The primary goal of most companies is to successfully grow and one notable challenge facing companies seeking to expand their business is often managing the growth of their IT infrastructure. The 5 tips listed in this guide provide a comprehensive set of measures for organising and structuring your IT infrastructure to support your company’s growth.
Accelerate Innovation & Productivity With Rapid Prototyping & Development - ...Attivio
Today, development teams typically need hundreds of person hours to develop an application or to fully
integrate a new platform. Prototypes and Proofs of Concept (PoC) also take many weeks (or even months)
to develop. If you could significantly reduce these timeframes, you would accelerate time to market and
expedite PoCs and rollouts. This advantage saves money and reduces the risk of missing features, late deliveries or inadequate testing.

Why not let apm do all the heavy lifting beyond the basics of monitoring | Sw...Swatantra Kumar
In a short period, the complexity of technology increased exponentially. The number of frameworks that appear “overnight”, together with new architectural patterns and distributed teams, can pose several challenges. Keeping such a complex landscape in check requires constant monitoring.
Choosing the right monitoring solution, not only for the project but also for the team dynamics, will help to identify the possible areas of improvement. Furthermore, embedding a monitoring solution within the development cycle of a product will help to reduce the number of problems that can appear in each step, and might also help shorten the amount of time generally needed in identifying the area of service disruption.
We all know AI has a key role to play in analyzing and drawing insight from the vast amounts of data in our increasingly complex, interconnected, software-dependent world. This playbook explores how.

1. The Build vs.Buy Decision
Exploring a Third Alternative
This whitepaper explores the classic IT conundrum of build vs buy, specifically
in terms of acquiring a real-time streaming analytics platform.
2. As a result, streaming analytics platforms are fast becoming
a must-have technology for enterprises seeking to build real-
time applications. But, where to begin? Open Source? Build it
yourself? Or buy it? And if buying is the answer, then from whom?
The question of build vs buy is really not a new one; in fact, it’s
a classic IT conundrum. Unmediated, the whole conversation
can devolve into nothing more than an esoteric, philosophical
debate. However, there are many reasons the debate continues, and
we’d like to offer a fresh look at that as it applies to the
decision around building vs buying a Real-Time Streaming Analytics
(RTSA) platform.
The first fact that we must admit is this: There is
something incredibly enticing about having complete control over
the creation of your own analytics platform.
But then again, few things compare to having a team of experts do it
for you.
And therein lies the foundation of the problem. Which is better?
This whitepaper will outline the trade-offs involved.
There are obviously attractive qualities to both options which is why
it is such an ongoing debate. Many companies that plan to adopt
a solution will consider the in-house option first because they like
the idea that such a solution will be easier to adopt, (especially
when Open Source solutions abound). The sense of freedom,
control, and lack of dependency on an external provider may also
be alluring. Will this option ultimately be less costly? Will it be
more scalable? This paper considers the pros and cons of doing-
it-yourself against the option of buying a pre-built solution.
Some of the considerations include issues of time, cost, human
resources and the organizations' goals and strategies. This paper
also looks at the four categories of buying options to help you
determine which road to take if that is the direction you decide to
go.
The build vs. buy decision is an important part of the development
process. Either choice can be valid depending on the situation.
If you’re in a “build” versus “buy” quandary, this paper tackles
these questions as they apply to developing an RTSA platform and
attempts to offer some insights for your consideration.
Introduction
E
nterprises are realizing the power that resides in real-time
information, and they want it. Now.

3. The market for streaming analytics platforms is gaining momentum
far beyond its origins in industrial operations and financial services.
You don’t need an outside consulting analyst to know that
streaming analytics is red hot right now. Hadoop may have been what
opened our eyes to what is possible with big data, but the
exhilaration around real-time streaming is all about what is
possible when dealing with “fast data.” Fast data (or data in
motion) is about compressing and accelerating time to insight and
ultimately time to action when dealing with the many streaming data
sources that are available to enterprises today.
Today, streaming analytics platforms are available for every
industry from a variety of enterprise software companies, pure-play
vendors, and open source platforms.
There are four major categories of sourcing options for organizations
wanting to address real-time streaming use cases.
BIG ENTERPRISE SOFTWARE VENDORS
OPEN SOURCE STREAMING PROJECTS
The Market for Streaming Analytics
Platforms is Dynamic
Categories
Pros: Proven, industrial-strength solutions that include enterprise
integration and tooling.
Cons: Potential cost and complexity of implementation; not
specialized in RTSA.
Summary: Enterprise software platforms generally cost more
than solutions based on open source; may require the
purchasing of other prerequisite software from the vendor and
may not be as easy to integrate with other software platforms.
The plus side is they typically deliver feature richness and have
a certain level of longevity in the marketplace.
Pros: Free to use and an increasing number of projects to
choose from. The open source community is a potentially
powerful source of new innovation.
Cons: Lacks enterprise development/management tools and relies
on the community for support.
Summary: Open source offerings are getting a lot of
attention today, especially Apache Storm which is in use by
well-known companies with high volumes of streaming data,
such as Twitter, Spotify, and Groupon. It is, however, a very
technical platform that lacks the higher order tools and
streaming operators that are provided by highly-rated vendor
platforms. This means you really have to be prepared to “Do-It-
Yourself.”
3
4. EMERGING STREAMING ANALYTIX PROVIDERS
CLOUD EXCLUSIVE STREAMING ANALYTICS SERVICES
Pros: Purpose-built for today’s diverse streaming analytics
apps. These companies often leverage open source and augment
it with enterprise class tooling and support.
Cons: Still early in the market cycle to predict the extent of adoption
of solution.
Summary: A handful of streaming analytics providers are out there
who are driven by the availability of innovative open source
technology.
Pros: Pay-per-use model and integration with other cloud services.
Cons: Provides only limited analytical operators and lacks an on
premise solution.
Summary: There are some cloud exclusive streaming
analytics services, such as those offered by Amazon and Google,
but these platforms are designed exclusively for application
developers, can be difficult to code and may lack many of the
higher level tools that enterprise-class vendors provide.
4
5. The following list outlines a few trade-offs involved with a “Do It
Yourself” strategy.
Extended customization
In-house development means more control over the process.
This gives you greater personalization and a platform built to your
exact specifications.
Ownership of product and differentiation
Most organizations opting for ‘build’ are interested in the end-to-end
ownership of the product without the need for vendor dependencies.
Personnel risk
Requires a development team that is familiar with the rigors of
product development and the need to ensure that the platform is
scalable, extensible and supportable. If you do have such a team,
there is the risk of over-dependency on one or a few individuals who
designed and developed the solution.
Timelines and opportunity cost
Application development cannot start until the development
platform is ready. This could mean delays to delivering the application
business benefits. Time spent building the platform could have
gone directly into building the applications — potentially
delivering improved time-to-value and higher ROI.
The bottom line
Ultimately the decision here may be a function of to what extent
the company wants to be in the platform development and
maintenance business as a strategy of being totally self-sufficient vs
implementing a pre-built solution that may carry some vendor
dependencies but allows them to get started quickly building
solutions for the business.

6. The following list outlines some of the tradeoffs when buying a vendor
provided solution.
Rapid integration and a simplified approach
Commercial software platforms developed by industry-
recognized providers come with an implied guarantee that the
system has been tried and tested and is relatively error-free. The
expectation is that commercial platforms are standardized and
stable. Implementation should follow a repeatable, well defined
methodology. Application development can begin right away since
you are not waiting for the platform development to be completed.
Training and support services
Commercial software vendors frequently deliver a broad range
of support and maintenance capabilities including training,
and professional services.
This offers reduced costs for managing and maintaining a skilled
internal staff to enhance or repair the platform.
Inadequacies, cost management and inefficiencies
Product may include unneeded features or unused functionality.
The platform may possess more generic capabilities to meet the
needs of a broad user base.
Out of pocket costs for vendor software services and support may
exceed expectations.
The buyer could experience vendor lock-in and over-dependence on
the vendor’s road map for future enhancements.
The bottom line
A vendor provided solution potentially removes the risk involved
with being in the product development business and
presents the opportunity to focus on delivering business
solutions sooner by leveraging a pre-built platform and vendor
experts who have “been there before.”
The tradeoff may be some loss of self-sufficiency and the ability to
tailor the platform to what are perceived to be unique
requirements. Dependence on the vendor for enhancements and
even “vendor lock-in” may also become inherent risks.
