On April 23, 2024, we had the pleasure of welcoming a group of dedicated CodeClubMG students to the Chair of High Performance Computing (Computer Science 12). The visit was organized by Tom Hilgers, Master student of Computer Science and part of the operational management of CodeClubMG. “With the excursion, we bring the students closer to the world of computer science. We were able to show them that computer science is not just about programming, but a very diverse subject area,” Tom tells us.

Until now, telephone numbers and telephones were managed and controlled centrally.
With a new function in the TK-Portal, administrators can now manage telephones for their facilities independently.
To be able to use this, you need the “Verwaltung Telefonie” role, which can be issued to you by the relevant role manager.
You can find out exactly what the new function means below.

What does webhosting mean?
Webhosting refers to the provision of storage space (webspace) for the provision of websites. The people who create the website fill this webspace with different content, including images, videos, files, and fonts. Websites are similar to text documents that can be made available and accessed on the Internet. The content of the websites must be saved so that we can access them from anywhere at any time. However, this storage does not take place on a local computer, but on a high-performance server that is connected to the Internet around the clock. In this way, the created website remains continuously available online and the content can be accessed by users worldwide. RWTH Aachen University and FH Aachen University of Applied Sciences cooperate to provide webspace to institutes and student associations as webhosting providers.

Now we will continue with the Microsoft accounts of the employees, so that at the end of the clean-up campaign we can duly say goodbye to the RWTH-Tenant.
In today’s article, we’ll explain what the clean-up campaign is all about, what you should look out for, and where you need to take action yourself.
