Central Role of Messaging Middleware in Cloud and Digital Transformation Initiatives

Highly decentralized computing is the new normal for most organizations, and digital transformation (DX) initiatives are changing application architectures to event driven to support real-time and near-real-time response cycles. In this environment, enterprises are increasingly turning to messaging middleware to meet the combined requirements of complexity, speed, reliability, and security to connect the digital world of applications and data.

Lyft’s Move to Microservices: A Case Study

Lyft’s consumer mobile app has real­time transactions totaling more than one million rides per day, so performance is critically important. The smallest lapses – even a few milliseconds – contribute to negative customer experiences and lost revenue. As Lyft’s Vice President of Engineering, Pete Morelli, explained, “The bigger you get, the better you have to be. Half an hour of downtime may have cost you five rides early on, now it costs millions of dollars in rides. The level of reliability expected of Lyft is not trivial. People are riding to work or to doctors’ appointments.

Global Microservices Trends Report

The old elements of logging, metrics, and tracing are insufficient for today’s complex software systems. If you’re adopting microservices, you know that faster root cause analysis and the ability to confidently measure and explain performance is key to improve efficiency and save developer time.

Read this report to understand:

  • Countless disconnected time­series statistics aren’t enough to explain the behavior of modern applications.
  • Tools must identify, triage, and explain latency issues, as organizations adopt microservices
  • It’s critical to evolve our thinking about latency measurements and how they play a part in diagnostic workflows.

Business Protection, Simplified: Disaster Recovery Strategies That Work

No matter where a business is on the road to digital transformation, IT and LOB execs must not overlook the importance of having a solid business continuity strategy that doesn’t break the bank. And, the more ‘digital’ a business becomes, the more important it is for 24/7/365 access for customers, whether next door or around the world.

This BattleCard looks at the factors driving business continuity and disaster recovery strategies, and how to structure your BC/DR plan to minimize three critical factors: Recovery time objective (RTO), recovery point objective (RPO), and total cost of ownership (TCO) for your BC/DR solution.

Application Modernization: On the Path to Digital Transformation

In our “there’s an app for that” environment, businesses need to offer their customers anywhere, anytime, any device access to engage with customers, suppliers, and employees. However, critical business logic in legacy applications is often trapped in on-premises datacenters, limiting access in today’s multi-cloud, multi-vendor world.

This BattleCard looks at ways business-critical legacy applications can be freed from their data center roots, and how to develop a plan for re-factoring or re-platforming tried-and-true code to embrace a business’ digital transformation and become more cloud-savvy

Data Center Migration: Stepping Stone to Modernization and Cloud

Businesses face a myriad of decisions when embarking on their digital transformation journey. Young companies are often ‘born in the cloud’, while established businesses often are burdened with legacy applications and infrastructure that can siphon IT attention from adding business value to chasing after OS upgrades and hardware failures.

This battlecard looks at the challenges enterprises are facing at the outset of their digital transformation and provides guidance on how to utilize off-site hosting capabilities as an important first step to both modernization and the cloud.

Experts Share Tactics to Help Financial Services Organizations

According to PWC, attacks on financial institutions grew 130% last year. And in a recent outage at a regional bank, equipment failure led to $15 million in lost revenue and another $5 million in fee waivers and associated costs. In addition to the raw cost of an incident, financial organizations also face the risk of exposed customer information, regulatory fines, loss of trust and impact to stock prices.

In the webinar, Minimizing Data Disruptions Through Business Continuity Planning, our experts will:

  • Define the scope of data continuity, including disaster recovery and mitigation.
  • Discuss common causes of service interruptions.
  • Show you how to identify the right data continuity solution for your organization.
  • Define tiers of disaster recovery, including multi-tenant DR and full-featured solutions.
  • Share strategies for handling complexity and other DR issues.

An effective business continuity strategy can provide immense value for your organization — better planning would have saved that regional bank $20 million and a lot of dissatisfied customers.
