Managing Identities, Access and Trust for Digital Workplace Success

The digital workplace is a business strategy to boost employee agility and engagement through a more consumerized work environment.

IAM can thus be an inhibitor for the digital workplace, inhibiting employee agility and engagement gains, and reducing the value of this investment.

Top 8 Trends for 2016: Big Data

The year 2015 was an important one in the world of big data. What used to be hype became the norm as more businesses realized that data, in all forms and sizes, is critical to making the best possible decisions.

These systems will evolve and mature to operate well inside of enterprise IT systems and standards. This will enable both business users and data scientists to fully realize the value of big data.

The database, integration, and analytics markets are now in a race to understand how each can ultimately capitalize on this shift.

Agile Operations und die drei Wege

In nahezu jedem Gespräch über DevOps geht es um die Transformation von Development-Teams, die der Übergang vom sequenziellen Design von Wasserfallmethoden zum iterativen, agilen Ansatz von Scrum-Methoden mit sich bringt. Und das ist auch kein Wunder, denn sie ist drastisch, spannend und liefert beeindruckende Ergebnisse. Was hingegen genauso drastisch ist, aber weniger oft erwähnt wird, ist der Wechsel, den IT-Operations-Teams aushandeln müssen. Im Zusammenhang mit der uns bekannten vorhersagbaren Stabilität kann die Andeutung, dass eine wachsende Reihe von als „Agile Operations“ bezeichneten Praktiken existiert, irreführend scheinen. Das aber nur, bis man berücksichtigt, wie Cloud-Computing, Microservices, containerisierte Anwendungen und Ähnliches die Definition von Infrastruktur grundlegend verändern. Diese neue, agile Infrastruktur und die mit ihr verbundenen Konzepte wie zum Beispiel geplante Ausfälle bewirken – oder erfordern gar – die Zusammenarbeit zwischen Development und Operations.
