There is a prerequisite to acquire the proper license of highstock before using the Netflix ICE. I do not want to invest any money into it, just want to explore the features of ICE.
Do I have to buy a proper licence of highstock before using Netflix ICE?
If you want to test and try netflix ice OSS locally or for personal use then no, you don't need to spend cash as it is clearly mentioned on their site[http://www.highcharts.com/products/highcharts/#non-commercial] also.
But if you're using netflix ice commercially then you have to buy appropriate license from highcharts. It is more of a license usage question so may be you try reading about the license details highcharts is using, that weather the free version of highcharts can be used with the production environment of Netflix OSS project.

What would be the best way for me to actually grab data from this block? Even if I try to pick things up like img src, head quarters, or a href links, it's a big string where I can't easily split that makes sense.
Don't treat it as a string, treat it as an HTML document. Then you can employ the full power of CSS or XPath selectors (or even manual traversal using Ruby methods).
require 'nokogiri'
doc = Nokogiri::HTML.fragment(str)
# img src
doc.at_css('img')["src"]
# => "https://we-work-remotely.imgix.net/logos/0015/9022/logo.gif?ixlib=rails-2.1.3&w=50&h=50&dpr=2&fit=fill&auto=compress"
# headquarters
doc.at_xpath('.//strong[contains(text(), "Headquarters")]/following-sibling::text()').text.strip
# => "San Francisco"
I am looking for storage and database infrastructure that can help me save and retrieve information from my Swift codebase app. But I have no experience with server-side code. Requirements have no need for full blown backend solution and REST API. My application is proof of concept where I would use Cocoa frameworks in Xcode. After a some research I am missing information regarding to cost management of few popular services. I am new to iOS development and would like to learn a simple server-side component, but at the same time I do not want to pay fees for production usage.
I am looking for service to achieve this goal, with the following features:
can save location coordinates form app
can save images taken from app
can retrieve location and images from storage
I like Parse Bitnami, IBM Bluemix, Azure App but it fails in a critical way because I have to pay for it without being profitable to start with.
Regarding IBM Bluemix I see it is again 90 days trial free. Does anyone have experience with price after trial? As well know Azure App is also an option but I am hoping for real-time DB or cloud DB solutions. Amazon is charging services of 4-5$ per month on a free tier and I would like to leave them.1 year free AWS tier
Have you considered CloudKit? It is a part of the iOS development toolbox and is free for up to 10 million active users. It is somewhat limited but should be enough for what you are trying to make. Also, it's made and hosted by apple and they have a good library (CloudKit) that is already available inside Xcode.

I've been reading a lot about integration between ALMs, and I was interested on IBM's so called open source platform, Jazz.
This could open the possibility to buy IBM products which integrate with the Jazz platform but for now I just want to understand the scope of the free product.
Can you actually grab the Jazz product and integrate with whatever with their SDK?
Yup. RTC is free for less than 10 developers: https://jazz.net/downloads/rational-team-concert/releases/4.0.6
Reading their stuff hurts my brain! Has anyone crossed this road?
I had an attorney look at it and the conclusion he came to was that if the app was not free, we could not use their API. I've heard of people getting a for-profit account with Google for using other services (routing, specifically), but I have not tried that approach yet.
Reading their stuff hurts my brain!
What were you reading?
The Google API ToS seems pretty straightforward. I don't see anything there that specifically prohibits use in commercial apps. There's a line in there about some APIs being offered under an open source license, and that license trumping provisions of the ToS, but I don't see any indication of that being the case for the chart API.
Of course, I am not a lawyer, and more importantly I'm not your lawyer. If you need legal advice, get it from someone qualified and paid to protect your interests.
Yes you can, other wise they wouldn't publish the API.
They do reserve the right to jam advertising into their charts.
[edit] From Google's page: http://code.google.com/apis/chart/
"Google chart tools are powerful, simple to use, and free."
That seems pretty straight forward.
I am looking for SDKs which can do finger print matching. Rest of my code is mostly in C so I prefer if the SDK has C API's. Also it would be great if the SDK is free. Does anybody has experience with these SDKs and recommend any particular SDK? Also, while looking in these SDK what are the important features I should concentrate?
I've used two SDKs in the past, but only as a C# developer. Both the SDKs below say that they support C:
Griaule Fingerprint SDK (requires paid-for license)
Digital Persona OneTouch (free sdk)
A quick summary of features to consider:
Are you verifying that a fingerprint matches that of a known user, or identifying a user from a single fingerprint?
The Griaule SDK implements both Verify and Identify patterns.
DigitalPersona's free SDK only supports Verify - to Identify, you have to loop through all the fingerprints in your database and see which one matches best. They state that this is 'inefficient', but if you have very few users (< 200), it seems quick enough.
Adjustment of discrimination sensitivity (false positives/false negatives)
Balance up how closely a print must be identified. A high sensitity may cause a legitimate user's prints to be rejected, but a low sensitivity may match one users' prints to the wrong user. Assess the impact of each case and code accordingly.
The deployment overheads differed - the DP components came with a merge module, but I only recall seeing standalone installs for Griaule.
What fingerprint capture devices are you intending to support? Check very carefully that the SDK will support yours!
Check the licensing terms very carefully the Griaule costs can be substantial based on the number of clients you expect to roll out to.
The Griaule SDK required a license file be deployed, both on client and server.
DP (free edition) did not.
The .NET DP SDK came with a visually pretty, and easy to use, fingerprint registration dialog, but the version I downloaded (v1.4.0) had a bug with the fingerprint capture component taking up to 10 seconds to initialise. I don't know if this has been resolved yet. However, it was straightforward to code a bespoke UI.
Overall, I favoured the DP SDK, but it was a close-run thing. Basically, being license-free and better documented suited me more.
You can use Innovatrics IDKit PC SDK. You can get a free version for 6 months. This provides a C API as well as a C# API. I have been extremely impressed with this package.
If your platform is not a PC, there are packages for other platforms as well.
This is very useful with detail information about fingerprint integration with windows based software: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/38881/Fingerprint-Reader-Integration-using-the-M-SYS-SDK This integration was using this fingerprint sdk. It solves problems with low level free sdks and also supports other biometric modality.
This is a really simple question, but the answer is really complicated. Most of the Free or at least royalty free matching SDKs are tied to a vendors fingerprint scanner. If you are wanting to use one of those SDKs you will have to commit to their scanners.
The next question is how is the software going to be used. Fingerprint matcher tend to fall into one of two categories, 1 to 1 or 1 to N. 1 to 1 is assuming you know who the user is and you want to just VERIFY their identity with a fingerprint. 1 to N searches through a database of users and finds them by their fingerprint. Depending on the size of your user population, if you are doing 1 to N you may need to confirm the performance of the algorithm first to ensure it will meet your needs.
The other option that you have is there are fingerprint scanners that do what is known as match on device. These scanners have embedded matching algorithms and databases that do all the work for you. You get all the licenses you need when you buy the fingerprint sensor. These are really useful in embedded applications.
