Digitize Enterprise Assets for Mobility

Demand for digital experiences such as mobility are putting pressure on enterprise teams and systems. Many of these systems are deployed on servers and not engineered to scale. Mobility projects across web/mobile, voice, chat and AR are increasingly running on serverless cloud native architectures. But how can organizations meet the customer demands for digital experiences on enterprise systems such as ERP systems or enterprise APIs?

Join Progress Kinvey to explore four options to digitize enterprise systems to deliver experiences for the connected world. Held during the Mobile + IoT Summit: Integration Developer News.

Finding App ROI Through Time And Money

The better the technology, the more efficient the workflow. When time is money, mobile applications can be the single best solution for an enterprise looking to save both. Understanding which lines of business can most benefit from app abilities is the first step on the path to mobile success.

Listen to Brad Shafton, Director of Innovation and User Experience at Hologic, and Sumit Sarkar, Chief Data Evangelist with Progress Kinvey, discuss defining ROI for mobile applications, process efficiencies, and showing value in project investments.

How to Mobilize Your EHR Information Quickly and Securely

The digitization of patient information into electronic health records (EHRs) has unlocked new opportunities to better serve patients. However, this data is often difficult to access. In this webinar, Niko Skievaski, co-founder and president of Redox, and Jikku Venkat, VP of Product for Kinvey at Progress, show you how to strip away all the archaic complexity and leverage your patient information to deliver better app experiences.

Five Things Every Healthcare CIO Needs to Know to Accelerate mHealth Innovation

Digital innovation is attained via a combination of people, process and technology. This webinar will focus on the technology piece of the puzzle and will explain how Progress Health Cloud (which is based on the Kinvey serverless backend) can be used in conjunction with Redox’s EHR Integration Platform to provide a HIPAA-compliant innovation accelerator for your entire community.

Certify Tableau, Power BI, Qlik Connectors with Your Enterprise Apps

Visual analytics is an essential component for enterprise BI strategies, which has driven demand for full integration of business applications with data visualization tools across the enterprise. To satisfy this demand and deliver seamless user experiences to their customers, many ISVs are building their own BI/data connectors.

However, this build-your-own-connectors strategy is neither economical nor scalable, with each enhancement request taking up time that could be better spent elsewhere. To avoid this, many organizations are partnering with Progress® DataDirect® to deliver universal BI connectors.

Join Progress and Tableau in this on-demand webinar to learn about:

• The current landscape of popular data visualization and BI tools
• Differences in integration patterns and available features across several popular tools
• Build vs. buy comparisons using DataDirect Universal BI Connector SDK
• Demo on custom Tableau connector
