Big Data, Cloud, Mobile and Social strategies

Big Data: What news does it bring?

By Accenture

In my previous blog posts I have paid a lot of attention to the importance of managing data as a corporate asset. Up until today, the focus in most of the projects I am involved in is still on an organization’s internal, structured data, with solutions like an MDM repository for customers, vendors etc, data governance and data quality dashboards.

What I am recently asking myself, is how this traditional approach of data management will change as a result of the digital revolution we are currently going through. When I am hosting a workshop or giving a presentation I always like to show a movie that tells the story of the enormous explosion of data and information in recent years and how most organizations feel they are not in control of this.

Lazy by design – actually a good thing

By Red Hat

There is little in the working life that reduces motivation more than having to do the same boring thing multiple times like setting up the development environment for each new project. That’s why my work ethic is trying to be lazy by design and I can tell you how to do this.

By lazy by design I don’t mean being lazy. I mean that you have to make sure that the things you do ideally are done in such a matter that they are either done right the first time. And if that isn’t possible, make sure that the amount of work is reduced next time you have to do it.

Identity Analytics: Exploiting Digital Breadcrumbs

Cyrille Bataller, Managing Director, Accenture Technology Labs Europe

Identity management is rapidly evolving from discrete authentication, username/passwords or challenge-response approaches to a seamless, holistic capability to recognize individuals, to provide stronger security and better facilitation and customer service. This presentation will explore how a broader set of identity analytics, using biometrics, social media data and the wealth of digital breadcrumbs we leave during every day activities, can be used to form a person-centric view of customers, citizens and employees, and provide a foundation of trust for better, more relevant services, while reducing costs, fraud and enhancing privacy.

Roel Hodzelmans, Solution Architect, Red Hat

Developers, ever got tired of having to wade though lot’s of red tape and a lengthy process for getting that server? Or how about having to set up a clean environment each time you start a new project?

Administrators, ever got tired of having to install a server for the developers? How about helping them configure their software? Or what about having many configurations to support because the developers use almost the same software instead of exactly the same software?

The answer for both of you lies with OpenShift PaaS by Red Hat. In this talk I will describe what it is, how it works (and which components it consists of) and how it will make your working live easier by letting you focus on the things you want to do, instead of the peripherals.
