Modernization

Technology veterans Jim Bowers and Jim Knudsen, sales engineers at IR, talk candidly about the evolution of NonStop systems, and

Navigating Towards Sustainability: NuWave Technologies Introduction: NuWave Technologies is renowned for its innovative enterprise solutions, particularly in HPE NonStop integration,

While ISO 8583 remains the foundation of card-based transactions, ISO 20022 is driving standardization and harmonization across a broader range of financial activities.

It is easy to project that for 2024, multiple topics will drive the conversations within the NonStop Community. Whether it’s

My sons went to public elementary school before we started homeschooling. At the earliest opportunity, they were put in ‘honors’ math. Suddenly I was exposed to new teaching methods and had to

In an era characterized by rapid technological evolution, staying ahead of the curve is imperative. NuWave Technologies has remained at the forefront of NonStop technological innovation

Strolling through the local mall I came across this simple sign. Yes, I can explain everything … well, sort of! For starters as you read this column,

As we enter 2023, the cybersecurity threat landscape evolves and expands. From the rise of IoT cloud-based attacks to an increased focus on edge computing and IoT devices, organizations must stay vigilant in their efforts to

For the better part of the past two centuries, there is barely a time when modernization isn’t the subject of conversation. Attend any gallery opening, any new musical or any open house and very quickly the conversation turns to whether or not the item represents modernism. In other words, is it an indicator of things to come or is it just more of the same.

Many organizations have a cloud migration strategy for their mission-critical workloads to offer flexibility, scalability, and business continuity. There are many reasons for migrating to the cloud.

As mentioned in my last post, Cloud was the big topic for the 2022 NonStop Technical Boot Camp.

The 2022 NonStop Technical Boot Camp was held “live” at the Hyatt Regency SFO in Burlingame, California. It was very nice to see people face to face and shake hands after the past two years. Even though I caught a cold, it was well worth it.

As we approach the holiday season and start decking the halls, we at NuWave, like many of you, like to reflect on the past twelve months. 2022 has been a bittersweet year for us. Looking back, there were so very many highlights and a lot to be proud of. However, there were also some sad times, including the loss of our founder and co-owner, Ernie Guerrera, as well as Karen Copeland, a guiding light in the HPE NonStop space.

NonStop TBC 2022 kicked off a new round of modernization with a friendly competition to come up with a sustainable design to replace SCOBOL requesters with the latest and greatest tech available on and off NonStop.

A story of changing priorities; changing relationships; changing leverage points It is hard to ignore the recent spate of news

How Striim can easily unlock the value of your data without disruption to existing applications and databases I recently had

Introduction HPE NonStop users are becoming more familiar with Kafka, as Kafka in turn becomes more and more prevalent inside

I’ve been doing a lot of research recently based on an article I read online. It was discussing human trafficking and that there were patterns in the transaction flow that could identify this activity. I was intrigued. I was quite surprised to learn that, depending on the poll, human trafficking was either the second or third largest revenue source for criminals.

In the Sept-Oct 2021 edition of The Connection, we gave an overview of Kafka, and how it is being used by many Fortune 500 companies to manage “streams” of data, which have become prevalent as internet usage massively boosts the amount of data being generated, and requiring processing. Kafka allows these huge volumes of data to be processed in real-time, via a combination of “producers” and “consumers”, which work with a Kafka “cluster” – the main data repository.

HPE Virtualized NonStop started as just a concept and challenge to the NonStop development team. Andy Bergholz, if you remember him, had sent the team off for some virtualization training and just asked “Could NonStop be virtualized”? “No”, “Never” “Of course not” “Why”? But then, as Andy suspected, there started a lot of “Well, what if…” conversations and in just a little while they had booted NonStop under OpenStack. That’s the way great leaders get things done

Winston Churchill once said “To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often”. While that might have been a smart way to justify his changing of political party allegiance (and true when it comes to passwords!), it obviously doesn’t sit quite so well when it comes to critical files and configurations on your HPE NonStop!

Red Link is the biggest transactional switch in Argentina, processing transactions from ATMs and digital wallets. Red Link is owned by a group of public and private banks that service most of Argentina’s population. Red Link processes more than 47 million transactions per day during their peak time of year. They are interconnected with 60 financial institutions and have more than 1,000 employees, with a large team focused on the HPE NonStop, as it is the primary system used for their transactions.
