CIO | 3 STEPS to Maximizing ROI for Microsoft Lync Enterprise VoiceChristiaan Stavorinus
ENTERPRISES ARE STANDING AT A CROSSROADS AND COMMUNICATION IS KEY TO SUCCESS.
In today’s highly competitive, global marketplace. Executives need to make decisions quickly, but information and employees are spread out in many different locations. To operate efficiently, businesses need fast, simple ways to exchange data.
As a result, many enterprises stand at an important crossroad. They have invested large sums in legacy Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) network voice infrastructures that do not easily support modern Unified Communications (UC) solutions, such as the increasingly popular Microsoft Lync.
“About 70% of businesses are now using Lync in some fashion,” states Irwin Lazar, Vice President and Service Director for The Nemertes Research Group, Inc. “Most of these companies use it for instant messaging, web conferencing, and voice/video chat. A small but growing percentage are using it to replace or augment their PBXs.”
In addition to delivering new communication options, Unified Commu- nications delivers other benefits. By leaving behind their legacy PBX and moving ahead to a new Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) network infrastructure, businesses reduce their capital expenditure (CapEx) and lower their ongoing maintenance requirements, which can decrease their operating expenditure (OpEx) by as much as 50%.
The transition from the old to the new works with the right network infrastructure. Enterprises need one that is rock solid. “Today, businesses simply cannot tolerate downtime,” says James Rodd, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Modality Systems, Unified Communications specialists. Businesses must also have a way to integrate their traditional systems with new, modern functions. Finally, they need a solution that offers robust security, so corporate data
is protected as it travels from location to location. To deliver such functionality, enterprises need a Session Border Controller (SBC) that works in conjunction with Lync to enable the delivery of sophisticated voice, data, and video services to enterprise users.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

The Portlet Factory capability we have for smart devices is quite flexible. You're not dealing with any templates. You can use whatever HTML style sheet and JavaScript technologies to control the look and feel of the branding experience for richness and customization. Within our Portlet Factory product, it's a plugin to Eclipse, so you would be leveraging the Eclipse environment. We will deliver capability soon with PhoneGap available through Portal Factory and thus Eclipse. One of the unique values of the Portlet Factory is its ability to profile. Any factor or any variable that you plug into a handler can be set up to profile the experience of that portlet including how it displays in a mobile device. One of the benefits of the profiling engine is the ability to write the element once and have it display in either a Web browser or in a mobile device based on different characteristics configured in the profile that is set up. If you create one application that's tailored for a desktop, you just have to simply put in some additional parameters for that same application to be optimized for a different type of form factor such as a smartphone. The philosophical idea behind Portlet Factory is that you can create builders and then others can use those builders to implement the applications they need to implement. That enables someone who is really well versed to deliver either to a mobile platform and/or integrate with the backend system. So the ability to encapsulate in the most efficient and flexible way with the builder. Then others who implement applications can use that builder and they get the benefit of that efficiency and that flexibility as they go. So, we have a starting point for our customers that's extensible and changeable. It allows customers to not only deliver more efficiently and but also tailor their developer skill set.
Positioning In 2011, mobile will be a big focus area for us. After all, the number of people accessing the mobile Internet is growing fast and is expected to overtake the PC as the most popular way to get on the Web within five years. Before detailing some of the upcoming capabilities, let's just review what we have in market today. We have MPA – targeted at customers that need to deploy mobile web experiences that target a broad number of phones and operating systems, including monochrome phones, rugged devices, and smart phones. For customers that are interested in delivering mobile applications to smartphones only, we have two options. First, we have our mobile theme, which optimizes the navigation and look & feels aspects of the web experience for mobile devices. In creating this theme, we focused on making sure the markup is skinny-ed down to ensure optimum speeds over 2g and 3g networks. Customers can use their development tools of choice along with this theme, to tailor the necessary applications (or widgets or portlers) for the mobile form factor. For customers that are looking to development mobile applications to smartphones only, and are looking for ways to dramatically speed the process of creating those mobile applications, we offer websphere portlet factory. WPF combined with the mobile theme can save customers a lot of time and effort in deploying web-based smartphone applications that have a native look and feel.
Slide 3: What Customers are Requesting: Hybrid Approach In terms of our mobile strategy moving forward, we believe that taking a hybrid approach to mobile development is the way to go for developing mobile enterprise applications. We believe this approach gives you the best of both worlds: you can access the native features of the device without having to create native applications for each desired operating system you can also write the apps in standard web technologies – html, javascript, css – but still get a native look and feel to your applications To that end, you will see us moving beyond supporting just standard web-enabled mobile experience to hybrid experiences. We have folks in research bluewashing the open source phonegap framework. Note- PhoneGap enables software programmers to build applications for mobile devices using JavaScript, HTML and CSS, instead of languages such as Objective-C or straight java. The resulting application are hybrid, meaning that they are neither truly native (all layout rendering is done via the webview) nor purely web based (much of the functionalities would be supported by HTML5).
