Daniel's Intuit Blog - pulse of Asterisk & Nagios

Good morning

Here some pictures of our 5 day Asterisk training where we did a lot of practical work like:

- Setting up asterisk and FreePBX from scratch on Debian
- Configure anal0g and PRI cards
- Play with the dial plan
- Install snap-a-number
- Trunk two Asterisk servers
- Integrate Click-to-Dial with PHP
- Javascript integration
- Building a active-passive cluster

Cheers

good morning everyone

We are all very busy here at Intuit with projects (no, i don't complain about that...)

myself, i'm working on a tutorial and installation script for Asterisk clusters as well as vicidial... thats a though piece a software... at the same time we are implementing Nagios for a insurance company.

Feroz the "latest" addition to our Intuit team went through a 3 day oil platform survival training together with my business partner Sanjay. Yes, some Intuit'ers
actually work and some enjoy themselves in some kind of trainings which involves jumping from towers into a swimming pool, fire fighting and god knows what else they did...

After the training we send Feroz on his mission to analyze and collect data from our clients oil platform in regards to all communication networks (satellite, microwave, LAN, ETC).

Btw. all communication between the platform and the HQ is done via Asterisk infrastructure... smile.

So i think Feroz was pretty excited and was looking forward to the helicopter ride.
In total he staid 4 days on the platform, sharing a room with four other guys...
(we don't want to go into details here....)

Here some pictures:

The super-puma which provide the ride for Feroz(and 15 others..):

He arrived on the platform:

New friends (Feroz is in the center... where else...?):

We have him back and already working on many new interesting Intuit adventures, so that we never ever get bored here at the pulse of Nagios and Asterisk in Asia-Pacific... smile.

Enjoy your Sunday!!!!!

Good morning

I'm currently conducting a 5 day Asterisk training here in Kuala Lumpur for Sectraining Sdn Bhd, and therefore my time to blog is a little bit limited.

I will upload the training tutorials (material) next week.Maybe some of the content can be helpful for your daily work with Asterisk.

We are thinking of conducting a 1-2 day online training on how to build asterisk clusters. But not sure if there is a interest out there.
What do you guys think?

Cheers
Daniel

Good Evening

We are just finished our ICCE 2008 here in Kuala Lumpur. We all had a good time and a couple of very interesting discussions around Asterisk (may it result in projects hopefully).

Thanks Mark (www.red-fone.com) for your support and thsi event. Im sure we can boost the sales of your amazing devices quickly here in the region.

I met Professor Reg Coutts (University of Adelaide) and we have and will discuss some very interesting venture around a Asterisk solution.

Here are pictures of some of our Intuiter's:
