So, after a solid week of nonsense, our network and software is back up and working perfectly - both old and new systems. Apparently, it was a cloud provider issue, now resolved, but it's making Boss rethink a lot of things. Boss has resisted having our customers input their payment info for this very reason. We take the info, call it in, shred the paper in a crosscutter. The payment information is kept on a second computer with no network connection, backed up onto an external HD. Every company we've worked with has treid to push us into taking payments online. Nope. Nope. Nope. We had one breach with a payment processor, one time, and haven't done it since.

S, N, C, and I are old-school - we used Outlook, Excel, and bookkeeping apps to keep ourselves running, generate sales orders and ship docs. Our picking software, CRM, and everything cloud-based was naturally tits-up, too.

SAAS is great until it isn't.

Twitter isn't going down all at once, but it was never going to. No site gets that big and popular without being pretty stable. I'd expect trouble to gradually pop up over the timespan of a few weeks and months as crucial but unexciting tasks get overlooked.

I'm no systems expert. I'm a programmer who writes code in a little silo, so I'm only peripherally aware of how systems, applications, networks, etc. all work together. But here is my best guess.

Here are some places Twitter might start breaking down.

Software is always changing, and some of those changes are in underlying tools. Look for the words "API" or "patch". If whatever uses it is not updated, it's going down. One example is how neopets games don't work anymore: Neopets doesn't own or develop Flash, but it relied on Flash.

This could be as silent as authentication protocols. What this means is that different chunks of code are always asking other chunks of code to do things for them, for example when I tweet from my phone, my phone asks Twitter to post the tweet. The tweet is not posted on my phone, it is posted on Twitter, where anyone can see it, browser or mobile. So Twitter needs to decide whether to post the tweet to my account. Well, my phone tells Twitter that I am signed in, but does Twitter believe it? Or is it a hacker pretending to be my phone? There are all sorts of protocols before Twitter will believe my phone. Think of it as whispering "The eagle flies at night," or perhaps "I like your shoelaces". Now, security experts are saying "No! That phrase is too common! You need a different phrase!" And if Twitter doesn't have anyone who can update their code phrase, they will no longer know whom to trust. I used this example specifically because authentication protocols are always changing.

In the same vein as Flash, a lot of third-party stuff is licensed. Annually or monthly. Something as big as Twitter probably uses a bunch of third-party stuff in its code. It's easier and more robust than writing it from scratch, just like me building my own table with my own hammer won't come out with a great product. I do not know what third-party software Twitter is using (one guess is it probably uses some image-scanning tool). Personally, I work at a small-medium company and we use third-party software for bug reports/ticketing, and we rent Cloud space from one of the big Cloud providers, and we contract with a company to watch our network traffic for hacking attempts. If we don't renew the contracts, then our stuff stops working. This won't happen to twitter overnight, but crucially, the people who know when it will happen, and to what, might be fired or gone.

Maintenance - data: electronic stuff generates data and logs all the time, and the more data you have, the slower stuff runs. We routinely archive our old logs and files. Some of it is very low-tech -It will take you several minutes to open an excel doc if it has 100k lines in it, and it will freeze when you scroll. A database is like a high-tech version of that. Twitter is always looking up who your mutuals are, what they posted, what you posted, etc. With something like 2/3 of its staff gone, are the crucial databases getting archived or cleaned? (For databases of tweets, it's probably automatically cleaned up. But somewhere down the line, there are probably a handful of somethings - folders, obscure databases, files etc - that are not. Here, we have a text log of user updates that someone manually archives every few months.)

Maintenance - incidents: sometimes something comes up that only a human can fix. One example of this is when new hire A's ID got typoed, and their account got merged with person B, and they can't access any of the stuff they need. Another example is a physical device goes offline, and the reason is it got physically unplugged. Does twitter have the staff to investigate and manually handle these situations? A few issues here and there is probably ok, Twitter probably has redundancies built in, and is not relying on any one person or device. But if it becomes a backlog, and issues pile up over time, there could be trouble down the line.

All this to say that Twitter won't be gone overnight. More likely it will gradually have more and more errors popping up, and get slower and buggier until it falls apart. I think this will start to become more noticeable after a month or so.

It sounds like Twitter is already seeing the first signs of trouble. Axios reports that Twitter has gotten bad at detecting copyright infringement. That may have been one of the third-party tools it was relying on.

Top Tools and Software for Simplifying Document Reviews

In today’s fast-paced digital world, document review is a crucial part of any business process, whether for legal contracts, research papers, or internal reports. However, manual document reviews can be time-consuming and prone to errors. To address these challenges, various tools and software have emerged to simplify the document review process. These tools help teams save time, enhance collaboration, and ensure accuracy. In this blog, we’ll explore the top tools for simplifying document reviews, starting with Cflow, which stands out for its unique workflow automation capabilities.

1. Cflow

Cflow is a robust workflow automation software that simplifies document review processes by streamlining tasks and approvals. It offers a range of features that help automate workflows, making document reviews more efficient and transparent. With Cflow, users can create custom workflows tailored to their specific needs, ensuring that each document is routed to the right people at the right time. The platform also allows for easy task assignment, approval tracking, and real-time collaboration, reducing bottlenecks and ensuring smoother communication between teams. Cflow’s ability to integrate with other tools, like email and cloud storage systems, makes it a versatile solution for managing the document review process in any organization.

2. Google Docs

Google Docs is a popular cloud-based document management tool known for its real-time collaboration features. With Google Docs, multiple users can access and edit a document simultaneously, making it perfect for teams working remotely or in different locations. The built-in comment feature allows reviewers to highlight sections and leave notes, which others can respond to. The “suggesting” mode allows reviewers to propose changes without permanently altering the document, which can later be accepted or rejected by the document owner. Its seamless integration with Google Drive makes it easy to share, store, and access documents from any device.

3. Microsoft Word with Track Changes

Microsoft Word continues to be one of the most widely used tools for document review, offering the well-known "Track Changes" feature. This feature enables users to make edits to the document, which are highlighted for easy identification. Reviewers can accept or reject changes as they go, ensuring that all feedback is addressed. Additionally, users can leave comments in the margins of the document to clarify changes or suggest edits. Word’s compatibility with other Microsoft Office tools, such as OneDrive, adds further convenience for teams already embedded in the Microsoft ecosystem.

4. DocuSign

While DocuSign is known for its e-signature functionality, it also offers comprehensive document review and approval capabilities. Users can upload documents, set up workflows, and collect e-signatures in a secure, streamlined process. DocuSign’s real-time collaboration features allow multiple reviewers to provide feedback, mark sections for approval, and track who has reviewed or signed the document. The platform also includes built-in security features, such as audit trails and encryption, making it an excellent choice for sensitive legal documents or contracts.

5. Adobe Acrobat Pro DC

Adobe Acrobat Pro DC is an industry-standard tool for managing PDF documents. It offers a variety of features for editing and reviewing PDFs, including commenting, annotating, and highlighting text. One of the standout features of Adobe Acrobat Pro DC is the ability to compare two versions of a document to easily identify differences. Its security and permissions settings are particularly valuable for sensitive documents, allowing administrators to control access and protect the integrity of the files. Adobe Acrobat Pro DC is ideal for businesses that deal with high volumes of PDF documents.

6. Zoho Writer

Zoho Writer is a cloud-based word processor that helps businesses collaborate on documents in real time. With its user-friendly interface and real-time editing features, Zoho Writer allows multiple users to work on a document simultaneously, which is particularly useful for teams located in different geographical areas. The suggestion mode lets users propose changes without altering the document permanently, which can later be reviewed and accepted. Zoho Writer also integrates seamlessly with other Zoho tools, which is advantageous for teams already using the Zoho suite.

7. ProofHub

ProofHub is a project management tool that offers features specifically designed for document review. The platform allows users to upload documents, add comments, and mark changes directly on the file, facilitating a smoother review process. ProofHub's ability to manage tasks and approvals alongside document reviews makes it an ideal choice for teams that need to keep track of deadlines and responsibilities. Additionally, ProofHub integrates with tools like Google Drive and Dropbox, making it easy to manage documents and workflows in one place.

8. Lumin PDF

Lumin PDF is a lightweight cloud-based tool designed to streamline document review by enabling users to collaborate on PDFs in real time. The platform allows users to add comments, highlights, and notes to documents, making it easier to share feedback. Lumin PDF also offers a feature that allows users to edit PDF documents directly within the platform, eliminating the need to download and re-upload files. This makes the review process much more efficient and ensures that all team members are working with the latest version of the document.

9. Miro

Miro is a versatile online whiteboard tool that is often used for brainstorming and collaboration. While it may not be the first tool that comes to mind for document reviews, its interactive and visual approach can be very effective for creative teams.

What is Cloud Computing Technology?

What is cloud computing? Cloud computing is a distributed computing method. The computer processing program is decomposed into several parts, and then processed by multiple computers in the cloud network, and the calculation results are fed back to the user. Cloud computing advocates the on-demand supply of data storage and computing power, which helps reduce the cost of enterprise investment.

The era of cloud computing has arrived, and everyone is paying more and more attention to cloud computing technology. Business users and customers have grown accustomed to using personal mobile apps like Facebook and Google Docs to work and interact on the go.

In addition to a modern web interface, cloud computing technology has many advantages, such as helping enterprises to speed up response, expand data storage space, and improve information access efficiency, reliability, and security. For enterprises that want to go to the cloud, it is equally important to grasp these advantages and how to deploy cloud services.

You may have heard that by adopting cloud computing, many enterprises have deployed state-of-the-art-technology, significantly increased business agility, reduced IT costs, and achieved excellent business results.

What is cloud technology?

Cloud technology refers to the integration of hardware, software, network and other resources through the Internet, and users can obtain services such as data storage, security, network connection, software applications and business intelligence thorough subscription.

To understand what cloud computing is, you need to first understand some terms, definitions and types of cloud computing. There is a lot of relevant information here, including an introduction to the terms SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, public cloud, private cloud, hybrid cloud, and the differences between them, as well as the scope of cloud computing. First, let's take a look at the many advantages of cloud computing.

Advantages of Cloud Computing

Safe and reliable

Highly secure and available at any time; fast response, allowing enterprises to access the cloud system anytime and anywhere; based on secure server operation, and equipped with a full-time security expert team to escort the enterprise; helping enterprises solve data redundancy problems and do a good job of remote backup.

High flexibility

Enterprises can obtain computing power on demand; flexibly increase or decrease servers, network connections or storage space; invite new users to join at any time; expand to new regions; all operations are fast and convenient.

Affordable

Support pay-as-you-go. Businesses can eliminate upfront capital investments in hardware or facilities, reduce IT staff time to maintain and upgrade systems, and free up money and resources for revenue-generating projects.

Keep up with the times

Businesses can always use the latest platforms, databases and software applications. In addition, businesses can take full advantage of various emerging technologies such as machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), and more, and enjoy the latest innovations at any time.

What are the types of cloud computing services?

The types of cloud computing are mainly divided into three categories: SaaS, PaaS and IaaS. Some providers offer these services together, while others offer each separately.

Three types of cloud computing services

Saas

SaaS refers to software as a service, where the software is hosted on a remote server and can be accessed by customers anytime, anywhere through a web browser or standard web integration. The SaaS service provider is responsible for the backup, maintenance and updates of the software. SaaS solutions cover areas such as ERP, customer relationship management (CRM) and project management.

PaaS

PaaS means Platform as a Service. This is a cloud-based application development environment that provides developers with everything they need to build and deploy applications. With PaaS, developers can choose the features and cloud services they need by subscription or pay-per-use.

IaaS

IaaS means Infrastructure as a Services. With IaaS services, businesses can "rent" computing resources such as servers, networks, storage, and operating systems on a pay-per-use basis. And, the infrastructure scales continuously without customers needing to invest in hardware.

Comparing Saas, PaaS and IaaS

After understanding the types of cloud computing services, we will compare them and compare the three models of Saas, PaaS and IaaS through object-oriented, resource provision, and usage to understand their respective characterisctics. Currently, most businesses use all three of services, and sometimes the line between them is not clear.

How to build a cloud platform?

Before understanding how to build a cloud platform, we need to understand the three types of cloud deployments: public cloud, private cloud, and hybrid cloud. Many enterprises choose to use multiple deployment methods at the same time to establish a multi-cloud environment.

Cloud Deployment Options

Public cloud

In the public cloud deployment model, services are delivered to customers through the provider's open network to customers. Public clouds are cost-effective and often multi-tennant, meaning that the cloud provider runs services in a shared environment.

Private cloud

In recent years, the search volume for "how to build a private cloud for enterprises" has continued to increase on major platforms. In the private cloud deployment model, services are maintained through a private network protected by a firewall. Enterprises can either build a private cloud in their own data center or rent a private cloud hosted by a provider. Private cloud has the highest security and controllability.

Hybrid cloud

A hybrid cloud mixes public cloud, private cloud, and on-premises infrastructure. In the hybrid cloud deployment model, enterprises can not only use traditional data centers or private clouds to store sensitive information, but also make full use of public cloud resources.

Comparison of public cloud, private cloud and hybrid cloud

Cloud security

Is the cloud really safe? On the one hand, cloud security depends on how the enterprise builds the cloud platform, and on the other hand, it is related to the capabilities of the cloud service provider. However, comparing the advantages and disadvantages of local deployment and cloud deployment, in most cases, cloud security is higher than local. The reasons are as follows:

Data storage location

On-premises means that the data is stored in local facilities. It is worth nothing that if you want to steal data, the first step is to know where the data is located. A large cloud service provider, on the other hand, has multiple servers deployed in different locations. As a result, it can be difficult for people to determine exactly where the data is stored.

Security

With and on-premises solution, employees are responsible for maintaining all security programs and software updates. Not long ago, a security breach occuring in a large well-known insurance company. A post-mortem investigation found that the company's IT department had not installed security updates for several months. A reputable cloud service provider, on the other hand, has dedicated security experts who are extremely professional and can ensure that your data is safe and secure.

Backup

When deploying traditional applications in on-premises facilities, enterprises are responsible for regularly backing up important information themselves. If you do your own backups, you also need to store the current copy offsite.

Deliver new technology through the cloud

How does an enterprise build a cloud platform? As enterprises migrate their businesses to the cloud, IT departments will be under increasing pressure. Not only must they transform from a cost center to a value-creating function, they must also spearhead innovation.

Cloud computing and platform-as-a-service (PaaS) can help CIOs who want to successfully maintain a bimodal IT environment that drives rapid innovation while keeping business-critical cores running smoothly.

Is Sonon really dead?

Yuffie’s mission in Midgar ended unsuccessfully. Shinra destroyed the base of her allies in Sector 7, she couldn’t get hold of the Ultimate Materia and, most importantly, Sonon died in order to save her.

His death gives a sense of closure to this newly introduced character. Although being quite short, the DLC is full of clever parallels between Yuffie and Melphie, Sonon's younger sister who got killed in front of his eyes during the Wutai war. He failed to save Melphie back then, but he can save Yuffie now.

But the big question is: is Sonon really dead?

The OST playing during the death scene is Seeing Melphie again. After getting stabbed, he has a vision of his little sister (a very touching moment tied to FFVII theme of reunion in the afterlife) accompanied by a bitterweet piano melody, that gets always softer until his last breath. But just when Nero seems to finish Sonon off, instead of mercilessly swallowing him into the darkness, he gently picks him up while the music digresses in an ominious and mysterious tone, hinting that his role may be not over yet.

But what could Nero want from Sonon?

I think the answer may be deduced diggin a bit into Dirge of Cerberus lore.

There's a not very well known entry related to the main DoC game (especially by the western audience since it had been released only in Japan and for a very short period of time): Dirge of Cerberus Multiplayer on-line. While some of the missions were later included in the international release of DoC, the plot of this game got lost despite its importance for the full understanding of the Deepground dynamics.

Here is a link for an excellent article from thelifestream.net that tries to keep a record of this expired entry, and here's a playlist of cutscenes from the game with English subtitles that helps understanding the main plot (btw, a great YT channel where you can also find localized playthroughs of rarities like DoC Lost Episode and Before Crisis).

A quick summary about Deepground and the Multiplayer game.

Deepground is a top secret facility created by President Shinra and located beneath the slums (remember that underground lab where Cloud, Barret and Tifa went to save Wedge? That's Deepground) where troopers and SOLDIERs - but also unaware civilians - endure severe experimentations that push their bodies and minds to the limit, aiming to create ruthless SOLDIERs with no moral boundaries. The elite DG SOLDIERs are known as Tsviets, like Weiss, Nero, Argento, Shelke, Rosso and Azul. To avoid any rebellion each candidate and Tsviet has a restriction chip implanted in their brain controlled by four Restrictors loyal to President Shinra. This mechanism is particoularly useful to control those Tsviets who don't make a distinction between allies and enemies.

Because of this the Tsviets started to secretly plot against Shinra until they finally understood how to cheat the system. Shelke and Argento found a way to implant a non-working chip in a candidate, so that they could kill the Restrictors. The protagonist of DoC Multiplayer is indeed this candidate (gender and name chosen by the player). Thanks to her special abilities Shelke tricked the candidate into seeing a supporting partner, Usher, who helped them into ranking as a Tsviet, and most importantly she instilled the hatred towards the Restrictors giving to the candidate false memories of a little sister brutally killed by one of them. In the end the candidate managed to kill one of the Restrictors but got stabbed as well. This is the final dialogue of the game:

Weiss: Can this one still be of any use?

Shelke: Negative. The prolonged SND [Synaptic Net Dive] has rendered most of the brain inaccessible. It's only a matter of time before it breaks down completely.

Rosso: Really? After all that hard work. What a shame.

Weiss: Then hurry up and find a suitable replacement. After all no one knows what the Restrictors really look like.

Azul: So we have to find another one? This is becoming frustrating.

Weiss: It can't be helped. Only one out of hundreds can make it this far.

Rosso: Ordinary humans simply aren't as strong as we are.

Weiss: Precisely.

Shelke: Well, it's actually quite simple. With the help of the HJ Virus I am able to hack into Patricia [computer system] and bypass security. Then all that's needed is to pick a suitable subject before it's implanted with the chip.

Weiss: Shelke, find a new one quickly.

The devs had never provided any time reference for the Multiplayer story but now, with Intergrade, we know for sure that the Tsviets are still under Shinra's control when Yuffie and Sonon met Nero on December 12, and, while the President will be killed the next night, it seems clear that Scarlet is the one who will take full control of Deepground until her defeat the next month.

Conclusion

My theory is that Sonon could be the perfect person to replace the Tsviet-candidate and the dead Restrictor, so that Weiss and the gang can pursure their plan of rebellion gainst Shinra:

Unlike many soldiers Sonon has proved to be an extremely strong and capable fighter standing up to Nero.

He has the right motivation as he seeks revenge against Shinra - especially Scarlet - for the death of his younger sister, which Shelke could further manipulate.

Unlike any other Deepground candidate, he has no working restriction chip implanted.

Sure, one could argue that Nero severely wounded him, but the game clearly reminded us before the battle that Nero can easily disintegrate the bodies of his victims, while he reserves a different treatment to this particoular character. And, by the way, this wouldn't even be the first time a Tsviet pretends to kill someone as Shelke did the same with the Tsviet-candidate. As far as I know the main DoC game never explained how the Tsviets overpowered the remaining Restrictors, who replaced the Tsviet-candidate or what happened to Argento - who isn't part of the DoC cast. Sonon might be the missing piece of this sub-plot that may lead to new secondary arcs that could tie a bit more Deepground to the main FFVII story.

 Profile

A warrior picked up by Rhodes Island outside of Sarkaz, Rose’s abilities in combat are mixed with a focus on extreme flames.

 Clinical Analysis

Increase Trust to 25.

 Imaging tests reveal blurry outlines of this operator's internal organs, clouded with abnormal dark spots. The circulatory system also shows signs of crystallization in some areas, denoting this operator as Infected

 [Cell-Originium Assimilation] 13%

 Rose has visible crystal formation on her body under her armor in multiple areas.

 [Blood Originium-Crystal Density] 0.28u/L

 Infection has spread harshly and is only minorly being pushed back by treatment. However, subject has no sign of failing health yet.

 Archive File 1

Increase Trust to 50.

 Rose is rather open instead of keeping to herself, being a bit more cheerful when outside of combat. Her focus is on seeing if others need assistance first, or finding good places around the landship to sleep in. She has refused to remove her armor as of late, resoning it as uncomfortable and rather painful for herself.

 Archive File 2

Increase Trust to 100.

Rose’s offensive capabilities are rather unusual. Even when using her flames, she tends to ignore how hot they can get, even when they start to burn at her arms and hands and need Medics to heal her. Oriopathy seems to have caused Rose to be hypoalgeniac, as she claims to "barely feel a thing" despite the damage done unto herself. And with flame temperatures reaching almost 1400 degrees C, I wonder if she even realizes how dangerous her flames can get.

History? Why you asking me about that, Doc Kal? Ok, ok, I won’t call you Kal! Kal’tsit, better? Anyway… So Victoria was ruled by Draco once? And there may not be many… Eh, not my problem.

What? I’m being honest here. I don’t care about that. I care about helping people, keeping us safe. I hate seeing people, innocent people die. I’ve seen it happen too many times out there, out with them. Reunion… A lot of people start out good, but then they go bad. And those bad people hurt innocents. History doesn’t matter to me, simple as that Kal’tsit.

Even then… Oh, ‘Ghost’ is telling me it’s time for the meds. I’ll see you later, Doc!

 Archive File 4

Increase Trust to 200.

Rose’s current weapon is a broadsword that has a shift setting inside of it. Made using materials that no longer need to be replaced after every fight, the weapon has a smaller blade that helps channel her flame arts better. However, at higher heats, the material can warp and change, so she tends to focus on firing flames like how Lappland attacks at range to keep the weapon from taking too much heat. The broadsword section itself is melted in some areas, and Rose has designed it to seem more like a mix of a cleaver and a sword. Her reasoning for the shape was only,

Ghost… Do you think they’re proud of me? I know you can’t talk back to me, just chime when my body is shit, but… I wonder if they’re proud.

Dad and the gang. They picked me up, and trained me up, and then we lost them all. Innocent lives because that fucker decided to… To do that shit! Turn on everyone because he could, because he wanted. I won’t end up like Lunarre. I can’t just go looking for him either.

I’ll meet him out there. Maybe he’s joined Reunion, or maybe Dunwall or whatever it’s called. But I’ll avenge them. The gang, Dad, all of the people from that village.

Hmm? Time already? Geez, thinking really does focus time doesn’t it?
