BOSTON, MA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/12/12 -- Aberdeen Group, a Harte-Hanks Company (NYSE: HHS), today announced the publication of new research reports from its IT Infrastructure/Virtualization and Cloud, Enterprise Mobility and Communications, Retail and Consumer Markets, and Business Intellligence (BI) research practices.
"Managed Reporting: Are Your Managers Worth $134?," prepared by David White, Senior Analyst for the Aberdeen Group Business Intelligence research practice, states that from an end-user's perspective, business intelligence (BI) comes in three broad classes: Managed reporting, interactive dashboards, and visual data discovery. Managed reporting is the foundational layer and first step in executing a comprehensive BI strategy. With basic management information needs addressed through managed reporting, many companies move on to explore more sophisticated, complementary solutions. This analyst insight, based on data collected in two surveys into business intelligence, explores the benefits (and costs) of adopting BI in the form of managed reporting. In addition, it highlights the steps that firms can take to optimize their deployments, and prepare the ground for future use of dashboards and visual data discovery tools.

"Testing...One, Two, Three, Steps to Better Application Performance," authored by Jim Rapoza, Senior Research Analyst for the Aberdeen Networking and Application Performance research practice, reports on the importance of performance and functionality testing when it comes to having high quality applications. This report looks at how, through proper testing, organizations can ensure that their applications will run properly, will be optimized for high-traffic situations, will have good usability on a variety of devices and will offer users an excellent user experience. Testing ensures all of this can happen before the application deploys, rather than finding out that there is a problem after end-users encounter it.

"Control Video, Social, and Recreational Applications and Don't Let them Control Your Network," also authored by Jim Rapoza, examines how companies manage the challenge that social systems and video presents to network and internet infrastructure, and how businesses successfully leverage application level network controls to limit the effect that these social applications have on the performance and reliability of business critical applications. Organizations that implement application-level controls to manage application use, including social networking, video, and rich media, gain significant benefits in overall application performance.

Apr. 24, 2018 09:30 PM EDT Reads: 22,764 | By Elizabeth White  IoT is rapidly becoming mainstream as more and more investments are made into the platforms and technology. As this movement continues to expand and gain momentum it creates a massive wall of noise that can be difficult to sift through. Unfortunately, this inevitably makes IoT less approachable for people to get started with and can hamper efforts to integrate this key technology into your own portfolio. There are so many connected products already in place today with many hundreds more on the h... Apr. 24, 2018 09:15 PM EDT Reads: 1,294 | By Pat Romanski  When shopping for a new data processing platform for IoT solutions, many development teams want to be able to test-drive options before making a choice. Yet when evaluating an IoT solution, it’s simply not feasible to do so at scale with physical devices. Building a sensor simulator is the next best choice; however, generating a realistic simulation at very high TPS with ease of configurability is a formidable challenge. When dealing with multiple application or transport protocols, you would be...

Many organizations monitor internal usage of the Big Data eco-system using a set of alerts. This is not a scalable process given the increase in the number of alerts with the accelerating growth in data volume and user base. Organizations are increasingly leveraging machine learning to monitor only those data elements that are sensitive and critical, autonomously establish monitoring policies, and to detect...
