Life is a Database Old Chum…
We are rabid consumers of information. We want our information fast. We want our information to be accurate. And, we want our information any time and any where. We can be this demanding because we know everything of importance has been cataloged, filed, arranged, and assigned a key field – at least electronically. Now, as consumers of data we are not too concerned about the infrastructure supporting our insatiable need for fast, reliable, and on the go information. However, someone has to do the behind the scenes work so we don’t suffer in our quest for information. For years we have had developers toiling over performance algorithms to help us over the hurdle of server constraints. It was the best we could do.

Enter ENCIRQ. The ENCIRQ Data Foundation Framework gives developers everything they have been wanting…a way to get away from the classic client / server database architecture. Client / server is so 1980’s. With this model, ENCIRQ just moved a rather classic industry into the 21st century.

ENCIRQ does not need an operating system, but is certainly capable of working with a variety of them if you desire. But, the biggest breakthrough for ENCIRQ comes because of the breaking of the client / server mold. ENCIRQ’s data foundation is inline code. Inline code – this means no performance or size constraints of a server. To the masses this means a quick, simple, elegant, modern, reliable solution to the quest for information. And, we can free up all of those developer ergs to work on other things.

ENCIRQ is acting as a liberator from the shackles of 20th century computing: operating systems, IDEs, and proprietary API’s. What does this mean…it means the devices we carry will be unified in their approach to giving us what we need, when we need it, and where we need it. It’s time to move to the 21st century and realize traditional client / server models have a purpose, but to be truly free, we need to lose the overhead constraints a server imposes.

Demand your information be fast, reliable, and available.

What’s next?...Microsoft Tech Ed 2006 in Boston, MA. It’s not really a conference as much as an experience. Microsoft always makes you think, so watch for the Tech Ed posts.

Release Management - We Want YOUR Opinion

Releasing software, the last step to getting your software creation to your customers! Every team releases software differently, but everyone wants the release to be a success. So, regardless of how you release, how frequently you release, or how much you know about what you are releasing – we want your opinion! voke , the analyst firm focused on the edge of innovation, is conducting research on the topic of release management. We are looking for people exactly like you to share your opinion on software release management.  Please help out by letting us know what you think. The survey will take about 10 minutes to complete.

API Testing – Stop Waiting and Start Testing ASAP!

We have all heard that testers must keep pace with developers to deliver software faster. However, most testers continue to test at the UI level – which is constantly changing, so testers have to wait, and that impacts the ability to meet business demands for faster software releases. It becomes a cycle that testers have a hard time escaping. Testers want to be able to test earlier, reduce risk, and identify defects sooner – all to satisfy the customer. API testing is the perfect way to supplement traditional UI testing, keep pace with development, and deliver better quality at scale!  API testing can help you test earlier, faster, and more efficiently! And now, we have the data to show you the benefits of API testing including how much time is spent on UI testing alone, how much (or should I say little) time is spend on unit and API testing, and how much coverage is achieved.  We will be premiering the results of our recent survey on API testing in a webinar with Paraso

World Quality Report 2016 – 2017 Launch Highlights

I had the opportunity to attend the launch of the 8 th annual World Quality Report 2016 -2017 (WQR) authored by Capgemini and Sogeti , in collaboration with HPE . You can download a complimentary copy of the WQR here  This annual undertaking by the three companies is a global survey of 1600 participants consisting of 44 questions. The result is an 80-page report that provides a baseline for testing and QA trends. The launch event featured WQR co-authors Mark Buenen, Vice President, Global Leader, Sogeti QA and Testing Practice, Netherlands and Govindarajan Muthukrishnan, Senior Vice President,   Financial Services Testing Leader, United Kingdom. The co-authors spoke eloquently for about 30 minutes each on highlights of the WQR.  Following are some of the highlights from Mark and Govind’s WQR launch presentation. Overview As organizations continue on the path of digital transformation, there is immense pressure on the QA organization to deliver custome
