Application Lifecycle Management Track by Fariz Saracevic

The first in the set of track sessions at Innovate 2011 kick started with “Value of IBM Rational Collaboration lifecycle management solution”.

The track sessioned by Fariz gave an overview of Application Lifecycle Management and Rational Collaboration Lifecycle Management.  Fariz emphasized that Software today drives innovation for a smarter planet and exists everywhere.

The defining challenge though is managing “Systems of Systems”, over the period of time the complexity of Software has increased.  Which can be simplified by defining a well etched development lifecycle.

The first step in the process is to Decide, then Develop and then finally deploy.

Collaboration Lifecycle Management- Improve productivity with an integrated ALM solution.

It optimizes your team through support of 5 ALM imperatives

Imperative 1: Real Time planning

Imperative 2: Lifecycle Traceability

Imperative 3: In-context collaboration

Imperative 4: Development intelligence

Imperative 5: Continuous Improvement

Innovate India Unveils with a Bang

After all, techies are  no less than a Rock Star

The unveiling ceremony of Innovate 2o11, caught my surprise as it just happened in a different way, a big way. They say people in the IT industry feel a little lazy during morning hours, and for sure a speech would further motivate them to carry laze rhythm through out.

An event like Innovate is about energizing and to pump in that energy shot in the vain, who else can be better than Radio One RJ Prithvi. The vibrant introduction by Prithvi, was more than cheer the audience up, however to get them on the floor Innovate’s first performance had to be  a Rock Show with the rock band Thermal and a Quarter at their rocking best… New for an IT conference, but desperately needed. After all, techies are  no less than a Rock Star

A Flashmob with Thermal and a Quarter kickstarting the IT conference,was the whisper inside and then the volume pumped up. Taking people off their seats, the vocals compelled people to flock near the stage and do the morning “head bang”. Now that’s the way to Kick start the 7th edition of  Rational conference.

Check out the Rock show images on Rational India Facebook Page
