Compuware on Monday announced a PHP deep transaction management solution. With Deep Transaction Management for PHP, Compuware APM now provides a solution that fully combines user experience management (UEM), web-server visibility, deep-dive into PHP, database access and external calls. For the 39 percent of websites using PHP, the solution cuts through complexity and provides full application visibility from a browser-click to the database and back, for all transactions, in real-time 24×7.
Compuware APM provides out-of-the-box advanced support for popular PHP frameworks including Zend and visibility into MySQL databases. It provides the broadest coverage to include other backend systems such as Java, .NET, C/C++, Big Data, MQ, Message Broker and the mainframe. Out-of-the-box dashboards instantly tell users if something is amiss. Advanced automation with one-click to root cause provides rapid time-to-value. All the application lifecycle stakeholders – business, operations, QA and development – can ensure that their business-critical, revenue-generating applications are responsive and provide a superior end-user experience.

Book Excerpt | The New World of Work: From the Cube to the Cloud – Part 2
It may be terrifying for those caught in the vortex between the old and the new way of work. Most professionals earned the right degrees, responded to the demands of their professions, learned the intricacies of their industries and were rewarded under the old system. It feels like a massive betrayal that an entire system is falling away.
The truth is that the cube was moved in part by a new breed of professional. They are skilled and passionate global workers who want the freedom to choose the type of work, rather than choosing a job based on its proximity to their homes. Rather than being hindered by location, they are able to compete based on talent and passion. While most of us were sleeping, they unknowingly leveraged cloud and mobile technology and created the New World of Work. And it was their passion for work, rather than some indiscreet evil force, that caused work to seep across boundaries and find its way to this new breed of talent.
Let this chapter be a call to action for those most affected by the New World of Work. Professionals need to reinvent themselves in order to compete in the New World of Work. Conversely, companies need to wake up to the reality that competing for the best talent locally will soon be a thing of the past. The best person for a job no longer lives within a fifty-mile radius of your corporation.
Cloud Expo New York: Five Secrets to Cloud Cost Control
There are five essential tools and processes required to manage costs in the cloud.
In his session at the 12th International Cloud Expo, Greg Arnette, Founder & CTO of Sonian, will show how by using these tools, the cloud can be more cost-effective and reliable than traditional co-located services – but only if the right upfront planning and long-term strategies are cemented at the beginning of the project.
Greg Arnette is Founder & CTO of the cloud archiving company, Sonian. He has been a messaging, collaboration, Internet, and networking expert for over 15 years and blogs at: www.gregarnette.com. He also founded two previous technology companies.
Deploying Change and Release Management Successfully
Over the last few years, increased reliance on IT systems has meant that Change and Release Management has made its way to the forefront of major organizations. However, as far as the end-user base goes, Change and Release can sink into the subconscious as a simple-to-use to-do list, which often conceals the complex processes performed by IT staff. Unfortunately, good Change and Release Management isn’t that simple and most projects that support it can only be implemented with difficulty. If business users knew the reality of what goes on when they report a computer error, their perception may be very different. Their opinion also could help make processes better in the future and seeing how the technology works may alter perceptions of Change and Release Management being a walk in the park.
Cloud Expo New York: Building the Case for a Cloud-Based Government
The US Government, as well as governments around the world, is looking to invest heavily in cloud computing. The cloud promises a lot of efficiencies and cost savings but it also presents a new revolutionary way to approach citizen services.
In his session at the 12th International Cloud Expo, Majed Saadi, Director of the Cloud Computing Practice at SRA International, will offers insight into how cloud computing coupled with other technical advancements in mobility and security are changing government IT organizations. He will also provide general guidance and best practices for developing practical and pragmatic cloud strategies.
A Love Story: Devices and Cloud – Perfect Together
We’ve heard about Google Glasses. And we’ve heard about Apple iWatch. And yes, we’ve heard about people embedding cellphones into shoes [1]. Once again, the term “wearable computing” is becoming a hot topic in news and literatures. Some have even announced that the age of wearable technology is here [2]. The world is surely changing fast. Aren’t we still debating who makes the best smartphones and the best tablets? What’s going on here?
The foreseeable booming of wearable computing is just another chapter of the unstoppable fusion process between cyber space and reality. Eventually, machine computing will become ubiquitous, and the boundary between human bodies and devices will fade away. This is a vision shared by many scientists, innovators, entrepreneurs and Hollywood writers. It’s becoming a reality faster than we might have expected. Devices will no longer be just peripheral augmentations, but be inextricably intertwined with human lives.
Engineers Unplugged
Last summer, I was having lunch with my friend Amy Lewis (@CommsNinja) and we were discussing some ideas about how to better engage the Cloud Computing technology communities. As a whole, there is quite a bit of change happening in this space (technology, market dynamics, business models) and it can be difficult for people to keep up with all that’s going on. I don’t recall all the details of that lunch, but the central idea was that it would be interesting if we could capture the passion and insight that happens when technologists get together around a whiteboard and talk shop.
Needless to say, a few months later, Amy took her network connections and social media prowess and turned that initial idea into a very cool series of videos called «Engineers Unplugged». It’s now moved into Season 2 and covers topics from Cloud Computing to Data Center design to Networking to Virtualization and everything in between. And more impressive than the technology breadth is the cast of ubergeeks that share their knowledge on the shows. I’ve been lucky enough to be on two episodes (below), but luckily most of the technology discussions are much more interesting than my sessions.

Cloud Computing Is Simplifying Things
“You need two groups when dealing with cloud compliance,” explained Rob LaMear IV, CEO and Founder of Fpweb.net, in this exclusive Q&A with Cloud Expo Conference Chair Jeremy Geelan. “First,” LaMear continued, “you need a provider that is willing to operate transparently and work with you and your auditors. Most seasoned providers are well aware of this symbiotic relationship and are open to getting it out in the open early.”
Cloud Computing Journal: The move to cloud isn’t about saving money, it is about saving time. – Agree or disagree?
Rob LaMear: Agree. Time is money. Focusing your team on strategic initiatives gives you a competitive advantage. You get to market faster and can deliver something truly special before your competitors. First one to market typically owns 70–80% of the market share. Think Apple.
