Dipesh Chakrabarty (born 15 December 1948, Kolkata) is a historian, who has also made contributions to postcolonial theory and subaltern studies. He is the Lawrence A. Kimpton Distinguished Service Professor in history at the University of Chicago, and is the recipient of the 2014 Toynbee Prize, named for Professor Arnold J. Toynbee, that recognizes social scientists for significant academic and public contributions to humanity.[1]
Dipesh Chakrabarty attended Presidency College of the University of Calcutta, where he received his undergraduate degree in physics. He also received a Post Graduate Diploma in Management (MBA) from Indian Institute of Management Calcutta. Later he moved on to the Australian National University in Canberra, from where he earned a PhD in history.[1]
He is currently the Lawrence A. Kimpton Distinguished Service Professor of History, South Asian Languages and Civilizations and the College at the University of Chicago. He was a visiting faculty at the Centre for Studies in Social Sciences, Calcutta. Chakrabarty also serves as a contributing editor for Public Culture, an academic journal published by Duke University Press.
He was a member of the Subaltern Studies collective. He has recently made important contributions to the intersections between history and postcolonial theory (Provincializing Europe [PE]), which continues and revises his earlier historical work on working-class history in Bengal (Rethinking Working-Class History). PE adds considerably to the debate of how postcolonial discourse engages in the writing of history (e.g., Robert J. C. Young's "White Mythologies"), critiquing historicism, which is intimately related to the West's notion of linear time. Chakrabarty argues that Western historiography's historicism universalizes liberalism, projecting it to all ends of the map. He suggests that, under the rubric of historicism, the end-goal of every society is to develop towards nationalism.[citation needed]
Chakrabarty has had an extensive program of visiting lecturships: Visiting Fellow, Humanities Institute, Princeton, USA (2002); Hitesranjan Sanyal Visiting Professor of History, Centre for Studies in Social Sciences, University of Calcutta (2003); Visitor, Humanities Center, State University of New York, Stony Brook (2004); Visiting Fellow, Max Planck Institute for Historical Sciences, University of Göttingen, Germany (2005); Faculty, Seminar in Experimental Critical Theory, University of California, Irvine (2005); Visiting Research Professor, University of Technology, Sydney (2005 and 2009); Visitor, Center for Historical Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi (2005); Scholar-in-Residence, Pratt Institute, New York (2005); Visiting Professor, European Humanities University, Vilnius, Lithuania (2006); Ida Beam Distinguished Visiting Professor, University of Iowa (2007); Distinguished Visitor, Institute of Advanced Study, University of Minnesota (2007); Fellow at the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin (2008–09): Katz Professor in the Humanities, University of Washington, Seattle (2009); Hallsworth Visiting Professor, University of Manchester, U.K. (2009); Institut für die Wissenschaften vom Menschen, Vienna, Austria (2010); Lansdowne Lecturer, Victoria University, Canada (2012); Nicholson Distinguished Visiting Scholar, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign (2013). In 2014, Chakrabarty delivered the IWM Lectures in Human Sciences in Vienna; a public lecture at Cankaya Municipality (Ankara, Turkey); Principal's Distinguished Visitor, Queen's University, Canada; Distinguished Visitor, Humanities Institute, Stony Brook University, New York; Visitor, University of Barcelona, Spain; Visiting Fellow, Humanities Research Centre, College of Arts & Social Sciences, Australian National University (2014);[2] GLASS scholar, Leiden University Institute for Area Studies (LIAS) - Humanities University of Leiden, (2015).[3] Previously, Chakrabarty has been, by invitation, a Visiting Assistant Professor, Department of History, University of California, Berkeley, and has held other fellowships in Australia, India, and the US.

"Four problems that biases help us address:
Information overload, lack of meaning, the need to act fast, and how to know what needs to be remembered for later."
"Elon Musk is also good at a very specific type of learning that most others aren't even aware of — learning transfer.
Learning transfer is taking what we learn in one context and applying it to another. It can be taking a kernel of what we learn in school or in a book and applying it to the "real world." It can also be taking what we learn in one industry and applying it to another.
This is where Musk shines. Several of his interviews show that he has a unique two-step process for fostering learning transfer.
First, he deconstructs knowledge into fundamental principles. Musk's answer on a Reddit AMA describes how he does that:
It is important to view knowledge as sort of a semantic tree — make sure you understand the fundamental principles, i.e. the trunk and big branches, before you get into the leaves/details or there is nothing for them to hang onto.
Research suggests that turning your knowledge into deeper, abstract principles facilitates learning transfer. Research also suggests that one technique is particularly powerful for helping people intuit underlying principles. This technique is called, "contrasting cases."
"Jessica McClard's idea is simple: rather than leaving or taking a book, people leave and take non-perishable food and household goods, including toothpaste, garbage bags, deodorant and toilet paper. Those with surplus supplies leave them and those in need are welcome to take them."
"Don't be fooled by common myths about cycling – use these explanations to help spread the truth!"
"Ross, "the world's first artificially intelligent attorney" built on IBM's cognitive computer Watson, was designed to read and understand language, postulate hypotheses when asked questions, research, and then generate responses (along with references and citations) to back up its conclusions. Ross also learns from experience, gaining speed and knowledge the more you interact with it."
"Twitter is a popular platform in terms of the media attention it receives and it therefore attracts more research due to its cultural status
Twitter makes it easier to find and follow conversations (i.e., by both its search feature and by tweets appearing in Google search results)
Twitter has hashtag norms which make it easier gathering, sorting, and expanding searches when collecting data
Twitter data is easy to retrieve as major incidents, news stories and events on Twitter are tend to be centred around a hashtag
The Twitter API is more open and accessible compared to other social media platforms, which makes Twitter more favourable to developers creating tools to access data. This consequently increases the availability of tools to researchers.
Many researchers themselves are using Twitter and because of their favourable personal experiences, they feel more comfortable with researching a familiar platform."
"The news curation team writes headlines for each of the topics, along with a three-sentence summary of the news story it's pegged to, and choose an image or Facebook video to attach to the topic. The news curator also chooses the "most substantive post" to summarize the topic, usually from a news website. The former contractors Gizmodo interviewed said they were asked to write neutral headlines, and encouraged to promote a video only if it had been uploaded to Facebook. They were also told to select articles from a list of preferred media outlets that included sites like the New York Times, Time, Variety, and other traditional outlets. They would regularly avoid sites like World Star Hip Hop, The Blaze, and Breitbart, but were never explicitly told to suppress those outlets. They were also discouraged from mentioning Twitter by name in headlines and summaries, and instead asked to refer to social media in a broader context.
News curators also have the power to "deactivate" (or blacklist) a trending topic—a power that those we spoke to exercised on a daily basis. A topic was often blacklisted if it didn't have at least three traditional news sources covering it, but otherwise the protocol was murky—meaning a curator could ostensibly blacklist a topic without a particularly good reason for doing so. (Those we interviewed said they didn't see any signs that blacklisting was being abused or used inappropriately.)"
"The cumulative volume of research leaves little doubt about the link between fracking and earthquakes. One point of debate that did emerge is the significant difference between how the quakes are caused in Canada and the U.S.
In Oklahoma, the earthquakes are blamed on the industry practice of injecting waste water from oil production into wells dug deep into the ground. This causes changes in underground pressure and deep underground faults to slip, resulting in earthquakes.
In Canada, the direct action of fracking is blamed, as less water is used and injected back into the ground.
University of Calgary seismologist David Eaton says in the past six years, 90 per cent of earthquakes larger than magnitude three taking place in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin can be linked to fracking or waste water disposal. The vast majority — 62 per cent — are directly linked to fracking.
He believes that like those in Oklahoma, the earthquakes are being caused by changes in pressure underground.
Atkinson believes part of the difference between Canadian and U.S. quakes can be attributed to different geology.
"There's evidence that the types of formations that are being explored have differences that would explain why hydraulic fracturing is so much more likely to induce seismicity in Western Canada than it is in Oklahoma.""
"Like the now retired inMaps feature, our site allows you to view a diagram of your LinkedIn network. Please wait while the visualization and network metrics are produced. When finished, scroll down to view your network map and analysis.
At the bottom of the page, there will be a number of network measures drawn from sociological research on professional networks, as well as percentile bars comparing your aggregate network measures to past users.
Below each measure will be a brief interpretation. "
""While some smart people will profit from all the information now just a click away, many will be misled into a false sense of expertise. My worry is not that we are losing the ability to make up our own minds, but that it's becoming too easy to do so. We should consult with others much more than we imagine. Other people may be imperfect as well, but often their opinions go a long way toward correcting our own imperfections, as our own imperfect expertise helps to correct their errors," warns Dunning."
"Once the water is sucked back out of the well, it's toxic and can't be used for anything else. And there aren't any failsafe ways to store it. "We've seen that wastewater leak from retention ponds," says Rachel Richardson, director of Environment America's Stop Drilling program and co-author of the report. "Sometimes it's been dumped directly into streams. It's escaped from faulty wells. And that's a huge risk to our drinking water. There's really no safe or sustainable way of dealing with fracking toxic waste.""
"Traditionally, elements like productivity, jobs, hourly wages, and income all grew in unison. However, during the last 30 years GDP and productivity grew while the US median income stopped and employment flattened, Wallach writes in his new book. Technology innovation has played a significant role in this trend.
"For most of our history 50% of GDP went to wages and 50% went to capital, and we are seeing a radical alteration in that largely because of the anomalies of money being made in high tech industries," he said. "That's not anybody doing anything wrong, that's just technology industries are different from old manufacturers."
So, for example, in 1990 GM, Ford, and Chrysler brought in $36 billion in revenue and hired over a million workers, Wallach said. The big three today — Apple, Facebook, and Google — bring in over a trillion dollars in revenue and only have about 137,000 workers, he said.
This change has created a situation where more and more of the capital is going to a smaller percentage of the population. In fact, we are on course for 70% of stock ownership to be held by 5% of the population, Wallach said. "
"A survey of a major oil and natural gas-producing region in Western Canada suggests a link between hydraulic fracturing or "fracking" and induced earthquakes in the region, according to a new report published online March 29 in the journal Seismological Research Letters. "
"The study also confirmed that in the last few years nearly all the region's overall seismicity of magnitude 3 or larger has been induced by human activity. More than 60% of these quakes are linked to hydraulic fracture, about 30-35% come from disposal wells, and only 5 to 10% of the earthquakes have a natural tectonic origin, Atkinson said. "
(1) Provide significant funding for face-to-face events. CoPs are based on relationships and trust, and relationships and trust are cemented through meeting. The core team of the CoP, and as many extended CoP members as possible, should meet; once at Community Launch, and then on a regular basis (ideally annually)
(2) Ensure community activities address business issues. This is the Number 2 factor from Warwick, but for me would be the number one factor. I know you can set up CoPs for sharing recipes, for Bike groups, for Wine Appreciation, but people are professionals - they know that work-time is for work things, and they are much more likely to devote serious attention to business-centred CoPs. By all means start with a social focus for your CoPs, but transition over time to a business focus once the "community experience" has been introduced..
(3) Provide CoP leader training. CoP leader, or CoP facilitator, is a key role, and it requires skills and awareness.
(4) Ensure CoP leaders are given sufficient time for their role. "Sufficient time" depends on the size of the CoP. Over about 600 - 100 members, this becomes a full time role (see stats)
(5) Ensure high levels of sponsor expectation. Expectation, not management. CoPs must self manage, but the expectations can be set by the sponsor. This 5th success factor is contrary to some KM lore - that any Management influence will kill a CoP. However this is not what the Warwick/KIN survey found. They found that an engaged, supportive sponsor with high levels of expectation is a condition of CoP success.
(6) Engage members in developing good practice. That's primary purpose #1 of a CoP - for the members to exchange practice knowledge, and look for ideas and solutions that will improve their own practice. It doesn't initially have to be codified into Best Practice, but that CoP will probably move in that direction over time.
(7) Improve the usefulness of Community Tools provided. They need to be useful, sure, but they also need to be Usable and Used. Which is not the same as "high tec" or "functionality rich".
(8) Ensure there are clearly stated goals. These come from the Community Charter - they are set by the members. They are influenced by the Sponsor expectation, but the goals are set by the community itself. These can be concrete goals - I know of many CoPs who have said the equivalent of "You know, if we all worked together, I bet we could shave 20% off the cost of this activity".
(9) Promote CoPs ability to help employee's solve daily work challenges. That's also primary purpose #1 of a CoP - for the members to get solutions to their problems. That's the WIIFM for the members (the "What's in it for me"). Without number 9, your CoP will wither and die as the members move away. Without a WIIFM, a CoP becomes a drain on time; with a WIIFM, a CoP is a time-saver.
10). This one was not in the Warwick list, but for me is important. Create a sense of Identity - of belonging. CoPs work in the long term through loyalty and belonging; a sense of belonging to a professional group, and a loyalty to your fellow practitioners that will drive you to answer their questions, share your knowledge, and trust their answers.
Here's a list we made a while ago, in conjunction with Adel Al-Terkait, of the different mechanisms by which a community of practice can add value to an organisation. No doubt you can think of more!
Solve problems for each other
Learning before
Learning during
Learning after Benchmark performance with each other
Exchanging resources
Collaborating on purchasing (buying things that any one member could not justify)
Collaborating on contracts (using the purchasing power of the community)
Cooperating on trials and pilots
Sharing results of studies
Exchanging equipment (re-use old equipment, share spares)
Warning of risks
Mentoring and coaching each other
Building and maintaining documented Best Practices
Developing checklists and templates
Identifying knowledge retention issues
Identifying training gaps and collaborating on training provision
Innovation - new products, services or opportunities
"An organisation recently promoted 14 individual contributors to managers, meaning these employees now have people management responsibility for the first time. In the old way of doing it, the organisation would have likely brought together those 14 employees for several days of training on management concepts and approaches.
The new managers would 'drink from the fire hose' during the course, learning all types of new concepts.
However, when they returned to their desk or field upon completion of the training, while they might change the vocabulary they used a bit (and been able to show off the new concepts they learnt), many would often struggle with implementing these new desired work behaviours.
Now, let's flip the approach. Imagine, if you will, that before physically coming together, the managers were assigned pre-work (e.g. watch a series of videos on core management principles, read the organisation's Manager Handbook).
Then, in the class itself, the managers focus on role playing and other guided activities to begin practising what they learnt over the course of their self-directed pre-work. Finally, upon completion of the event, they stay together for 3–4 months, as one cohort, supported by an online technology that allows them to continue to collaborate and learn from both the instructor and one another.
Now imagine that six weeks into the process, one of the new managers is having some issues with one of their reports and they need to develop a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP). It wouldn be great if they could draft a PIP and talk through how they are going to deliver it with the members of that cohort?
Then, in the wake of having the conversation with their employee, they can return to debrief with their learning group, discussing 'the good, the bad, and the ugly' of how it went. This would lead to them receiving feedback around what they can do to improve next time, as well as helping the others in the group learn from the real-world experience of their colleague. "
"Dr. Erdelez agrees with that definition. She sees serendipity as something people do. In the mid-1990s, she began a study of about 100 people to find out how they created their own serendipity, or failed to do so.
Her qualitative data — from surveys and interviews — showed that the subjects fell into three distinct groups. Some she called "non-encounterers"; they saw through a tight focus, a kind of chink hole, and they tended to stick to their to-do lists when searching for information rather than wandering off into the margins. Other people were "occasional encounterers," who stumbled into moments of serendipity now and then. Most interesting were the "super-encounterers," who reported that happy surprises popped up wherever they looked. The super-encounterers loved to spend an afternoon hunting through, say, a Victorian journal on cattle breeding, in part, because they counted on finding treasures in the oddest places. In fact, they were so addicted to prospecting that they would find information for friends and colleagues.
You become a super-encounterer, according to Dr. Erdelez, in part because you believe that you are one — it helps to assume that you possess special powers of perception, like an invisible set of antennas, that will lead you to clues."
This book outlines a step-by-step process for making sense of messes made of information (and people). The steps are in order but most projects are not, so feel free to skip around or jump to a specific term from the lexicon.
"History is full of historic figures and literary luminaries that tapped the power of the commonplace book to capture and record vital details about everything around them.
Here are a few notable examples of commonplace in practice:
Carl Linnaeus used commonplace as a way to organize and catalog the taxonomy of the "Systema Naturae," the precursor to binomial nomenclature and the order of the species.
Julius Caesar tracked his lifelong pursuit of reading in over 1,200 pages of commonplace writing.
John Milton amassed one of the most distinct manuscripts of reading and political theory of any Renaissance poet.
Thomas Jefferson deployed two versions of commonplace—one to help his academic and legal endeavors, and another to keep track of his reading.
During the seventeenth century, students at Harvard and Oxford were expected to keep their own commonplace notebooks.
Bill Gates publishes notes from personal reading on his blog.
President Ronald Reagan compiled stacks of notecards full of concepts, quotes, and ideas that were part of his presidency and speeches.
Lewis Carroll incorporated articulate drawings related to anagrams, ciphers, and labyrinths."
"1. When accuracy is critical and errors are risky.
There are many careers in which employees are working in dangerous situations. People who deal with hazardous chemicals, on surgical teams, first responders to disasters – there may be something in your company that has a critical component to it. How can you integrate important information to these key performers? Perhaps it needs to be hands-free, such as on a smartwatch or glasses. Steps on a checklist could appear in response to verbal cues. Use technology to equip your positions that include risk.
2. When a work task is performed infrequently, making it difficult to remember.
Do you have compliance training that needs to be delivered on an annual basis? Think creatively on how that information can be delivered via mobile devices to the end user in an approach that emphasizes reinforcement. Perhaps it is some safety training required by OSHA that could be delivered by guiding employees around a facility via a "mobile trainer."
3. When a work task is error prone, so that mistakes are made too often.
Ms. Malamed provides a good example of this type of performance support need by mentioning routine medical procedures in a hospital. Thinks of the steps needed to apply an IV needle to a patient. Why not have these steps easily accessible on mobile devices including pictures and even video on how to do it correctly?
4. When there are multiple decision points or many steps.
Have you ever built training for overcoming customer resistance? For a salesperson, this is commonly needed information. Or if there is a customer-facing encounter that has a myriad of outcomes. Why not step through a decision tree with the customer that leads to accurate offerings? The customer will appreciate it and the potential for a sale is increased. Think of an investment advisor who has a wide range of possible advice using this approach.
5. When procedures or tasks are changing.
Float has had the opportunity to work with clients who have many "big box" retail outlets around the company. The product lineup for these stores change on a daily basis and the support information related to the products changes as well. It can be a daunting task for a salesperson to keep up with it all. Present product information that is easily searchable on a mobile device and even use the device's micro-location capabilities to guide the employee to the right spot on the sales floor.
6. When the workers have a low level of literacy.
Do you have employees that struggle with English as a second language? Utilize the device's technology to solve some of these language barrier problems. Applications such as Google Translate allows you to point the phone's camera at printed text and then see the same text in another language on the device display. There is also voice recognition software such as Speechlogger that can translate your spoken word as you dictate it. Are there ways you can integrate these technologies into your performance support tools?
7. When training is not available for performing complex tasks.
We hear from many companies that a wealth of knowledge for their workers is locked up in the heads of veteran subject matter experts. There have been some creative solutions to this dilemma by SME's sharing knowledge via video streaming through smart glasses. Take a look at this video where an SME solves a problem with the onsite technician by utilizing smart glasses. "

On a beautiful Sunday afternoon, more than 500 Middlebury College students earned degrees in the school's 213th commencement ceremony. Long-distance swimmer Diana Nyad was the event's featured speaker. See the full story here.
ORWELL — At the end of this school year the Orwell Village School will say a final goodbye to two longtime teachers — Susan Young and Pat Dubois.
Young, a first-grade teacher, leaves the school after teaching various ages for nearly 40 years. Dubois retires after 13 years of teaching English Language Arts (ELA) and social studies to sixth- through eighth-graders in Orwell.
MIDDLEBURY — The Middlebury selectboard on Tuesday, May 27, will discuss and potentially take a pro or con position on "Phase II" of the proposed Addison Rutland Natural Gas Project.
BRISTOL — The Bristol selectboard looked high and low for a new town administrator but ended up picking a familiar face — the town clerk.
Therese Kirby, 47, who has served as town clerk since 2006, will take over the town administrator position at the beginning of the new fiscal year July 1. She will be the first female town administrator in Bristol's history.

FERRISBURGH — When the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum launched the replica canal schooner Lois McClure back in 2004, then-LCMM Director Art Cohn anticipated the majestic vessel might complete a single, triumphant sailing tour and then serve as a very important exhibit on how maritime commerce was conducted in the region during the mid- to late 1800s.
MIDDLEBURY — Mary Hogan Elementary School directors on May 19 appointed Middlebury resident Victoria Jette to a board vacancy created by the recent resignation of incumbent Jim Callahan.
Callahan verbally resigned from the ID-4 school board on April 17, citing a disagreement with board Chairwoman Ruth Hardy. Callahan had been elected to a three-year term on the board on March 4 and attended only two meetings before resigning.
MONTPELIER — Rep. Peter Welch hosted the 33rd annual Congressional Art Competition for high school students at The Gallery at Vermont College of Fine Arts in Montpelier on May 15.
Greta Suzette Exeter from Vergennes, a student at Vergennes Union High School, received Congressman Welch's choice award for her piece "Michelle Dockery."
VERGENNES — Vergennes workers and private contractors will undertake at least five significant projects between June and August, including paving two streets, improving two stretches of Main Street sidewalk, and making progress to solve the city's longstanding sewer-system overflow problem.

Over the past several years I've amassed a collection of SD (Secure Digital) cards beyond count, likely the result of various devices that depended on this media for recording files to flash storage. As the technology improved, more and more devices began using the microSD format. Eventually the microSD card surpassed the competition to become the standard with its faster speeds, higher capacity, and compact lightweight profile. In this article Benchmark Reviews will test transfer speeds and performance of the extended capacity 64GB SanDisk Extreme UHS-I microSDXC card, model SDSDQX-064G-U46A.

J. Matthew Wolfe was part of an insurgency that spent three years trying to overthrow the leadership of Philadelphia's feckless Republican Party in the hopes of building a viable alternative to Democratic dominance.
Last year, the GOP ended the fight by naming State Rep. John Taylor, a respected legislator, chairman. The party also hired a young, aggressive operative as executive director.
"We have a stronger Republican Party than we did a year ago," Wolfe said, before adding: "We have a long way to go."

This application claims priority to Provisional Application No. 60/460,183, filed Apr. 3, 2003, the entirety of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
This application is also related to the following patents and pending applications, each of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference in its entirety:
A portion of the disclosure of this patent document contains material which is subject to copyright protection. The copyright owner has no objection to the facsimile reproduction by anyone of the patent document or the patent disclosures, as it appears in the Patent and Trademark Office patent files or records, but otherwise reserves all copyright rights whatsoever.
The invention disclosed herein relates generally to performing storage operations through a firewall. More particularly, the present invention relates to providing a limited number of ports in a firewall for performing secure storage operations between components in a computer network.
Firewalls reside between components in a computer network and generally function to prevent unauthorized access to the network by evaluating which communications should be allowed to pass between the firewall's network and other networks or network components. A firewall thus divides a network into two parts: a friendly/secure side and a hostile side, wherein computers inside the firewall on the friendly side are protected from computers outside the firewall on the hostile side.
A firewall evaluates whether network traffic such as data streams, control messages, application data, communications packets, and other data meets specified security criteria and should be allowed to pass between components of the network. Data that does not meet the security criteria is generally discarded or otherwise blocked from passing between components. A firewall may comprise hardware elements, software components, or any combination thereof. Exemplary firewalls include packet filters, bastion hosts, application or circuit-level gateways, and proxy servers.
One method used by firewalls to prevent unauthorized communications is to restrict network communications to specified ports. A port is generally used by TCP/IP. UDP, and other communication protocols to represent the logical endpoint of a particular connection. For example, HTTP traffic associated with a particular computer might be routed through port 80. Various programs, services, and other applications on a computer often run listening processes for network traffic directed to a particular port. Limiting network communications to specific ports and closing all unused ports generally reduces the risk of unauthorized access to a computer since these programs, services, and other applications could be compromised or otherwise exploited by a hacker to gain access to the computer.
Firewalls provide additional security by timing out network sessions beyond a specified time period. Thus, ports do not remain unnecessarily open in the event of network connection failures, slowdowns, or other events which might create vulnerabilities. For example, any network sessions that become idle beyond a preconfigured timeout period are automatically disconnected without warning. Further, after making a new connection, a first packet must be sent within a timeout period or the connection is also disconnected.
Existing storage management systems, however, use many thousands of ports to conduct storage operations through a firewall. Typically, these systems keep large sets of known ports open during backups and restores. Each of the streams of data sent as part of a backup, a restore, or other storage operation must have a port open in the firewall to pass the data. For example, data pieces come through multiple streams, control signals come through other streams, status messages come yet other streams, etc. The head end (sender) and tail end (receiver) of existing systems, however, do not know which ports all of the data is coming through, so they generally reserve large blocks of ports in the firewall to accommodate the various streams of data that they anticipate. Furthermore, these systems also must keep many ports open since slow network connections and other factors may cause a connection to timeout and the firewall to close an intended port thus requiring data to be resent to another port. Opening thousands of ports in this manner, however, renders a firewall more like a switch than a firewall and severely compromises network security.
There is thus a need for systems and methods which reduce the number of open ports required in a firewall to perform storage operations in a computer network.
In some embodiments, the present invention provides systems and methods for performing storage operations through a firewall.
In one embodiment, the invention provides a method for performing storage operations through a firewall in a networked computer system, including identifying, based on configuration data, whether each of a set of network elements is within a trusted network or not within the trusted network. Traffic between elements within the trusted network and elements not within the trusted network must pass through the firewall. The method further includes, prior to performing a storage operation through the firewall, allocating a specific set of ports, in accordance with at least one security parameter, for use in performing the storage operation.
In another embodiment, the invention provides a method for performing storage operations through a firewall in a networked computer system, including identifying, based on configuration data, a first set of network elements which are within a trusted network and a second set of network elements which are not within the trusted network. Traffic between elements within the trusted network and elements not within the trusted network must pass through the firewall. The invention further includes, prior to performing a storage operation through the firewall, allocating a specific set of ports, according to at least one security parameter, for use in performing the storage operation. The method further includes, during the storage operation, monitoring traffic through each of the specific ports. The method further includes, if, through the monitoring, traffic is determined to be inactive through a first port of the specific ports for a specified time period, sending a packet through the first port.
In another embodiment, the invention provides a system for performing storage operations through a firewall in a networked computer system. The system includes a firewall and a plurality of network elements, including one or more client computers and one or more storage devices. The system further includes a storage manager. The system further includes one or more media agents which conduct data between the one or more client computers and the one or more storage devices under the direction of the storage manager. The storage manager identifies, based on configuration data, a first set of network elements which are within a trusted network and a second set of network elements which are not within the trusted network. Traffic between elements of the trusted network and elements not within the trusted network must pass through the firewall. Further, the storage manager, prior to performing a storage operation through the firewall, allocates a specific set of ports, according to at least one security parameter, for use in performing the storage operation. During a storage operation, the firewall opens ports in accordance with the allocation.
The invention is illustrated in the figures of the accompanying drawings which are meant to be exemplary and not limiting, in which like references are intended to refer to like or corresponding parts, and in which:
With reference to
A data agent 100 is generally a software module that is generally responsible for archiving, migrating, and recovering data of a client computer 105 stored in an information store 110 or other memory location. Each client computer 105 has at least one data agent 100 and the system can support many client computers 107. The system provides a plurality of data agents 100 each of which is intended to backup, migrate, and recover data associated with a different application. For example, different individual data agents 100 may be designed to handle Microsoft Exchange data, Lotus Notes data, Microsoft Windows 2000 file system data, Microsoft Active Directory Objects data, and other types of data known in the art.
If a client computer 105 has two or more types of data, one data agent 100 is generally required for each data type to archive, migrate, and restore the client computer 105 data. For example, to backup, migrate, and restore all of the data on a Microsoft Exchange 2000 server, the client computer 105 would use one Microsoft Exchange 2000 Mailbox data agent 100 to backup the Exchange 2000 mailboxes, one Microsoft Exchange 2000 Database data agent 100 to backup the Exchange 2000 databases, one Microsoft Exchange 2000 Public Folder data agent 100 to backup the Exchange 2000 Public Folders, and one Microsoft Windows 2000 File System data agent 100 to backup the client computer's 105 file system. These data agents 100 would be treated as four separate data agents 100 by the system even though they reside on the same client computer 105.
The storage manager 115 is generally a software module or application that coordinates and controls the system. The storage manager 115 communicates with all elements of the system including data agents 100, client computers 105, firewalls 125, media agents 130, and storage devices 135, to initiate and manage system backups, migrations, and recoveries, as well as perform other storage-related operations.
A media agent 130 is generally a media management software module that conducts data, as directed by the storage manager 115, between the client computer 105 and one or more storage devices 135 such as a tape library, a magnetic media storage device, an optical media storage device, or other storage device. The media agent 130 is communicatively coupled with and controls the storage device 135. For example, the media agent 130 might instruct the storage device 135 to use a robotic arm or other means to load or eject a media cartridge, and to archive, migrate, or restore application specific data. The media agent 130 generally communicates with the storage device 135 via a local bus such as a SCSI adaptor. In some embodiments, the storage device 135 is communicatively coupled to the data agent 130 via a Storage Area Network ("SAN").
Each media agent 130 maintain an index cache 120 which generally stores index data the system generates during backup, migration, and restore storage operations as further described herein. For example, storage operations for Microsoft Exchange data generate index data such as file names, file locations, media identifiers, and other information. Index data provides the system with an efficient mechanism for locating user files for recovery operations. This index data is generally stored with the data backed up to the storage device 135, and the media agent 130 that controls the storage operation also writes an additional copy of the index data to its index cache 120. The data in the media agent 130 index cache 120 is thus readily available to the system for use in storage operations and other activities without having to be first retrieved from the storage device 135.
The storage manager 115 also maintains an index cache 120. Index data is also used to indicate logical associations between components of the system, user preferences, management tasks, network pathways, data associations, storage policies, user preferences, and other useful data. For example, the storage manager 115 might use its index cache 120 to track logical associations between media agents 130 and storage devices 135.
Index caches 120 typically reside on their corresponding storage component's hard disk or other fixed storage device. Like any cache, the index cache 120 has finite capacity and the amount of index data that can be maintained directly corresponds to the size of that portion of the disk that is allocated to the index cache 120. In one embodiment, the system manages the index cache 120 on a least recently used ("LRU") basis as known in the art. When the capacity of the index cache 120 is reached, the system overwrites those files in the index cache 120 that have been least recently accessed with the new index data. In some embodiments, before data in the index cache 120 is overwritten, the data is copied to an index cache 120 copy in a storage device 135. If a recovery operation requires data that is no longer stored in the index cache 120, such as in the case of a cache miss, the system recovers the index data from the index cache 120 copy stored in the storage device 135.
As previously discussed, firewalls 125 reside between components of the system and generally function to prevent unauthorized access to the system. Thus, for example, a firewall 125 may reside between a client 105 and the storage manager 125, between the storage manager 125 and a media agent 130, or between other system components. For example, a remote client 105 across the Internet or other wide area network may pass traffic associated with storage operations and other operations to the system via a firewall 125. As another example, the system may perform remote storage operations, such as remote disaster recovery operations or other operations, and pass traffic associated with storage operations from the storage manager 125 across the Internet or other wide area network to a remote media agent 130. These examples are not intended to be limiting and other useful configurations will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art.
In some embodiments, components of the system may reside and execute on the same computer. In some embodiments, a client computer 105 component such as a data agent 100, a media agent 130, or a storage manager 115 coordinates and directs local archiving, migration, and retrieval application functions as further described in application Ser. No. 09/610,738. This client computer 105 component can function independently or together with other similar client computer 105 components.
The system increases security of storage operations through a firewall 125 by, among other things, drastically reducing the number of ports required as compared to existing storage management systems. The system negotiates a limited number of ports in advance, so that only certain pre-established ports need be open to storage operation traffic. The system also provides a built-in timeout value which is less than the firewall 125 timeout value to eliminate firewall 125 timeouts requiring further renegotiation to open another port.
A port configuration file specifying the ports to open for each system computer is stored in the index cache 120 or other memory of each machine. In some embodiments, the storage manager 115 index cache 120 also contains a master list of all open ports for all computers in the system which can be accessed by and distributed to other machines in the system as necessary. For example, a port configuration file may specify that only ports 8600 to ports 8620 should be opened for use by the system. System hardware and software modules will thus only listen to those ports and all other available ports will remain closed unless requested by some other application, service, process, etc.
The system reserves and also limits the number of ports used by each system component such as the storage manager 115, data agents 100, and media agents 130. In one embodiment, port limitations are based on the minimal number of ports required to conduct storage operations.
For example, the storage manager 115 is allocated seven ports. Three ports carry control data such as start and stop messages, control checksums, parity blocks, and other control data. Three additional ports serve as reserve ports and may be used to support traffic overflow or additional control signals. The final port is used to conduct traffic associated with a graphical user interface ("GUI"). For example, in some embodiments, users at client computers 105 can remotely access the storage manager 115 control GUI and other GUI interfaces. The final port is used to carry signals associated with remote access to the GUI. As another example, the final port also carries signals associated with a user at the storage manager 115 remotely accessing GUIs at clients 115 and media agents 130. Media agents 115 and data agents 100 are allocated two ports each: one port sends data upstream from the component to the storage manager 115 and one port receives data sent downstream from the storage manager 115 to the component. In some embodiments, media agents 115 and data agents 100 are allocated two additional ports to communicate upstream and downstream with other media agents 115 or data agents 100. Additional pairs of ports can be allocated to media agents 115 and data agents 100 to provide increased bandwidth, such as for additional backup streams or restore streams.
A "hostile computer" configuration file specifying a list of "hostile" computers is also stored in the index cache 120 or other memory of each machine. In some embodiments, the storage manager 115 index cache 120 also contains a master list of all "hostile" computers in the system which can be accessed by and distributed to other machines in the system as necessary. In some embodiments, a "friendly computer" configuration file specifying a list of "friendly computers is used instead of or concurrently with a "hostile computer" configuration file.
This second configuration file enables, among other thing, the system to determine which computers should pass traffic through the listed firewall 125 ports in the port configuration file and which computers are exempt from passing traffic through the firewall 125. For example, computers behind the firewall 125 can pass traffic through any ports since they are within the "trusted" network and thus their network traffic does not need to be evaluated by the firewall 125. Conversely, when one computer is behind the firewall 125 and one computer is not, then traffic between those computers must pass through the firewall 125 via the ports specified in the ports configuration file.
According to one embodiment of the invention, the "hostile computer" configuration file specifying the list of "hostile" computers lists all computers which are on the other side or "hostile" side of the firewall 125 from the computer on which the second configuration file is stored. Traffic with computers not on the list (e.g.—"friendly" computers) is routed directly, however, traffic with computers on the list (e.g.—"hostile" computers) is routed through the firewall 125. Thus if the storage manager 115 and a media agent 130 are on the "friendly" side of the firewall 125 and a data agent 100 is on the "hostile" side, the storage manager 125 and the media agent 130 configuration files would each list the data agent 100, and the data agent 100 configuration file would list both the storage manager 125 and the media agent 130. Computers identified on the second configuration file list are identified according to a network address, an IP address, a DNS entry, a UNC pathway, or other network identifier known in the art.
At startup, system components, such as data agents 100, data agents 130, and the storage manager 115 access their ports configuration files and the "hostile computer" configuration files. Data is thus routed through ports in the firewall 125 as appropriate and according to security parameters set forth in the configuration files.
The system also stores a "keep alive" value or key in the index cache 120 or other memory of each machine. The "keep alive" value is generally a value that is less than the connection timeout value specified in the firewall 125 configuration files. The system uses the "keep alive" value, among other things, to prevent the firewall 125 from timing out connections or otherwise closing ports due to network connection failures, slowdowns, or other events which might create vulnerabilities. The system tracks the time period that a connection between a system component, as a data agent 100, and a firewall 125 has remained idle. If the connection remains idle for a period of time equal or greater than the "keep alive" value, then the system sends a "dummy" packet or other similar packet to the firewall 125 to refresh the connection and restart the timer on the firewall connection timeout value.
In some embodiments, it may be necessary or desirable that chunk creation time be less than a firewall time-out interval, to prevent firewall time-out from occurring. Therefore, if chunk creation time is greater than the firewall time-out interval, then chunk size may be reduced, such as by the storage manager, as necessary to reduce chunk creation time to less than that of the firewall time-out interval.

REAP is an independent, refugee-led organisation in West London that aims to empower refugees and asylum seekers to live as valuable and valued members of British society. We work towards this aim through practical and policy-oriented activities in partnership with others: through communication and building capability of those individuals who have sought refuge in the UK, and their communities; by promoting equality for refugees in all their diversity; by working alongside organisations and individual activists and professionals that support refugees as they rebuild their own lives.
