Brief about Technologies
1) Java: Java is a general-purpose,
concurrent, class-based, object-oriented computer programming language that is
specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible.
2)
DOTNET:
Definition: The .NET framework is part of Windows and provides a controlled
environment for developing and running applications. Programmers do not have to
"reinvent the wheel" as the framework provides a rich library of APIs
that applications can use. This library includes functions for GUI, accessing
databases, communicating across networks and much more.
3) DATA Warehousing/ETL: In computing, a
data warehouse or enterprise data warehouse (DW, DWH, or EDW) is a database
used for reporting and data analysis. It is a central repository of data which
is created by integrating data from one or more disparate sources. Data
warehouses store current as well as historical data and are used for creating
trending reports for senior management reporting such as annual and quarterly
comparisons.
4) DATABASE developers: Database management
systems (DBMSs) are specially designed applications that interact with the
user, other applications, and the database itself to capture and analyze data.
A general-purpose database management system (DBMS) is a software system
designed to allow the definition, creation, querying, update, and
administration of databases. Well-known DBMSs include MySQL, PostgreSQL,
SQLite, Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Access, Oracle, SAP, dBASE, FoxPro, IBM
DB2 and FilemakerPro. A database is not generally portable across different
DBMS, but different DBMSs can inter-operate by using standards such as SQL and
ODBC or JDBC to allow a single application to work with more than one database.
5) DBA’s: The phrase "doing business
as" (abbreviated DBA, dba, d.b.a. or d/b/a) is a legal term used in the
United States and Canada, meaning that the trade name, or fictitious business
name, under which the business or operation is conducted and presented to the
world is not the legal name of the legal person (or persons) who actually own
it and are responsible for it. In other countries the expressions operating as
(abbreviated o/a) or trading as (abbreviated T/A) are used for a similar
purpose. The desired name might not have been register, or the business might
be owned by another company, franchisee, or a sole proprietorship, resulting in
all legally binding transactions taking place on behalf of the trading as name.
6) QA/Testing: Quality assurance (QA)
refers to the engineering activities implemented in a quality system so that
requirements for a product or service will be fulfilled.It is the
systematic measurement, comparison with a standard, monitoring of processes and
an associated feedback loop that confers error prevention.This can be
contrasted with quality control, which is focused on process outputs.
7)
C++,VC++: C++
(pronounced "see plus plus") is a statically typed, free-form,
multi-paradigm, compiled, general-purpose programming language. It is regarded
as an intermediate-level language, as it comprises both high-level and
low-level language features.Developed by Bjarne Stroustrup starting in 1979
at Bell Labs, C++ was originally named C with Classes, adding object oriented
features, such as classes, and other enhancements to the C programming
language. The language was renamed C++ in 1983,as a pun involving the
increment operator.
8) UNIX, Shell Scripting: UNIX was one of
the first operating systems to be written in a high-level programming language,
namely C. This meant that it could be installed on virtually any computer for
which a C compiler existed. This natural portability combined with its low
price made it a popular choice among universities. (It was inexpensive because
antitrust regulations prohibited Bell Labs from marketing it as a full-scale
product.)
9) Oracle Apps: Oracle Applications
comprise the applications software or business software of Oracle Corporation.
The term refers to the non-database and non-middleware parts of Oracle's
software portfolio. Oracle sells many functional modules which use the Oracle
RDBMS as a back-end, notably Oracle Financials, Oracle HRMS, Oracle
Projects,[1] Oracle CRM, Oracle Procurement, etc.
Oracle initially launched its
application suite with financials software in the late 1980s. The offering as
of 2009 extends to supply-chain management, human-resource management,
warehouse-management, customer-relationship management, call-center services,
product-lifecycle management, and many other areas. Both in-house expansion and
the acquisition of other companies have vastly expanded Oracle's application
software business.
10) Peoplesoft: (PeopleSoft, Inc.,
Pleasanton, CA, www.peoplesoft.com) A software company that specialized in
enterprise-wide applications for client/server environments. Initially
specializing in human resources, its package offerings covered the gamut
including financial, distribution, manufacturing and supply chain, plus
numerous vertical markets. All major databases were supported. Its products
were known for their modularity as well as their ease of modification and
customization using the PeopleTools development system.
11) Reporting Tools: Data is useless if all
it does is sit in the data warehouse. As a result, the presentation layer is of
very high importance. Most of the OLAP vendors already have a front-end
presentation layer that allows users to call up pre-defined reports or create
ad hoc reports. There are also several report tool vendors. Either way, pay
attention to the following points when evaluating reporting tools
12) EAI MiddleWare: Enterprise application
integration is an integration framework composed of a collection of
technologies and services which form a middleware to enable integration of
systems and applications across the enterprise.
13) Siebel: A family of Web-based customer
relationship management (CRM) applications from Siebel Systems, Inc., San
Mateo, CA (www.siebel.com). A complete range of products for sales, marketing
and customer service are provided. For example, Siebel Sales is the sales force
automation module for one user, which is available free at the Siebel Web site.
Siebel Business Analytics is the commercial version which provides global
sharing of information. Siebel Systems was founded in 1993 by Tom Siebel and
Pat House. In 2005, Siebel was acquired by Oracle.
14) Business Analyst: A Business Analyst
(BA) is someone who analyzes the existing or ideal organization and design of
systems, including businesses, departments, and organizations. BAs also assess
business models and their integration with technology.
15) Project Management: is the discipline
of planning, organizing, motivating, and controlling resources to achieve
specific goals. A project is a temporary endeavor with a defined beginning and
end (usually time-constrained, and often constrained by funding or
deliverables), undertaken to meet unique goals and objectives, typically
to bring about beneficial change or added value. The temporary nature of
projects stands in contrast with business as usual (or operations),which
are repetitive, permanent, or semi-permanent functional activities to produce
products or services. In practice, the management of these two systems is often
quite different, and as such requires the development of distinct technical
skills and management strategies.
16) Sys Admin/Network: A system administrator
is a professional practitioner of IT Administration, which is concerned mainly
with the design, construction, and maintenance of computer systems and
networks. Similar titles for the same position include IT systems
administrator, systems administrator, or sysadmin.
17) Mainframe: A mainframe is an ultra
high-performance computer made for high-volume, processor-intensive computing.
They are typically used by large businesses and for scientific purposes. You
probably won't find a mainframe in any household. In the hierarchy of
computers, mainframes are right below supercomputers, the most powerful
computers in the world. (Which is why they are aptly named
"supercomputers.") Yet a mainframe can usually execute many programs
simultaneously at a high speed, whereas supercomputers are designed for a
single process. Currently, the largest manufacturers of mainframes are IBM and
Unisys.
18) Web/Internet: The Internet is a global
system of interconnected computer networks that use the standard Internet
protocol suite (TCP/IP) to serve several billion users worldwide. It is a
network of networks that consists of millions of private, public, academic,
business, and government networks, of local to global scope, that are linked by
a broad array of electronic, wireless and optical networking technologies. The
Internet carries an extensive range of information resources and services, such
as the inter-linked hypertext documents of the World Wide Web (WWW) and the
infrastructure to support email.
19) Embedded Systems: An embedded system is
a computer system with a dedicated function within a larger mechanical or
electrical system, often with real-time computing constraints. It is
embedded as part of a complete device often including hardware and mechanical
parts. By contrast, a general-purpose computer, such as a personal computer
(PC), is designed to be flexible and to meet a wide range of end-user needs.
Embedded systems control many devices in common use today.
20) IT sales/Recruiting: refers to the
process of attracting, screening, selecting, and onboarding a qualified person
for a job. At the strategic level it may involve the development of an employer
brand which includes an 'employee offering'.
21) IT Trainers: Computer training refers
to resources, companies and services dedicated to helping educate users on
computer-related topics. Computer training professionals instruct and help
users acquire proficiency in a wide array of areas, including software, hardware,
database management, programming, networking and more.
22) Salesforce.com: is a global enterprise
software company headquartered in San Francisco, California. Though best known
for its customer relationship management (CRM) product, Salesforce has also
expanded into the "social enterprise arena" through acquisitions.
It is currently ranked the most innovative company in America by Forbes
magazine,as well as number 27 in Fortune's magazine's 100 Best Companies to
Work For in 2012.
23)
Mobile Application:
A mobile application, most commonly referred to as an app, is a type of
application software designed to run on a mobile device, such as a smartphone
or tablet computer. Mobile applications frequently serve to provide users with
similar services to those accessed on PCs. Apps are generally small, individual
software units with limited function. This use of software has been popularized
by Apple Inc. and its App Store, which sells thousands of applications for the
iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch.
24) IT Executives: An executive summary,
sometimes known as a management summary, is a short document or section of a
document, produced for business purposes, that summarizes a longer report or
proposal or a group of related reports in such a way that readers can rapidly
become acquainted with a large body of material without having to read it all.
It will usually contain a brief statement of the problem or proposal covered in
the major document(s), background information, concise analysis and main
conclusions. It is intended as an aid to decision making by managersand
has been described as possibly the most important part of a business plan.They must be short and to the point.
25)
Engineering:
is the application of scientific, economic, social, and practical knowledge in
order to design, build, and maintain structures, machines, devices, systems,
materials and processes. It may encompass using insights to conceive, model and
scale an appropriate solution to a problem or objective. The discipline of engineering
is extremely broad, and encompasses a range of more specialized fields of
engineering, each with a more specific emphasis on particular areas of
technology and types of application.
