Linux® is an Open Source, full-featured, powerful and robust UNIX-like operating system based on the initial work of Linus Torvalds from the University of Helsinki in Finland. Since 1991, his work was extended and ported to many platforms by a worldwide community of software developers. Linux offers features such as true multitasking, virtual memory, shared libraries, demand loading, shared copy-on-write executables, proper memory management, TCP/IP networking and near-zero system downtime. COURSE DESCRIPTION Total Linux is a comprehensive, hands-on Linux training program using the latest kernel and Fedora release on 64-bit hardware. This flagship course covers intermediate to advanced Linux system and network administration, security and optimization. It helps prepare students for Linux Professional Institute (LPIC), Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE), and Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) certifications.

Perl Programming
Saturday, Jun 26, 1999, 9:50 PM (Revision 41 - Wednesday, Sep 21, 2011, 12:16 PM)
Perl (Practical Extraction and Reporting Language) is a stable, cross platform programming language. It is used for mission critical projects in the public and private sectors and is widely used to program web applications of all needs. Perl takes the best features from other languages, such as C, awk, sed, sh, and BASIC, among others. Its database integration interface (DBI) supports third-party databases including Oracle, Sybase, PostgreSQL, MySQL and others. COURSE DESCRIPTION Perl Programming course is designed to enable developers and others with limited programming experience to master the "duct-tape of the Internet."

Extreme PHP™
Sunday, Oct 21, 2001, 12:00 AM (Revision 47 - Wednesday, Sep 21, 2011, 12:16 PM)
PHP (PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) is an Open Source server-side scripting language for creating dynamic Web pages for e-commerce and other Web applications. A dynamic Web page is a page that interacts with the user, so that each user visiting the page sees customized information. Dynamic Web applications are prevalent in e-commerce sites, where the content displayed is generated from information accessed in a database or other external source. Unlike other scripting languages for Web development, PHP offers excellent connectivity to most of the common databases (including Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Sybase, ODBC and many others). It also offers integration with various external libraries, which allow the developer to do anything from generating PDF documents to parsing XML. Perhaps the greatest advantage of PHP, when compared to other scripting languages such as ASP or Cold Fusion, is that it is Open Source and cross-platform, suitable for today's heterogeneous network environments. PHP has been awarded the Programming Language of 2004, according to the TIOBE Programming Community Index. This index uses information collected from the popular search engines, and are based on the world-wide availability of skilled engineers, courses, and third party vendors. COURSE DESCRIPTION Extreme PHP is designed to enable Web developers and others with limited programming experience to build dynamic e-commerce websites.
"I think the Extreme PHP course is very practical and aimed at getting students up to speed in making real-world sites (for example, Dollie - with no PHP experience - able to make congress.gov.ph), so I think it's very worth it for our students." - Vip Malixi COURSE OUTLINE

Python Programming
Tuesday, Dec 13, 2005, 12:00 AM (Revision 33 - Wednesday, Sep 21, 2011, 12:16 PM)
Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language. It is often compared to Tcl, Perl, Scheme or Java. It combines remarkable power with very clear syntax and has modules, classes, exceptions, very high level dynamic data types, and dynamic typing. There are interfaces to many system calls and libraries, as well as to various windowing systems (X11, Motif, Tk, Mac, MFC, wxWidgets). New built-in modules are easily written in C or C++. Python is also usable as an extension language for applications that need a programmable interface. COURSE OUTLINE

AJAX Crash Course
Thursday, Feb 21, 2008, 12:00 AM (Revision 37 - Thursday, Jul 14, 2011, 7:13 PM)Crash course on demand. For people in a hurry.
AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) is a group of inter-related web development techniques used for creating interactive web applications. A primary characteristic is the increased responsiveness and interactivity of web pages achieved by exchanging small amounts of data with the server "behind the scenes" so that entire web pages do not have to be reloaded each time there is a need to fetch data from the server. This is intended to increase the web page's interactivity, speed, functionality and usability. COURSE OUTLINE

VLAN is part of a family of standards for local and metropolitan area networks developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.1 Working Group on how to break large networks into smaller parts, preventing broadcast and multicast traffic from consuming more bandwidth than necessary and providing a higher level of security between segments of internal networks. Virtual Local Area Networks allow network topologies to be rearranged on demand without the need to move physical cables, hosts, or servers. Multiple isolated networks can share the same physical link, minimizing equipment costs and increasing hardware utilization & efficiency. Linux Virtual LAN Crash Course is a fast track introduction to VLAN design and deployment on large-scale corporate or campus networks using Linux and Open Source tools. Linux® Containers Crash Course

LXC (Linux Containers) provides the ability to group and isolate a set of processes in a jail by virtualizing and accounting the kernel resources. It is similar to Linux-VServer or OpenVZ and has been in the mainstream kernel since 2.6.29. Unlike system virtualization technologies such as KVM and Xen (which started by booting separate virtual systems on emulated hardware and then attempted to lower their overhead via paravirtualization and related mechanisms), LXC started out with an efficient mechanism (existing Linux process management) and added isolation. The result is a system virtualization mechanism as scalable and portable as chroot, capable of simultaneously supporting thousands of emulated systems on a single server. Linux Containers Crash Course is a fast track introduction to LXC design and deployment for server aggregation and clustering & cloud computing infrastructures. | Search Albums Fedora 16 Release Party Software Freedom Day 2011 Linux Day 2011 Summer Geek Camp 2011 Bluepoint Christmas 2010 Nooku Code Jam Manila Software Freedom Day 2010 Summer Geek Camp 2010 Bluepoint Christmas 2009 Software Freedom Day 2009 10th Summer Geek Camp 2009 STI Seminar Series TIP ITE Roadshow Bluepoint Christmas 2008 CodeFest 2008 Software Freedom Day 2008 Ajax Crash Course 1 9 on the 9th Summer Geek Camp 2008 Bluepoint Christmas 2007 Software Freedom Day 2007 Eight Years Strong Tulay 2 Philippine Sahana Initiative Bluepoint Christmas 2006 Open for Business Tulay 1 Kartero Road Tour 2003 - Manila Road Tour 2003 - Iloilo Road Tour 2003 - Batangas Road Tour 2003 - Baguio Road Tour 2003 - Manila Bluepoint Christmas 2002 Red Hat Partnership Launch Bluepoint Christmas 2001 Java Developers Day One Linux Day Linux-Mandrake Launch | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Thank you so much for the training opportunity you gave us last year. We have been progressing very well. We have two labs in our only public school running on Fedora Core 5 LTSP. We also have three of our biggest grade schools doing the same thing. Our back end service is using Xen and FC5.
