SocialCloud – Lessons Learned – Part 8
Looking back at 4 months of intensive work on our project “SocialCloud” we gathered a lot of experiences and learned many things regarding teamwork, cloud infrastructure and about the difficulties of creating and designing a web application from scratch.

SocialCloud – HumHub and the humming begins – Part 7
The background
Locally organized voluntary groups, helping refugees manage their first steps in Germany, are often organized by mass-email with up to 50 recipients. So the huge amount of received emails which should be clarified ends up in a “answer all”-flood of every involved mailbox. Another realistic misbehaviour is that images are sent uncompressed as attachment, so some recipient mailbox exceed their limitation of 25MB per mail. Continue reading
Test Driven Development Part III
[written by Roman Kollatschny and Matthias Schmidt]
Uhwe, hello and welcome back to the third of our posts in this series. Today we want to show you additional features and tipps on developing a node.js web application test driven. As stated in the last article we use Mocha.js and Chai.js as tools.
SocialCloud – Configure all the things! – Part 6
One of the requirements of the system is that organizations should be able to set up and deploy the HumHub system on their own. For this purpose, we have designed the Configtool. To meet this requirement we have to use different tools, procedures and interfaces from Bluemix. In the following we would like to introduce some of them.
Machine Learning in secure systems
Sadly today’s security systems often be hacked and sensitive informations get stolen. To protect a company against cyber-attacks security experts define a “rule set” to detect and prevent any attack. This “analyst-driven solutions” are build up from human experts with their domain knowledge. This knowledge is based on experiences and build for attacks of the past. But if any attack don’t match the rules, the secure system don’t recognizes it and the security is broken.
The question is: Is there a possibility to train a model based on past attacks to predict further attacks?
SocialCloud – Cloudy this morning … and we’re scaling – Part 5
Cloud computing has so much potential that the possibilities seem to be endless. Without knowing much about it the cloud looks like a magic place for many people.
To give you a more detailed explanation we sum up the design process of our cloud application step by step in the following blog post. Without giving too much away, it can be said that we still put our trousers on one leg at a time ;-).

But there is a problem … TIME.
SocialCloud – You got cloudified – Part 3
At the beginning of our project we had little experience in “that cloud thing everyone is talking about”. Just like Gary Klinman from Hewlett Packard pointed out, we already knew that it is possible to “back things up to the cloud”, but in our imagination “the cloud” seemed more like a fancy slogan than a clear technical concept of providing data and processing resources.
