Presentation on the Nintex platform done during the SharePoint Saturday in Nairobi #SPSNairobi. Nintex can be integrated with SharePoint to deliver amazing experiences for Business Users with no code, using Nintex workflows and Nintex forms.
With the growing number of DITA tools in the marketplace, one would think that it would be easy to justify using one of them to create and publish technical documents. By now, most managers have been exposed to the benefits of creating technical documentation according to some agreed upon set of documentation rules using DITA. However, understanding the benefits of this technical approach and being able to justify the expense of implementing it are two different things.
Many technical documentation managers are not able to articulate the long-term advantages of converting product information repositories to DITA in order to build a suitable business case to get such a project approved. This presentation outlines the many cost savings and revenue generation opportunities created by managing product information directly in DITA.

The Future of IT Infrastructure is Hybrid and on DemandCodero
The rise of IT as Service (ITaaS) is result of the intense rate of change brought about by technologies such as cloud computing, social media, consumerization, mobility, analytics and big data. The pace of change is only increasing, and these emerging technologies need to be rapidly integrated into modern enterprise, almost in real-time. Enter ITaaS, on-demand. In its various forms, ITaaS on-demand solves the myriad problems of modern IT resource consumption. When technology is restructured to be flexible, fast and ready, capabilities are provided based on usage. Transitioning to an on-demand hybrid infrastructure is a complete transformation that can support your future business goals, help fuel business innovation and turn IT from a cost center to a value center. This is the future of IT, it will be hybrid, and it will be on-demand with utmost flexibility, scalability and cost-efficiency.

This has meant a fresh look at security accreditation and adoption of COTS applications that can be deployed in minutes and not months or sometimes years. Cloud collaboration services, that have the correct security credentials, have become very popular and John will provide case study examples and best practice advice as to how public and private sector organisations have introduced new and effective collaborative ways of working.

Insurers are in a constant race to stay ahead of the competition, find ways to reduce costs, and still increase throughput while keeping customers happy. While it may seem like a daunting task to do more with less, it is possible if you leverage the right technologies.
Two leading technologies are the Insurance Document Automation Solution from Zia Consulting and VirtualViewer® HTML5 from Snowbound. When combined, they provide what you need to cross the finish line ahead of the rest.
Join us for this presentation to discover how to:
-Expedite your claims processing with streamlined collaboration – Users can open multiple documents in one tabbed window, compare documents side by side with a split screen, split and merge documents, and leverage XML-based annotations and true secure redactions.
-Ensure remote access to claims – Empower external and internal users—including agents, call center representatives, adjusters, and underwriters—to review and process claims from any location and on any device with a web browser (mobile, tablet, etc.) without needing to download additional applications.
-Immediately view only the content you need – Unique Page On Demand technology eliminates the need for users to wait for entire documents to download or stream so the content you need to review opens in seconds.
-Enhance automated compliance and archiving efforts – Meeting compliance demands can be complicated by policy changes or claims that are introduced over the life of the policy—changes that can be hard to track. Reduce the risk of non-compliance and provide on-demand, universal access to critical content and audit trails of document workflows.

Foundational Strategies for Trust in Big Data Part 1: Getting Data to the Pla...Precisely
Teams working on new business initiatives, whether for enhancing customer engagement, creating new value, or addressing compliance considerations, know that a successful strategy starts with the synchronization of operational and reporting data from across the organization into a centralized repository for use in advanced analytics and other projects. However, the range and complexity of data sources as well as the lack of specialized skills needed to extract data from critical legacy systems often causes inefficiencies and gaps in the data being used by the business.
The first part of our webcast series on Foundation Strategies for Trust in Big Data provides insight into how Syncsort Connect with its design once, deploy anywhere approach supports a repeatable pattern for data integration by enabling enterprise architects and developers to ensure data from ALL enterprise data sources– from mainframe to cloud – is available in the downstream data lakes for use in these key business initiatives.
ADV Slides: What Happened of Note in 1H 2020 in Enterprise Advanced AnalyticsDATAVERSITY

When it comes to the cloud, Gartner may have said it best:
“By 2020, a corporate ‘no-cloud’ policy will be as rare as a corporate ‘no-internet’ policy is today.”
If your organization is still skeptical of the cloud, now is the time to take a closer look. Faster implementation timelines and reduced maintenance costs are just two reasons why the cloud is becoming the standard across all industries.
In our webinar, we dispelled common concerns and explored the benefits of operating in the cloud. We also provided real-world examples of companies that have taken the leap and discovered just how much better business works in the cloud.
As government agencies continue to advance their digital transformation and improve the citizen digital experience, they are moving to new platforms. A successful digital transformation, and continued compliance with federal technology update mandates, such as Cloud First and the Modernizing Government Technology Act, involves embracing multiple cloud platforms. This has a ripple effect of streamlining agency operations and presenting a new and updated digital experience for citizens.
Our government agency speaker will outline how one agency moved operations to the cloud and the lessons they learned along the way.
During today’s webcast, you will learn:
- How cloud platforms can help improve the citizen digital experience
- How to architect a multi-cloud platform that makes sense for your agency
- Lessons learned by other government agencies and from private sector companies
Navigating Cloud Trends in 2024 Webinar DeckPrecisely
According to Gartner, “85% of organizations will embrace a cloud-first principle by 2025”, and as customers expectations become more demanding, understanding the intricacies of cloud migration and modernization is crucial. However, cloud migration and modernization projects do not always go according to plan and understanding essential trends can guide you through potential pitfalls. From the evolution of multi-cloud strategies to the surging influence of AI and automation, our experts will unravel key insights, enabling organizations to harness the power of cloud computing for unprecedented success and operational efficiency.
Join this session to learn actionable insights around moving to the cloud in 2024 and empower your organization for success in the cloud-first era!

Wireless communication involves the transmission of information over a distance without the help of wires, cables or any other forms of electrical conductors.
Wireless communication is a broad term that incorporates all procedures and forms of connecting and communicating between two or more devices using a wireless signal through wireless communication technologies and devices.
Features of Wireless Communication
The evolution of wireless technology has brought many advancements with its effective features.
The transmitted distance can be anywhere between a few meters (for example, a television's remote control) and thousands of kilometers (for example, radio communication).
Wireless communication can be used for cellular telephony, wireless access to the internet, wireless home networking, and so on.
