Rational Software Conference 09 - Day 2


Martin Nally addressed the audience about how to improve Software Economy & achieve agility at scale:

Introduced 2 framework to achieve the above

> RCA (Report Collaborate Automate) to complete the project 1 month early.

It is very much needed that the requirements are well defined

> MCIF (Measured Capability Improvement Framework) best practice for SDLC which tells us how to isolate the activities.

He adds that Software economy is balancing risk & opportunity


Neeraj Chandra:- Smart Product for Smart Planet

He started off his presentation with a saying “You can’t cut the way to success”

Innovation is more about solving a problem on ground reality and reducing complexity. Recession is a curse & this IT down turn will end and then we need to take up this opportunity. Future will see Smarter products like

Mobile Computing, Smart Transport, health care, energy & aero-scope. A products major failure is most of the time the embedded software. Concludes by saying that “Rational Software’s are Smart product existing in this yet to be - Smart Planet”


Session on Mashups: Defined as :-Lightweight web application created by combined contents from different app with some new insight. Eg being igoogle and Google Map. Helps in building Enterprise. WebTop is the first mashup application.

Best Practice in Mashup Application is to know what to combine & how to combine


WebSphere feature pack & RAD for Web 2.0 Application Development: This feature has SOA for web 2.0 + Ajax Messaging & Ajax Development feature, DOJO toolkit 1.0 to avoid browser behave differently.

  • Support 3 tire architecture,
  • JavaScript developer Editor
  • JavaScript debugging – Firebug
  • Eclipse integration in RAD
  • DOJO project setup
  • GWT integration not possible
  • Exploring EJB as a REST is easy by just configuring it in RAD
  • WebSphere feature can be used in Eclipse


John Burroughs on Web Security tool AppScan:

Security is recession proof. When market was down security went up. We see 75% Application attacks & 25% network attack. The latest version of Appscan can scan across SOA, DOJO & Flash application. We see only 20% of OS attacks and Web App attacks are 55%. SQL Injection is the No1 vulnerability. AppScan is

the tool which can detect vulnerability at production, build, development phase.

Ø AppScan coding test is integrated at IDE and supports all IDE’s

Ø AppScan for development level editing is a plug-in

Ø They acquired Ounce Labs so that they could do white box testing after which the next version of AppScan released in Oct 08 had code analysis tool.

2009 RoadMap

* Join ISS initiative

* AppScan ISS site Protector

* Solving Enterprise Security Challenge

* Jazz security Software delivery platform

Phase of Security Vulnerability: Coding, Build, QA Testing & Product

Stealing data & gaining popularity amongst pears are the major reason for cyber crime.

Growth in Complexity & Web 2.0 has made security more needed the solution to fight against would be to train the developers in security and more investment in security.


After those 2 days of lab & session packed knowledge bag made me feel proud of being an IBMer and believe that Rational tools need to be more in-use to get agility in place from real world to SDLC.

Rational Software Conference 09 - Day 1


Tools can make SDLC agile and economic, IBM Rational Software are the major players. Rational software Conference 09 witnessed 5000 registration for 2 days held at Leela palace on 13th – 14th Aug 09.



Steve Robinson - Real Insights, Real Results: Introduced the contribution of JAZZ an open source forum. He says if all project follow CAR (Collaborate – Automate – Report) framework they will be agile & scaleable


Heyden Lindsey – Driving innovation today: Rational innovation is Smart planet & smarter products. Success with innovation in any project can be achieved by understanding business goals then looking for collection of frameworks & available tools, knowing how to deploy them and lastly selecting meaningful matrix to measuring the performance.

We see lots of software innovations in the area of Electronics, Automation & Aerospace. Cloud computing has 2 sides - on cloud service and service for cloud

On cloud service is where software’s are installed in the cloud and many can access it.

Service for cloud is when a operation is exposed as a service.


Grady Booch – S/W a key to Smart Planet : UML author started with an example, A software which could before hand predict Cyclone or Katrina which will occur. We need technology to change, want it to be a bit smarter which could store huge data, share data and have competency in market.


Lab on Rhapsody 7.5: A tool which will translate UML model language to code.

Lab1: Hello world program by drawing a Class diagrams and writing only 1 line of code.

Lab 2: Build a stop watch

It’s a Model – Driven & UML development

Enables design level debugging having benefit of product & quality

Rational software Architecture is used to build Java based web application from a UML


Lab on AppScan 7.1: A tool to test Web Application Security.

OWASP reports SQL & XSS Injection the highest level of attacks

Lab 1: Hacking cookies information

Lab 2: SQL Injection

Lab 3: XSS Injection

It exposes the security vulnerabilities on URL basis, gives recommendations to resolve.


Session on JCAP: Java code Analyze Program

Developers can automatically inspect their Java source code and improve their Java programming skills as they write their programs via JCAP. It provides descriptive Java patterns explaining error prone code constructs and providing solutions for it.

It checks:

  • conformance to coding standards,
  • misuse of the Java language,
  • best practice conformance
  • code structure and
  • potential bugs at the earliest stages of development.


Session on Ration Clear Case Remote Client 7.1: A software configuration management tool. Has atomic commit, scheduler for build and an option to pick the version of the file. Can share a branch, has bulk checking & checkout option, view update, find merge, new project changes, cross project changes,

What we wish in our lives is only true with the Keyboard


1. When we look at our past, we think it could have been much better, we wish there was 'undo (ctrl + Z)' in life!

2. We miss many things in our life and then we wish there was 'find tool (ctrl+F)' in life!

3. At times we mess up our relationship with others, we wish there was 'rebuild all' in life!

4. The conference room is full packed and you cannot get anywhere near that celebrity at the other end, we wish there was 'zoom & view full screen'in life!

5. We love someone and then we marry get married and later at a stage a realization that there is bound to be a mismatch, we wish there was a valuation period' or atleast a 'sample download' or a 'demo version'!

6. We get up early in the morning and see a pimple on the face, we wish there was 'cut and paste (ctrl + X)/ (ctrl + C)' in life!

And the best one is ..........

7. The best part of the keyboard is U & I are together which is not always there in life......

Foster's party at Blue, Solaris Club


Kingfisher ruled Indian beer goers throughout the late eighties. Nineties, too, started with a bang for the makers of Kingfisher beer. And then there came a rival that divided the Kingfisher market.


FOSTER'S India Ltd, makers of Foster's beer.


"Foster's is the world's 7th largest international beer brand, but to date has been under-represented in India". Foster's, a leading Australian brand, has six per cent market in the mild beer India market.

What does this call for – Good Marketing strategy?

Foster's, which started operations in India in 1998, is rolling out a new initiative to emphasis the quality of its beer, apart from this they also believe "If we r the best lets show it".


Thus to promote their brand in Pune, they had organized a invite-only poolside party at Blue, Club Solaris, Koregoan park on 7th June 2009, Sunday at 12:30 PM.

I was invited by IndiBlogger along with some of known and popular Pune blogger’s to be a part of this event.

My camera has brought back some of the action !

Foster's Party had astonishing music by a famous DJ,




free Foster beer, models & media celebrities who sizzled around the Blue swimming pool.




Forget swimming and keeping fit. Your average pool can be your pond of fun, just like what we have here.


The party was a 'splashing success' with some models and celebrities hitting the venue to cool off.




Today, Foster's Lager is one of the fastest growing, truly global beer brands, available in more than 150 countries.




* Do you’ll still have a Question for me “U being a part of UB Group and a Non-Boozer

what were u doing at Foster’s Party?”.

How it all changed…


Here I am thinking hard about life...
Asking myself questions of which I know I will never find an answer.

How it changed from a maverick college life to strict professional life ?

How pocket money changed to huge monthly paychecks
but then why it gives less happiness ?

How a few local denim jeans changed to branded wardrobe
but then why there is less fun in carrying them ?

How a single plate of Vada-Pav changed to a full Pizza
but then why there is less hunger ?

Here I am thinking hard about life...
Asking myself questions of which I know I will never find an answer.
How it all changed...

How a bike always in reserve changed to a car always on
but then why there are less places to go on ?

How a small coffee shop changed to cafe coffee day
but then why its feels like shop is far away ?

How a limited prepaid card changed to postpaid package
but then why there are less calls & more messages ?

Here I am thinking hard about life...
Asking myself questions of which I know I will never find an answer.
How it all changed...

How a general class journey changed to a luxury journey
but then why there are no vacations for enjoyment..

How an old assembled desktop changed to new branded laptop
but then why there is less time to teach my mom new games ?

How a big gang of friends changed to office mate
but then why do I feel lonely n find no reasons to laugh ?

Here I am thinking hard about life
How it all changed ?
How it all changed ?

Most things in life are moments of pleasure and a lifetime of embarrassment

We all have had our share of embarrassing moments and here are few of mine:

Show 1:
My CAT preparation math faculty was a young fashionable dude, carrying long soft hair. He had a unique style of lifting his hair when they used to fall on his face and its frequency was almost every 5 min. When the class was on, to have some fun around I started imitating his style, and his eye caught my act.

Consequences: He didn’t say a word at that time. Next day I was on my way to class; he stops his bike & takes out his helmet. Guess what ….his head was shaved off. I was embarrassed…my fun turned out to be a sacrifice for someone.

Show 2:
We at college had organized an ex-students get-together, where I was doing a presentation. There was this tall gentleman who gave me his 100% attention… and this continued after the presenting till the dinner too. I told this to my friends and they were all teasing him. Our College re-opened and here comes the embarrassing moment of my life. Our HOD introduced the same gentlemen as our visiting faculty

Consequences: It’s a big story … will take you’ll to the climax. He left our college and syllabus incomplete and went away to Mumbai.

Show 3:
Was in my car, and suddenly a City Honda took a right turn with out an indicator sign. I went ahead and started shouting at him….. and when I watched the person carefully, I was embarrassed to see that he was my School geometry teacher.

Consequences: My sir said sorry… and we had lunch together :)

Show 4:
A school friend of mine comes along with his female friend in a party. Conversation went on… and I started telling her how he used to flirt during school days. I went on and on and suddenly in those 2 seconds of my breath break he interrupted by saying she is the one with whom I will be tying a knot next month…..oppps She started hitting him and I was embarrassed

Consequences: Love wins…. They got married :-)



Show 5:
A meeting was going on. The conference room was filled with 40 people. Client presenting performance report and everyone was dam serious. I suddenly found some thing very funny… I busted out laughing hiding my face. Oppp everyone’s noticing…I covered it up by pretending to read a funny SMS.

Consequences: Client walks down to my desk after the meeting. Says I like ur smile, am I so funny ?



God thanks for saving me from all these embarrassing moments. Hope I never face any such in future, Fingers crossed.

The National Cyber Media Conclave, SIMC

Living the Change

In a world where the rules of the game have changed and change itself has become tangible, the smart thing is to do be the change. SIMC students gave this reality a face in the first ever National Cyber Media Conclave 09 held at Symbiosis Knowledge Village, Pune.

Wonderfully engaging and insightful, the day began with a panel of speakers talking about content in new media. Kiruba Shankar, CEO of Business Blogging, spoke of maximizing the social media connect. Shared his experience about twitter, to prove that social media tools are very powerful. Concluded by saying everyone should have a wish list and must never give it up. Shivam Vij, a Tehelka journalist, spoke of blogging and the changing media attitude towards blogs. “The bloggers fair has replaced the janta ki aawaz as vox pop”.

Cyber news media as the ultimate fourth estate was the message Shiv Bhaskar Dravid, founder of the Views Paper, drove home in his presentation. Being at a very youth stage believes that youth have talent but no platform, here Cyber media fills in the gap and gives unlimited opportunity to them. Cyber media is stronger than conventional media to express public opinion as it is governed by political influences. Predicts future to be Web + Mobile applications. A diploma thesis project ‘Blank noise’ turned into a movement on new media. Reaching out to victims, perpetrators and observers of street sexual harassment, Jasmine Patheja shared “it’s most important to figure out what you want to say, then figure out how you want to say it”.

While the session took a break for lunch, and the audience revitalized themselves with the free red bulls being distributed outside, the panel changed from content providers to branders and marketers.

Rajesh Lalwani, CEO Blogworks TM, mapped out the layers of influence on purchase decisions and elucidated the impact of social media where “for a change even the marketer has jumped into a conversation” with the consumer. Internet as a tool for publicity and mobilization was best described by Rashmi Dhanwani, managing director of Break Through TV, with the Bell Bajao Campaign which deals with domestic violence. “Ours is a very indirect form of activism because we make use of a lot of new media”. Feeding social issues like the evils of deportation through games like ICED (I Can End Deportation) as food for thought to the American public “enable change agents...ICED has been downloaded by people in 150 countries” said Rashmi. The CEO of Switch Media Services India Pvt. Ltd.

Namit Bimbhat brought to life ‘the evolving face of online video’. “There is a huge opportunity to consume video and manage content” which gives rise to an opportunity to create a brand in the long term. “I actually call myself the CEO!” says J. Mahadevan, V.P. Products Bharat Matrimony, for whom CEO spells Chief Engagement Officer! “92% of all digital consumers only buy a product if their peers or social influence have referred it” he said and shared the Social Technographics TM Ladder, a framework conceptualized to establish various segments of users of social media. Based on population distribution of these groups it should be possible to determine which sort of strategy will make sense to reach consumers.

Atul Chitnis, Chief Products Officer Godesic Ltd, made the audience come alive by pulling out gadgets running on Open Source Software from his magic bag of tricks! “The internet is built on OS...in fact the biggest utility value of Internet Explorer is to download Firefox!” Without OS cyber world is empty. OS does not mean its free, a day will soon come when we will be paying to use facebook and twitter… be ready as the “World is Changing”.

I had a word with speakers - Kiruba, Rajesh, Rashmi and Jasmine.

The day ended with an interactive workshop by Kiruba and Rajesh talking about social media, its benefits and responsibilities leaving the young communicators of SIMC with much to think about and action!
