The Robots Are Coming....

In the latter part of 2010 we saw an influx of robots small and lifesize. It looks like 2011 will be the year we see more robots in society, and not just for looks either. Here's a picture of NASA's robot, Robonaut 2, but you can call him R2 for short.

The Server Side Java Symposium

  

Most anticipated sessions Only 3 weeks remain until TheServerSide Java Symposium 2011, the first -- and most fiercely independent -- Java conference of the year, arrives in Las Vegas, March 16-18. We will soon reach capacity thanks to the overwhelming response received at the announcement of James Gosling, the “father of Java,” who will deliver our Day One Keynote address. TheServerSide Java Symposium is designed to arm you and your team with in-depth coverage of the latest frameworks, tools, architecture best practices, cloud computing advice and more to ensure you stay ahead of the pack on the latest trends in enterprise Java. See the full agenda, speaker lineup, and find out how to register today before the remaining seats sell out. Here are the most anticipated sessions of 2011 according to a recent survey of your peers: Core Java Track Keynote: Enterprise Java Platforms for the Next Decade Jim Knutson, IBM Websphere’s Java EE Architect Discover how and why enterprise Java platforms must evolve to meet the needs of complex enterprises, systems and collaborations. Don’t miss this essential session from one of today’s foremost Java EE architects as he reveals the next decade's programming model platform evolution, Java platform spin-offs, upcoming changes in hardware capabilities, and more. Developing a Message Driven Architecture with Spring Mark Fisher, Author of “Spring Integration in Action” and Engineer at VMware How do your applications support for eventing, messaging, and scheduling? In this session, Mark Fisher demonstrates how these features can deliver a platform for creating a lightweight, dynamic, message-driven architecture that builds upon the well-known Inversion of Control characteristics of Spring. Back to the Future with Java 7 Martijn Verburg, Consultant & Community Leader for Java and Open Source software Ben Evans, Technical Architect and Lead Application DeveloperWhat are the key, need-to-know features of Java 7? Why were there only 5 key features included in the final draft of Project Coin? Why wasn’t the Join & Fork framework included in Java 5, and why has it become so important all of a sudden to include it in Java 7? Martijn and Ben present the essential elements of Java 7 you should be leveraging right now, and highlight the features you must prepare for when Oracle comes out with a subsequent release in the near future. Test Smells in Your Code Base Lasse Koskela, Author of “Test Driven: Practical TDD and Acceptance TDD for Java Developers” Chances are there are anti-patterns in your project's test code. The problem is that you may not know they’re there. Join best-selling author Lasse Koskela as he explains the trend toward better production code (but not test code) and introduces the key test smells to look out for – along with what to do when you spot one. Cloud Track Keynote: Bringing Code to the Cloud and Back AgainRod Johnson, Creator of the Spring framework Mik Kersten, CEO of Tasktop Technologies and Creator of the Eclipse Mylyn open source project Cloud infrastructure is changing the game for both application deployment and lifecycle management. In this talk, Rod and Mik explore a turnkey approach that marries enterprise Java with cloud deployment and Agile/ALM, give an overview of new technologies at the intersection of these three areas, and demonstrate how they radically simplify the Java developer’s workday by creating a new level of connectivity between the team and the application. Visit the conference website to view the full agenda, speaker lineup and sign up now to attend. But hurry! Time is running out and seats are filling up fast.

Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 (webinar)

2011 Means Momentum for Exchange Server: What Will Your Move Be? 

Tony Redmond, a Microsoft® Most Valuable Professional (MVP) and author of
"Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Inside Out," Provides Insight and Advice.

2011 is a year of change and choice for organizations that depend on Exchange Server. Exchange is
mission-critical business infrastructure; as essential to the continuity of your business as electricity and telecommunications. Think back to the last time your organization lost email access.
Not a good scene, was it?  
So what’s ahead for Exchange Server?
Join Tony Redmond, one of the world’s leading Microsoft Exchange Server experts, as he shares predictions and practical advice for selecting, optimizing and protecting Exchange Server.

Marathon Technologies Microsoft MVP Series Webinar:
“Microsoft Exchange Server: Predictions, Practicalities and Availability”
Date: Thursday, February 24th
Time: 11 a.m. ET

Register For Our Webinar

Tony will elaborate on four major Exchange Server developments in 2011:

• Migration. Mainstream support for Exchange 2003, the majority of the Exchange installed base, ended in 2009. Do you move to Exchange 2010? And when? What are the trade-offs?
• Refresh. Migrations always mean some refreshes, but Exchange 2010 will require more than previous versions, including potentially significant core infrastructure optimization. What else should you think about when upgrading front- and back-end servers, OS and storage?
• Virtualization goes mainstream. Consolidation is only the beginning. Where do you start?
• Availability is a key business requirement. What are the benefits of the Database Availability Group (DAG)? What other steps can you take to fully-protect Exchange Server?

Eliminate Unplanned Exchange Server Downtime No measure of Exchange performance is more important than availability. Exchange 2010 provides better native availability options than earlier versions, but DAG addresses mailbox database availability only. There’s much more to consider. A majority of the Exchange installed base are on 2003 which has even more limited availability features. Version upgrade presents the chance to improve Exchange Server availability. Why settle for usually available when you can achieve continuous, uninterrupted availability? 

Upgrading to Exchange 2010? Now is the time to upgrade availability. 

Already running Exchange 2010? Complement DAG with broader system protection.

Social Media Risks: Mitigate Data Loss, Compliance and Discovery Dangers

Webinar March 9: Social Media Risks in the Enterprise »

With the growing use of social media, savvy organizations are examining their policies around social media usage, content, and even retention. More than half simply block access to popular social media sites altogether, sacrificing the many business benefits of social media in the interests of security.

But the proper combination of policy and technology can help you take advantage of social media while preventing improper exposure of private, confidential and regulated information and securely archiving social media content for electronic discovery.
Attend Social Media Risks in the Enterprise: Mitigating Data Loss, Compliance and Discovery Dangers to learn:

• How social media content can be made quickly accessible for legal discovery and regulatory compliance purposes
• How the power of the cloud can be used to identify and apply policy to social media content
• How you can proactively detect, block or archive business-relevant social media content
• How your organization can manage social media content in compliance with regulations such as FINRA and HIPAA

The conference brings corporate IT decision makers together with the industry's vendors, analysts and consultants to focus on the issues central to enterprise networks and communications. This year keynotes will be delivered from the top executives at Avaya, Cisco, HP, Microsoft and Skype.

The conference program will offer 40+ sessions, and it covers the full range of platforms, services and applications that comprise modern communications and collaboration systems. There also will be featured sessions covering such critical issues as:

• UC in 2011: Myths, Realities and What Comes Next?
• What's Next for the Mobile Enterprise?
• Is There a New Model for Enterprise Communications & Collaboration?
• Will the Cloud Take Over Enterprise Communications?

New this year is our Strategies Summit, two days of high-level perspective aimed at helping CIOs/VPs and other high-level enterprise decision-makers assess their options for using communications and collaboration to transform their business.

The Enterprise Connect Exhibition is unique and is the only place you'll find all of the leading equipment, software and service providers in one location.
