According to the Gregorian calendar, the December 21 equinox is rapidly approaching and consequently so is the end of the year 2006.
It seems fitting that as we phase out of our last 365 and in to our next 365 we should pause to remember the good and not so good. So, here is our interpretation of 2006...
How Virtualization is Enabling Self-Service to Transform the Global Lifecycle Date: Wednesday, July 23, 2008 Time: 2:00 PM Eastern; 11:00 AM Pacific
Banks have ATMs; grocery stores have self checkout; airlines have self check-in. All of these self-service approaches provide convenience for customers and deliver ROI for the companies that offer them. Self-service has appeared within the corporate environment as well. Many companies are offering self-service access to computing resources to their business constituents. This increases the ability to provide infrastructure and services more efficiently and use resources in more strategic ways to benefit the business.
Cutting edge IT services are now available through a self-service model thanks to virtualization. Virtualization lets companies pool IT resources and provide them as needed throughout the entire global lifecycle.
Join analyst Theresa Lanowitz, founder of voke Inc., for this informative session where you will learn about self-service IT and:
Key components to the global lifecycle transformation
Current issues hindering the implementation of the global lifecycle and how to overcome them
Best practices and innovative technologies available for the enterprise
Learn how virtualization is enabling self-service to transform the global lifecycle!
Join Theresa Lanowitz and Blueprint on Wednesday June 18, 7:00-7:30pm at the Partner Showcase Theatre at HP Software Universe, Las Vegas, NV.
All are painfully aware of the dismal statistics on software projects success rates. Recent reports show that the situation is not trending for the better, and continue to point to poor requirements as the leading cause. When you peel back the covers it’s really no wonder – the discipline of Requirements Definition is not formalized, most are trying to do this work using only word processors and spreadsheets, and the role of requirements author is anything but standardized or supported.
The good news is that there is significant movement in the industry on all these fronts of late. Professional organizations are emerging for this discipline and are growing rapidly, powerful purpose-built tools for Requirements Definition now exist, and the role of the Business Analyst is rapidly solidifying. This presentation provides a snapshot of these new developments and shares some results from a recent study on the role of the Business Analyst.
We invite Business Analysts or anyone interested in requirements to take the survey!
One of the most critical roles emerging in the enterprise IT organization is that of the Business Analyst (BA).
We are conducting a survey exploring the role of the BA, the processes they adhere to and their opinion on the market readiness of technology targeted to the BA.
We invite BA’s or anyone interested in requirements to take the survey! We look forward to hearing from you. Act now, the survey ends June 22, 2008.
Today's enterprise apps are both complex and ever-changing, which makes delivering high performance difficult. By Virtualizing the behavior of application services and data in a VSE, teams can answer this challenge with Load & Performance validation best practices, and test tools like LoadRunner, to ensure solid performance throughout the development and integration lifecycle.
Join leading Application Lifecycle analyst Theresa Lanowitz, voke, and iTKO LISA founder & Chief Architect John Michelsen, for this online event May 28, 2008, 2:00 PM Eastern / 11:00 AM Pacific.
Test managers constantly lament that few outside their group understand or care much about the value they provide and consistently deliver. Unfortunately, they are often correct. The lack of visibility and understanding of the test team’s contribution can lead to restricted budgets, fewer resources, tighter timelines, and ultimately, lower group productivity. Join Theresa Lanowitz and Dan Koloski as they highlights ways to move from simply being a tester of software to an advocate for your organization’s customers. Learn how to effectively and concisely communicate with key stakeholders in your organization to ensure that they understand the value and role of the testing group. With effective and concise communication, the testing group will be perceived as more strategically important and integral to the success of every project.
Specific points to be discussed include:
Strategies for communicating complex data
Ensuring your communications give you the visibility you need
How to create testing evangelists within your organization
