Integrated Project Lifecycle Modeling: IBM Rational and SEER by Galorath
January 23rd, 2008 - 12pm EST - sponsored by Galorath

Webinar Description:
Imagine a solution that would enable you to determine with 90% accuracy the actual cost and delivery date for your software project.

Today's webinar will introduce you to the concept of software modeling and how it can be employed with design and portfoilio management tools to achieve Integrated Software Lifecycle Planning. As you are probably somewhat familiar with IBM Rational solutions, we will begin the webinar with a discussion of project estimation methodologies, beginning with why they tend to be so prone to error. Next up will be a discussion of best practices, including a 10-Step Process for improving the accuracy and reliability of project estimates. From here we will explain and demonstrate how solutions like SEER by Galorath can automate project estimates and manage project progress, and how - together with IBM Rational RSx and RPM, they define and support

Improving ClearCase scalability with NetApp storage
April 9, 2008 - 12pm EST - sponsored by NetApp

Webinar Description:
NetApp FAS storage and IBM N series storage help IBM Rational ClearCase customers increase scalability and simplify infrastructure by providing fast, reliable VOB and View storage. NetApp systems support both NFS and CIFS (SMB) protocols natively, which can deliver simplified management and in many cases faster VOB access than running Samba on the ClearCase server.

Innovative technology makes the storage easy to expand as ClearCase repositories grow, protects against disk failures, and delivers up to 99.999% storage availability to maximize ClearCase up time. Built-in snapshot technology allows for instant backups and rapid restores of VOBs or Views in case of data deletion or corruption. Simple, array-based mirroring can replicate the entire ClearCase repository to a remote location to support disaster recovery.

Metrics that Matter with CAST Software
June 18, 2008 - 12pm EST - sponsored by CAST Software

Webinar Description:
Good decisions rely on accurate information. Without knowing where the greatest risks to critical applications lie, decisions can only be made based on "best guess" analysis. Metrics are needed to analyze and track the quality of the IT software product, guiding development and supporting resource allocation.

Learn about the "metrics that matter" for technical quality that can help organizations to:

  • Increase the manager's level of visibility into the quality of their most important applications through Key Performance Indicators and enable fact-based sourcing decisions.
  • Reduce application risks associated with production and performance problems by monitoring and steering ongoing application development activities carried out by offshore and/or in-house teams.
  • Accelerate application delivery to the business as a result of a more productive approach to development, while reducing operating costs.
This webinar is ideal for PMO professionals, QA managers, project managers, senior architects, CTOs and overall managers of critical business applications.
