Ensuring High-Availability for Hybrid Cloud-Based Apps
The dynamic nature of the cloud means that change is a constant when it comes
to modern cloud-based infrastructure. Delivering modern applications to end
users, therefore, is a constantly shifting challenge. Delivery automation
helps IT Ops teams ensure that apps are providing an optimal end user
experience over hybrid-cloud and multi-cloud environments, no matter what the
current state of the infrastructure is. To employ a delivery automation
strategy that reflects your business rules, making real-time decisions based
on a combination of real user monitoring, synthetic testing, APM, NGINX /
local load balancers, and other data sources, is critical.
In his session at 21st Cloud Expo, Simon Jones, Evangelist and head of
marketing for Cedexis, will show you how easy it can be to leverage these
disparate data sourc... (more)
Waterfall Still Going Strong - But Is It Time for a Hybrid Approach?
The nature of the technology business is forward-thinking. It focuses on the
future and what's coming next. Innovations and creativity in our world of
software development strive to improve the status quo and increase customer
satisfaction through speed and increased connectivity.
Yet, while it's exciting to see enterprises embrace new ways of thinking and
advance their processes with cutting edge technology, it rarely happens
rapidly or even simultaneously across all industries.
For most organizations, the adoption of new technologies is a slow process
and the larger they are and the longer they've been around, the more time it
takes to make significant changes.
What does this mean for the advancement of the software development industry?
It means that solution providers need to assess not only wher... (more)

I recently had the opportunity to give a 10-minute keynote at DataWorks
Summit 2017. I know what most of you are thinking: Schmarzo can barely
introduce himself in 10 minutes! What sort of keynote could he give in just
10 minutes? And to be honest, I too struggled with what to say.
But after some brainstorming with my marketing experts (Jeff Abbott, Erin
Banks, and Chris Hill), we came up with an idea: Pose five questions that
every organization needs to consider as they prepare themselves for digital
transformation. And while I didn’t have enough time in 10 minutes to
answer those questions in a keynote, I certainly do in a blog!
So here we go!!
Question #1: How effective is your organization at leveraging data and
analytics to power your business model?
The Big Data Business Model Maturity Index was developed to help
organizations to measure or benchmark their... (more)
