We are proud to announce that the ICCLab has released Hurtle! Hurtle is a result of the ICCLab’s Cloud Orchestration Initiative. What is hurtle? With Hurtle, you automate the life-cycle management of any number of service instances in the cloud, from deployment of resources all the way to configuration and runtime management (e.g., scaling) of each instance. […]
Today the ICCLab introduces a new way on how to interact with your notes. http://icclab.github.io/powdernote/ What is powdernote? Powdernote is a note-taking, cloud-based application for the terminal. Why powdernote? Because we never leave the terminal, not even to read our notes or create new ones. This tool is for busy engineers, developers, power users, devops, … […]
