[SKUNKWORKS] What Shopping Experience On Jumia Kenya Is Like
by Martin Gicheru 08 Mar '15

08 Mar '15

I decided to take the plunge.... ...you know, experience it like the average user would. I have heard of numerous cases of sad stories in the shopping experience, so I was ready for anything. I wasn’t going to tell them, lest they treat me special just because they knew who I was. http://www.techweez.com/2015/03/06/shopping-experience-on-jumia-kenya/ Gicheru Martin.

Click here <http://contact.open-td.com/t/r-e-qirhudy-irllddvx-d/> TRIPLE PLAY COMMUNICATION Dear Oliver, NetIQ solutions are geared towards enabling a timely and cost effective delivery of service through simple and secure identity powered access, security intelligence that helps detect and respond to breaches faster, single disaster recovery for physical and virtual environments as well as service and workload management. OpenTD provides two of NetIQ's signature solutions as follows - *NetIQ Identity Manager* How do enterprises ensure efficient, consistent and secure access to corporate assets within and beyond their firewalls? With increasing demands on resources, the expanding workplace brought on by mobility and BYOD, internal and external audit controls, and cloud computing, enterprises need Identity Manager. - *NetIQ Sentinel* NetIQ Sentinel provides organizations with real-time visibility into the full spectrum of IT activities to mitigate security threats, improve security operations and automatically enforce policy controls across physical, virtual and cloud environments. It reduces the complexity of traditional security information and event management (SIEM) and lowers the barriers to SIEM adoption, making security intelligence accessible to all organizations. Presentations and demonstrations of NetIQ technologies, will be done at our Crossing Over Into Compliance Seminars on *March 9* in *Pretoria*, South Africa, *March 11* in *Nairobi*, Kenya and *March 13* in *Dar es Salaam*, Tanzania.

Performance Issue Invoking Web Service
by Brian Ngure 06 Mar '15

06 Mar '15

Hi All, I have a Java application that invokes a WCF SOAP web service. Of late, performance has become really bad. The first couple of invokes are fast (a couple of seconds, some less than a second) but each subsequent invokation of the web service is slower and slower (up to 60+ seconds). Have any of you ever experienced this and can anyone provide any tips? Any help at all? Some points: 1. The web service url is https. No private key so TCP dump useless. 2. Have checked other services running on same infrastructure and all are behaving ok. 3. Java application is fast if you point it to a mock web service locally. -- Regards Brian Ngure
