High Speed Cloud Computing: Startup ManjraSoft takes a shot at it!

Revolutionary new software which harnesses the power of networked computers to analyze data at high speeds is being developed by new start-up company Manjrasoft Pty Ltd and researchers within the University of Melbourne, Australia.

The technology enables Cloud computing, the next generation of utility/distributed computing, supporting high speed application processing across Windows desktops and servers

“Whether it be complex drug development problems, investment risk or conveyor belt logistics, the software “Aneka” offers versatility and cost savings to businesses by extracting greater productivity from existing infrastructure and data intensive applications,” said Associate Professor Raj Buyya of the University of Melbourne’s Computer Science & Software Engineering Department who has led the research.

The uniqueness of the software “Aneka” (Sanskrit for ‘many in one’) offers the choice of multiple processing models to analyze large scale tasks, whilst offering customers more versatility with the ability to negotiate time frames and pricing of tasks.

“Our point of difference is that Aneka supports multiple application programming models unlike others in the marketplace,” said A/Prof Buyya.

“This is changing the face of computing - making computing work the way we want.”

“This is about being able to readily distribute, scale, manage and quickly reconfigure computing tasks across discrete pieces of infrastructure,” he said.

The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS. When sending the IOCTL code FsSetVoleInformation with subcode FsSetFileInformation with a large buffer and underreporting its size to at max 1024 bytes, it will underrun and potentially execute arbitrary code.

Virtualization: GlassHouse hopes to cash in with its IPO!

GlassHouse Technologies Inc. on Tuesday registered to raise as much as $100 million in an initial public offering that, despite the company's financial losses, could prove a hit with investors drawn to its focus on "virtualization" technology. The Framingham, Mass., company offers consulting services for companies that use virtualization software to improve the performance of corporate servers and cut costs in their data centers. GlassHouse also provides Internet-based data storage. "Software-as-a-service," or SaaS, companies and vendors of virtualization products have proved popular among investors in recent years as corporate customers seek alternatives to conventional packaged software. GlassHouse, with roots in both sectors, will test the strength of that interest, said Peter Falvey, managing director with Boston investment bank Revolution Partners. "It will be a bit of a bell weather," he says. "It's not as though it's the 15th SaaS m...
