Google Apps for local government

September 17th, 2009

googleEveryone benefits from cloud computing, though few stand to benefit more than government.The cloud helps agencies at all levels increase productivity, cut costs, keep pace with technology innovation, and become more open and transparent with their citizens.


That’s why we were pleased to join other industry leaders today at NASA’s Ames Research Center to hear Vivek Kundra, the CIO of the US Federal Government, announce the launch of Apps.gov. Apps.gov is an online storefront that makes it easy for federal agencies to browse and purchase cloud-based IT services from a variety of service providers, including Google. The cloud is coming of age, and we applaud the Obama Administration’s efforts to ensure our government realizes its many advantages.

We also want to do our part to make it easier for government to transition to cloud computing. We recognize that government agencies have unique regulatory and compliance requirements for IT systems, and cloud computing is no exception. So we’ve invested a lot of time in understanding government’s needs and how they relate to cloud computing. To help meet those requirements we’re taking two important steps:

  • FISMA certification for Google Apps. In July, we announced our intent to secure certification for Google Apps to demonstrate compliance with the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), the law defining security requirements that must be met by all US Federal government information systems. Our FISMA process is nearing completion. We will submit a Certification and Accreditation (C&A) package to the U.S. Government before the end of this year. Upon review and approval of the Google Apps C&A package, agencies will be able to deploy Google Apps knowing that it is authorized to operate under FISMA.
  • Dedicated Google cloud for government customers in the US. Today, we’re excited to announce our intent to create a government cloud, which we expect to become operational in 2010. Offering the same services and features as our existing commercial cloud (such as Google Apps), this dedicated environment within existing Google facilities in the US will serve the unique needs of US federal, state, and local governments. It is similar to a “Community Cloud” as defined by the National Institute for Science and Technology. The government cloud will allow Google to manage and meet additional government policy requirements beyond FISMA.

assumes importance. It involves the successful removal or pushing back of negative search engine results through an increase in the


number and appropriateness of affirmative search results. The bad is diluted to make way for the good.

Google voice to set new standard in business

June 30th, 2009
167449-google-voice-logo_original

Google Voice is a front-end for all of your phones. It assigns you a new phone number that you can then use as your primary number. You then get to decide who gets routed to which of your phones, either individually or as part of a group. You can also personalize voice mail greetings depending on the caller.

Google Chrome 2.0 : download now

May 22nd, 2009

Improved New Tab Page: The most requested feature from users was the ability to remove thumbnails from the New Tab page. Now you can finally hide that embarrassing gossip blog from the Most Visited section.

Full Screen Mode: If you’ve ever given a presentation or watched a large video using Google Chrome, you might have wished you could use every last pixel on your screen for the content. Now you can hide the title bar and the rest of the browser window by hitting F11 or selecting the option in the Tools menu.

Form Autofill: Filling out your information in forms over and over again can be tedious. Form autofill helps by showing information you’ve previously entered into the same form fields automatically. If at any point you want to clear out your information, that’s easy to do from the Tools menu.

Increased Stability: Google Chrome is more stable than ever–we have fixed over 300 bugs that caused crashes since launch.

Increased Speed: Making the web faster continues to be our main area of focus. Thanks to a new version of WebKit and an update to our JavaScript engine, V8, interactive web pages will run even faster. We’ve also made sure that JavaScript keeps running fast even when you have lots of tabs open. Try opening a bunch of web applications and then running your favorite benchmark. You can read more about V8 in our JavaScript scalability post on the Chromium blog.

Netbooks: The New Laptop

April 22nd, 2009

1

It occurred to me that netbooks could be perfect for businesses, especially for small businesses and mobile workforces. I’ve long been a firm believer that all employees in most businesses that use computers should have laptops. Laptops automatically increase productivity because workers can take the system home and keep working, if they choose to (some employees even work during the commute). Businesses have been reluctant to dole out laptops, though, because they’re typically more expensive and more fragile than desktops. When companies do give in and buy laptops, they have a habit of choosing heavy, slow desktop replacements. These things usually have cheap, underperforming parts and are too heavy and are a drag to lug back and forth to the office.

For business users who can’t use the smaller keyboard and 10-inch screen at the office: Have your company buy you a wide-screen display, a USB-powered mouse, and a keyboard, all for about $100. In the end, the company is still saving money and productivity.

AT&T Details 3G Upgrade

April 22nd, 2009

att_new_logo

AT&T will eventually switch over to Long-Term Evolution (LTE) technology as the backbone of its 4G data and voice network like rival Verizon Wireless, bringing the GSM (AT&T) and CDMA (Verizon) carriers closer as they both will rely on the same wireless architecture. However, before AT&T makes the bold move to 4G, it will still continue breathing life into its HSPA 3G technology.

AT&T is already ramping up its networks to 7.2 Mbps of data transfer speeds on its HSPA networks. Part of the move, as an executive for the company has stated publicly in a rare move, is to prepare the carrier’s network for a summer iPhone launch that will be capable of the faster data speeds.

Later this year, and early 2010, AT&T will skip the HSPA 14.4 Mbps upgrade and instead jump to a protocol known as HSPA+ before making the switch to LTE. According to Telephony Online, AT&T has had problems with the 14.4 Mbps HSPA network implementation. Moreover, jumping to HSPA+ will give the network a theoretical transfer rate of 21 Mbps.

Skype could cut your business costs.

April 21st, 2009

VoIP (voice over IP) calls cost less than traditional phone systems, while adding additional features. Skype says that about 35 percent of its customers are using the service at work, so the company has tailored features to help that audience manage Skype and save money. Especially with the recent iPhone and BlackBerry clients, Skype could cut your business costs.

Skype for Business mainly differs from a consumer account because IT departments can deploy the software across an office. Features can be activated or disabled by your administrators, such as file transfers or sharing peer-to-peer Skype traffic. Group policy templates let you modify these features for several people at once.

Upcoming Skype for Business tools will connect to SIP phone systems, so you can make SkypeOut calls through SIP, while incoming SIP can be routed to your Skype account. Similar support for Asterisk is also planned. Both are being tested now, with pricing to be determined.

Otherwise, most of the Skype for Business features overlap with consumer Skype, such as video calls and instant messaging. But you still might know know about other business-ready tools that are available in either case.

The Business Control Panel manages multiple Skype accounts, such as those of your employees. You can buy Skype credits for outgoing calls or phone numbers for incoming connections, with the Control Panel making allocations across your network. Also, if one person’s balance runs low, the software can automatically usher in new funds from your central cache.

Several add-ons can make the rest of your PC Skype-aware. Tools for Outlook, Office, Explorer, and Firefox enable you to instantly dial phone numbers from within those applications. Just click to call. Current and upcoming tools from Salesforce.com and Lotus Live add similar features.

Skype is still adding more business-specific features. But its basic tools–and management options–already make it a cost-saving consideration for a small office.
