Existem várias histórias de empreendedores de sucesso, mas temos que exaltar a iniciativa de alguns deles.

1)

Meu camarada José Carlos Fiel veio me perguntar: “- To pensando em abrir minha empresa. Gostaria de saber de vc o que deve ser evitado e com o que tomar cuidado”.Bem, como eu sou meio que macaco-véio nesse lance de ter empresa (já tive 3), posso listar aqui o fiz de errado, para seu entretenimento (caso vc não seja esperto) ou para que vc se oriente (caso seja). Isso não é conselho, nem dica, nem nada disso. São apenas pontos que me fizeram dar boas cabeçadas e que agora, na terceira tentativa, estou procurando evitar.

Tá na hora de abrir sua própria empresa da Vedovelli

Através de um convite feito pelo meu amigo @vedovelli através do seu blog, obrigado pelo convite e parabéns pelo texto, vou expor rapidamente alguns pontos de vista que desenvolvi nesses quase 2 anos de empresa.

Tá na hora de abrir sua própria empresa da FlexDev.

É engraçado quando outras empresas nos ligam para saber sobre nossos cursos on-line ou sobre o Treina TOM. Todos acham que estamos em um grande centro, em plena avenida paulista e todos vestidos de ternos e gravatas, o ambiente cinza que muitas empresas que surgiram nos últimos 5 anos citam

I was reading SmartSOA blog about Top 5 Announcements from IBM Impact 2009, then I found out the SmartSOA channel on youtube, and specially I like this video about Smart Work for a Smarter Planet. I’m an IBMer. Check it out .

I found that useful presentation on slideshare. It’s very interesting.

When I think about grid computing I think about an application such as SETI@home. Grid computing is the application of several computers to a single problem at the same time, usually to a scientific or technical problem that requires a great number of computer processing cycles or access to large amounts of data. What distinguishes grid computing from conventional cluster computing systems is that grids tend to be more loosely coupled, heterogeneous, and geographically dispersed. Also, while a computing grid may be dedicated to a specialized application, it is often constructed with the aid of general-purpose grid software libraries and middleware.

I don’t know why I was mixing up grid computing with peer-to-peer. A peer-to-peer (or P2P) computer network uses diverse connectivity between participants in a network and the cumulative bandwidth of network participants rather than conventional centralized resources where a relatively low number of servers provide the core value to a service or application. A pure P2P network does not have the notion of clients or servers but only equal peer nodes that simultaneously function as both “clients” and “servers” to the other nodes on the network. This model of network arrangement differs from the client-server model where communication is usually to and from a central server. When I think about peer-to-peer network I keep in mind applications such as aMule for Linux, e-mule for Windows and Vuze (formerly Azureus).

Cloud computing is a style of computing in which dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources are provided as a service over the Internet. Users need not have knowledge of, expertise in, or control over the technology infrastructure “in the cloud” that supports them.The concept incorporates infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and software as a service (SaaS) as well as other recent technology trends that have the common theme of reliance on the Internet for satisfying the computing needs of the users. Cloud computing services usually provide common business applications online that are accessed from a web browser, while the software and data are stored on the servers.

Cloud computing is often confused with grid computing (”a form of distributed computing whereby a ’super and virtual computer’ is composed of a cluster of networked, loosely-coupled computers, acting in concert to perform very large tasks”), utility computing (the “packaging of computing resources, such as computation and storage, as a metered service similar to a traditional public utility such as electricity”)and autonomic computing (”computer systems capable of self-management”). When I think about cloud computing, I keep in mind companies such as IBM, Amazon, Google, Microsoft or Yahoo which are some of the major cloud computing service providers.

Estava lendo a reportagem da Revista Época cujo o tema é: “As melhores invenções devem beneficiar também os mais pobres”. Foi ai que me interessei pelo tema Capitalismo Criativo que li na reportagem completa Em busca do capitalismo criativo. . Na verdade baseado nessa minha pesquisa encontrei alguns artigos e reportagens interessantes:

A New Approach to Capitalism in the 21st Century – O discurso do Bill Gates no World Economic Forum. O transcript do discurso do Bill Gates está disponível aqui.

Bill Gates Issues Call For Kinder Capitalism - Um resumo do discurso do Bill Gates no Wall Street Journal, no que tange o tema Capitalismo Criativo.

Making Capitalism More Creative – Reportagem da revista TIME, sobre Capitalismo Criativo.

Don’t Let Architecture Astronauts Scare You Article was written 2001, but It’s still up to date.

I disassemble two parts of that article that I’ve thought over:

These are the people I call Architecture Astronauts. It’s very hard to get them to write code or design programs, because they won’t stop thinking about Architecture. They’re astronauts because they are above the oxygen level, I don’t know how they’re breathing. They tend to work for really big companies that can afford to have lots of unproductive people with really advanced degrees that don’t contribute to the bottom line.

Remember that the architecture people are solving problems that they think they can solve, not problems which are useful to solve. Soap + WSDL may be the Hot New Thing, but it doesn’t really let you do anything you couldn’t do before using other technologies — if you had a reason to. All that Distributed Services Nirvana the architecture astronauts are blathering about was promised to us in the past, if we used DCOM, or JavaBeans, or OSF DCE, or CORBA.

Alan Braz wrote in his Sametime message: Stop Talking, Start Doing. I found the ad video that explain the main idea, clicking on “Globalization” video.

In few words, we can brief both the article and the IBM Ad Video: Stop designing useless software architecture, Starting coding useful software.

Are you learning or using new technology because It is a hype or buzzword ?
Or are you learning or using new technology because It contributes to the bottom line ?
Any thoughts ?

I watched a wonderful documentary how IBM becomes leader as outsourcing and service provider to IT companies around the world. The documentary in portuguese Brazil shows the history of IBM Brazil being the first IBM’s main office outside from US. It shows also how IBM Brazil( mainly IBM Hortolandia) is important in service and outsourcing area to IBM worldwide.

Já mencionei anteriormente que o Mundo S/A é um dos meus programas preferidos.

Assisti uma excelente documentário sobre como a IBM se tornou uma das maiores empresas de serviços do mundo. O documentário A reviravolta da IBM, mostras aspectos interessantes que transformaram a IBM de uma empresa de Hardware e Software, para umas das lideres mundial no setor de serviços e outsourcing. Também mostra que a IBM Brasil faz parte dessa historia de sucesso, sendo a primeira filial da IBM fora dos EUA, e agora no outsourcing, a IBM Hortolândia está cada vez mais tornando uma importante braço no setor de serviços para a IBM no mundo.

O Mundo S/A é um dos meus programas preferidos, principalmente quando ele fala sobre ciência, tecnologia, empreendedorismo e carreira, assuntos que eu adoro conversar.

Assisti hoje o programa Por dentro do Google, um programa que conta um pouco sobre o google e como as pessoas que trabalham lá dentro se comportam. Vale a pena assistir !
