Modernize Your Applications Through Novel Abstractions and Configurations
Most technology leaders, contemporary and from the hardware era, are
reshaping their businesses to do software. They hope to capture value from
emerging technologies such as IoT, SDN, and AI. Ultimately, irrespective of
the vertical, it is about deriving value from independent software
applications participating in an ecosystem as one comprehensive solution.
In his session at @ThingsExpo, Kausik Sridhar, founder and CTO of Pulzze
Systems, will discuss how given the magnitude of today's application
ecosystem, tweaking existing software to stitch various components together
leads to sub-optimal solutions. This definitely deserves a re-think, and
paves the way for a new breed of lightweight application servers that are
micro-services and DevOps ready!

How to Make Use of Serverless Compute Solutions for IoT Device Simulation
When shopping for a new data processing platform for IoT solutions, many
development teams want to be able to test-drive options before making a
choice. Yet when evaluating an IoT solution, it's simply not feasible to do
so at scale with physical devices. Building a sensor simulator is the next
best choice; however, generating a realistic simulation at very high TPS with
ease of configurability is a formidable challenge. When dealing with multiple
application or transport protocols, you would be looking at some significant
engineering investment.
On-demand, serverless computing enables developers to try out a fleet of
devices on IoT gateways with ease. With a sensor simulator built on top of
AWS Lambda, it's possible to elastically generate device sensors that report
their state to the cloud.... (more)
Cloud Evolution
In his Opening Keynote at 21st Cloud Expo, John Considine, General Manager of
IBM Cloud Infrastructure, will lead you through the exciting evolution of the
cloud. He'll look at this major disruption from the perspective of
technology, business models, and what this means for enterprises of all
sizes.
Speaker Bio
John Considine is General Manager of Cloud Infrastructure Services at IBM. In
that role he is responsible for leading IBM's public cloud infrastructure
including strategy, development, and offering management. To date, IBM has
launched more than 50 cloud data centers that span the globe. He has been

Enterprise IoT Has Created a New Economy
Enterprises have taken advantage of IoT to achieve important revenue and cost
advantages. What is less apparent is how incumbent enterprises operating at
scale have, following success with IoT, built analytic, operations management
and software development capabilities - ranging from autonomous vehicles to
manageable robotics installations. They have embraced these capabilities as
if they were Silicon Valley startups.
As a result, many firms employ new business models that place enormous
importance on software-based innovations. They require not only skilled
occupations, such as data analysts and DevOps professionals, with more
technical skills, but also middle-level employees with more software and
computing acumen. Both large and small firms operate differently.
These are the "green shoots" of a new economy. It is characteri... (more)

The ‘Known Unknown' of Big Data in IoT: How Big Will Your Data Grow and By
When?
IoT is at the core or many Digital Transformation initiatives with the goal
of re-inventing a company's business model. We all agree that collecting
relevant IoT data will result in massive amounts of data needing to be
stored. However, with the rapid development of IoT devices and ongoing
business model transformation, we are not able to predict the volume and
growth of IoT data. And with the lack of IoT history, traditional methods of
IT and infrastructure planning based on the past do not apply either.

Every time there’s a notable cybersecurity breach, someone (even me) writes
a comprehensive primer on the proper way to create “secure” passwords.
Lather, rinse, repeat. Until a few years ago, everyone (including me) based
their password advice on a 2003 paper from the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST), with the catchy title “NIST Special
Publication 800-63.” The paper recommended that passwords be cryptic,
contain special characters, and be as close to nonsense as possible.
I was in a camp I called “How to Make a Cryptic Password You Can Easily
Remember.” The short version was this: take a phrase you know, such as a
favorite quote from a movie, and use the first letter of each word. For
example, Sheriff Brody’s famous line from Jaws, “I think we’re gonna
need a bigger boat,” becomes [email protected] The trick was using Leet (a
technique where letters ... (more)
Business Cases and the Digital Transformation Trend
Digital innovation is the next big wave of business transformation based on
digital technologies of which IoT and Big Data are key components, For
example:
Business boundary innovation is a challenge to excavate third-party business
value using IoT and BigData, like Nest Business structure innovation may
propose re-building business structure from scratch, as Uber does in the
taxicab industry The social model innovation is also a big challenge to the
new social architecture with the design from the ground up of a data-driven
ecosystem, as Google promotes its self-driving car project
