>@PuneUserGroup event: (Microsoft Technologies) Transforming the Data Center
- Date: Sat, 2 Aug 10:00am – 5:30pm
- Location: Sumant Moolgaokar Auditorium, Ground Floor, Wing A, ICC Trade Center, SB Road
In the face of an exploding need for technology that supports the business, we need to transform the datacenter to increase agility and make it easier to deliver resources faster. Today, every area of the business, from marketing to sales to human resources, depends on technology. As a result, the need for IT resources is growing steadily. The move to cloud computing reflects the trend: as business requirements grow, a flexible option for keeping up with that growth is by accessing cloud capacity.
We are all seeing trends that reflect the growth of cloud—the question is: how can IT build a cloud strategy that makes sense? And just as important, how can IT continue to take advantage of the strengths of today’s datacenter while evolving to a new hybrid cloud model? One critical step is upgrading older resources. Now is especially timely for an upgrade as July 14, 2015 marks the end of support date for Windows Server 2003. This provides a wonderful opportunity for you to modernize your infrastructure.
Please join us and learn how latest Microsoft technologies provide great options for reducing cost and complexity, as well as simplifying management. As we mark one year until Windows Server 2003 end of support, we want customers to feel confident that they have a great
path forward. During this event, you’ll learn many features of Cloud and Datacenter management including:
- Computing with Cloud OS
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Still with Windows Server 2003? Migrate it!
- Virtualization and Cloud Backup
- System Center in Datacenter Management
About Pune User Group

PHP Reboot Meetup: Web Security in PHP
- Date: Sat, 2 Aug 11:00am – 1:00pm
- Location: GraciousSoft Office, First Floor, Above Jijamata Sahkari Bank, Karve Nagar Bus Stop
Speaker: Kapil Sharma, Technical Architect at Eastern Enterprise with 10 years experience in Web Development.
Web securities in PHP.
Most important factors for a web application are:
- Performance
- Maintainability
- Scalability
- Reliability and
- Security
Among developers, Security is one of the most ignored topics. In this session, we will discuss some of the common security threats for a web application and how we can fix them.
Web Security is technology/language independent topic and most of the session will not use any specific programming language. Thus any web developer is most invited to attend the event. However please note, towards the end, we will use simple PHP examples to demonstrate how can we practically take care of security issues.
About PHP Reboot
Today, web development is completely different from what it was two decades ago. PHP matured and developed many new features during this time. However one of the biggest problem with any old language like PHP is, developers have access to lot of old training material/book and learn things which were good in past but not in present.
Major and only goal of PHP reboot is to share and learn, latest and best offering from PHP. This is continuous learning curve and we are here to do it continuously.
Fees and Registration
This event is free and open for anybody to attend. Please register here: http://www.meetup.com/PHPReboot/events/187702032/
