  • shuse at two multi host Account Administration
    USENIX Large Installation Systems Administration Conference, 1997
    Co-Authors: Henry Spencer
    Abstract:

    The Shuse multi-host Account Administration system is now two years old, and clearly a success. It is managing a user population of 20,000+ at Sheridan College, and a smaller but more demanding population at a local "wholesaler" ISP, Cancom. This paper reviews some of the experiences along the way, and attempts to draw some lessons from them.

  • shuse multi host Account Administration
    USENIX Large Installation Systems Administration Conference, 1996
    Co-Authors: Henry Spencer
    Abstract:

    At the beginning of 1995, Sheridan College urgently needed an organized way of administering a large number of user Accounts spread across multiple Unix systems. With 6000+ Accounts on a network that had recently undergone dramatic and ill-coordinated growth, the situation was already nearly unmanageable; with the user population forecast to double in autumn, disaster loomed. NIS served reasonably well for the simple task of distributing password files, but maintaining the master copy was proving problematic, creating directories and configuration files for new users was a very ad-hoc process, and there was no obvious place to record assorted supplementary information. The response was to create a new software package, dubbed "Shuse" for "Sheridan user management". A central daemon maintains the user database, which is in a fully extensible text- based format. Rather than use a commercial database package, the daemon simply keeps the entire database in its (virtual) memory, and the master copy on disk is optimized for rapid updates rather than efficient access. (RAM is cheaper than database packages nowadays.) Update requests go to the central daemon; it invokes auxiliary processes on other hosts as necessary to create, destroy, and move user files. Shuse is written essentially entirely in Expect, an extended variant of Tcl. Inter-host communication is done by using Expect's process-control primitives to fire up telnet processes; bulk data transfer is done via NFS. About 100 lines of C code, in three small auxiliary programs, provide services that are not present in Expect. A not-accidental byproduct of this approach is near- automatic portability and correct functioning even in a heterogeneous network. Shuse is in operational use, currently administering over 20,000 user Accounts (the forecasts were low). Various problems were encountered along the way, some easily solved and some requiring considerable unforeseen effort. The use of Expect has been a clear success, performance problems were easily resolved, and the central-daemon approach has worked well.

  • THE SUBSTRATE FOR THE SUCCESSFUL RETAILER’S BUSINESS Account Administration IN SOCIAL NETWORKS
    Efektyvna ekonomika, 2019
    Co-Authors: A. Natorina
    Abstract:

    У статті аргументовано доведено цінність та важливість для ритейлера розробки і коректного ведення бізнес-акаунта Інтернет-магазина у соціальних мережах, що передбачають безпосереднє задоволення вимог та вподобань цільової аудиторії, які є гетерогенними і змінюються динамічно в умовах діджиталізації. Базуючись на результатах емпіричного дослідження та аналізу, ідентифіковано бізнес-акаунти Інтернет-магазинів найбільших українських ритейлерів у соціальних мережах та детерміновано систематичність оновлення їх контенту. Запропоновано та презентовано деталізацію трьох магістральних напрямів ведення бізнес-акаунта ритейлера у Facebook та Instagram, синтез яких є субстратом успішного адміністрування, що забезпечує ефективну взаємодію з фоловерами з урахуванням сучасних трендів та сприяє перманентному збільшенню їх числа. Детерміновано переваги використання інструментарію Facebook for Business для розробки та реалізації дієвої рекламної кампанії, інтерпретовано її послідовні фази. Обґрунтовано й унаочнено послідовні етапи кастомізації фіда у Facebook та Instagram на базі досвіду фоловерів та потенційних покупців. Розроблено перелік рекомендацій щодо кастомізації фіда у Facebook та Instagram у межах реалізації ритейлерами рекламної кампанії, імплементація яких дозволять підвищити впізнаваність Інтернет-магазина серед пріоритетних конкурентів, а також сприятиме залученню нових покупців.

  • Archivematica As a Service: COPPUL's Shared Digital Preservation Platform / Le service Archivematica: La plateforme partagée de conservation de documents numériques du COPPUL
    Canadian Journal of Information and Library Science-revue Canadienne Des Sciences De L Information Et De Bibliotheconomie, 2020
    Co-Authors: Bronwen Sprout, Mark Jordan
    Abstract:

    The Council of Prairie and Pacific University Libraries (COPPUL) is piloting a cloud-based preservation service using the Archivematica digital preservation system. The service is offered to COPPUL member institutions that wish to preserve digital holdings but prefer a hosted service to installing and managing local Archivematica instances. This service is a joint effort of COPPUL, Artefactual Systems (Archivematica lead developers), and University of British Columbia (UBC) Library (the cloud storage provider). COPPUL is responsible for promoting the service, signing up new institutions and seeding the one-time set-up costs. Artefactual Systems provides Account Administration, installation, server Administration, and user technical support. UBC Library provides fee-based server hosting and digital object storage service. This article discusses COPPUL’s Archivematica-as-a-service model generally and covers certain aspects of implementation in greater detail, concluding with a discussion of future directions. Resume: Le Conseil des bibliotheques universitaires des Prairies et du Pacifique (Council of Prairie and Pacific University Libraries [COPPUL]) met a l’essai un service de conservation base sur un nuage informatique qui utilise le systeme de conservation numerique Archivematica. Le service est offert aux institutions membres du COPPUL qui souhaitent effectuer la conservation de leur fonds documentaire numerique, mais qui n’ont pas la possibilite ni l’intention d’installer et de gerer une implementation Archivematica locale. Ce service est un effort conjoint de COPPUL, de Artefactual Systems Inc. (les developpeurs principaux d’Archivematica) et de la bibliotheque de l’Universite de Colombie britannique (UBC Library), qui est le fournisseur du stockage en nuage. COPPUL a la responsabilite de la promotion du service, de l’enrolement de nouveaux etablissements et de la dissemination des couts uniques de mise en place; Artefactual Systems fournit l’Administration des comptes, l’installation, l’Administration des serveurs et le soutien technique aux utilisateurs; et la Bibliotheque de l’Universite de Colombie britannique offre le service d’hebergement payant sur ses serveurs et un service de stockage d’objets numeriques. Cet article examine le modele de service Archivematica en general et en tant que service de COPPUL, et couvre certains aspects de la mise en œuvre de maniere plus detaillee, pour conclure par une discussion sur les orientations futures.
