The document discusses the importance of website speed, noting that sites can lose significant percentages of traffic and bounce rates as load times increase from 100ms to 3 seconds. It also notes that 85% of mobile users expect similar response times to desktop. Two graphics show the simplified process of a mobile vs desktop web request, with mobile requiring more steps through various towers. The document asks how to get load times down to 1 second and suggests techniques like responsive design combined with server-side changes and prioritizing loading above-the-fold content.

Every major brand has a web presence that may include product sites, a corporate site, apps and social media. As their customers and constituents transition to mobile consumption of brand assets organizations find they need to rebuild their web sites to be more usable, or responsive, in a variety of contexts. The two main approaches to achieve this are to either redevelop the site and architecture from the ground up, or to responsively retrofit the site over time. Each approach has benefits and drawbacks. This webinar will explain the features and benefits of each and make contingent recommendations for choosing between the two. Topics to be covered include: • Understanding Responsive Design • The Customer’s Multi-device Experience • Ground Up Responsive Redesign: Process and Benefits • Responsive Retrofitting: Process and Benefits • How to decide between ground-up and responsive retrofitting

The document summarizes a presentation on reactive programming given by Steven Pember and David Fox of Cantina. It discusses what reactive programming is, the four traits of reactive systems according to the Reactive Manifesto (responsiveness, resilience, elasticity, and message-driven), and reactive technologies like Akka and Spray. It also covers actor models, how actors work, supervision strategies in Akka, and promises and futures.
Lean enterprises focus on building products that solve urgent customer problems through a process of formulating hypotheses about customer needs, building minimum viable products to test those hypotheses, and using data from real-world tests to evaluate and evolve their ideas. Key questions addressed include identifying the problem being solved, why the proposed solution is better than alternatives, who the target customer is, and how to effectively reach and build a business serving that customer through iterative development that prioritizes learning from tests with real customers.
Content strategy is about planning for the creation, publication, and governance of useful content to engage users and businesses. It aims to provide user parity, content portability, and put content first. An effective content strategy establishes structure first and delivers outcomes like institutional knowledge, a repeatable content method, and adaptable content. It involves defining goals, messages, an evaluation framework, page tables, and an editorial calendar to optimize engagement, communication, and measurement across changing contexts.
Domain Driven Design (DDD) is an approach to software development that models the problem domain using concepts and language from the real world. It recognizes that real businesses have multiple departments that communicate by sending messages, rather than being monolithic. By separating responsibilities into bounded contexts like different departments, complexity is reduced. This also allows the system to scale more easily. DDD uses the "ubiquitous language" of the domain or business to model it, rather than using only technical terms that developers understand. The benefits include gaining a useful model of the domain, refined definitions, domain experts contributing to design, improved user experience, clean boundaries, better enterprise architecture, agile modeling, and new strategic and tactical tools.
The document discusses designing connected experiences by delivering digital content and services across different contexts, devices, and environments to provide a continuous experience for users. This is done to maximize convenience by allowing people to easily access content and services regardless of their context, device, location, activity, or other factors through a seamless experience. Ensuring continuity is the goal so users feel connected regardless of changes in these variables.

Six months into 2024, and it is clear the privacy ecosystem takes no days off!! Regulators continue to implement and enforce new regulations, businesses strive to meet requirements, and technology advances like AI have privacy professionals scratching their heads about managing risk. What can we learn about the first six months of data privacy trends and events in 2024? How should this inform your privacy program management for the rest of the year? Join TrustArc, Goodwin, and Snyk privacy experts as they discuss the changes we’ve seen in the first half of 2024 and gain insight into the concrete, actionable steps you can take to up-level your privacy program in the second half of the year. This webinar will review: - Key changes to privacy regulations in 2024 - Key themes in privacy and data governance in 2024 - How to maximize your privacy program in the second half of 2024
If you’ve ever had to analyze a map or GPS data, chances are you’ve encountered and even worked with coordinate systems. As historical data continually updates through GPS, understanding coordinate systems is increasingly crucial. However, not everyone knows why they exist or how to effectively use them for data-driven insights. During this webinar, you’ll learn exactly what coordinate systems are and how you can use FME to maintain and transform your data’s coordinate systems in an easy-to-digest way, accurately representing the geographical space that it exists within. During this webinar, you will have the chance to: - Enhance Your Understanding: Gain a clear overview of what coordinate systems are and their value - Learn Practical Applications: Why we need datams and projections, plus units between coordinate systems - Maximize with FME: Understand how FME handles coordinate systems, including a brief summary of the 3 main reprojectors - Custom Coordinate Systems: Learn how to work with FME and coordinate systems beyond what is natively supported - Look Ahead: Gain insights into where FME is headed with coordinate systems in the future Don’t miss the opportunity to improve the value you receive from your coordinate system data, ultimately allowing you to streamline your data analysis and maximize your time. See you there!
