Now Fight Zombies without a Season Pass - Call Of Duty: Advanced Warfare

Taking three years in development with the franchise, Sledgehammer Games have brought about a newer level of experience to the multiple players platform in "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare Day Zero Edition" as Activision Blizzard mentioned of a new release of entry in the popular Call of Duty series.

In spite of the fact that this is a newer level of experience for the multiple players, this does not go without controversy as the gamers were more concerned not about what the game offered in the general but more about what the game lacks in like the zombie mode which they enjoy and benefit from. Most of the gamers were more so annoyed as the players had access to game content which was worth US$50 before the decision to package the Zombies mode with a Season Pass was taken which eventually effected the gamers. However this mistaken email sent from GameStop was a spark that rose anger or fear which apparently caused a confusion as per Activision spokesperson Kyle Walker.

As confirmed to the source that all players jut like yesteryears will still be able access the Zombie content via DLC he says that the season pass is not the only way to get to zombies but its just another pass to get all DLC at discounted rates. As mentioned by Walker " Sledgehammer team created a surprise for their fans with the zombies in the AW being an Easter egg, just shows their own new take and new style of creation on zombies to be presented to their fans"

As quoted by CEO Eric Hirshberg to Activision Publishing that three years ago the decisions they have taken to actually invest into a three year development cycle and as well as to make bout.Sledgehammer Games the first new lead studio for Call of Duty in a decade was not a bad decisions as it paid off which resulted in a fantastic game which involves a good story, performance, graphics and mechanics that makes it better than an adrenaline rush than Call of Duty which exists and that is what results are all about.

In the new Call of Duty the gamers start with the World War II-Era involving American and the Soviet Soldiers where the players now can gear up in exoskeletons and go through a world where terrorists are defeated by technology.

An epic performance of Kevin Spacey makes him a James Bond style super villain wo dons a power suit of another tools who is bent to dominate the world with the corporate type of new weapons The notable fact of Spacey's role is the advanced versions of the storytelling elements used in the 1960's but with full motion videos.

As said by Billy Pidgeon (independent video game industry analyst) to the source that animation is getting so goo that and more famous that its hard to differentiate between animated sequences from the actual filmed video. They added to say that with the computer animation technology growing so advanced it is getting really hard to differentiate where computer is generated.

NASA Releases Crazy Video Shot From a Camera, Inside a Ball of Water in the Space

The International Space Station is expected to keep on offering what we know the best entry we can have to what life off-Earth is overall like, and this will keep on happening as long as we consider Interstellar as part of science fiction.

Chris Hadfield's famous Bowie rendition has clearly demonstrated as to how the crews of international astronauts who have lived in the space station has always tried their best to convey the overall experience of living in space to the people of Earth and that too making sure that they don’t need rocket power to get the feel of the experience. A person doesn’t need to literally leave their bond with the gravity to understand the life of the astronauts in space.

So what is the clip all about?

NASA astronaut Don Pettit shot footage of the International space station in the year 2012 using a 3D camera.
The footage can be accessed at This video gives the viewers a floating tour of the of the confined interiors of the International Space Station but if see the footage closely one of the most exciting part to see is when Don Pettit has directed the camera to capture the views of the Russian Soyuz capsule docked just above the International Space Station.

But in the recent times, what can be considered as one of the most insane video clips that has been posted online is the clip posted from the astronauts' adventures in the microgravity 3D cinematography.
This video highlights the behavior of water aboard the International Space Station. The video shows how the team was able to create a softball-size sphere of water due to the surface tension in space. The team took the advantage of this tension which basically makes the water form a ball rather than bead up, as it is bound to do on a non-permeable surface on Earth.

After forming the ball, the team has inserted as the GoPro camera inside and taken the outside view from inside the ball. Although the released clip requires a person to wear red-blue stereoscopic 3D vision glasses, but a 2D version is easily available in YouTube as part of pair of clips released by NASA.
Who is part of the clip?
The video clearly highlights the fun astronauts at NASA had while shooting, and adds an extra dimension in the lives of the people living in the space. NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman and Steve Swanson and Alexander Gerst (European Space Agency astronaut) feature in this video clip.

Event-Triggered Automation Scripts Set By Python-Powered Stackstorm

The first public version of the eponymous open source operations automation solution was launched by StackStorm, which is currently staffed by the ex- members of Puppet Labs, Github, SwiftStack, Apache Libcloud team and the Rack space team. StackStorm which is written in Python and made available under license the Apache 2.0 will provide the Information Technology departments of the companies a definite method through which they can automatically activate and drive the behaviors from one part of their infrastructure to another part through the means of events.

About the software

According to the Co-founder and CEO of StackStorm, Evan Powell, the perfect description of the software was sent out in the email. The description highlights that StackStorm has the ability to soak up events from any given source and then later on it can make sense out of these collected events through the assistance from the rule engine. Once these events have been analyzed and absorbed, the software will make a final decision. The software can later on implement an immediate task or execute a long-running series of tasks. For example, a new post on a given website will be able to trigger a cross post on another website like Tumblr or even generate an automated tweet.

In Comparison with others

From the description given by Evan, StackStorm seems to resemble the website “IFTT”. This is a website, which basically allows the users to input from different sources like an incoming email or a news piece in an RSS feed and then generates an output. Depending on this we can clearly say that StackStorm has the capability of covering more behaviors and operations and that too at a great range. There were comparisons drawn with Salt, Puppet, Ansible and Chef, which are the staples of automation solutions in the Information technology now. The company does not intend to replace these solutions individually, but they are looking for augmenting or replace the roadblocks of the ad-hoc scripting which often grows around and between IT systems.

According to Evan Powell, StackStorm software is all about the management of the operational patterns which includes the end-to-end implementation of event through assessment to action. On the other hand, configuration management solutions are basically about carrying out action meant to change and meet configurations. Currently even the blog post available on the website of the company emphasizes on the fact that the software is a solution to the slump of hand-rolled or homegrown tools that generate "silos of automation" and also the work that can be performed by this software on some of products and the tools.

At the moment, this software is being expected to replace many tools like Jenkins but the Evan also highlights the fact that the software can work in coordination with other tools as well. Currently as the software has been written in Python, it looks to be an outcome of Openstack. But this will allow the IT users to make use of another platform from the Python library.

AT&T and Others Launch the OpenDaylight SDN Alternative

Although there is an increasing level of excitement and a momentum is getting built up, everyone is still not on the same page regarding the Open source SDN project by OpenDaylight. ON.Lab orthe Open Networking Lab is a non-profit organization which was founded by the SDN pioneers from the Stanford University and the UC Berkeley. They have successfully launched their own open source SDN operating system which is an alternative to the amount of work that is being received from the vendor-driven OpenDaylight.

So what is ON.Lab’s Open Network Operating System (ONOS)? 

This network operating system has been designed to enable the agile service deployment and creation at scale on any kind of hardware which includes the one with the white boxes. OpenDaylight, which is basically a vendor driven effort are aimed for preserving the incumbency of the brand name hardware. This was confirmed by the ON.Lab officials.

According to ON.Lab executive director, Guru Parulkar, all these noises regarding the SDN have been received from the Vendors, he also adds that OpenDaylight is targeted and focused on the command line interface automation, which is utilized for configuring legacy hardware.

It doesn’t aim to bring out the SDN values to the service providers; these values include revenue, service delivery, lower operating costs and offering the white box hardware alternatives. According to IDC analyst Brad Casemore, carriers are excited to learn how the major hyperscale player design and also controls their infrastructure.

OpenDaylight and ONOS

OpenDaylight has been able to gain the confidence of many companies due to momentum from their recent code releases. While on one side HP and Dell have raised their interest in the participation, Brocade will also be shipping out an OpenDaylight-based SDN controller.

ONOS also delivers an SDN control plane just like OpenDaylight, and this feature southbound and northbound APIs, a range for management, a range for the control as well as a range of service applications. Although this operating system has been currently targeted at service providers, the extended goals of the company are to extend this platform to cloud service providers, mainstream and enterprise deployments.

ONOS is expected to be released in December and will be available for downloading. The companies who funded as well as developed ONOS includes Ciena, NTT Communications, AT&T, Huawei, Fujitsu, NEC and INTEL with additional contributions from the companies like Internet2, SRI, CNIT, Infoblox and Create-Net.

The Open Networking Foundation, which is a proponent of OpenFlow-based SDNs, also supported ONOS. Right from the beginning there were unseen tensions between ONF and ONOS.

According to OpenDaylight executive director, Neela Jacques, the ODL developer community is very excited for the new codes and they are hoping for more collaboration between all the developers so they can learn new things and add further research in the ODL.

They are hoping to see how ONOS will be building mechanism to allow people to participate, use and contribute to the current code database.

Ultimately the ODL intends to encourage the adoption of the SDN by defeating the fragmentation in the industry.
