Tag Management : A Key Component of an International Digital StrategyEnsighten
Presented by Romain Stievenard, Digital Innovation, France Médias Monde
France Médias Monde is the group in charge of French international broadcasting services and comprises: RFI (the international radio station), France 24 (the trilingual news TV channel) and Monte Carlo Doualiya (the Arabic-language radio station). From Paris, they broadcast in 14 languages on five continents and offer digital content for a large variety of devices in order to fit viewers’ needs and preferences (desktop, smartphone, tablet, podcasts, content aggregators, tv/radio platforms, social networks, etc.). Since 2016, the group also publishes the French-speaking version of Mashable with France 24. Managing such complex digital environment requires a real control tower at the heart of the organization in order to keep a global overview of the ecosystem and maintain consistent tagging while also allowing for local specificities such as languages or partnerships. Audience monetization and performance are keys to the success of France Médias Monde brands. They require partnerships and optimizations specific to each region in order to develop Ad revenues and improve loading times.
Romain Stievenard, Digital Innovation Manager at France Médias Monde, will explain how the group is using Ensighten Manage in order to deploy a consistent tagging on a complex set of digital contents. He will also explain how Ensighten can be used to manage local partnerships with geographic constraints.

Mobile Apps: No Longer a Black Box of Digital MeasurementEnsighten

Marie-Pierre Dery, Manager, Measurement Solutions and Data Governance, TD Bank
Since the dawn of the Internet, digital marketers have been a notoriously analytics focused bunch. But when it comes to mobile apps, most marketers are unable to work their powers of digital insight. In fact, 57 percent of business professionals say they use no analytics whatsoever to measure their mobile apps, according to a recent Forrester survey. So what are the challenges and how can brands overcome this measurement gap? Learn how Stratigent is using Ensighten Mobile to simplify mobile app analytics for major brands, enabling better optimization, deeper customer engagement and improved ROI.
Tag Management: The Glue that Brings IT and Marketing TogetherEnsighten
(Keith Ashorn, Software Engineer, HomeAway and Ryan Burke, Software Engineer, HomeAway) Who should own tag deployments, marketing or IT? Before tag management systems were invented, that manual task fell squarely IT shoulders, as it sometimes required extensive software coding. The rise of tag management gave marketers more control over their mission critical solutions, freeing already overburdened IT resources. But at HomeAway, IT still remains in control of tag deployment via a unique process that treats tags like production code and brings all stakeholders into the process. This ensures complete data integrity and governance, while still providing maximum marketing agility. Learn the pros and cons of this approach, and learn how you can better align tagging resources in your organization to be more efficient and drive the best customer experiences possible.

Marketers can learn from software developers to harness—rather than struggle against—the dynamics of a digital world.
Scott Brinker says of Hacking Marketing, “My goal was to help marketers at all levels—even those with no technical background or inclination—adapt marketing management to the wild and wonderful whirlwind of a world now dominated by software.”
“When you realize that marketers are now paddling water up to their chins in websites (software), analytics (software), social media (software), marketing automation (software), interactive content (software), mobile apps (software), and so on, it starts to seem obvious. Software has eaten the world—and marketing too.”
“To effectively harness the digital forces of software, we must not only innovate what we produce in marketing, but innovate how we produce it too.”
“It’s time to rethink marketing management for a software-powered world.”

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.

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.

Insight shared here will also be useful for those of you considering a move to Magento 2 from a different platform altogether
Magento 1 is heading into end of life, so no improvements will be made to the platform and support will slowly decline
That’s why now is the time to start making decisions about your next steps

Head here for an accompanying post on migrating to Magento 2: http://invi.qa/2yrvJkn
Before we get into the meat of the presentation, it’s worth noting that Magento has recently renamed its products
To avoid any confusion, note that: Magento Enterprise is now referred to as ‘Magento Commerce’; Magento Community Edition has renamed into Magento Open Source; and Magento Cloud is now part of the Magento Commerce suite
Magento 2 is a significant set-up from Magento 1 and offers superior usability and performance
Key features include a new backend admin panel, enhanced UX for admin users, a better native frontend, more native features, and improved B2B functionality
Moving from Magento 1 to Magento 2 is not a straightforward upgrade and has more in common with a replatforming project than an upgrade
It’s important to understand that an M1-M2 ‘migration’ is essentially a re-build project
Magento 2 is very different to Magento 1 versions, which means custom work on your current site will need to be reproduced for the new store (as opposed to just being moved over)
For in-house Magento developers, getting to grips with Magento 2 is quite a leap. Magento 2 offers a much more modern codebase, and if you’re familiar with Magento 1, you’ll need to change your dev approach
As with any digital investment, the success of your project will come down to careful planning and assessment of your business requirements
We recommend that this is conducted as part of a detailed Discovery process
So yes, you are going to re-build your site from scratch
But FEAR NOT...
There are great advantages to sticking with Magento as opposed to choosing a whole new platform
And there are a lot of things that will make the re-build a lot easier:
The Magento 2 platform still feels much like Magento 1 and has lots of admin improvements, so you won’t have to re-learn it
Magento 2 offers a lot more out-of-the-box functionality, including B2B
Magento’s Data Migration Tool simplifies the task of transferring data and checking its consistency to a new Magento 2 site
Ensure you have strong business case before you do anything
Define clear business goal
We always recommend that you release light and release early
Resist temptation to add too many features in the first release
You will learn more about your platform once live
Capture real feedback and analytics
Retain budget to innovate and strengthen post go-live
Make informed decisions and base choices on data, not assumptions
Take a ‘minimum viable product’ (MVP) approach; ‘users have got used to X functionality’ is not reason enough to keep a feature
Approaching your Magento 2 migration as a straight port of your Magento 1 platform’s features to the new platform may seem like a lower-risk option
But it’s easy to make incorrect assumptions about how things work; you may not know or recall why something was built in the first place, for example
There’s a risk then of spending budget building things that don’t add business value
So recreating your old system is not benefiting from the new
If mimicking a feature on your old site doesn’t give you a genuine, measurable advantage over your competitors, it may be better to adapt that feature to work in the context of your new platform, saving budget, and enabling you to innovate in other areas
It’s better to think in terms of the key business processes and business value you want to bring to the new platform
An ecommerce upgrade is great opportunity to strip out obsolete code and unused features, so see this as an opportunity to ‘clean up’
A big issue for merchants looking to move their Magento 1 store to Magento 2 is the cost associated with replicating existing functionality when there aren’t equivalent Magento 2 extensions – things like gateway and checkout extensions
Their reasoning for duplicating this functionality is often just because it was there before and customers are used to it, but can add significant cost to the project
Review which bits of functionality are actually needed. Chances are you have some functionality that isn’t used enough to justify spending budget on upgrading extensions, or carrying out work to ensure compatibility. The more that can be dropped, the less there might be to upgrade, which means lower costs
Conduct thorough data and user analysis on your current site to check the usage of your bespoke functionality
Be strict, and don’t migrate / re-develop unused functionality
Review existing business processes and take the opportunity for change if required
Your requirement may be partly matched by a native feature
Customising features can be costly, so can you compromise on your requirement? Can you still get value without customising a feature?
In some cases you need to customise or add functionality to provide value to your business / store
What’s the best way to identify requirements?
Do an analytics deep dive
Get customer feedback
Validate use of the site
Which features earn you the most revenue?
Which processes incur the most costs?
How many customer actually use your wish-list, my account, order history?
Which pages are most visited?
How is search used?
MoSCoW (Must have, Should have, Could have, Won’t have) is reductive nature and tends to formalise expectations early in delivery meaning, so it’s best used carefully
When planning a platform migration, building a user story map can be a highly effective way of capturing the high-level needs of a platform while tying those needs into value for users of the system. At its simplest form it’s about identifying specific user goals from which you derive activities, tasks, and user stories that deliver on that goal
As they’re collaborative in nature, and often cut across departments and business functions, they are a more effective way of creating a shared understanding of what needs to be delivered by the migration.
They enable you to understand what the minimum, go-live version of your new platform looks like, allowing you to use this to plan releases
Minimise spend on commodity features:
Features that a user expects to be there
Features that do not provide differentiation
Features that do not give you a competitive advantage
Do them as cheaply as possible or not at all
A commodity feature for one business CAN be a differentiator for you (e.g. store locator)
Now you have captured the needs of the system there are decisions to make as to how the business value is best delivered
At each point on the map you should ask:
Does M2 deliver this value without customisation? Is functionality included?
If not, can you adapt your business processes to work in the way that’s required by Magento 2?
If not, and customisation is required, does the return for that feature justify the investment?
Ask these question to minimise the amount of customisation needed to implement what are often commodity features. Your business should be looking for the cheapest and easiest ways of delivering the value, rather than the feature
Risk mitigation is one of the most important things in an ecommerce replatform project
Your ecommerce system touches business-critical systems; many business processes will be baked into the platform, and it’s often the main customer touchpoints
Done incorrectly, your ecommerce replatform can escalate in costs
Beware of scope creep through design, especially when working with third parties
Implied functionality through PSD
Rich interfaces = manual process
Remember that the business will have many years to refine the UX, but you only get one chance to re-platform
Do you need Pixel perfection?
Think about driving quality where it counts
The style guide > The PSD
Avoid subjective ‘defects’ and changes
Use data and analytics post launch to make UX decisions
Have a plan for data migration
What needs migrating?
Historical orders
Addresses
Profiles
Passwords
URL structure
Content (articles)
Products
Take advantage of Magento’s data migration tool for Magento 1 to Magento 2
Get a handle on migration early as possible; all migrations will be different from each other
Do delta migration closer to go-live to get latest data
Ensure you test through-out and don’t leave to last minute
Quality assurance (QA) testing time must also be factored in to ensure all main user journeys (customers and admin users) are not negatively impacted by upgrade work. Testing is a huge part of a replatforming project and needs to be planned and factored into every stage
Ongoing testing throughout build
User journey testing / regression testing; user acceptance testing
You have limited budget, resources, and energy to invest in your ecommerce migration, but ensure you leave enough to invest in innovation once the new site is live
The Kano model, developed in the 1980s by Noriaki Kano, provides a useful way to view migration projects
It highlights the difference between basic ‘cost of entry’ features and those that ‘excite’ or ‘delight’ end users
To take full advantage of a platform migration we should minimise the effort spent on non-differentiating features while retaining enough budget to experiment and innovate in areas that will genuinely differentiate you from their competitors
