Competitive Edge
We specialize in helping enterprise organizations get a handle on their big legacy systems so they can meet the future with a competitive edge. 

Large amounts of data, flowing in at high speed, is a critical component of the systems we manage. For a detailed take on the state of data overload management, take a look at Forresters new study on the topic, reviewed and linked in the section below. 

Before you do, note that pricing for the 12th CA 2E / CA Plex Conference, which we sponsor, goes up after the July 31st deadline, so get your tickets nowDon't forget to include F1 racing tickets if you're so inclined as they are still available, but may not be for long

Heads Up 
Businesses Struggle with Data Overload
Forrester Research recently conducted a study, sponsored by Dell Technologies, that reveals how deeply companies are feeling the impact of data overload, and how their future competitive edge may depend on getting things under control.

According to the study, 70% of businesses responded that they have more data than they can successfully manage, and the same amount felt they were bringing data in faster than they could utilize it.

More importantly, most organizations aren't prioritizing centralization of the data so it can be utilized accross the business, sure to be a competitive advantage in the years to come.

According to Forrester,

“...data’s centre of gravity is shifting away from the datacentre, data warehouse and analytics databases, and toward a networked ecosystem of data streams and the edge.”

Fall Conference 
Early Bird Warning
Conference early bird rates expire in just a few days on July 31st, so now is a great time to get your tickets. Buy them now before prices go up on August 1st.

F1 tickets are still available, too, so jump on your chance to include some fantastic racing in your trip. They will eventually sell out.

And while we're on the topic of racing, congratulations to Jeremy Stent who won F1 tickets at Wednesday's CA Communities webcast. The webcast includes some great pics of the F1 experience, and lightning talks that are a preview of what's to come at the conference.
