The Roadmap to 'Hadoop in the Cloud'

The Roadmap to ‘Hadoop in the Cloud’

By Martijn Linssen on May 28, 2014

The Twitter ball started rolling again just now. Matt Asay posed an interesting question about Forrester suggesting Hadoop isn’t a great fit for the cloud. (Even) without context Vijay Vijayasankar and I started firing off questions and answers which inevitable led to my promise of writing down the transition plan for it Here it is I’ll start bottom-up, from […]

After a very lively conversation with Holger Müller I decided on “posting it up” – Twitter is fine for conversations but sometimes the 140-char limit just doesn’t cut it.
We discussed Integration, within enterprises. Along th…

SAP gets the Future of Integration

SAP gets the Future of Integration

By Martijn Linssen on April 16, 2012

OK, I’ll admit it: this title is heavily (heavenly?) influenced by the previous Easter weekend – yet has no relation to it whatsoever. Or has it? Let’s skip the usual introduction, here is the message from Vishal Sikka that absolutely thrilled me @MartijnLinssen @steinermatt we do.The Gateway. It will simply be services in HANA.Also PI, […]

Integration is the new Operation - this decade and next

Integration is the new Operation – this decade and next

By Martijn Linssen on December 1, 2011

I gave a presentation the other day that is a very short version of my Integration book. As usual, that forced me to compact thoughts and ideas, and craft a new visual – see above. I’ve used that already in a post the other day, but that didn’t pay proper attention to it I’m a […]

Cloud API's don't exist, but become costlier over time

Cloud API’s don’t exist, but become costlier over time

By Martijn Linssen on October 12, 2011

 I had a discussion with George Reese on Cloud and API’s, starting with me saying I’d support a maximum of 3 different API versions, and off went the discussion. His “Max 3 versions? Do you hate your ecosystem?”, “What do you mean there’s no such thing as a public cloud API?” and “When you cease […]

Social silos adding to enterprise silos? Not with proper Integration

Social silos adding to enterprise silos? Not with proper Integration

By Martijn Linssen on August 25, 2011

Laurie Buzcek called out for Integration as a solution for the failure of Enterprise 2.0 and Social Business – which she equates to each other – and I couldn’t help but think of Tibbr when reading her post Dion Hinchcliffe responded with a post in which he also stresses the integration of social media with […]

The packages - customisation MQ

The packages – customisation MQ

By Martijn Linssen on April 28, 2011

I got Rt’ed today on the #ITF11 hashtag: RT @MartijnLinssen: @johnrrymer @TomGrantForr There is no one-size-fits-all. Pure packages is wrong, as is pure customisation #ITF11 >YES and that’s basically all I have to say about it – not. There is a human tendency to do either-or. Black or white, good or bad, pretty or ugly […]

Perfect Integration - the eBook

Perfect Integration – the eBook

By Martijn Linssen on March 28, 2011

  Perfect Integration by Martijn Linssen What started with Perfect Integration 1 – Architectural Approach and ended with Perfect Integration 13 – the do’s has become a lot of words, more than 10,000 actually. Hence my decision to publish it as an eBook for easier reading – if you have any comments or questions you […]

Perfect Integration 13 – the do’s

By Martijn Linssen on March 22, 2011

Final post in the series, this is the summary and conclusion, to be used as some sort of checklist if you like. When conducting enterprise business application integration, within the enterprise IT landscape among applications and systems, or from there to others at another company or even directed towards the customer, here are the pragmatic […]

Perfect Integration 12 – the dont’s

By Martijn Linssen on March 20, 2011

I changed my mind and decided to end this series with positive do’s, so this is the dont’s one. Then again reserving no. 13 for the dont’s was a superstitious move anyway, and as I’m neither religious nor superstitious (they usually travel in pairs), it’s better this way. This post is about debunking TLA’s and […]

Perfect Integration 11 – Orchestration

By Martijn Linssen on March 17, 2011

I’ve compared the diversity of an IT application landscape and managing its information exchange in a uniform way to translation, with the European Parliament as a perfect example of translating dozens of languages via three intermediate languages. In IT, we only need one, as languages (syntaxes) there are far less complex than in the linguistic […]

Perfect Integration 10 – the missing link: envelope

By Martijn Linssen on March 16, 2011

With a common language, a common transport protocol, and the need to exercise the necessary translation and transformation on both levels in between, there is a growing need to be able to identify all “service requests” on a generic level too. Numerous and various requests will be made, in different formats, via different transport protocols. […]

Perfect Integration 9 – history with hindsight

By Martijn Linssen on March 15, 2011

In the previous post, the history of Integration passed: point-to-point, EAI and ESB. For those who read and grasped post 1 through 7, it’ll be clear why I favour which one – but let me explain it in more detail. What are the differences between the different historical approaches? The crucial difference is that EAI […]

Perfect Integration 7 – information exchange: transportation

By Martijn Linssen on March 14, 2011

After creating and or choosing a common or generic format to exchange the information, there is one other field to explore: the facilitation of various communication protocols through which this information can be transported. What applies to messages, also applies to transport: a common language is to be advised as “main artery” for all the […]

Perfect Integration 6 – Common language: syntaxes

By Martijn Linssen on March 11, 2011

In the previous posts I explained semantics, syntax, and the fastest, cheapest and easiest way to get from diverse IT applications to one uniform business language. This post will take a deep dive into message formats such as Flat file, EDIFACT, XML and JSON. Ever wondered about the pros and cons of XML? JSON? What […]
