whitepaper Is Your Data Dirty?: (And Does That Matter?)2006-09-01 01:00:13 Accenture
  Dirty data - inaccurate, redundant, or outdated information - has been the bane of many organizations struggling to use information for higher performance. Yet corporate-wide data cleansing seems so overwhelming that many businesses delay or defer even trying. Can a company live with dirty data? Yes, and no. Of course data quality matters. But dirty data isn't always bad - at least not equally bad. Stated another way, not all information has to be equally clean or has to be cleansed at the same time.

whitepaper Reduce the Risk of Costly Data Breaches: Three Pillars of Data Protection2007-01-09 07:31:50 Iron Mountain Digital (LiveVault)
  There are numerous regulations that govern the protection of private, personal and confidential data regardless of whether the data resides on a secure mainframe computer, desktop PC or mobile device such as a laptop PC. Legislative requirements to disclose lost data incidents are expensive and can negatively affect a corporation's reputation.

Iron Mountain Digital advocates Three Pillars of Data Protection serve as a guide for customers establishing a PC security program:
  • Policy Management and Control
  • Threat Monitoring and Response
  • Data Backup and Restoration
This paper provides an overview of PC encryption, the elements beyond encryption that are necessary for a complete data protection solution, and how Iron Mountain Digital's Data Defense and Connected® Backup/PC solutions address the Three Pillars of Data Protection.

whitepaper 6th Sense Metric Overview2006-07-27 09:58:42 6th Sense Analytics
  The vision of 6th Sense Analytics is to provide developers with a level of software performance data and feedback this is unheard of. It will empower any software development effort to be inquisitive, insightful, informed, and armed with data that illustrates the dynamics of the individual, team and organization's development capabilities. The roots of the company's approach began with the notion of engineer data collection and personal development processes introduced by the Software Engineering Institute's Personal Software Process (PSP). The PSP is heavily focused on finely granular software development performance and process metrics, capturing lines of code produced, inspected, compiled and tested at the individual level, and quality data - defects found via inspections, defects per phase and improvement trending.   
whitepaper Enterprise Information Management: Tentative Past, Promising Future - Why EIM Is Finally Becoming a Reality2007-01-01 01:00:30 Business Objects
  At the most rudimentary level, Enterprise Information Management (EIM) is exactly what the words that comprise the acronym mean: managing critical business information at an enterprise level. While this may appear to be little more than a statement of the obvious, it is the characteristics of EIM that serve to delineate successful implementations from the majority. Without a comprehensive EIM strategy, the majority of organizations will continue to struggle with an IT environment hallmarked by poor (or at least suspect) data quality, little or no metadata management, coordination and synchronization of master data, and - in general - little chance of evolving architecturally for years to come.   
whitepaper Ventana Research Study - Open Source Business Intelligence: Ready to Play in the Big Leagues2007-01-04 08:59:33 JasperSoft
  This concise white paper explores lessons learned from real-world deployments of open source Business Intelligence (BI) solutions. The report then examines best practices for moving forward with this less costly, more flexible alternative to BI proprietary technologies.

Based on a Ventana Research survey of hundreds of IT and business executives, the report identifies key issues, opportunities, and risks involved in deploying open source BI. Readers can learn what their peers are achieving - and what they plan to do next - with both operational and strategic open source BI implementations.

Finally, this report examines key variables and success factors in BI deployment, including project size, existing technical environment, cost of ownership, upgradeability, richness of functionality, vendor services, co-existence with commercial BI software, and side benefits of deployment. The report also outlines evaluation criteria and adoption strategies. 		  
whitepaper Oracle and Java Performance Management: An Executive View2006-04-01 Confio Software
  This Confio white paper posits that database administrators need to be more concerned about Wait-Time than any other performance metric as they strive to meet stringent Service Level Agreements (SLAs). It builds a compelling case for using time-based analysis to rapidly identify the root causes of performance bottlenecks, and introduces Igniter Suite, a multi-layer performance analysis solution that combines Confio's Ignite for Oracle and Ignite for Java software, giving DBAs powerful time-based analysis at both the database and application layers. Download this informative paper to learn more about the benefits of focusing on Wait-Time to the exclusion of other, "largely meaningless event counter statistics."
