The DataOps Revolution Delivering the Data-Driven Enterprise

DataOps is a new way of delivering data and analytics that is proven to get results. It enables IT and users to collaborate in the delivery of solutions that help organisations to embrace a data-driven culture. The DataOps Revolution: Delivering the Data-Driven Enterprise is a narrative about real world issues involved in using DataOps to make data-driven decisions in modern organisations. The book is built around real delivery examples based on the author’s own experience and lays out principles and a methodology for business success using DataOps. Presenting practical design patterns and DataOps approaches the book shows how DataOps projects are run and presents the benefits of using DataOps to implement data solutions. Best practices are introduced in this book through the telling of a story which relates how a lead manager must find a way through complexity to turn an organisation around. This narrative vividly illustrates DataOps in action enabling readers to incorporate best practices into everyday projects. The book tells the story of an embattled CIO who turns to a new and untested project manager charged with a wide remit to roll out DataOps techniques to an entire organisation. It illustrates a different approach to addressing the challenges in bridging the gap between IT and the business. The approach presented in this story lines up to the six IMPACT pillars of the DataOps model that Kinaesis (www. kinaesis. com) has been using through its consultants to deliver successful projects and turn around failing deliveries. The pillars help to organise thinking and structure an approach to project delivery. The pillars are broken down and translated into steps that can be applied to real-world projects that can deliver satisfaction and fulfillment to customers and project team members. | The DataOps Revolution Delivering the Data-Driven Enterprise

The Business Value of Software

In business driving value is a key strategy and typically starts at the top of an organization. In today’s digital age driving software value is also an important and often overlooked key strategy. Executives and the corporate board need to expect the highest level of business value from the software the organization is developing buying and selling. In today’s digital transformation marketplace it is imperative that organizations start driving business value from software development initiatives. For many years the cost of software development challenged organizations with questions such as: How do we allocate software development costs?Should these costs be considered an overhead expense?Are we getting the most value possible for our investment? A fundamental problem has been built into these questions – the focus on cost. In almost every other part of the organization maximizing profit or in the case of a not-for-profit maximizing the funds available provides a clear focus with metrics to determine success or failure. In theory simply aligning software spending with the maximizing profit goals should be sufficient to avoid any questions about value for money. Unfortunately this alignment hasn’t turned out to be so simple and the questions persist particularly at the strategic or application portfolio level. In this book Michael D. S. Harris describes how a software business value culture—one where all stakeholders including technology and business—have a clear understanding of the goals and expected business value from software development. The book shows readers how they can transform software development from a cost or profit center to a business value center. Only a culture of software as a value center enables an organization to constantly maximize business value flow through software development. If your organization is starting to ask how it can change software from a cost-center to a value-center this book is for you. | The Business Value of Software

Managing Business Projects The Essentials

Managing Business Projects: The Essentials differs from many other project management textbooks. Foremost it is about business projects as opposed to construction or engineering projects. Although many techniques like schedule management apply to both they are usually applied differently. As its title conveys the book explains the essential techniques and perspectives needed for business projects to be successful. The focus is on small- and medium-sized projects up to $20 million but often below $1 million. Some literature favors large and mega-projects but for every mega-project there are many thousands of smaller projects that are vital to the organization and could involve considerable complexity and risk. Nevertheless the techniques outlined here also apply to mega-projects and their many subprojects; they even apply to some aspects of construction or engineering projects. This book does not aim to cover all project management techniques. In real life there is simply no time for sophisticated ‘should-dos. ' Rather it covers the essentials that apply to almost all business projects; these are unlikely to change in the future even as technology and methodologies advance. The driving idea which is stated repeatedly is to do the essentials and to do them consistently and well. Strong emphasis is placed on things that happen before around and after the project itself. So while the basic disciplines like engaging with stakeholders managing scope schedules costs risks issues changes and communication are thoroughly explained other important aspects are covered. These include: governance of a project and of a portfolio of projects project selection with its financial and non-financial aspects effective use of the business case through to benefits realization procurement outsourcing and partnership and also the agile mindset that is valuable beyond Agile projects. Besides project managers and sponsors this book is intended for people who are working in business or government at any level or for MBA students. It offers perspectives that enable them to learn more from their everyday experience. It is not aimed at undergraduate students although many would benefit from the contents. | Managing Business Projects The Essentials

Business Strategies for the Next-Generation Network

Carriers and service providers have united around the concept of the Next-Generation Network (NGN). Although leveraging a broad basket of Internet technologies the NGN is not being planned as the next-generation Internet. In its intention and architecture it is more accurately described as Broadband-ISDN release 2. 0. The NGN transition is hard for both practitioners and observers to understand because it weaves together a number of distinct strands: the development of a new architecture and technology base including advanced IT automation systems the development of a portfolio of ‘new wave’ products and services which exploits the power of the new network the design of a new kind of organization which can utilize the higher levels of automation in the NGN and reduce costs and the development of an effective transition plan which can smoothly move operators from their current legacy networks systems and processes to the NGN future. The book begins with a review of the failures of previous attempts by carriers to retool for the future. It describes in detail the technologies and capabilities supporting “new wave’” services focusing particularly on multimedia interactive services TV and Video-on-Demand. The author looks at the IMS layer and how it interworks both downwards into the QoS-enabled IP transport layer and upwards to enable new kinds of applications. However equal attention is addressed to the business models of players in the value chain carriers service providers broadcasters and production companies. The author then examines how carriers have attempted to remodel themselves as IP companies along the dimensions of people processes and IT automation systems describing the lessons to be learned from numerous failures.

Philippine Security in the Age of Terror National Regional and Global Challenges in the Post-9/11 World

As the twelfth most populous nation the Philippines’ diverse religious and ethnic population makes it an ideal example of the changing tenet of what is deemed national security—post 9/11. Issues previously considered social or public are now viewed as security issues. Food production is now analyzed in the context of food security and environmental degradation is now a part of environmental security. This broadened perspective is not unique to the Philippines but—thanks to the island nation’s long struggle with issues of Muslim radicalism democracy and globalization—it serves as a model worth studying. And no one is better positioned to take on this study than Rommel C. Banlaoi Chairman and Executive Director of the Philippine Institute for Peace Violence and Terrorism Research. In Philippine Security in the Age of Terror: National Regional and Global Challenges in the Post-9/11 World Banlaoi illustrates the increasing complexity of the issues. Divided into three sections the book explores why a nation’s security can no longer be just about its military or only about what is happening within its borders. Section I reviews issues specific to the Philippine people including politics national identity globalization and local and military security. Section II moves to bilateral security issues to report on security interests and collaborations with the United States China and Australia—as well as with India Japan and Russia. Section III examines selected global regional and multilateral issues such as maritime security piracy and the ASEAN Regional Forum. The comprehensive approach and coverage within the book reflects the author’s diverse interests as a scholar of politics security terrorism and international relations. More importantly it documents an intellectual journey that national policymakers across the world need to consider if they hope to achieve the shift in thinking that will promote the well-being of the world’s populations as the strategic centerpiece of any war on terrorism. | Philippine Security in the Age of Terror National Regional and Global Challenges in the Post-9/11 World

The Busy IT Manager’s Guide to Data Recovery

No IT manager or worker enjoys being woken up the middle of the night over a system fault. But arguably the worst way to be awakened is over a situation where data loss has occurred – and the recovery is going wrong. The Busy IT Manager’s Guide to Data Recovery takes a razor focus on the details IT managers (and their teams) responsible for data recovery and resiliency within their business need to be aware of in the design of robust data protection systems. This book covers key architectural requirements of a data resilient system and the types of technology a business can deploy for data protection that maximises the potential for a successful recovery. With cyber-attacks being a daily challenge for IT and business now the book also takes an in-depth look at the special considerations companies need to take in order to guarantee the recoverability of data after a destructive cyber event. Regardless of whether your IT infrastructure runs on-premises or in the public cloud this book gives you the information you need to plan and run a successful data recovery solution that meets your business needs. Preston de Guise has been working with data recovery products for his entire career – designing implementing and supporting solutions for governments universities and businesses ranging from SMEs to Fortune 500 companies.

The Complete Guide to Cybersecurity Risks and Controls

The Complete Guide to Cybersecurity Risks and Controls presents the fundamental concepts of information and communication technology (ICT) governance and control. In this book you will learn how to create a working practical control structure that will ensure the ongoing day-to-day trustworthiness of ICT systems and data. The book explains how to establish systematic control functions and timely reporting procedures within a standard organizational framework and how to build auditable trust into the routine assurance of ICT operations. The book is based on the belief that ICT operation is a strategic governance issue rather than a technical concern. With the exponential growth of security breaches and the increasing dependency on external business partners to achieve organizational success the effective use of ICT governance and enterprise-wide frameworks to guide the implementation of integrated security controls are critical in order to mitigate data theft. Surprisingly many organizations do not have formal processes or policies to protect their assets from internal or external threats. The ICT governance and control process establishes a complete and correct set of managerial and technical control behaviors that ensures reliable monitoring and control of ICT operations. The body of knowledge for doing that is explained in this text. This body of knowledge process applies to all operational aspects of ICT responsibilities ranging from upper management policy making and planning all the way down to basic technology operation.

The Web Accessibility Project Development and Testing Best Practices

Approximately 15% of the global population is affected by some sort of disability according to the World Report on Disability. Many C-Suite executives perceive digital accessibility (DA) as an endless task. Among the engineering leaders one in four leaders are reliant on very limited knowledge about digital accessibility. Many countries are increasing their legislative efforts to make web accessibility an important part in web development and testing of software releases. Numerous organizations are facing extreme turbulence when not adhering to international accessibility guidelines while developing their software’s and website applications. Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) is a global guide on accessibility recommendations that are developed through the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to help organizations to meet minimum standard accessibility guidelines. It has become critical for every organization to focus on implementing the accessibility checks at every stage of their application development to avoid costly mistakes. Meanwhile the need for front-end engineers and Quality Assurance (QA) test analysts to learn WCAG best practices is immensely important for the growing need to incorporate accessibility-focused inclusive design development and extensive accessibility testing which are essential for most of the customer-facing websites. In a fast-paced world incorporating shift left accessibility within development and testing is the new normal. The Web Accessibility Project: Development and Testing Best Practices helps developers address right accessibility attributes to user interface (UI) components. It also helps developers focus on developing manual and automation tests for QA professionals to inject accessibility audit accessibility functional tests and accessibility automation tests as part of their Continuous Integration and Continuous Development (CI/CD) models. The book is filled with readily usable best practices to adapt web accessibility early in application development. By applying the accessibility best practices covered in this book developers can help their organizations rise to a whole new level of accessibility adherence innovation and inclusive design.
