2020. This number will continue to grow at a rapid pace for the next several
decades.
With major technology companies and startups seriously embracing IoT
strategies, now is the perfect time to attend @ThingsExpo in Silicon Valley.

Five Steps to Migrate Unisys Mainframes to AWS
By Craig Marble, Senior Director of Legacy Modernization, Astadia
Key Takeaways
- Cloud providers like AWS have proven to be a viable option for running
mainframe application workloads
- The most effective method to exploit the value of Unisys mainframe
applications and data is a transformative migration to modern systems
frameworks in AWS, reusing as much of the original application source as
possible.
- Execute a discover, design, modern, test, and implement cycle to move
mainframe applications.
- Some mainframe migration tools can keep existing code in place, but expect
to replace components and rethink data storage.
The Mainframe Conundrum
If you have a Unisys mainframe, you may be thinking that cloud computing
isn't an option. You'd like to take advantage of all that cloud computing
offers but don't think it's pos... (more)

Seven Essentials for a Top-Performing IT Help Desk
By Ujjwal Sood, product analyst, ManageEngine
The help desk forms the backbone of IT operations for many federal, state and
local government agencies. In fact, the cross-functional nature of its
operation means the help desk directly impacts productivity and is an
essential part of what enables an agency to meet its stakeholder needs.
However, owing to increasingly complex IT environments, managers struggle to
ensure that their help desks are operating at optimum efficiency. This
seven-point guide will help IT managers ensure their help desks deliver
exceptional service while maximizing productivity.
1. Create the right structure: Properly structuring an IT help desk can
greatly improve its efficiency. Organize help desks into multiple levels or
tiers. In a three-tier help desk, for example, tier 0 can be a self-serv... (more)
Thanks to the plethora of communication and messaging apps available to the
average user, unified communications (UC) is becoming more important than
ever before. UC is a set of products and services designed to give employees
a uniform communications experience, integrating different apps and channels
to a singular point of interaction. For example, UC might allow a transcript
of a voicemail to be delivered to a recipient’s email, enabling a central
communication location that comprises multiple mediums at once.
Overall, UC has the ability to help companies perform more efficiently,
boosting productivity, profitability, and even employee morale. However, UC
technology is always evolving, and if you want to stay informed with the
latest in the industry, you need to be aware of the latest trends.

I'm told that it has been 21 years since Scrum became public when Jeff
Sutherland and I presented it at an Object-Oriented Programming, Systems,
Languages & Applications (OOPSLA) workshop in Austin, TX, in October of 1995.
Time sure does fly. Things mature. I'm still in the same building and at the
same company where I first formulated Scrum.[1] Initially nobody knew of
Scrum, yet it is now an open source body of knowledge translated into more
than 30 languages.[2] People use Scrum worldwide for developing software and
other uses I never anticipated.[3]
Scrum was born and initially used by Jeff and me to meet market demand at our
respective companies. After we made Scrum public in 1996 and writing my paper
SCRUM Development Process, we started trying Scrum publicly, in companies
with critical needs that were willing to try anything. The first organization
where we e... (more)
