This paper describes the IBM point-of-view on which execution engines are necessary and appropriate for a complete mobile testing solution.

Businesses and employees are now using mobile devices in ways not envisioned as recently as a year ago. Personal device ownership and usage in the enterprise is growing rapidly, and more businesses than ever before are facing the challenge of how to fully provision, mange and secure mobile devices in their corporate environments. Desktops, laptops, smartphones and tablets are coming together and need a single platform to manager every device, both personal and corporate owned.

The universe of mobility is a complex thing, and it is ever expanding-much like our actual universe. The other similarity mobility shares with our ever- expanding cosmos is the potential that can be realised through a rational, analytic, and comprehensive understanding.

A case study in the financial services industry demonstrates the IBM cloud-enabled data centerapproach to designing highly resilient systems. Intended for senior-level architects with cloudcomputing backgrounds, the article outlines a methodical approach to providing continuouslyavailable digital-channel services.

A recent performance benchmark demonstrates the superior performance and scalability of the IBM InfoSphere Master Data Management solution. The paper demonstrates that the solution running in a DB2 pureScale environment is a better performing and more scalable MDM solution with a lower TCO.

Forrester Consulting describes Master Data Management (MDM) as a ‘critical business capability and technology foundation.’ IBM clients interviewed achieved a variety of operational benefits from their MDM programs, including call center savings, improved efficiencies for inside sales staff, and lower costs for customer mailings and returns. In fact, Forrester found that a composite organization received a risk-adjusted return of 36%% on its investment in IBM InfoSphere MDM, with benefits beginning to accrue in the first year of implementation.

IBM is known across industries as the leader in information integration and governance. The InfoSphere portfolio provides comprehensive solutions for information governance. This research piece by 451 Research provides an overview and assessment of IBM's InfoSphere solutions for information integration and governance portfolio.

Aberdeen has long illustrated the benefits of well-managed, trustworthy data, and the problems associated with poor data quality. As data volumes rapidly expand and data environments become more complex, what were once small nuisances evolve into massive, company-wide problems. Using research collected from December 2009 to December 2012, Aberdeen will examine the hidden financial penalties for lapsed information governance and untrustworthy data. In order to avoid these pitfalls and achieve better business efficiency and operational performance, top performing organizations have found it necessary to invest in tools such as data security, master data management, data quality, data lifecycle management and data integration.

As part of an overall IT transformation, a company evaluated two products to potentially provide integration and messaging capabilities: an open source ESB and IBM Integration Bus.
