It is becoming increasingly difficult for caseworkers and care providers to ensure healthy and productive lifestyles for individuals and families. The combination of assessing individual risk and aligning programming helps promote satisfying, productive family environments; adjust or reinforce positive individual behavior; aid in overcoming trauma and reduce or avoid risk. As a result, there is a pressing need for solutions to assess specifically what services are required at a given time for an individual or family. But by using predictive analytics technology, combining best practices in risk assessment with best-in-class analytic tools to better assess risk and determine near real-time outcome pathways, Human Outcome Analytics help practitioners provide the quality care families and individuals need.

The pace of business continues to accelerate, with customers expecting new and better application services delivered quickly. IBM®PureApplication® Software on VersaStack™ allows organizations to easily develop and deliver applications faster. Weeks of manual effort, documentation and ongoing maintenance are replaced by less than a few hours to deploy IBM recommended highly available golden topology in a repeatable fashion.

Read this IBM Solutions Brief to find out how PureApplication Software:

• Simplifies and accelerates application delivery with VersaStack
• Provides the fastest and simplest way to deploy enterprise applications and middleware onto cloud environments
• Provides workload deployment and cloud management capabilities on new or existing VersaStack deployments

Enterprise IT departments strive to contribute to the competitiveness of the business organization, developing and deploying innovative applications that can help benefit the bottom line and drive top-line growth. Too often, however, IT managers find themselves unable to develop and deploy applications with the agility they would like. The skills needed to quickly design, test, configure and integrate applications into complex IT environments can be difficult to find, and expert IT staff can quickly become overwhelmed by demand. Virtualization technology has helped drive efficiency improvements through consolidation of workloads and to a lesser extent through the management of systems and workloads. Now virtual application patterns from IBM take these capabilities a significant step further. This paper shows how IT organizations can use patterns of expertise provided by virtual application patterns to speed deployments, reduce the risk of error, and help simplify and automate tasks across the management and maintenance life cycle.
