Children’s Cancer Institute of Australia has made great strides in medical research and their aim is to put an end to childhood cancer.
Organisations constantly produce information and data at a rate like never before. This data can unlock secrets in your business which in turn can help you make intelligent decisions.

I don’t want to bury the lede here – I think AWS Workspaces is the future of hosted desktop platforms. I’m going to share why.
I spent an earlier part of my career designing, building, managing and fixing Citrix environments. Some of these were small, some of them large. Back then, Citrix was the right answer – often the only answer that would actually work – on how to deploy corporate Windows apps out to a distributed workforce. Other technologies emerged (VMware View) or got better (Microsoft RDS). Mostly they operate on similar principles with different implementation details.

Big news from AWS this morning with more flexibility added to their already competitive Reserved Instances (RIs) offerings. The market has been asking for more freedom when it comes to RIs, and AWS has definitely delivered. RIs are now Region specific instead of Availability Zone (AZ) specific AND a brand new type has launched – Convertible RIs.
Take a look at the official announcement: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2016/09/amazon-ec2-convertible-reserved-instances-and-the-reserved-instance-regional-benefit/
