An Introduction to the Model-View-Controller PatternTeamstudio
The only constant in software development is CHANGE. Every piece of software that has been developed and shipped to a customer will be changed numerous times during its lifecycle. A good design pattern can help make changes easy. MVC, an acronym for Model - View - Controller, is becoming THE recommended model for designing frameworks - especially on the Web. This webinar will give an overview of design patterns in general, and in particular, MVC.
Ulrich Krause shows how to use the MVC design paradigm in an XPages application and demonstrate how easy it is to implement changes. Need to read/write your data from/to an XML file instead of using a Notes View? MVC makes software maintenance as easy as 1-2-3!
BONUS! During this webinar, Pete Janzen, IBM Product Manager, provides a short update about what's new and upcoming from IBM for XPages and Domino application development.
Innovate 2014: Get an A+ on Testing Your Enterprise Applications with Rationa...Teodoro Cipresso
Today's exam: what's the difference between continuous testing of distributed apps and enterprise apps? If you're on the distributed side, you typically maintain suites of self-checking unit tests. Successful execution of these test suites gives you confidence in your code as you make fixes and deliver enhancements. If you're on the enterprise side (okay: mainframe), you have to factor in CPU time and try to minimize that. Minimize and continuous, however, are near contradictions. The IBM Rational Development and Test Environment for System z can change that. It provides an emulated z/OS environment on Intel or Intel compatible hardware, making continuous test of enterprise apps easy and affordable.
The document discusses the benefits of virtualization for independent software vendors (ISVs). It outlines how virtualization can help ISVs reduce testing time, more easily update applications, achieve multi-tenancy, and develop locally to test at scale in the cloud. However, virtualization may also pose challenges for ISVs around expertise, licensing, code standards, and supporting various customer virtualization solutions. The document recommends ISVs talk to customers to understand virtualization uses, plan pilot applications, learn more at Microsoft resources, and determine how Microsoft virtualization could benefit them.

Is a Monolith Standing in the Way of Your Digital Transformation? Refactor fo...DevOps.com
Monolithic applications are defined as single-tiered software in which the user interface and data access code is combined into a single application for a single platform. Monoliths can impact your ability to create APIs, deliver capability quickly, and even perform routine application maintenance. Refactoring is the antidote to monolithic software. It can result in improved team agility and autonomy, plus it paves the way for API creation. Learn how DevOps for the Enterprise software can help you refactor- from discovery of your z/OS assets and impact analysis, to the modularization task itself, including editing, compiling, testing, and debugging.

We live in an increasingly social world, where advancements in
technology are changing how we buy, how we work and how
we connect with others. Expanding and overlapping social
networks are enabling individuals to express opinions, share
expertise with a greater audience and shape decision-making
processes on a global scale. Can an organization that chooses
to ignore the insights of employees, customers and business
partners expect to thrive?
Mobile technology is fueling economic growth in Africa, with annual GDP growth averaging 7% over the next 20 years. Nearly 90% of phones in Africa are mobile, and there will be 735 million mobile subscribers by 2012. Mobile money transfers in Africa are expected to exceed $200 billion in 2015, accounting for 18% of the continent's GDP. Bharti Airtel is working with IBM to deliver next-generation mobile services across 16 African countries, providing not just voice and data but digital services through a smarter mobile infrastructure. This is helping to improve communication, empower farmers and businesses, and make banking more accessible, connecting people to health information as well.
The document discusses using social media to build a company by creating a blog and using sites like Twitter to raise awareness as an opinion leader with knowledge. It recommends sites like Digg, Reddit, Newsvine and YouTube to place content and build traffic, and suggests monitoring Technorati and comments on those sites to understand public opinions on products. Finally, it proposes using networking tools like LinkedIn and Facebook to create business opportunities and find new employees.
This document provides a summary of major social media sites in 2011 and how they can be leveraged by companies for customer communication, brand exposure, traffic generation, and search engine optimization. Each site is rated as good, okay, or bad for these categories. Sites summarized include Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, LinkedIn, YouTube, Digg, and StumbleUpon.
McKinsey\'s fifth annual survey on the way organisations use social tools and technologies finds that they continue to seep into many organisations, transforming business processes and raising perforamnce.
Why are you paying for wasted energy in IT?
Energy costs continue to climb and yet up to a third of the money that companies spend on power could be wasted(1) owing to inefficient IT infrastructure. Power demands are predicted to outstrip supply in the next few years, so those costs won’t comedown. Energy regulations and carbon reduction targets are adding to the pressure. So why aren’t you taking a serious look at your IT energy use?
The document summarizes the findings of a survey of 110 cloud computing implementation projects conducted by IBM. Key findings include:
1) Primary motivations for cloud implementations were IT efficiencies, ease of use consumer interfaces, and new charging models, while security concerns, pricing strategies, complexity, lack of standardization, and unclear value propositions were biggest inhibitors.
2) Integrated vendor offerings and ongoing support were in high demand. Service design was the most important ITIL discipline.
3) Current cloud usage focused on development/test and non-critical workloads, but respondents expected to deploy clouds across all workloads in two years. There was a 30/70 split between public and private clouds currently.
This white paper discusses how cloud computing can drive value for enterprises by lowering IT costs and enabling innovation. Some key points:
1) Cloud computing provides on-demand, scalable access to computing resources and enables a pay-per-use model that can significantly lower both capital and operating costs for IT compared to maintaining physical infrastructure.
2) Standardizing applications and infrastructure on cloud platforms further drives down costs through improved efficiency and reduced complexity.
3) In addition to cost savings, cloud also allows organizations to innovate faster, access new markets more easily, and optimize existing IT investments through an elastic, globally available environment.
The document summarizes the key findings of IBM's 2011 Global CMO Study, which involved interviews with over 1,700 CMOs from around the world. The study found that CMOs see four main challenges facing marketing: the explosion of data, social media, proliferation of new channels and devices, and shifting demographics. However, CMOs from high-performing companies address these challenges differently than others by focusing on customer intimacy, mining new digital data sources, and fostering relationships over just transactions. They also aim to develop a clear corporate character for their organization.
The document discusses opportunities for IT organizations to optimize their datacenter services over the next five years. As businesses look to grow and innovate following the economic downturn, IT will need to balance efficiency gains with flexibility to enable new initiatives. Datacenters of the future will require automation and standardized infrastructure that can adapt to changing workload demands. Many IT organizations currently lack the in-house expertise to implement private clouds and achieve this level of optimization, and may require external assistance to successfully transform their datacenters.
The document summarizes findings from a study of over 3,000 CIOs across 71 countries and 18 industries. It identifies four distinct "CIO Mandates" that CIOs operate under based on their organization's business needs and goals. The mandates are Expand, Leverage, Transform, and Pioneer. The summary describes the typical responsibilities and focus areas for CIOs working under each mandate. It also provides examples of initiatives and priorities for CIOs depending on their assigned mandate.
