Groundswell Architecture Community November Session

Please join the Groundswell Architecture Community for our November session on Thursday, November 21, 2013 from 4:30 - 6:30 pm at Groundswell's head office. Register today!
 

Our November session will focus on two topics:

Information Systems Security Architecture: Goals, Principles & Business Value  
Victor Revenko, Groundswell

Information System Security Architecture can help avoid major pitfalls and and even failures surrounding system functionality. It provides recommendations on security mechanisms and controls to be built into the system architecture, levels of assurance the system requires, and security requirements to the system’s environment. This session will discuss the:

  • Goals of Information Systems Security
  • Difference between Functional and Security Architectures views
  • Security Architecture design principles
  • Place of Security Architecture in SDLC
  • Strategy of implementing and managing security controls
  • Security breaches statistics from 2012

 

Event Processing and Operational Intelligence 
Nelson Petracek, Informatica

Organizations today are realizing that their traditional BI solutions must be augmented with real-time operational intelligence in order to identify business opportunities or threats in a timely, proactive manner.  Key business events often lose their value over time, and thus it is important to process these events as soon as possible in order to derive their maximum value and reduce decision latency.  As organizations deal more and more with the increasing velocity, variety, and volume of data, architectures that combine Big Data and real-time operational intelligence solutions are going to become paramount. In this session you will learn about:

  • Approaches for event-enabling your applications and processes with minimal impact
  • Techniques for correlating and processing these exposed events for proactive monitoring, alerts, and responses
  • Strategies for combining real-time event processing with Big Data initiatives and analytics in order to meet the needs of the business

 

The Groundswell Architecture Community facilitates regularly scheduled meetings focused on a range of thought-evoking topics relevant to the architecture industry and our roles as technology leaders. The premise behind the community is simple: to create a professional network of those interested in, and influenced by, architecture best practices, trends and networking opportunities.


Like every Groundswell Architecture Community discussion, this meeting will leverage initiatives, methodologies and case studies to maximize flow of information and engage attendees in an open, collaborative setting.
