Rational Publishing Engine is a software tool that automates document generation from a variety of data sources to reduce risks, costs, and inconsistencies associated with manual documentation processes. It generates high-quality, compliant documents in minutes using templates. This ensures accurate, up-to-date information and allows engineers to focus on engineering rather than formatting. The tool accesses data from various IBM software like DOORS, ClearCase, and Rhapsody to link requirements to models and generate customized documents while maintaining corporate branding standards and legal requirements.
Improve Predictability & Efficiency with Kanban Metrics using IBM Rational In...Marc Nehme
This presentation discusses IBM Rational Insight and how it was leveraged to provide reports with metrics supporting the adoption of the Kanban Method, by teams using IBM Rational Team Concert.
ERP software is good for reconciling financials, creating sales forecasts, maintaining order volumes and increasing customer satisfaction. Yes, it can be done using 4-5 different platforms, but managing the data in one place is easier than in several places.
Abstract - Various aspects of three proposed architectures for distributed software are examined. A Crucial need to
create an ideal model for optimal architecture which meets the needs of the organization for flexibility, extensibility
and integration, to fulfill exhaustive performance for potential talents processes and opportunities in the corporations
a permanent and ongoing need. The excellence of the proposed architecture is demonstrated by presenting a rigor scenario based proof of adaptively and compatibility of the architecture in cases of merging and varying organizations, where the whole structure of hierarchies is revised.

Webcast Presentation - "Build an App for That": Empowering Business Developer...GRUC
BlueMix is a PaaS that enable developers to deploy applications based on standard platforms (JEE, Node.js, Ruby ...) with ease. This eliminates the need to install and deploy an OS, platform, Middleware etc.
Learn how a business developer (a person that may not be able to develop an application soup to nuts) can use RapidApps to develop and deploy web/mobile application to the cloud with ease. Sheehan Anderson, Advisory Software Engineer, IBM, demonstrates how to build a typical situational app in a matter of minutes, run a website and connect to it from your browser or mobile device.
With BlueMix and RapidApps, anyone can "build an app" to solve their business needs.
Smarter Documentation: Shedding Light on the Black Box of Reporting DataKelly Raposo
Developing reports to make sense of project data can be a difficult task. IBM’s reporting tools enable users to report on the data from Rational Team Concert, Rational Quality Manager, and Rational Requirements Composer, but our clients often have trouble determining how to get the right data into the right reports. Through a collaborative effort between our clients and several Rational teams (incl. Support, Development, User Experience and Documentation), we explored the challenges and developed a plan to get all the necessary information into our users’ hands. Using tools to automate documentation of the data models, collect and expose SME knowledge about the product REST APIs, and filter the information based on goals, the team delivered a full set of guidance and reference material in the Information Centres that sheds some light on the black box of data. Ongoing efforts will connect the pieces using linked data, allowing fast and easy exploration of the data relationships.
Unifying the Silos: Optimize your Data Pipeline for Analytics and AIDataWorks Summit
Discover how to break apart the modern data analytics workflow to focus on the data challenges across different phases of the analytics and AI lifecycle. By taking an end-to-end data pipeline view while adopting storage technologies for AI and analytics, your organization can reduce costs, modernize your data strategy and improve data governance. By anticipating how Hadoop, Spark, Tensorflow, Caffe and traditional analytics like SAS can share data, IT departments and data science practitioners can not only coexist, but also speed time to insight. You'll also learn the tangible benefits of a reference architecture using real-world installations that span proprietary and open source frameworks.
Turn data into intelligence: Uncover insights. Take actionVincent Kwon
Spreadsheets alone aren’t the answer to your reporting, analysis and planning problems. If you want to compete against big enterprises with big budgets, you need to use proper tools that extend the value of what you have and deliver a more insightful and accurate view of the business. With the right analytics solution, you can do just that. Cognos Express provides a complete reporting, analysis and planning solution for midsized organisations. This session will demonstrate how this solution can integrate into existing infrastructure and provide the dashboards, reports, forecasts and budgets your organisations needs. All of this with minimal implementation and at an affordable cost.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
