Slashdot Media is the global leader in professional technology communities and reaches a worldwide audience of over 42 million IT professionals and enthusiasts.

As the consumerization of IT accelerates, healthcare and insurance organizations are being challenged to adopt hybrid mobile solutions that let users, patients, providers and partners access – and enter – business critical information from an ever-increasing range of mobile devices. Who is driving mobile adoption, and how can your organization ensure it will be competitive?
 
This TechBytes series, presented by Slashdot Media and sponsored by IBM will look at three industries that are leading the mobility parade: Finance and banking, retail and hospitality, and healthcare and insurance. Each TechBytes segment will focus on one of these key industries, and industry experts will address key questions including:

-           What market trends are shaping how mobility is being employed?
-           Are new user interface models required for an increasingly millennial user base?
-           Can BYOD work in highly regulated industries like healthcare?
-           How can organizations accelerate their mobile adoption?
-           What are the most important considerations for embracing mobility
-           Can mobile solutions truly be secure?

Driving Mobile Adoption for a Multichannel Retail and Hospitality World

Today, consumerization of IT drives user expectations for new apps, richer analytics and support for every device under the sun, IT teams are under increasing pressure to deliver better than “five nines” for virtually every application imaginable, and to do so under a data deluge that shows no signs of abating. And the need is real; The Ponemon Institute estimates the average outage lasts about 90 minutes and costs $450,000!

Attend this TechBytes series, presented by Slashdot Media and sponsored by IBM to learn how enterprises of all kinds are taking advantage of the latest in middleware tools to increase business agility, accelerate decision-making, and embrace hybrid environments to meet increasing user demand while reducing operating costs overall.  Attendees will learn:

- How to leverage analytics to increase efficiency while improving reliability
- Benefits of becoming proactive rather than firefighting application performance issues
- How to apply cognitive predictive analytics to stop costly IT outages before they start.
- Where to start when beginning to leverage ITSM in your environment
- Why Telcos and other companies providing “dial-tone” reliability are utilizing advanced analytics tools in their ITSM portfolio to ensure uptime for even the most dynamic network infrastructure

Thriving in a Hybrid IT Environment: Turning Data into Insight into Action

Chances are you’ve already virtualized many – if not most – of your server workloads to get the most out of every IT hardware dollar. But as more companies adopt hybrid cloud and container based technologies, what role will virtualization play? 

Is virtualization the new ‘checkbox’ for IT deployments, how does the evolution of virtualization, infrastructure and usage models impact your IT environment?
 
At this 3 part TechBytes series we will cover
•What role virtualization will provide in future systems?
•How virtualization is evolving and what it means to you
•What you should do now to plan for coming changes and new demands

By next year over half of all US companies will formally support BYOD, bringing on the challenge of securing data and applications on devices that may often be in the hands malicious users, or worse – teenagers looking to win a game of Pokémon Go with mom’s work iPhone. And, thanks to the consumerization of IT, mobile users increasingly expect the same smooth user experience with business applications that is provided by popular games and consumer applications.
 
Fortunately, increased mobility and the bring your own device explosion don’t always add up to increased security challenges and UI/UX struggles.  This Tech Byte series will look at the most important considerations when planning a mobile strategy – from application development platform to security and governance to user interface guidelines, and present best practices that businesses of all kinds can use to help ensure a successful shift towards a mobile-first enterprise.
