Redmond Magazine webinar from 5-20-2015 with myself and Ben Henderson from Colligo.
Abstract: With almost two decades of experience building out and supporting intranets, employee portals, and document collaboration platforms, the industry is quickly moving toward cloud-first and mobile-first solutions. With that shift, keeping end users engaged and productive has become an imperative. As organizations struggle to move from centralized on prem solutions to this new paradigm, three universal truths come to the surface in every successful deployment:
--The user experience (UX) should be central to everything you do
--Telemetry & metrics need to be in place at the beginning & fine-tuned along the way
--Mobility must move beyond just responsive design & enhance productivity
In this webinar, Office 365 MVP and globally-recognized collaboration and social technology expert Christian Buckley will talk with Colligo Product Manager Ben Henderson about the future of mobility, the expanded vision of team and document collaboration, and the value of a productivity focus. They will share valuable insights and real-world examples of how you can incorporate these universal truths into your SharePoint strategy.

In 2016, cloud technologies went mainstream. But with maturity came the realization that moving to the cloud doesn’t happen overnight. CIOs are prioritizing hosted computing and cloud data storage. But they’re approaching the shift as a gradual, multi-year journey.
Many startups and small businesses will continue to go all-in on cloud. But enterprises will find success in a slow but steady move from on-prem. Hybrid ecosystems—of data, software, and infrastructure—will be the reality for most established organizations.
As this shift to cloud progresses where are things are headed? This paper highlights the top cloud trends for 2017.
The Connected world evolves and more elements of our analogue world and being connected to our digital world. WE all need to understand this mega-trend and the drivers for IoT in 2017 and beyond
Researching How Cloud Computing Enhances the Businesses GrowthAJASTJournal
The Internet of Things (IoT) changes several sectors, including education, logistics, and manufacturing. The IoT is a web-based system that integrates and syncs a wide range of machines or appliances with gates, third-party technologies, and apps on machinery and cloud computing networks. Cloud computing performs a significant part in the framework layer with the thriving development of IoT. In a range of industries cloud computing technology was built into unique forms of cloud computing: Everything-as-a-Sevice (Xaas), Education-as-a-Service (EaaS), Logistics-as-a-Service (LaaS), and Manufacturing-as-a-Service (MaaS). Researchers and professionals have drawn substantial attention to the applicability of cloud computing in different sectors. Essential evaluation, framework architecture, and structural study are the primary forms of science. Large data, computational technology, service orientation, and IoT refer to cloud computing systems (e.g., XaaS, EaaS, LaaS, MaaS). This research analyzed the technological patterns in new cloud computing technology and examined cloud computing studies. The results demonstrate that knowledge and innovation are the main concerns guiding cloud science.
Edge computing is redefining the cloud computing space. The growing de-emphasis on the cloud’s role in connected environments is expected to lead to smarter and faster autonomous solutions that have the potential to reshape the IoT landscape. Edge computing will transform the IoT landscape into a hyperconnected environment where the restrictions related to latency and computation capacity will be eliminated. Many companies are transforming their business models to attain edge computing capabilities necessary for offering end to end services.
The recent years have witnessed a number of mergers and acquisitions in the edge computing space for IoT services, with the increase in M&A activities representing the industry’s conundrum of cloud, edge, and hybrid architectures, and the race to achieve a considerable market share.
This report includes an analysis of approximately 60 deals, along with a detailed technology overview and the purpose of the acquisitions. The M&A analysis section offers a comprehensive view of the transactions around edge computing, covering different technology aspects including data center, AI, security, software-defined WAN (SD-WAN), analytics, interoperability, multi-access edge computing (MEC), and others.

13. Future of Big Data
Introduction
• Big Data may well be the Next Big Thing in the IT
world.
• Big data burst upon the scene in the first decade of the
21st century.
• The first organizations to embrace it were online and
startup firms. Firms like Google, eBay, LinkedIn, and
Facebook were built around big data from the
beginning.
• Like many new information technologies, big data can
bring about dramatic cost reductions, substantial
improvements in the time required to perform a
computing task, or new product and service offerings.
• ‘Big Data’ is similar to ‘small data’, but bigger in
size
• but having data bigger it requires different
approaches:
– Techniques, tools and architecture
• an aim to solve new problems or old problems in a
better way
• Big Data generates value from the storage and
processing of very large quantities of digital
information that cannot be analyzed with
traditional computing techniques.
What is BIG DATA?
What is BIG DATA
• Walmart handles more than 1 million customer
transactions every hour.
• Facebook handles 40 billion photos from its user base.
• Decoding the human genome originally took 10years to
process; now it can be achieved in one week.
Three Characteristics of Big Data V3s
Volume
• Data
quantity
Velocity
• Data
Speed
Variety
• Data
Types
1st Character of Big Data
Volume
•A typical PC might have had 10 gigabytes of storage in 2000.
•Today, Facebook ingests 500 terabytes of new data every day.
•Boeing 737 will generate 240 terabytes of flight data during a single
flight across the US.
• The smart phones, the data they create and consume; sensors
embedded into everyday objects will soon result in billions of new,
constantly-updated data feeds containing environmental, location,
and other information, including video.
2nd Character of Big Data
Velocity
• Clickstreams and ad impressions capture user behavior at
millions of events per second
• high-frequency stock trading algorithms reflect market
changes within microseconds
• machine to machine processes exchange data between
billions of devices
• infrastructure and sensors generate massive log data in real-
time
• on-line gaming systems support millions of concurrent
users, each producing multiple inputs per second.
3rd Character of Big Data
Variety
• Big Data isn't just numbers, dates, and strings. Big
Data is also geospatial data, 3D data, audio and
video, and unstructured text, including log files and
social media.
• Traditional database systems were designed to
address smaller volumes of structured data, fewer
updates or a predictable, consistent data stru.

Topic: Being a software tester is no longer an easy job. It was. More technologies and platforms have emerged, along with more complex applications have been created to serve users’ various expectations while the time to go live is getting much shorter over time. It's not only about desktop or web-based applications but also about mobile, cloud-based applications, IoT and more. It's not only about testing alone anymore. It's about continuous integration and continuous delivery indeed.
How to survive and thrive in this Era of New Technology seems to become a critical question for all of us. Being a Full-stack Tester could be an answer, even though we may have different starting points in this career journey. And, the next considerable questions are: what is it and how to get there?
My presentation is to give you some ideas to answer those questions through my own experience in the path of pursuing Full-stack Tester.

Working as a Front-end developer is more challenging than ever since the Front-end part of application is no longer simple tasks. Nowadays, with the increased popularity of Single Page Application (SPA), developing a Front-end application requires more tools, more frameworks and also more attention from software engineers to application architecture so as to make sure high performance and scalability.
When the complexity of your SPA increases, more people have to work on the application at the same time and a larger number of components and UI elements are built. That results in the application scalability becoming a signification problem. Without a good approach, the more complicated our application becomes, the buggier, the more unproductive and low-performing it becomes. React and Redux are one of many technical stacks which provides a lot of support to developers to build a solid SPA in an easy and effective way. They are easy to pick up and to be productive with.
This presention will discuss benefits of using React and Redux as well as how to architect application in order to scale effectively without sacrificing benefits we have from React and Redux.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

• SMS messages – 6.1T per year
• US Cell Calls – 2.2T minutes per year
12. #3 - CLOUD COMPUTING
12
• Shift from ―Should we use‖ to ―how can we use
cloud‖ within corporate IT
• Personal Cloud to replace PCs for personal content
storage allowing access across multiple devices
• Cloud-based disaster-recovery as-a-service
• De-duplicating and Encryption of data before it is
sent to a cloud storage service will be an integral
component
13. CLOUD COMPUTING
13
• Start addressing the real drawbacks of cloud
computing - the challenges of scale, complexity and
change management - rather than fixating on its
supposed drawbacks such as security, compliance and
SLAs
• SaaS applications will continue to be developed using
Cloud Computing (private or public)
14. #4 - IN-MEMORY COMPUTING
14
―Enabling users to develop applications that run advanced
queries or perform complex transactions, on very large
datasets, at least one order of magnitude faster — and in
a more scalable way — than when using conventional
architectures‖
- Gartner definition
Examples:
• Fraud Detection
• Price Optimization
• Demand Forecast
• Flight Control – Fueling, Maintenance, & Scheduling
• Simulation (What-If Analysis)
15. IN-MEMORY COMPUTING
15
Why Now?
• 64-bit processors allowing access to 16 exabytes of
memory (32-bit limited it to 4GB)
• Memory chips getting faster, more capacity, and
cheaper due to Moore’s law
• New off-the-shelf commodity servers are capable of
1TB RAM capacity – big enough for many large
databases to remain in memory
• In-Memory RDBMS from Oracle, Microsoft, and others
allowing traditional SQL based applications to benefit
immediately by placing data in memory
• New development tools making it easier for developers
to build applications running across multiple blade
servers
• e.g. 1000 servers – 4 cores per server with 512 GB RAM
16. IN-MEMORY COMPUTING
16
• In-Memory Computing can squeeze batch processes
normally lasting hours into minutes or seconds.
• These processes are provided in the form of real-time
or near real-time services and delivered to users in the
form of cloud services.
• Numerous vendors will deliver in-memory solutions
over the next two years, driving this approach into
mainstream use.
17. #5 - ACTIONABLE ANALYTICS
17
• To make analytics more actionable and pervasively
deployed, BI and analytics professionals must make
analytics more invisible and transparent to their users
• Embedded analytic applications at the point of
decision or action
• Real-time operational intelligence systems that make
supervisors and operations staff more effective
• Provides simulation, prediction, optimization and other
analytics, to empower even more decision flexibility at
the time and place of every business process action
• Enabled by Big Data and In-Memory Computing
technologies
18. ACTIONABLE ANALYTICS
18
Tools:
• Google Analytics
• Teradata
• Greenplum
• Woopra
• Juice Analytics
• Jaspersoft
• KISSmetrics
Examples:
• Improving Quality of Healthcare
• Leveraging CRM data at the point of sell (Amazon)
• Gaining Operational Efficiency
• Field Service Order Processing
19. #6 – SOCIAL MEDIA
19
• Social Media trend continues to grow and more
business applications will leverage social media
through integrations
• The three most trusted forms of advertising are:
Recommendations from people I know - 90%
Consumer opinions posted online - 70%
Branded websites - 70%
• Mobile in the middle and primary device for use of
social media
• Google+ Is a Must - Google+ integration now extends
to many Google properties, such as
YouTube, Gmail, Blogger, and Search
21. NEXT STEPS
• Step Up. Expand your knowledge about what interests you the
most – pick 3 areas
• Provoke and harvest disruption. Don’t get caught unaware or
unprepared
• Look for Game Changer opportunities within your projects through
use of technologies
• Keep in Mind - Your projects may not adopt or use all of the
technologies
