The enterprise-class business application brings the power, speed and intelligence of cloud computing to people and organizations to achieve more. “Customers from around the world are using the cloud in incredible ways to accelerate and transform their business,” said Scott Guthrie, executive vice president, Microsoft Cloud and Enterprise. “Today’s release is an exciting milestone extending Microsoft’s business cloud offerings. It’s now possible for organizations to run their entire business in the cloud with Microsoft — from productivity with Office 365, to business analytics with Power BI and Cortana Analytics Suite, customer engagement with Dynamics CRM and business operations with Dynamics AX.” Customers across the globe are already using Dynamics AX to run their business processes in the cloud — from single domains like human resources and manufacturing to end-to-end business. Companies already live in production include Hagler Systems , Haldex , Icon , Renault Sport Formula One Team , Priva , Smiles , Travel Alberta and Umbra Group. The new Dynamics AX moves beyond traditional business solutions and brings ERP, business intelligence, infrastructure and database services together in a single offering, empowering organizations to run industry-specific and operational business processes that are extendable with specific solutions from partners. Wednesday, Microsoft announced more than 50 ISV solutions that are available on the Azure Marketplace. These Microsoft-curated, pre-configured industry and vertical solutions help customers discover and implement the solution they need quicker than ever before and, like Dynamics AX, enable fast consumption of updates and improvements. In addition to the 50-plus solutions already available, hundreds are in development today. The new Dynamics AX takes the capabilities of Lifecycle Services (LCS) to the next level. Businesses will be able to combine the best practices for their mission-critical apps with the flexibility and simplicity of upgrade via the cloud. With LCS, Dynamics AX will formalize the concepts of development, test and production, making the ongoing upgrade quicker to implement and deploy and easier to manage. “Lifecycle Services represents a shift in how companies manage the life cycle of an ERP system in a way that’s never really been done before,” said Josh Greenbaum, principal analyst, Enterprise Application Consulting. “The ability to test in the cloud and use the cloud’s natural elasticity and functionality to take the test, flip a switch and make it the actual production environment, that truly is magic.” Harnessing the power of the Azure cloud, Dynamics AX provides enhanced security along with global availability and scale, enabling businesses and people to work more safely anywhere, anytime while respecting the data sovereignty requirements of global customers no matter where in the globe they operate. “We do everything through Dynamics AX now; we manage virtually all of our operations,” said Thomas Mayer, chief operating office, Renault Sport Formula One Team. “Having what I need to run my business available anywhere in the world is invaluable.” “We are bringing massive amounts of data into our business to help control building climates and horticulture environments.

  • People People
    let your people be people 36 ways to use storytelling to transform your business, uplift your employees, and ultimately let your biggest asset—your people—be more human. BY ANNA WALSH & NATE NICHOLS, PHD Copyright © 2019 Narrative Science, all rights reserved. ISBN: 978-0-578-59692-1 Foreword By Stuart Frankel, founder and CEO of Narrative Science All of these lines across my face Tell you the story of who I am So many stories of where I’ve been And how I got to where I am —“The Story,” by Brandi Carlile This is a book about storytelling and the power of stories. We all tell stories every day. We tell them to friends, significant others, kids, and colleagues. Sometimes the stories are funny or sad, but often when we tell stories we’re just trying to explain something to somebody. We talk about storytelling a lot at Narrative Science. It explains what we do, but more than that, it describes our view on how to communicate to any constituency. We tell stories in the office all the time, and some of my favorites are about our customers. One such customer is a large retailer. Every week, the store manager in each of the company’s 2,000 stores receives a 14-tab spreadsheet that includes data about all aspects of the store’s operations. The spreadsheet then gets printed in the store and used by the manager and their team to better understand performance. The retailer partnered with us, and now, in addition to the spreadsheets, each store manager gets a weekly story that hits on all of the critical data points in the spreadsheet.

  • Scenario-Focused Engineering: a Toolbox for Innovation and Customer
    Praise for Scenario-Focused Engineering “Breakthroughs often result when diverse disciplines collaborate to solve old problems using new perspectives. Scenario-Focused Engineering is just such a breakthrough. I’ll never see software design the same.” —Eric Brechner, Development Manager, Microsoft Xbox, author of I.M. Wright’s Hard Code “If your team focus is dominated by what you want to make, without enough consideration of why or for whom, this book is for you. Revitalize your team and your product by using these rigorous techniques that put the customer at the center.” —Chris Pratley, Director of Program Management, Microsoft Office, creator of OneNote and Sway “De Bonte and Fletcher have astute insight into how engineering teams build products today. They expertly lay out a compelling approach to the creation of desirable products and services through the embrace of Scenario-Focused Engineering. Read it and you’ll want to start using Scenario-Focused Engineering in your development processes immediately.” —Gayna Williams, founder, Swash Consulting “If you are new to customer-centricity or an expert with decades of experience, this book is a great addition to your library. It demonstrates that customer-centricity is the responsibility of everybody in the organization and gives readers strategies and ideas to make this happen.” —Charles Bennett, CEO, NextTen “Microsoft has gradually shifted from a feature-focused approach to product engineering to a more user-centric, scenario-focused approach. The shift was both profound and difficult. The SFE training they drove was instrumental to Microsoft meeting these challenges. In this book you’ll get the distilled lessons of that enormous undertaking.” —Charles Eliot, Head of Engineering Services, Skype “In this impeccably organized book, Fletcher and De Bonte combine practical wisdom and highly refined techniques to produce a hands-on guide that will enrich the design room as well as the classroom.

    Articles Total 26 articles, created at 2016-03-05 18:02 Adoption of Health Apps, Wearable 1 Devices Grows An Accenture report found that the vast majority of consumers and doctors believe wearables help patients engage in their health. The number of U. S. consumers using wearables and mobile apps for managing their health has doubled from 16 percent in 2014 to 33 percent today. The findings are part of a seven-country Accenture survey of roughly 8,000 consumers, including 2,225 in the United States. The majority of both consumers (77 percent) and doctors (85 percent), the reported found, said that using wearables helps a patient engage in his or her health. In addition, four in 10 consumers who use health apps said they have discussed or shared mobile app data with their doctor in the past year. Of the one in five consumers who were asked by a doctor to use wearables to track their health, such as fitness or vital signs, three-quarters (76 percent) followed their physician's recommendation. "Overall, as wearable devices and health apps become more popular, they also face some criticism. For example, some say wearables lack the ability to keep consumers' attention in the long run—perhaps they use it for a few months and then it becomes less consistent," Dr. Kaveh Safavi, senior managing director for Accenture's global health care business, told eWEEK. "Others have noted potential privacy concerns associated with data sharing and tracking of this sort, or the pitfalls of a lack of true interoperability between consumers, health care providers and other key parties at this time.
