Full Sail Partners in Steamboat Springs, Colorado specializes in client-focused consulting, business strategy, data architecture and software solutions for over 1,000 project-based companies in industries such as architecture, engineering, and environment, amongst others. Wendy Gustafson, General Manager of Full Sail Partners, oversees accounting and human resources, and helps clients develop financial solutions for their organizations. Gustafson is responsible for the creation of a wide variety of templates for Full Sail and for clients including financial reporting, governmental forms, RFPs, and invoicing. Producing these templates was an extremely manual and overly complicated process. If fields were entered incorrectly in the template, such as an incorrect date on an agreement, Gustafson had to remerge data, a highly time-consuming task. Curating data in a usable format was difficult and every client had unique requirements. Full Sail was missing a solution that could procure data in varying formats that met the specific, individualized needs of the end user.
解决方案
In the testing phase of Informer 5.4, some Entrinsik clients were granted access to the Templates Preview feature. Full Sail Partners started using this new functionality to automate their previously manual form and template creation. In just one day, Gustafson was able to create a polished, professional custom invoice template with no previous HTML experience. She accomplished this by using the standard 'Hello World' template in Informer along with learning from internet searches on style sheets. This invoice had boilerplate language including fields for agreement details and signatures. Informer Templates use conditional logic and essentially act as a smart form. Logic is built-in, for example, 'an' is used in front of fields that start with vowels, and apostrophes are added to fields that end in an 's' when necessary. Gustafson mentioned that she does not have to worry about getting a field, such as address, incorrect as it is foolproof in Informer – all she must do is pull it in directly from the database. She no longer must remerge data if a field is incorrect or change hundreds of forms just because a single detail changed. Informer Templates can be programmed with HTML format and links to add features such as click-to-email or click-to-call. Users can create dashboards and visuals and showcase them within templates. Gustafson also commented that she can do more advanced math within Informer and merge it out than what she was able to do in their previous system.

Darwin Ecosystem: Accelerating discovery and insight through cutting-edge big data and cognitive technologies
Darwin Ecosystem was founded with a unique vision of harnessing chaos theory mathematics to uncover previously hidden connections in unstructured data. The company’s algorithms can look at all the data generated by any source (such as news, RSS feeds and Twitter), and analyze how a specific set of concepts within that data are evolving over time. This is particularly valuable in situations such as business and competitive intelligence, social research, brand monitoring, legal discovery, risk mitigation and even law enforcement. A common problem in these areas is that a regular web search will only turn up the all-time most popular answers to a given question – but what the expert researcher is actually interested in is the moment-tomoment evolution of the data available on that topic. Darwin’s algorithm is computationally intensive, and the sources of data it correlates can be vast. To bring its benefits to a larger commercial audience, Darwin needed to find a way to make it scale.

Delivering modern data protection with cloud scale backup from Cobalt Iron and IBM
Organizations are struggling to modernize their legacy data protection environments in the face of growing demands around new infrastructure, new applications, and budget consolidation. Virtualization and modern application development processes have significantly outgrown legacy backup architectures. In response, infrastructure teams have created multiple backup solution types to handle the varying SLAs (performance, scale, cost) required by their business sponsors. However, the sheer number and variety of solutions in this uncontrolled expansion creates huge amounts of work, threatening to overwhelm the IT team in many organizations. Today, developers may add new applications and virtual server instances by the hundreds per day without accounting for the restrictions of the existing backup infrastructure. They leverage the cloud for immediate compute and storage resources, yet rarely communicate succinctly with corporate IT to ensure that the appropriate data protection services are in place.
