Hi, Community!
I'm glad to announce UK Technology Summit 2016 started!
#ISCTech2016 tag will help be in touch with all is happening in the Summit.
You are very welcome to discuss the Summit here in comments too!
If I am in a community on this website looking at articles would expect a search box at top so I can search within this community.
1) The search top right is too general (I don't want to have to sub search, refine or just ignore irrelevant results)
2) Most forums have the ability to easily search within them on other sites, which is what as a user I would expect
The recent post about help with the Cache Language and the responses were very helpful.
I suggest two new tags, and the tags being permanently toward the top of the tag list.
1) Help with understanding the Developer Community
2) Help with Cache and all the various off-shoots
Presenter: Rich Taylor

Task: Prevent application-to-application interface problems from escalating
Approach: Give examples of using alerts to get the right person working on a problem as soon as possible
Problems with application-to-application interfaces are inevitable but in most cases they can be fixed with little disruption as long as the right person gets to know about it as soon as possible. But delays in attention cause problems to escalate, pressure mounts and business suffers. This session looks at how monitoring and alerting can be set up to recognize problems and get the right person working on the problem in the shortest possible time so that small problems don’t turn into major issues.
Solution: Using alerts to minimize interface problems

Task: Decide whether a converged infrastructure is ideal for your enterprise applications
Approach: Discuss best practices and provide guidance on the right questions to ask
The traditional use of “SAN storage” is no longer the only choice for deploying enterprise application. Software defined data centers are making inroads into enterprise data centers, and there is good reason for it. There is the potential for significant infrastructure cost savings, architecture simplification, reduced administration costs, and depending on the configuration - even better performance. This session will discuss some best practices and outline decision guidance to help you ask the right questions when considering hyper-converged architectures.

Hi, Community!
We've started InterSystems Global Summit Free Registration Contest this week.
Here is interactive leaderboard available!
Hi, Community!
There are only six days left to win InterSystems Developer Community MVP prize.
As it was announced in addition to Free Registration on InterSystems Global Summit winner gets 4 nights stay in the Arizona Baltimore, Waldorf Astoria Resort.
We measure contribution to Developer Community on valuable posts and comments and prepared special leaderboard built on InterSystems DeepSee.
By default, it shows all the members. We added the filter to the dashboard to show leaderboard without members who are InterSystems employees.
So here is current leaderboard without InterSystems members:
There is any mean to use different fonts? For example "Courier New" for code text, or different colors? To work only with HTML is too hard
I'm very proud of the Worldwide Response Center - an excellent group of men and women - and I am interested to hear from you about your experience using the WRC. There are always better ways for us to serve you.
I'm also very excited about the Developer Community which we're bringing to you to give you an opportunity to connect with groups and individuals in the InterSystems community. Let us know what you think and how we can improve it in order to serve you better.
