as data processing when we started!), and our collective experience includes hands-on consultancy assignments on all the web server platforms, most of the time starting with the initial release of the software and the implementation performed in hybrid environments. SYS-ED has been there done experience with:
Other still to be determined details will be the degree of importance in having a full featured router in technology driven small business enterprise and households. And the xfactor in the short run, which is holding everything up, is the requirement for reasonable security and safeguards regarding virus infestation. Web servers are the emerging IT frontier. Web server technology and the state of the evolving market is being driven by increases in bandwidth and internetworking reliability and new hardware. It is being implemented by those organizations who have invested in the technological infrastructure and have the resources to make web servers an operational reality. However, as has been the case over the past century, the dispersion of technology will eventually become available to those individuals “in the know.” Innovators and Emulators: The Case for Training The classical business model is based upon a fundamental assumption that ongoing organizational entities can be classified as either innovators and emulators. Over the past few years, the innovators, and SYS-ED is one of them, have been out in full force upgrading hardware, increasing bandwith, installing the initial releases of the web server software, coding and debugging web enabled applications, primarily Java and propriety development platforms, such as WebSphere or Microsoft .NET as part of implementing a full featureset of web server functionality. We refer to our hard earned knowledge and mastery of challenging and problematic application development as consultant’s swagger. The results have been promising and a wide variety of issues and problems have been addressed along the way. It is this real world experience, guidelines for what truly works in practice (versus what the source software vendors documentation states), undocumented tips, and practical troubleshooting which makes SYS-ED’s instructor-led courses among the best in the IT field. Next up will be the emulators and there will be substantial numbers of business organizations and technology-driven people who will require web server training. SYS-ED is front and center with courses which teach web server fundamentals, administration, databases, middleware, development platforms and utilities. Few software or consulting companies offer both the integrated programs and a la carte unbiased professional web server training options that we do. And truth be told the software companies frequently call on SYS-ED to deliver the tough training assignment to their clients. There currently is no single standard for the programmatic implementation of web server capabilities. Nor is there a dominant proprietary standard. Both open source and proprietary software are being utilized in different hybrid combinations with one another. Some common scenarios that we have been implementing at client locations include:
In addition to the pure .NET and Java programmatic implementations, proprietary WebSphere, Oracle, and WebLogic development platforms have by design been integrating their development platforms with the open source scripting languages and Java SDK and APIs. No one is allowed to enroll in a SYS-ED course, without a consultation with our Director of Education. We review the project specifications and the operational objectives for the organization evaluating whether to send its employee for the training. The employee is only allowed to register if they have the appropriate background corresponding to the correct learning path.

So when it comes to your mainframe training needs, by all means contact web server companies and request the prerequisite information. Then contact SYS-ED and review our outlines, performance objectives, courseware and related training aids, dshapiro@sysed.com or dsilverberg@sysed.com.
SYS-ED web server courses are NOT open to the general public. Only employees sponsored by Fortune 1000 corporations, government municipalities, healthcare providers, consulting companies, and mid-sized businesses are allowed to enroll in a SYS-ED course and ONLY after a telephone consultation with our web server systems consultant/curriculum manager. This is essential for ensuring that the individual be placed in the course which corresponds to the employer’s operational objectives, operating environment, version of software, and development platform.
