IBM argues that service management is key to unlocking cost savings from cloud computing. With service management, organizations can realize labor cost reductions of up to 50% through automation of routine tasks. Service management provides visibility, control, and automation to efficiently deliver cloud services through features like self-service portals, standardized service catalogs, and automated provisioning that can speed delivery times by 98% on average. ROI analyses show that service management can help organizations reduce costs and achieve payback periods of 4-12 months on cloud investments with estimated annual returns of 75-156%.

n this session, you will see how Affiliated Computer Services (ACS) provides a client-directed cloud solution focused on what customers want to do today. ACS has created a private cloud-based service that offers many of the benefits of a public cloud computing environment. The difference is that in a private cloud-based service, data and processes are managed within an ACS trusted environment without the security exposures and legal requirements that come with using public cloud services across open, public networks. Additionally, private cloud services can offer the enterprise greater control, thus improving security and resiliency as user access and the networks are restricted and designated.
Novell and ACS teamed together to build the ACS Management Platform, which enables you to fully manage the cloud service offerings, from the core management services to distributed multiple clouds running in multiple data centers. Learn how the ACS Management Platform provides streamlined service provisioning of application tiers and performance levels in a multi-tenant, virtualized, cross-cloud computing platforms. Additionally, it provides ITIL 3.0, Pharma and SOX compliance to ensure you have high levels of services at a much lower price than traditional service providers.
Learn how Novell and ACS are working together to help customers with the creation of various business models, which include the integration of services from different providers (public and private) to support and drive business innovation and optimization. This session will demonstrate a multi-phase delivery engagement model to define, integrate, and implement the technologies and processes necessary to deliver cloud-based services.
I had the opportunity to listen to leading CIOs in India and was also honored to speak in front of them. Here is the agenda of the summit. I also attended and presented at a similar event held in Delhi.
My topic was “Monetizing Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Implementation Models” where PaaS here is (what else :)) Windows Azure.

Ibm Smart Business Overview Jimmy MillsJimmy Mills
IBM has been talking about our vision for a smarter planet for close to a year now- and working with thousands of clients - with great success and traction taking hold. Every industry is experiencing the benefits, and feeling the challenges, being presented by a smarter planet that is more instrumented, interconnected and intelligent.
An example is cloud computing: The economics driving cloud computing is not new technologies. Rather it is the combination of existing technologies with a focus on the end user. Virtualization drives higher utilization which lowers capital and operating expenses. Standardization also reduces capital and labor costs, while automation drives enhance user experience and automates many manual tasks to reduce errors and reduce the costs associated with managing an environment.
IBM Cloud software stack with self service, rapid provisioning and resource management, cataloging, image deployment and metering services. Starter kit for cloud provides key benefits sought by IT managers including responsive and reliable workload deployment and resources on demand to support Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)...
IBM’s distribution sector industry value proposition: IBM collaborates with distributors to help improve customers’ experiences, optimize operations and supply chains, and drive organizational efficiencies.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
