5 reasons to modernize your backup infrastructure backup and beyondPawel Maczka
Webinar and presentation recorded on June 21st (IBM Spectrum Protect User Grop).
It’s no longer good enough for your virtual machine backup solution to just do the backup. It also needs to be API-driven to integrate with agile development processes. There are multiple reasons to modernize your backup infrastructure including; lower costs, better RPOs / RTOs, more modern management, new cloud capabilities and business agility. Businesses need the ability to have access to a copy of data for more than just data protection, but for DevOps, Analytics or Reporting. They need a modern solution that provides automation and secure user self-service that puts data in the hands of the people that need it fast. Join this session to see how “backup” can take you "beyond" and enable a competitive business.

GSE Nordic 2015 CICS Connectivity in DevOps The business driver behind adopting a DevOps approach to developing software, is the need to deliver applications to the market faster, with lower costs and higher quality. With CICS Transaction Server providing the core services on which many of these applications rely, the importance of being able to connect to CICS and reuse these core services continues to increase. When CICS introduced native Web services about a decade ago, SOA became a reality for CICS customers. Today, many customers are doing tens of millions of SOAP based CICS Web services per day. Some are doing much more. But SOAP based CICS Web services are only a part of the CICS connectivity story. Support for the REST architectural style in CICS is an increasingly popular alternative to SOAP. And JSON is a popular alternative to XML for many application use cases. In this session, we will explore the different CICS connectivity options, suggest use-cases in which they can be of most value, and most importantly, learn which is the right tool for the job.
This session will describe how CICS TS v5.1 can quickly and simply support the creation of modern Mobile Ready interfaces to existing applications. The session will introduce the key technologies including the use of Liberty technology in CICS TS. We will work through a simple scenario to demonstrate the key points. The session will cover the core supporting technologies include in CICS TS v5.1 as well as the Dynamic Scripting Feature Pack and content included in the CICS TS v5.2 Open Beta.

Blockchain is one of the most popular talking points in the IT industry today, with thousands of technical proofs, use-cases and experiments being planned and delivered to show the value of this technology. For all of this, when asked about production deployments of blockchain for the real enterprises of today, most of the proponents of this value will demur when it comes to talking production. Bridging this gap between science experiment and an enterprise quality platform for the modern business requires a great deal of work, much of which is done by the growing community of vendors who are collaborating to deliver not just the technical requirement and use-case solutions for blockchain, but also the practical tools to use blockchain in a meaningful way within a business. join this session to hear about the 5 key qualities that any practically usable enterprise blockchain will need to deliver and how the collaboration of enterprise vendors is making the practical use of Blockchain a reality for organisations in 2018.

“My systems work perfectly—it’s the applications that are the problem!” If you have ever said (or thought) that, then this session is for you. Outages do not have to be "an application issue" anymore. In CICS TS 5, new policy-based capabilities allow you to set thresholds on the resources that your applications are allowed to consume. Rogue applications can be detected through various task threshold policies, such as excessive file or database access, repetitive program links, or abnormal storage requests. Once detected, you have the ability to notify, to react, or to ABEND. There’s a new sheriff in town, and it’s you. Come to this session to learn how to exercise your new power wisely.
GSE Nordic 2015 Liberty, Egality, Fraternity “Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité” (Liberty, Equality, Fraternity), is the slogan of France, coined around the time of the French Revolution. It also seems a pretty appropriate slogan for the mini revolution that is happening right now with CICS and WebSphere. The Liberty profile is a highly composable and dynamic application server runtime environment that is shipped as a part of both WebSphere and CICS. This session will introduce Liberty in CICS, compare the capability with WebSphere (note the ‘equality’ word) and discuss how these new Liberty applications can interact with and support the established fraternity of existing CICS applications that run your core business.
GSE Nordic 2015 CICS Java – Beauty and the Beast After giving sessions about Java in the past few years that tell system programmers they should do Java on IBM z Systems and that Java is just like every other language, this session tries to explain why Java is a bit different in operating and handling. We will compare COBOL/PLI/Assembler with Java and provide insight into how the Java technology works on z Systems. Come along if you want to find out the answers to questions such as: Why can't you phase in a Java program? What does the JIT compiler do and how does it work?

S108 - 1 Billion Smartphones a year and counting – How is your CICS connected?nick_garrod
GSE Nordic 2015 1 Billion Smartphones a year and counting – How is your CICS connected? According to IDC, in 2013 “the worldwide smartphone market reached yet another milestone, having shipped one billion units in a single year for the first time”. This was an increase of almost 40% over 2012. If much of your business runs on CICS, you have probably already exposed at least some your CICS applications to the mobile world. But are you exposing these services in the optimal way for your company? Come to this session to discover what the supported options are for mobile exploitation in CICS Transaction Server, CICS Transaction Gateway and z/OS Connect. This session will compare and contrast the options available, so you can understand what is right for you. It will also discuss how you can use IBM MobileFirst with CICS TS to optimize your mobile deployments. Make sure your phone is on silent – you won’t want to be disturbed in this session.

Alt. GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using ...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).
