Because I was the Acting CTO for eHarmony at it's start, I quite often get introduced to people who have an idea for a startup company that is based on some kind of matching algorithm. They describe the company as the eHarmony of careers, clothes, jobs, college, tutoring services, doctors, service companies, investments, etc. In fact, you can get a good idea of these various things by just searching on Google for "eHarmony of" startup.

As I mentioned in yesterday’s post , two SailPoint customers presented case studies last Wednesday at the Gartner IAM Summit. Bravely taking on the 8 a.m. time slot (which was well attended for the early hour) was Andy Weeks, Risk and Compliance Manager for Humana. Andy gave a very compelling overview of Humana’s IAM journey over the past five years, using the famous Gartner Hype Cycle as a framework.

Before all the laws of software , before the purpose of software , before the science of software design itself , there is a singular fact that determines the success or failure of a software developer. This fact makes the difference between the senior engineer who can seem to pick up new languages in a day and the junior developer who struggles for ten years just to get a paycheck, programming other people’s designs and never improving enough to get a promotion.

Next week, I’ll be attending the Gartner IAM Summit in San Diego. It’s safe to assume that the state of the IAM/IdM market will be top of mind at the conference, so I thought I’d share my observations: Despite tightened budgets during 2009, we are seeing strong demand for identity governance. Companies continue to invest in strengthening controls around access to their critical applications and data.

I've known Farida for quite a while. Maybe ten years. She is a go to person for me when I have questions around technology or early stage marketing and branding. I hadn't talked to her in a while and then because of a presentation I did around Social Media for Service Professionals she and I reconnected. It has been fun to get to know her again. And I'm looking forward to more interaction now that she's blogging.

Up to this point in this series on Restructuring IT , we’ve looked at how IT has adopted an industrial model. IT has achieved scale, but at the cost of results, as is clear from the low rate of success of IT investments. We'll now take a look at how we can organize IT for results. Professional versus Industrial IT needs to reorganize for results, not scale.

Last week, the SailPoint crew gathered in force at the Gartner IAM Summit in beautiful San Diego. While the show was a bit smaller than last year’s event in Orlando, there were lots of opportunities for lively interaction with analysts, partners, and customers. One of the best aspects of shows like this is the high-quality conversations that happen everywhere – in the sessions, on the show floor, in restaurants and of course, the lobby bar!

The buzz around generative AI shows no sign of abating in the foreseeable future. Enterprise interest in the technology is high, and the market is expected to gain momentum as organizations move from prototypes to actual project deployments. Ultimately, the market will demand an extensive ecosystem, and tools will need to streamline data and model utilization and management across multiple environments.

DSLs In Action has been out for a month now in MEAP with the first 3 chapters being published. DSL is an emerging topic and I am getting quite some feedback from the readers who have already purchased the MEAP edition. Thanks for all the feedback. Writing a book also has lots of similarities with coding. Particularly the refactoring part. The second attempt to articulate a piece of thought is almost always better than the first attempt, much like coding.

Software is complex, which makes threats to the software supply chain more real every day. 64% of organizations have been impacted by a software supply chain attack and 60% of data breaches are due to unpatched software vulnerabilities.

I recently had a conversation with an pre-launch startup where they discussed how SEO was going to be really important for them. They went on to describe a fairly common type of site that has some original content, but not much. They are in a space where there is lots of search traffic, but they didn't have anything particularly interesting to say about how they were going to get ranked.

You know that sinking feeling. You’ve come up with a winning product strategy, everyone’s on board and energized, and you’re halfway down the path to execution only to have it submarined by something someone convinced your leadership was more strategic! It’s a scenario that’s all too familiar, and it exemplifies one of the biggest struggles with individual product strategies.
