I;m resuming my Microsoft Code Title each day sequence that I began in December 2006. The objective: To provide the back again tale, every day in August, on one of Microsoft;s myriad code names. Some of these code names may well be familiar to Microsoft watchers; other people (hopefully) might be brand-new.Microsoft code names provide some good clues about the Redmondians’ improvement priorities, not to mention a greater knowledge of which long term Microsoft items fit collectively, from a strategy standpoint. And not every item group is moving to uninteresting, numbered codenames (like Windows seven and Office 14).Without further ado,
Buy Microsoft Office 2007, let the codename games start.Microsoft
code name
of the day:
AvalancheMicrosoft code identify of the day: AvalancheBest guess on what it's: Microsoft Safe Content Downloader (MSCD)Meaning/context of the code identify: Avalanche had a rocky start back in 2005, when it was a Microsoft research undertaking that a great number of dubbed Redmond;s BitTorrent killer. I guess the P2P file sharing was poised to set off a cascading avalanche of safe file downloads?Back again tale: MSCD is “a peer-assisted” download manager capable of securely downloading specific files. The target audience is consumers who are downloading from a home PC,
Office 2010 Serial Product Key, or business users whose computers are not behind a corporate firewall.Microsoft;s more detailed description: “MSCD allows authorized content material publishers to distribute their content material to a sizable audience via file swarming. The publisher can choose to use MSCD to augment their existing server bandwidth,
Office 2010 Professional Plus, or use it to enable them to reach a considerably larger audience than they could have otherwise with a relatively small server investment. MSCD is NOT a file searching or file sharing technology: it;s intended for a small variety of publishers to distribute content material to a sizable variety of customers.”Added info: Microsoft made a Community Technology Preview pre-beta release of Safe Content Downloader available from its Web site in late July. The preview is quite limited for now, however, and will only allow you to obtain current Visual Studio 2008 Beta 2. And the test period is slated for four weeks only. So significantly,
Windows 7 Enterprise X86, Microsoft has no announced plans to incorporate MSCD into any of its items, or to supply it as a separate product.Got a Microsoft code name you’ve been wondering about? Send it my way and I’ll do my best to track down some leads on what it may possibly be.And if you want to keep track of the full month;s worth of Microsoft code names I end up posting,
