Enterprise Social Networking   Wikis have taken the Content Management System and Email revolutions to the next level by helping organizations optimize the sharing of collective knowledge, insights and creativity. Specifically, Wikis improve connectedness by tapping into community involvement. As you know, delegation is key to managerial success, but community delegation drives greater leverage and productivity. Furthermore, Wikis can improve business processes by capturing and disseminating the subtleness of informal knowledge. Finally, when selecting an enterprise-class wiki solution look to scalability, performance, reliability and a secure well-supported environment.  We interview Devang Mehta to gain eTouch SamePage's perspective on enterprise social networking. Devang is the head of marketing and business development for eTouch SamePage. 43 Minutes Extend the Reach of Traditional BI   Saving labor on tedious tasks and freeing employees for more thought intensive work generates a dynamic competitive advantage for your business. This is being accomplished by creating intelligent tools that supercharge the knowledge management process by enabling a Web2.0 ecosystem for accessing, sharing and delivering business intelligence. Moreover, the solution is powered by machine-intelligent software Agents that act as an extension for business staff to collect, aggregate and mashup near real-time data from reliable Web and enterprise sources. Furthermore, the next generation of BI applications provide on the spot extract transform loading which is created by non-programmers from intranets, email and documents. We interview Bruce Molloy to gain Connotate Technologies' perspective on how to extend the reach of traditional business intelligence with software agents. Bruce is Connotate's CEO.  35 Minutes Customer Intimacy   A wealth of data is in applications for order management, accounting and sales force automation. That data contains valuable customer insights, and more CIOs are looking to predictive analytics to uncover those insights. Furthermore, you cannot rely on selling and marketing to mass audiences the way you have in the past. Customers are asserting their individuality, and they want to engage in personal relationships that extend beyond the point of purchase, however and wherever those interactions occur. Today, a lot of digital noise is outside your organizations control. Few of those conversations are useful, but a few voices might determine the success or failure of your marketing campaigns, product development or operational efficiencies. We interview Erick Brethenoux to gain SPSS an IBM Company's perspective on customer intimacy. Erick is the VP of Corporate Development for SPSS an IBM Company. 47 Minutes  Business Process Mobilization   We have only just scratched the surface of the productivity gains that are likely to grow from the development of mobile technology. Furthermore, the paradigm is shifting from portable voice transmission and email delivery to a complete pocket office and control center that can replicate every function available at company headquarters. Companies that embrace the new technology will enhance their existing IT investments, increase their workforce productivity and put themselves at the forefront of the new business mobility that can help companies manage their business more effectively and more profitably. Moreover, you can now leverage a new level of access to information and management control of processes and operations than has previously been thought possible. We interview Bryan Whitmarsh to gain Sybase's perspective on business process mobilization. Bryan is a senior product manager with Sybase. 26 Minutes Improving User Interaction With RIAs While the web deployment model has reduce the cost of software deployment, it has also created a community of underserved business users that long for a return to the usability and responsiveness of desktop and client/server applications. Fortunately, forward-looking IT professionals are now turning their attention to design patterns and technologies that can improve the client side of the equation. As a result, we are now seeing widespread deployment of rich Internet applications (RIAs), which combines the responsiveness and interactivity of desktop applications with the broad reach and ease of distribution of the web. We interview Duane Nickull to gain insight into web development with actionable blueprints. Duane is a Technical Evangelist with Adobe Systems 58 Minutes Ajax Optimization   Ajax is emerging as the preferred development approach for web 2.0 applications. While the asynchronous nature of Ajax applications makes them fundamentally different from standard Web applications, Ajax applications are still built upon standard Web infrastructure. Moreover, Ajax behavior does not obviate the benefits of application acceleration. Indeed, this asynchronous behavior can make request switching and high-availability functionality more important to an Ajax application than to a standard Web application. We interview Prabakar Sundarrajan to gain Citrix Systems' perspective on optimizing Ajax applications. Prabakar Sundarrajan is the CTO of Citrix Systems’ Application Networking Group.  36 Minutes The Journey to Web 3.0   Web 3.0 is a collection of concepts, and inventions that have yet to be adopted by the masses. Furthermore, the missing links of vocabulary and event processing are preventing current solutions around SOA and Business Intelligence from completely delivering on their promise of agility, customer retention and growth. SOA is the enablement platform for Web 3.0 and Semantics will play a key role in its functionality. We interview Sam Ceccola to gain BEA Systems' perspective on how Semantics is the glue binding Social Computing, Business Intelligence and SOA to create Web 3.0. Sam Ceccola is the Deputy CTO of BEA Systems.  60 Minutes Semantics Drives User Empowerment   Information workers have too many things to track across the Web and Enterprise. Furthermore, ignoring Information Fragmentation can cost you your competitive advantage. To meet this challenge, many companies are supercharging their knowledge management process by enabling a Web2.0 ecosystem within the enterprise. For example, Intelligent Software Agents can monitor, mashup and extract information from a variety of internal and external sources to deliver actionable insight. Collecting, aggregating and delivering normalized data from a broad range of structured and unstructured fast-changing sources is key to creating user empowerment. We interview Bruce Molloy to gain Connotate Technologies' perspective on information access technology. Bruce is the CEO of Connotate Technologies. 35 Minutes Mass Market SOA And Web 2.0 Apps   Rich Enterprise Applications arise from the convergence of two major trends in the development of Web applications. Those applications have become more complex, and any project that is targeting the goal of “retiring” an old outdated system often ends up, not only replacing the old functionality, but actually adding many new functions to the system. Furthermore, enterprise developers must serve two demanding groups of masters at the same time: consumers desiring all of the user interface aspects of Web 2.0 and businesses wanting more and more functionality. We interview Fima Katz to gain insight into meeting the Web 2.0 challenge with a components-based approach. Fima is the CEO of Exadel.  43 Minutes Semantically Connected Intelligence   When you’re making an important business decision or reacting to a developing emergency, you want to concentrate on crucial information. Leverage typical search tools, data warehouses or publish-subscribe systems, and you might end up with a vague analysis, a slow response, and an unsound decision. Optimizing your decision process requires information from multiple sources which come in different formats, and which is organized in conflicting ways. Needless to say, the potential for confusion is huge. To makes sense this real-time information jigsaw puzzle, you need technology that understands the context of data. We interview Daniel Reininger to gain Semandex Networks' perspective on Semantically connected intelligence. Daniel is the CEO of Semandex Networks. 37 Minutes Semantics Drives Critical Intelligence   Jessica Lunsford was murdered by a known sex offender who did not inform the police that he had moved into her neighborhood, and who had been released earlier by a state court that did not have access to parts of his criminal record. This tragedy has caused new information-integration technologies to be adopted by the Florida court system. Those semantic technologies link data from existing disparate systems to create a more common understanding. We interview Howard Greenblatt to gain Metatomix's perspective on how semantics drives mission critical actionable intelligence. Howard is the CTO of Metatomix. 35 Minutes Semantic Tech Drives Actionable Insight Semantic technology intelligently links customer data from existing disparate systems to create a common understanding of your customer across the enterprise. Using this contextual understanding, semantic solutions enable real-time analysis and insights, orchestrating coordinated responses amongst existing systems to optimize customer response and relationships. Furthermore, the semantic approach intelligently integrates existing systems in real-time to optimize and implement decisions based on the best data available. We interview Colin Britton to gain Metatomix's perspective on how turn data into actionable insight. Colin is the CTO of Metatomix.  32 Minutes
