CNM Lab Essentials

What CNM Lab Is (hereinafter, the Lectio) is the primary lecture that introduces its participants to CNM Lab. The Lectio is the nineth part of the second learning activity, which is the CNM Cyber Entrance Exam preparation lesson, of the CNM Cyber Welcome Course. The Lectio is preceded by the What CNM Social Is and succeeded by What CNM Cloud Is. The word, lectio, is used for a lesson part at CNM Cyber.

Up to this point, this lesson has covered two suites. The CNM Competency Suite grouped 15 services and CNM Action Suite grouped 5 services of CNM Cyber. The remaining two services belong to the last suite called CNM Platform Suite. One of them, CNM Cabin, has already been covered. CNM Lab is the last service that this lesson touches.

CNM Lab is the primary service for those developers who work on CNM Cyber's software. This service is provided through three systems, which are project management, version control, and file-sharing ones.

CNM Lab's project management system treats every development as a project. For instance, only those developers who actively work on CNM Cert's development can assign, re-assign, or report on the project tasks, as well as can access its private details published by the secure wiki engine that is embedded in this system and get the update notifications.

CNM Lab's file-sharing system contains all the web documents, source code and other files that have been used in CNM Cyber's development. CNM Lab's version control system allows for the management of all the changes to every of them.

Only administrators of CNM Cyber can manually grant access to CNM Cyber users; it is not granted automatically.

CNM Lab vs CNM Wiki

CNM Wiki is not the only development hub included into CNM Cyber. CNM Lab is another one. But before we get there, let's point out the main difference between the two. It is privacy.

CNM Wiki is completely open. Everyone can see that 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Even pre-entry-level developers can see the development process.

On the contrary, CNM Lab is fully secured. Actually, it has to be cyber-secure in order to provide CNM Cyber with cyber-security.

CNM Lab stores highly sensitive information that cannot be open to the public. CNM Lab' version control system is dedicated and its software repository can contain not only image files, but any type of single files and even software development projects.

CNM Lab' document collaboration system is integrated into projects, so only a particular project team can collaborate on the content for that project.

Indeed, CNM Lab has its dedicated project management system. It allows for creating and controlling various tasks and advanced communication. CNM Wiki's discussion pages can possibly mimic that, though they are not designed to be a project management system per se.

We are about to move from CNM Lab to the other services. But before that, let's note the piggy bank icon on the CNM Cyber image. Why is that? Because CNM Lab is the place where the vendors make money when they deliver their works. The Welcome to WorldOpp Team presentation covers this process in better details.
