    With comprehensive, customizable and secure learning management features, it can be used to create a private website for dynamic online courses.
    Moodle (acronym for modular object-oriented dynamic learning environment), (stylized in lower-case as moodle) is a also known as a learning management system, or virtual learning environment. The platform can be used for e-learning projects in University, Corporate training, School and Other sectors.
    • HH uses VDI w:desktop virtualization in its computers to bring an extremely available and responsive computing experience to thousands of users using the approximatelly 2000 computers there are in HH Pasila Campus. ( Wikipedia )
    • w:WinSCP(.net) is the tool of choice for Windows users moving files to network folders. ( Teacher ) Another option for Windows is the PScp available here ( jubo-jubo )
    Winscp allows you to access Myy-disk at home etc.
    If you are using OS X, Linux or FreeBSD at home you can use the pre-installed command line tool scp to get same functionality ( move files between machines securely ).

    Cloud computing[edit | edit source]

    In cloud computing abstraction layers provide ability to move virtual servers around the cloud. It can anticipate breaking down of single physical components and move the services to a sound, functional piece of server hardware in advance to the physcial component breaking up.
    In addition to these fault surviving technologies cloud computing is very ecologically efficient as several, even tens of virtual servers can live on one physical machine instead of expensive server hardware sitting idly as the load is much lower then the total processing power by a factor of 10x or so. Think of a business buying a big physical server which is then utilized to 10% of it's maximum capacity whereas in cloud computing you can thanks to virtualization technologies have much better utilization rates for actual physical devices.
