Continuous Deployment makes software development and your deployment environment safe so anyone can commit code. Read about these and other advantages in this article.
I’ve been wondering for a few years now, why it’s so hard to get companies to prioritize the work that I feel is important. I mean, I’m telling you how to do it and you aren’t listening – don’t you want to build quality software?
Would you listen to that argument? I wouldn’t. Everybody has an opinion about how to do things, what makes one better than another?
Axis Announces New ARTPEC-5 Chip
Axis Communications has announced the next generation of its market-leading system-on-chip for network video cameras and video encoders. The new ARTPEC-5 is based on dual core multiprocessor architecture, features a larger cache size and higher memory throughput. More processing power and performance provide increased capabilities for intelligent video processing and video analytics applications.

The new ARTPEC-5 chip features support for the H.264 High Profile (HiP) video compression standard and high frame rate (60 fps) encoding in full HDTV resolution (1080p). This resembles twice the frame rate and resolution offered by conventional HDTV video surveillance solutions today. High frame rates allow for capturing quick movements in detail such as when license plates of fast moving vehicles need to be identified. With full HDTV resolution, large overview areas can be monitored without compromises on image detail as will be required when an incident occurs.

A Design for an Agile Cloud Management Platform
In the early part of 2013, EMC announced a new storage virtualization product called ViPR that delivers a software interface to block, object and HDFS storage services layered on heterogeneous storage. As part of that announcement there was an architectural discussion regarding how ViPR would be providing these services to applications that entails breaking out the design into two components: the control plane and the data plane.
The control plane provides common interfaces for provisioning, policy & management while the data plane provides interfaces for data access from applications. In separating out these two layers, EMC creates an architecture that is agile and enables new services to be added over time without impacting production services. Since ViPR is focused on storage, it will, unfortunately, never be expanded to encompass an entire cloud management stack. However, the architecture is interesting and aspects of it lend itself to building a best-of-breed cloud management platform.
Thinking About Enterprise Mobility, Digital Transformation and Doctrine
Last week I was in Europe speaking and teaching enterprise mobility and digital transformation strategies. I worked with several large multinational companies where I heard the same questions asked, “How do we convince our executives that we must change, and invest in change? How do we establish a culture of innovation, capable of winning in a world of digital transformation?” The change they were referring to had to do with the convergence of the physical world with the digital and its impact on markets. These changes are introducing new ways of selling, marketing, manufacturing and moving products in a digital world that is rapidly being transformed as a result of innovations in social, mobile, analytics and cloud technologies. We are seeing entire industries and marketplaces turned upside down as a result of these innovations. How can companies deal with all these changes at the pace required to remain competitive?
Seven Cloud Predictions for 2014
With the end of the year buzz around predictions, it’s hard not to join in the conversation. Our CenturyLink Cloud leadership team came together for a few predictions for the year head – and to show we are keepin’ it real, we scored last year’s predictions as well.
1. Enterprise-buyer demand fuels cloud consolidation. Well past the “dipping their toes in” stage with cloud-native apps, enterprises are now accelerating the migration of business-critical applications to the cloud. They will demand more complete, mature cloud solutions from the IT providers they already know and trust. This, in turn, will result in more cloud M&A activity as incumbent vendors solidify their cloud strategy and enhance offerings.
