An old adage states that you cannot manage what you don’t know. Do you know what devices are on your network, where they are located, how they are configured, what they are connected to, and how they are affected by changes and failures?
Today’s network infrastructure is becoming more and more complex, while demands on the Network Administrator to ensure network availability and performance are higher than ever. Business critical systems depend upon you managing your entire network infrastructure and delivering high-quality service 24/7, 365 days a year. So how do you keep the pace?
Learn how real-time visibility into your entire network infrastructure provides the power to manage your assets with greater control.

With ever shortening technology life cycles, change is not only constant but also quite frequent in today’s IT enterprise. But can your business keep up with such rapidly evolving IT? To stay on top of the change management game, you need to know exactly WHAT components constitute your IT setup, exactly WHERE each of them are, HOW they all are interconnected, and WHICH business service depends on each component. With application discovery and dependency mapping (ADDM), you can comprehensively map these interdependencies not only between the components themselves but between the components and the business services that rely on them as well.
To learn more about ADDM listen to Eveline Oehrlich, VP and research director (IT Infrastructure and Operations) of Forrester on our webinar, “How Application Discovery and Dependency Mapping can stop you from losing customers.” Learn:

Platforming the Major Analytic Use Cases for Modern EngineeringDATAVERSITY
We’ll describe some use cases as examples of a broad range of modern use cases that need a platform. We will describe some popular valid technology stacks that enterprises use in accomplishing these modern use cases of customer churn, predictive analytics, fraud detection, and supply chain management.
In many industries, to achieve top-line growth, it is imperative that companies get the most out of existing customer relationships. Customer churn use cases are about generating high levels of profitable customer satisfaction through the use of knowledge generated from corporate and external data to help drive a more positive customer experience (CX).
Many organizations are turning to predictive analytics to increase their bottom line and efficiency and, therefore, competitive advantage. It can make the difference between business success or failure.
Fraudulent activity detection is exponentially more effective when risk actions are taken immediately (i.e., stop the fraudulent transaction), instead of after the fact. Fast digestion of a wide network of risk exposures across the network is required in order to minimize adverse outcomes.
Supply chain leaders are under constant pressure to reduce overall supply chain management (SCM) costs while maintaining a flexible and diverse supplier ecosystem. They will leverage IoT, sensors, cameras, and blockchain. Major investments in advanced analytics, warehouse relocation, and automation, both in distribution centers and stores, will be essential for survival.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

18. Use Case Scenario: Intermittent Application Failure
Challenge Enterprise IT systems rely on teams of specialists, each with
different domain expertise. When an application fails due to
intermittent loss of network connectivity, the applications group
may not have the tools necessary to diagnose the issue.
Solution Foglight NMS adds critical visibility into flapping ports on network
devices and allows administrators to correlate network events to
application performance issues.
Benefit Application Performance issues that could not previously be
explained, can be resolved leading to improved end user experience.
19. Use Case Scenario: Applications run slow
Challenge The performance of business critical applications accessed across
the network are impacted by non-work related activities like web
surfing, streaming You Tube video and Pandora.
Solution Foglight NMS provides the traffic data necessary to analyze the
amount of bandwidth consumed by non business critical applications
so that administrators can refocus critical resources where they are
needed.
Benefit Increased network bandwidth ensures that business critical
applications will perform well.
