Project Managers need to be able to lead a team to achieve results on time, and on budget.

Your team members may well not have worked together before, and even if they have, they are by definition doing a project that they have not done before.  They may also still prioritize their regular jobs, and you need them to work on your project.

So, it is particularly important that the PM knows how to get people to do what needs to be done, often under pressure. The techniques in this Performance Based Leadership presentation will help.

Presenter: James Rogers (LinkedIn profile) is a senior project who champions &  manages multi-million dollar SDLC and Agile IT programs, from inception to operation, for large entities. James. recently managed two relocation projects,  and is currently advising a NASA contractor on setting up a PMO. He has prepared the Department of Justice for ISO 20000 certification, managing the program of 14 process improvement projects, plus change, communication, internal audit, risk, and the development of top management reporting to implement and gain a return on this significant investment. Using ITIL/ISO compliant work processes also set the foundation for a future move of their Service Management System to the cloud.

In 2018, at least 85% of organizations consider web APIs and API-based integration fundamental to their business strategy and continued success.

However, the explosion of APIs is creating incremental security risks that must be addressed. In 2017, APIs appeared for the first time on the OWASP Top 10 Application Security Risks, with the warning that “attackers may steal or modify such weakly protected data to conduct credit card fraud, identity theft, or other crimes.”

Laurent Gil explains why API security is quickly becoming a key cross-cutting concern for everyone from DevOps to the CISO.

In this webcast you’ll learn:

  • The sources of API security vulnerabilities
  • How to identify vulnerable apps and APIs
  • How DevOps teams can build more secure APIs
  • Strategies for defending against the threats

Presenter:  Laurent Gil (LinkedIn profile) Co-founder of Zenedge, Laurent now brings his in-depth knowledge of the cybersecurity space to his product strategy role at Oracle. He joined Oracle Dyn as a Product Strategy Architect for Internet Security in early 2018 with Oracle’s acquisition of Zenedge.

Redis is the perfect fit for microservices, distributed and cloud-agnostic applications in a containerized world.  In today’s consumed-driven world, application performance is increasingly important.

Redis, the open-source NoSQL database, is known for its linear scalability in performance; recent benchmarks show up to 50 million ops/sec.

Redis Enterprise makes Redis highly available, multi-model (like search and graph) and makes scaling in the cloud, on-premises or in Kubernetes, seamless while reducing your TCO.

Join Pieter Cailliau, (LinkedIn profile) Redis Labs as he discusses:

  • How the Redis Enterprise architecture assures predictable high performance and high availability
  • How to achieve seamless linear scale and grow your dataset beyond the largest node in the cluster while choosing your own sharding policy.
