Whether your IoT service is connecting cars, homes, appliances, wearable, cameras or other devices, one question hangs in the balance – how do you actually make money from this service? The ability to turn your IoT service into profit requires the ability to create a monetization strategy that is flexible, scalable and working for you in real-time. It must be a transparent, smoothly implemented strategy that all stakeholders – from customers to the board – will be able to understand and comprehend.
Oracle and Fujitsu have recently entered a partnership to push cloud computing solutions to Japanese businesses as well as their global subsidiaries. Oracle Cloud Application and Platform services, such as Database Cloud, will now be hosted on Fujitsu’s Japanese data centers.

In an era of unified IT, you can no longer afford to take a silo-based approach to monitoring and troubleshooting IT problems. It’s time for network engineers, server admins and application engineers to expand beyond their particular domains anddepartment-specific tools. It’s time to embrace a new, integrated approach to network and application monitoring that lets you view your entire IT infrastructure from a single console and resolve issues before they affect end users. It’s time for applications-aware network performance monitoring (AANPM).
Tapjoy’s data-driven business of serving 500 million global mobile users – or more than 1.5 million add engagements per day, a data volume of a 120 terabytes – runs with extreme efficiency.

Keeping pace with advancements in software delivery processes and tooling is taxing even for the most proficient organizations. Point tools, platforms, open source and the increasing adoption of private and public cloud services requires strong engineering rigor – all in the face of developer demands to use the tools of choice. As Agile has settled in as a mainstream practice, now DevOps has emerged as the next wave to improve software delivery speed and output. To make DevOps work, organizations must focus on what is most relevant to deliver value, reduce IT complexity, create more repeatable agile-based processes and leverage increasingly secure and stable, cloud-based infrastructure platforms.
IT planning is an imprecise science that allows IT experts to increase the flexibility and agility of IT environments while reducing the bottom line. In an ideal world, where time and budget are not limiting factors, upgrading an organization’s infrastructure happens on an ongoing, as-needed basis.
In the real world, IT administrators have to make decisions about the hardware they put in place and how to maintain acceptable service levels over the course of the equipment’s expected life. Most businesses do not have the luxury of replacing their current storage systems when IT demands outpace their current infrastructure.
Stakeholders need to monetize the benefits and ROI to make the organization’s change real. Join this IBM webcast for a discussion on monetizing key DevOps benefits and associated costs. We share a case study where cost benefit analysis frameworks were leveraged to justify DevOps ROI.
