Core IT Pro news
Developing Bioinformatics Applications
During the winter of 2009 and spring of 2010, Core IT Pro developed applications to store patient and genetic data from a research study conducted by the University of Pennsylvania, Drexel Univery, and Hanhemmann University Hospital, and B-Tech Consulting LTD. The research team had gathered large sets of patient histories, genetic sequences, genetic mutations, and patient profiles. These datasets were then stored in flat files, which had added complexity to analysis, management, and export. It was quickly determined that a new strategy would need to be developed.
Drexel Cultural Passport
The Penoni Honors College recently contracted Core IT Pro to redesign the website for the Drexel Cultural Passport program, which provides Drexel University freshman with free tickets to events in Philadelphia.
The new site allows students to view upcoming events, and use their Drexel username and ID card to reserve tickets online. In addition, a content management system was integrated with the site, to allow students to write reviews about the events that they attended.
High Performance Computation with Amazon EC2
On-demand high performance computation in the genetic and bioinformatic fields led B-Tech Consulting to seek out the expertise of Core IT Pro.
Updates Scheduled
Core IT Pro will be updating FreeBSD systems to the latest release for stability and security on April 4th at 11PM. Systems will be rebooted after midnight after patches have been applied, which will result in a small period of downtime.
All web hosting, e-mail hosting, and managed VPS customers will be affected by the updates, and we anticipate that the downtime will be less than 15 minutes.
Core IT Pro would like to congratulate the FreeBSD team on yet another rock solid release, and looks forward to more great work!
New Webmail interface
A faster and simpler webmail interface has been added for customer use.
