Track Keynote for the Enterprise Modernization Track at the IBM Rational Software Conference 2009
Everyone is well aware that we are in tough economic times right now. However, these difficult times also present opportunities for companies that can quickly adapt to these changing conditions. When you look at what inhibits companies from being as agile as they would like, IT is often cited as a problem area. While there can be many root causes, among the most important are (1) a reliance on fragile legacy applications about which companies have a limited understanding, (2) development staff that are not sufficiently productive, and (3) disconnected team infrastructures that inhibit collaboration and traceability. These problems limit your organization's flexibility. They are costing you money. And they tie up resources that could otherwise focus on new business to bring in more revenue. This track will showcase IBM Rational's Enterprise Modernization solutions that enable organizations to: reduce project risk by managing and extracting value from their application portfolio, exploit new technologies to deliver more flexible business solutions, empower new and existing IT staff to build multi-platform applications, increase productivity with a modern software delivery platform, and improve development efficiency and collaboration by unifying multiple teams.

How IBM is helping developers win the race to innovate with next-gen cloud se...Michael Elder
In the race to transform, enterprises employ cloud to deliver innovation and stay ahead of the competition. New services are built natively on cloud, but what about the 80% of enterprise applications that have not yet moved to the cloud.
In this session, we'll answer these questions: How do I integrate next-gen technology like Blockchain, Watson IoT, and Data &AI into my new applications? How do I make multicloud an advantage instead of adding new complexity?
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.
