Ubuntu & Android as Used in Business
That is what our next presentation in the series
“Craftsmanship – Technology by Computer Scientists for Computer Scientists” (also known as Beer&Informatics).
Alexander Jachmann will talk about it on May, 16th, 2013 at our IF Academy at Unterhaching.
This is all about:
A practical test. – What exactly can the windows alternatives do?
Features, problems and solutions. An overview.
Alexander Jachmann works at IFTech AG as a system engineer, where he is in charge of virtualization and cloud projects. In private life, his interests are around Open Source and exactly cover the topics he is going to talk about.
Presenting Ubuntu & Android, Alexander will introduce two operating systems that are currently very fashionable.
The Linux Distribution Ubuntu is now making itself available on all the common platforms, such as Desktop, Notebook, Server, but also Smartphone, Tablet and TV sets.
Googles Android is “the one and only” operating system for smartphones and tablets.
During the presentation, we will also discuss and demonstrate how these two operating systems might be used in business.
The focus of the presentation will be on what requirements an enterprise must meet if the operating system is supposed to work properly. Questions will be: “What can Ubuntu/Android do?” and “Where will I, as the administrator, have to give additional assistance?” or “What requirements must be met if I wish to use Ubuntu/Android in the office surroundings and what is there to be careful about?“
There will also be quite something to witness. In a live demonstration, Alexander will show novelties for the actual use of Ubuntu/Android in an enterprise.
As always, it will be a concise and short presentation. We are talking a maximum of 30 minutes. After that, the podium will belong to the audience and they can feel free to ask as many questions as they can think of.
And, of course, after the presentation and discussion, there will again be a “Happy Hour” with Beer&Meatloaves. During the party, our Mr. IF-Lab, Dr. Frank Schütz will offer to try applications for what you have heard “on the spot”. You are welcome to do some hacking. There will also be a Nexus, including an Ubuntu tablet version.
