Improving Quality and Adoption: EIM SQL Server 2012Perficient, Inc.
As your organization matures in its understanding of the value of BI and data as a strategic asset, it's only natural it will demand more from its BI platform.
Use this growing maturity as an opportunity to introduce the concept of Enterprise Information Management (EIM) to the organization. The concept may seem foreign to some, but when examined within the context of improving the quality of the information, which ultimately leads to better adoption of the BI platform, the benefits are compelling.
Join Perficient as we explore the technologies that will introduce the EIM concept to your organization, namely Master Data Services (MDS) and Data Quality Services (DQS). We'll even see these technologies in a live demo.
Presenter Duane Schafer leads Perficient's national Microsoft business intelligence practice. He has more than 16 years of experience providing guidance and thought leadership in the areas of Enterprise Information Management, Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing.

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:

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.

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.
