In this session, VMware explains how they:
• Accelerated the buyer’s journey with Adobe Marketing Cloud solutions
• Filled their sales pipeline by personalizing inbound marketing campaigns
• Gained insights into customer segments using automated personalization
• Increased SaaS sales through testing and optimization

How to develop new business models for digital retail in a fast moving world. commercetools is the leading and most modern commerce platform on the market when it comes to new channels, agility and performance.

Many of the UK’s biggest brands understand that accessible websites and apps are good for business, but too many people treat it as a bolt-on – As well as facing legal threats organisations could be missing out on a market that is estimated at £250bn.
In this recent webinar participants heard from AbilityNet, our Accessibility Partner, as they laid out the business case for making sure that your website and apps can be used by every customer.
The session was delivered by Robin Christopherson MBE, who has been a global expert in accessibility for 20 years and regularly speaks at international tech events. He used examples to show how inclusive design can boost revenue, deliver financial savings, improve your brand and reduce legal risks. He’ll also explained how accessible apps and websites can improve the experience for every single one of your mobile users – whether they have a disability or not. He was also joined by his colleague Mark Walker. Mark AbilityNet’s Head of Marketing and Communications and has been involved in digital inclusion for 25 years.
The webinar consists of a 30-minute presentation followed by a 20 minute interactive Q&A.

Priming Your Enterprise for Digital TransformationWSO2
The role of digital technology is rapidly shifting, from being a driver of marginal efficiency to an enabler of fundamental innovation and disruption, according to a white paper on digital enterprises by the World Economic Forum. The digital economy has changed the world of business, levelling the playground for newer entrants to compete head on with larger traditional enterprises.
In order to be competitive in today’s digital economy, organizations need to take steps to become digitally mature. This can be done both through internal and external digital innovations and transformations including
Transforming existing legacy systems via an integration layer
Building a macro or micro-services layer coupled with leaner devops for faster time-to-market
Enabling API driven stakeholder-inclusive businesses
Identifying new business insights via analytics
Why is a digital workplace important for your business and your work?
How does WordPress fit into a digital workplace platform?

Why It's Time for an Experience-Led Commerce StrategyAcquia
We’ve all become digital natives: from millennials to boomers, we’re all evermore tied to our connected devices. And, as a result, the customer journey has radically changed. Today’s consumer expects a consistent brand experience across all channels and devices. Thus, the competitive bar is continually being raised to outperform the market and attain higher conversion rates while continually meeting - and hopefully even exceeding - consumer expectations.
In the early days of eCommerce, the commerce platform was more than sufficient for the customer journey. eCommerce has now become the main growth channel for retailers and brands alike. In today’s complex world of omnichannel shopping, a stronger and more engaging experience that integrates content into the shopping journey is no longer an option - it’s a requirement. The best commerce experiences come from pulling together expertise across three essential dimensions: back-end commerce, front-end experience management, and user experience strategy.
Join us and hear how Acquia, commercetools, and Born Group bring their specific areas of expertise together, and hear how Moda Operandi has seen real value from the marriage of content and commerce. In this webinar, you’ll hear:
Why experience-led commerce is the future and why many brands are doing it
How to have enterprise commerce without the enterprise complexity and price tag
A success story from Moda Operandi discussing how they’ve integrated content and commerce and the value they’ve seen in it
Born Group will bring their deep knowledge of user experience to guide the conversation from a consumer's perspective. Register today and learn the value that content and commerce can bring to your business.

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.
