In a globalized 21st century the challenges presented to an enterprise and enterprise software technology firms today are extremely testing. We are entering an era of new realities of complex cloud platforms. It is becoming critical to decide core from context and decide on the right approach to build cloud platforms.
We at Zinnov, have been closely following the technology space and have invested multiple years to track this shift in business practices and processes.
To explore and understand more on this ever evolving “ Building next generation cloud platforms-deciding core vs. context” , we at Zinnov are hosting a webinar covering the following themes
· Cloud and Mobile first Product Development Lifecycle
· Deciding core vs. context in development of cloud platforms.
· Deciding on outsourcing of end of life products.

The pandemic has unlocked a ‘bold’ new mindset in leaders across the globe. Having not just survived but thrived in what could be called one of the most disruptive two years in recent times, leaders are now more ready than ever to unlock new paradigms of talent, technology, and operating models for their businesses. However, in a post-pandemic world, when every company has tasted the power of digital – the growth wars are going to become even more intense.

Inclusion And Diversity Maturity Benchmark – Creating An Inclusive Workplace ...Zinnov
What is the value of Inclusion and Diversity (I&D) for the C-suite, employees, and job seekers? This question is not always easy to answer, as there are several factors to consider, such as our personal experience, ecosystem awareness, and management approach, to name a few. Interestingly, COVID-19 has broadened the scope of I&D, from just being women-, LGBTQ+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer)-, and PwD (Persons with Disability)-friendly, to being considerate of other minority groups, including individuals dealing with bereavement, caregivers to family members, sole bread earners, etc.
There are several visible gaps observed when developing an enterprise-level I&D plan, most of which lack contextual and personal dimensions. Mastering such issues can be a challenge but can also be incredibly rewarding. It is about taking that crucial first step.
This latest Zinnov’s marquee report on ‘Creating an Inclusive Workplace’ touches upon these aspects and more, by delving deep into the factors that help organizations create workplaces that are not just inclusive, but diverse and empathetic as well. The report aims to help accelerate a mindset shift at an organizational level by empowering leaders to make informed decisions with I&D at the core of long-term business strategy.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Revenue Opportunity indicates how well
a team is able to identify and fill a need
within a chosen market.
Operating Efficiency reflects how well the
team is able to turn demand for its products
and services into profits and value
Risk Control and Expectation

• All cost categories
• Anything that reduces the
amount of money tied up in
the assets needed to run the
business, or allows those
assets to be better utilized
• Anything that enhances the
team’s ability to lead, plan,
manage, execute its stated
strategies
• Anything that demonstrates
the team’s ability to control
risk
Asset Productivity reflects how well a
team is able to turn invested resources
(talent, real estate, cash, etc..) into
profits and value.

Actual Value
Contribution
The actual value contribution of a center to the parent will be arrived at by adding together the contributions from
individual BUs / Support functions.=
Actual Value Contribution
Value contribution is a function of each business unit’s maturity and the target they
achieve on the identified metrics
BU Unit Value
Contribution =
BU Unit value contribution will be calculated separately for each BU and support function. It takes into account
the enterprise values of all levers, avg. salary proportion, targets achieved, maturity score.
Value contribution
Value contribution of a center to the global parent quantitatively articulates the value
generated by a center and contributed to the parent, thus, helps in driving strategic
investments for that center

Key Facts
• The Shareholder Value = f(Revenue, Operating Efficiency, Asset Productivity, Risk
Control and Expectation Management)
Key ratios
• Headcount ratio (h) = Total number of people in centre ‘X’ / Total number of
employees
Centre ‘X’ Potential Value Contribution
*Note: Potential contribution on each of the lever is arrived at by distributing equally the remainder of potential enterprise value less potential revenue contribution across Operating
Efficiency, Asset Efficiency, Expectations

Change in Maturity(m) gives more value
• The Value Curve equation: Vx = (Rx, metrics contribution + Ox, metrics contribution + Ax, metrics contribution + Ex, metrics contribution ) * m2
OR
• Vx = a * m2 (Keeping the targets achieved on the metrics constant)
• Instantaneous rate of change of Vx is 2*a*m

• Value contribution curve is not linear
and rises rapidly with changes in
maturity levels
• Incremental changes in maturity at
higher levels of maturity gives higher
incremental gains in value
• Hence the value curve is a parabola
