Building a Cognitive Q&A Application

In 2011 IBM's Watson computer beat two Jeopardy grand masters to demonstrate the power of Cognitive Computing. In this video, Chris Madison, will do a deep dive into Watson's Question and Answer service available on IBM Bluemix.

Transforming How We Deliver Value: Agility at Scale

Continuous delivery in software development allows us to deliver incrementally, get quick feedback, and react. A key enabler is the adoption of agile techniques and methods; key inhibitors in the enterprise are size, scale, and complexity. Now we must coordinate work across multiple interdependent teams to deliver value, rather than focusing on developing a single product or application. Amy Silberbauer shares her experience of adapting SAFe in an enterprise organization and describes the struggles, mistakes, and successes throughout that process. Learn how to avoid some common pitfalls as you and your own organization embark on this same transformation.
