How do you minimize the effect of browser diversity and the associated performance and compatibility issues?
Your customers are using multiple versions of Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari and Opera. Plus, newer browsers like Internet Explorer 8 and Google Chrome handle connections per host name and dynamic content such as JavaScript differently, multiplying the risk of performance and compatibility issues with business critical Web pages and transactions.
Failure to keep abreast and adapt to the changing browser landscape will impact your ability to optimize application performance and quickly identify and resolve performance issues before customers are impacted.
Join Gomez CTO Imad Mouline and guest speaker Forrester Research, Inc. Senior Analyst Mike Gualtieri for this complimentary webinar to learn:
* What browser proliferation means for IT and web application owners
* Challenges and opportunities of cross-browser web application performance optimization
* The latest browser trends such as the evolution of mobile and HTML 5
* Best practices to ensure browser diversity does not result in downtime, slow response times and rising support costs
UEVision Presents: How Usability Can Help You Get More CustomersUEVision, Inc.

The document discusses the importance of user-facing, patent-protected differentiators for mobile device manufacturers to compete with Apple. It states that manufacturers need to innovate through acquiring or developing patented features that consumers see and value to drive purchase decisions and brand loyalty, rather than focusing only on internal specifications. Developing these differentiators and protecting them with patents prevents competitors from quickly copying the features. The document recommends manufacturers pursue strategies to rapidly bring such differentiators to market in their products.

Agile09: The Product Manager/Owner DilemmaRich Mironov
The document discusses the relationship between product managers and product owners in Agile development. It notes that while product owners focus on backlog management and user stories for iterations, product managers handle broader strategic responsibilities like market analysis, product strategy, and coordination with other teams. The document recommends that for small, co-located teams one person can fill both roles, but for more complex products the roles are best split, with the product manager focusing on outward-facing duties and a product owner representing customers to the development team. It warns that having one person try to fully cover both roles risks the product or market needs not being adequately represented.

The Need For Open Software Security Standards In A Mobile And Cloudy WorldDenim Group
The security landscape is changing and the security industry must adapt to stay relevant. The economic and scale benefits of the cloud are causing organizations to move sensitive business processes and data outside of the safety of the corporate environment. New business models and other opportunities to create value through innovation are moving sensitive data and code onto untrusted mobile devices. Organizations are going to adopt these new cloud and mobile technologies and information security practitioners will be forced to evolve current models for risk management and mitigation. This presentation discusses the need for open software security standards to support this evolution. Being required to trust cloud service providers leads to a need for increased visibility into the software security practices of those providers. In addition, reliance on these providers’ software as well as the requirement to place software in untrusted environments such as mobile devices creates a demand for better standards for evaluating the security state of complicated systems. Many previous efforts have been focused on proprietary models that failed to provide sufficient insight or on models that lacked a level of technical rigor required to provide assurance. The solutions to these issues are open standards that are based on the real risks organizations encounter when adopting cloud and mobile technologies and the presentation outlines potential paths forward that can provide risk managers with the assurances they need while also freeing up businesses to intelligently consume emerging technologies.

Similar to Thriving In A Multi-Browser World – 4 Tips for Optimizing Website Performance across Web Browsers (20)
Complexity At The Edge How To Maximize The Mobile OpportunityCompuware APM
Mobile applications and websites are increasingly complex due to different networks, browsers, devices and technologies. Ensuring good performance across this complex mobile landscape is challenging. Poor mobile performance can significantly impact businesses through increased abandonment rates and reduced conversions. Application performance monitoring solutions are needed to optimize mobile experiences, understand performance issues and their business impacts, and quickly resolve problems.
Managing Cost in Public Cloud EnvironmentsCompuware APM
This document discusses managing costs in public cloud environments. It begins by explaining that moving to public clouds is about on-demand provisioning and easy scaling to save resources and money. However, there is a paradigm shift, as the risk moves from unplanned capacity needs to unplanned operational costs. To manage this new risk, companies must monitor resource usage and understand how application usage drives costs. This allows identification of costly transactions, features, user behavior, and tenants to better optimize spending.
Don't Lose Your Viewers: Keep Their Attention With High Performance StreamingCompuware APM
Significant effort and investment go into producing great online advertisements, music videos, and trailers for blockbuster movies. If the video stream is not available, you end up with “dead air.” If the stream rebuffers repeatedly, causing users long wait times, you’re creating poor end-user experience and, worse, possibly losing them as customers. Both outcomes are going to result in a negative impact on your brand and your revenue.
Why Server Virtualization Demands an End-user’s PerspectiveCompuware APM
Enterprises regularly refresh server platforms to harness improvements in compute capacity, power consumption and maintenance costs. In 2012, servers are more likely to be virtualized than physical, presenting new challenges in a migration project. Monitoring at a component-level won't improve performance but subjective monitoring of the end-user experience (EUE) does.
Today's Application Performance Management (APM) tools employ EUE monitoring so pre-migration baselines and post-migration SLAs are based on what matters: the subjective quality of user experience. The added benefit? APM identifies and resolves problems more quickly than component monitoring tools. This shields server migration projects from costly extensions and infrastructure overlaps by accelerating problem identification and resolution.
Join Compuware and featured guest Forrester Research, Inc. in this webcast to understand:

Measure Twice, Cut Once: 5 Best Practices For Selecting Your Cloud Service Pr...Compuware APM
So, you’ve defined your cloud strategy, developed the business plan, published your cloud application roadmap, and got buy-in from all the stakeholders. Now comes the hard part – selecting your cloud service providers and partners!
Many companies are finding out the hard way that while the cloud is a simple concept, beneath the billows lays a complex application delivery chain with many hidden dependencies and unforeseen business risks. And with the business demanding faster and faster ‘time-to-value’, you have less time to do more, often without good information. The net result is your risk of choosing the wrong cloud service provider is significant. It could even reduce or eliminate the planned business benefits and ROI.
So how can you ensure that your selection process for cloud service providers and partners is fast but well-informed, based on reliable data and mitigates the risk of hidden surprises?
Join EMA and Compuware in this webinar and discover:
• Where to find reliable, actionable data on CSP performance and availability
• What factors you should take into account that are unique to you
• Whether SLAs matter when it comes to selecting a CSP
• How to identify hidden dependencies and unforeseen risks
• How to do cost-effective, real-world performance testing of CSPs
How to Mitigate the Performance Risk of Third-party Web ComponentsCompuware APM
No website is an island. To provide rich customer experiences, websites increasingly depend on third-party components such as shopping carts, ads, customer reviews, web analytics, social networking, search engine optimization, video, and many more. Third-party components enrich your website’s functionality to drive more traffic to your site, offer interactive experiences, increase conversion, and add new functionality when it becomes available.
The problem: Your entire website can be vulnerable to degraded performance or a complete shutdown if any one of these components fails. The solution is to follow best practices in website design and monitoring to happily use third-party components while mitigating the risk of dependency.
Forrester principal analyst Mike Gualtieri and Compuware APM CTO Steve Tack to show:
• How third-party components can make your website better and why this trend will only increase.
• Why service level agreements give you a false sense of security.
• Best practices to mitigate the risks of using third-party components.
Optimizing web and mobile site performance using page speedCompuware APM
End-users’ expectations for web and mobile site performance keep rising. In a 2011 survey of 4,014 mobile web users 71% stated they expect websites to load as quickly, almost as quickly or faster on their mobile phone than on the computer they use at home – up from 58% in 2009.
With web and mobile sites your customers expect transactions that are fast and work faultlessly. Failure to deliver quality web experiences through slow or malfunctioning sites will result in lost customers and business.

The document urges companies to monitor mobile performance.
Are Your Applications Delivering What Your End-Users Expect?Compuware APM
The end user experience is a critical pillar of application performance management. It requires a global view that tracks the path of an application from data center through the Internet, and all the way to "the last mile" of delivery to the end user's computer or device.
Although a well-established discipline, traditional application performance management approaches provide highly silo'ed views of application delivery to the end user. A full picture requires breadth and depth, and a view of the full business impact.
Featured speakers, Tony Baer, Senior Analyst from independent research firm Ovum, and Compuware APM CTO Steve Tack to show:
• Why traditional monitoring doesn’t tell the full story
• The top 5 APM best practices
• How to build your APM roadmap: applying best practices and creating your performance journey

5 Best Practices for Successful Cloud Deployments – and the Pitfalls to AvoidCompuware APM
Companies that rely on enforcing Service Level Agreements (SLAs) from their Cloud Service Providers to manage the performance of their cloud applications are increasingly discovering that they are failing to meet their business objectives. The reality is that by the time an SLA has been missed, your end users and customers have already been severely impacted, resulting in poor adoption and missed revenue opportunities.
Successful cloud deployments require real-time visibility of application performance and service level trends across the entire delivery chain – from first mile (your data center) to last mile (your users). This insures that companies are able to detect problems anywhere in the delivery chain, before end users, customers, and your business are impacted.
This webinar will provide evidence of the revenue impact of poor cloud application performance and service level management, and will present an integrated cross-domain services and application performance management strategy that will dramatically improve the business results that you achieve with Cloud Computing. The information will be of use to anyone who is responsible for the successful execution of their company’s cloud strategy, both in the line-of-business and IT.
Dennis Drogseth, Vice President, Enterprise Management Associates, Inc and Richard Stone, Compuware’s Cloud Solutions Manager talk about:
• Research results showing how and where companies are benefitting most, and conversely where they’ve had issues, or had to rethink and redirect their cloud initiatives
• Best practices to adopt – and pitfalls to avoid – that will enable you to get cloud deployments right the first time from both a process and an APM perspective
