On Windows, applications are built as exe files and code libraries are built as dll (dynamic-link library) files. The dll files contain reusable programs such as database engines, 3D renders, graphing capabilities etc. The application developers need not bother about writing these libraries all over again and can use these libraries by referencing the dll files in the application program. Exe files can run as a process, but that is not possible for dll files. Windows needs an exe process to load the dll file(s) and then let other processes call a function in the dll code. One more reason for hosting dlls separately is that some of the code has to run as a super user and running that code from the application as a constrained user is not possible. svchost.exe does the job of loading the dll files in a process with SYSTEM user. One or more dll files are grouped by their functions and are loaded into the svchost.exe process. So based on the number of groups these dll files can fo

When you are closing, opening or minimizing windows, animation effects are rendered (I guess to make it look more dramatic). I can live without those animation effects, and if you are like me, you can turn off unnecessary animations by following these steps: Open the Control Panel and click on  Ease of Access Center .

This is a starter guide for Basis Administrators to understand the architecture and various nuances of SAP PI Administration. This guide will be updated time to time, so I recommend you to bookmark and keep revisiting this page as you see fit. Enterprises run different software solutions to support their business processes. Not all of them are built and supported by SAP. These solutions are integrated one-to-one using various middleware solutions or customized programs or scripts. When there is a change in one system or business process, multiple point-to-point interfaces are affected and are often expensive to change. Although these point-to-point interfaces are using different technologies, there are recurring themes. Although there are recurring themes, code is not reusable because they were implemented using different technologies. In 2003, SAP introduced NetWeaver, which helped them focus on providing a platform for integrating various aspects of business , in

Good news from Microsoft PowerShell Team! Microsoft will be supporting SSH on Windows. The solution is in the planning stages and the date of availability is not known yet. If I am reading the announcement from the PowerShell team right,  you can SSH into a Windows box from *nix and vice-versa. Hopefully key based authentication using PuTTY will be possible as well. In case you can't wait, there are third party solutions available right now, such as  PowerShell Server , that support SSH and SFTP in to Windows. Windows 10  has already brought in "drag to select text", ctrl-c and ctrl-v to the command prompt; and now this announcement! I hope this also means SFTP and SSHFS support. Then we could finally say goodbye to SMB! This is a really helpful support to system admins from Microsoft! Share it on Facebook Twitter Google+ LinkedIn
