This document summarizes PPG's implementation of a Dynamic Reference Master (DRM) solution to automate the maintenance of their financial hierarchies and attributes.
Key points:
- PPG implemented a phased approach, initially focusing on automating the maintenance of their complex financial hierarchies and attributes in Hyperion Essbase using a DRM from Edgewater Ranzal.
- This automation saved them over 17 hours per month in manual maintenance time which could then be reallocated.
- Future plans include expanding the DRM to also maintain product and customer hierarchies and attributes to support operational planning and reporting.
Informix warehouse and accelerator overviewKeshav Murthy
This document provides an overview of Informix Warehouse and Informix Warehouse Accelerator.

Business Demands Vs Unchecked Standards And RecommendationsArturo Saavedra
The document discusses analyzing business demands versus unchecked global standards and procedural recommendations. It notes there is currently not enough granularity in global standards, a lack of input from business units, and little flexibility. It then recommends establishing standards and processes based on assessments of each business unit's unique requirements, operational needs, and financial implications. It provides an example of how an unchecked global standard requiring external storage solutions for servers unnecessarily increased costs by millions. The document stresses the need for careful analysis of global standards and their effects on each business unit to avoid inefficiencies and ensure alignment with business drivers.

The assessment notes the importance of access management, report layout, and hands-on learning for successful adoption of the new BI tools.
Here are the key steps to enable ad-hoc reporting with relational data using a BusinessObjects universe:
1. Create a BusinessObjects universe that defines the logical data model and relationships between tables/views in the underlying database (e.g. SAP Sybase IQ).
2. Map the universe objects (e.g. tables, columns) to the physical database tables and columns.
3. Define joins, filters and calculations in the universe that simplify querying for business users.
4. Deploy the universe to the BI platform (e.g. SAP BusinessObjects BI 4.1).
5. Business users can then access the universe objects through BI tools like Web Intelligence, Crystal Reports to

Unlocking Productivity: Leveraging the Potential of Copilot in Microsoft 365, a presentation by Christoforos Vlachos, Senior Solutions Manager – Modern Workplace, Uni Systems
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
