ZoomInfo Acquires Clickagy to Deliver Streaming Intent Data
ZoomInfo, a global leader in go-to-market (GTM) intelligence solutions, announced that it has acquired
Clickagy, a leading provider of artificial intelligence-powered buyer intent data. Along with this
acquisition, ZoomInfo is launching Streaming Intent, an innovative solution that identifies companies with
above-average search volume on business-to-business (B2B) topics within minutes of their web activity.
As ZoomInfo continues to enhance its comprehensive go-to-market intelligence platform, the acquisition of
Clickagy provides sellers and marketers with streaming behavioral intent data that is expansive and
customizable. Using an advanced natural language processing engine which correctly identifies context,
Clickagy’s technology delivers stronger, more reliable intent signals in real time. Clickagy’s extensive
database gathers intent data from over 300,000 publisher domains and includes 6 trillion-plus new
keyword-to-device pairings each month, sourced from over 91 percent of accessible devices in the United
States. Innovation in the B2B intent landscape has lagged behind the business-to-consumer landscape for
much of the past decade. Most B2B intent solutions rely on the same set of underlying data generated by
limited media cooperators and third-party cookie tracking. Existing offerings only provide weekly batches
of buyer intent on a finite number of topics because of heavy data processing that takes days to complete,
negating opportunities to reach buyers at the opportune moment. Other solutions offer late-stage intent,
where vendors have already been identified, and it is too late for the addition of competing solutions. By
integrating Clickagy into its best-in-class platform, ZoomInfo will process and provide timely insights to
inform sales and marketing professionals when to best engage with prospects and customers. Combining a
robust intent product with the insights from ZoomInfo’s superior business data allows companies to get in
front of prospects and customers when their solutions are top of mind. ZoomInfo was recently ranked No.
“B2B intent data is becoming core to the way modern go-to-market organizations prioritize their
outreach to prospects and customers,” said ZoomInfo’s Founder and CEO. “Our acquisition of
Clickagy enables us to scale intent to provide what will soon be the market’s most predictive and
complete B2B intent data set for sellers and marketers. We believe this acquisition both exemplifies
our mission to continuously innovate and cements our position as the pacesetter for data-driven sales
and marketing outreach.”

Cisco's AppDynamics and ThousandEyes blend app monitoring with
network visibility
6
Solution Description
Blending Cisco's AppDynamics with its freshly acquired ThousandEyes is giving customers increased visibility from mobile devices all
the way to the cloud and beyond. The Covid-19 pandemic has heightened the need for better visibility across the cloud, devices and
networks, which means the pairing of AppDynamics and ThousandEyes was timely.Cisco announced in May that it was buying
network-monitoring company ThousandEyes and then closed the deal in August. While Cisco didn't disclose the financial terms,
Bloomberg reported that Cisco would pay close to $1 billion to buy ThousandEyes.ThousandEyes' cloud agents are external vantage
points that are distributed globally across its points of presence, while its enterprise agents are software-based and can be installed on
networks, data centers and branch offices.Increased network visibility is especially important as customers migrate toward multi-cloud
environments. Multi-cloud usage is being driven by infrastructure-as-a-service, software-as-a-service and platform-as-a-service use
cases. In addition, the dynamic nature of the cloud makes it even harder to proactively monitor networks.Three-years ago, Cisco bought
AppDynamics for $3.7 billion to provide application visibility to help Cisco's customers find and fix application performance issues.

AppDynamics Solves Visibility Gap Between Traditional Infrastructure
and Cloud Environments With New Portfolio of Cloud Native Solutions
7
AppDynamics, a part of Cisco and the world’s #1 APM solution and full-stack, business centric observability platform, released new capabilities designed to help IT teams build cloud native applications with confidence
by connecting hybrid cloud application performance to business performance in real-time. Through a context-sensitive visualization interface, correlated insights across domains and intelligent resource optimization,
enterprise IT leaders will be able to reduce noise and surface only the most business-critical information and insights across their unique hybrid environments.Technologists are adopting cloud services faster than ever
before in response to the global COVID-19 pandemic and the increased pressure it has placed on IT. While new cloud technologies have delivered flexibility and enabled innovation for businesses as they seek to deliver
seamless customer and employee digital experiences, they have also led to more complex and distributed application architectures. This has created huge challengesfor technologists in enterprise organizations who
typically rely on many traditional IT systems to run their businesses but now operate in a hybrid cloud environment. As IT teams adopt more cloud native services to meet the digital demands of their users, the challenge
to refactor applications and design new features at scale becomes increasingly challenging due to a lack of holistic visibility and business context across the multiple environments.AppDynamics’ new portfolio of cloud
capabilities closes that visibility gap and allows users to connect traditional systems with cloud native services, all in the context of business outcomes.
These new capabilities include:
• Full Stack Observability Platform: A new data platform designed to increase visibility and seamlessly ingest data from multiple sources including AppDynamics agent-based data, open-source tools and agent-less
services and correlate the data across domains.
• Cloud Data Collector: An extensible architecture for capturing and automating data collection and correlating cloud services with application code, user experience and business impact to provide full stack, context
rich observability. Starting with Amazon Web Services’ (AWS) monitoring and observability service, Amazon CloudWatch, and then expanding to incorporate additional public and private cloud environments.
• Cloud Native Visualization: A new visualization interface that reduces the complexity of monitoring cloud-native applications with a context-sensitive, easy to understand, visual representation.
• Intelligent Application Resourcing and Cost Optimization: An integration with Cisco Intersight Workload Optimizer will transform operations from reactive to proactive by optimizing infrastructure resources and
costs in hybrid cloud environments.

Confluent Announces New Data Security and Access Controls, Making
Confluent Cloud the Most Secure Approach to Apache Kafka at Scale
16
Confluent, Inc., the event streaming pioneer, announced new capabilities in Confluent Cloud that protect event data from threats and vulnerabilities across the entire Apache
Kafka® ecosystem. This supports the latest Project Metamorphosis theme – Secure – and ensures the next generation of event streaming applications can be put at the heart of
every business while avoiding costly downtime and risk. The full value of event streaming is unlocked when it’s established as the central platform for event data across an
entire business. This widespread use of Kafka makes it even more critical to ensure that the information it processes is properly secured and meets regulatory compliance. But
securing Kafka at scale is complex and doing it wrong could cost thousands of dollars per minute in downtime and increases the risk of data breaches. Through Project
Metamorphosis, Confluent is adding new capabilities like role-based access control (RBAC), audit logs, customer control of encryption keys, and additional private networking
connectivity options to Confluent Cloud to make it even easier to secure sensitive events and harness the full power of cloud-native Kafka.
Protect Data Across the Entire Kafka Ecosystem with Granular Access Controls and Real-Time Monitoring
• Role-based access control (RBAC) – In order to democratize data and event streams across a company, access controls are needed for both users and applications, so it’s
clear which individuals can access specific data. RBAC in Confluent Cloud establishes scalable, centralized roles and privilege definitions to not just Kafka, but also Schema
Registry, Kafka Connect, and ksqlDB.
• Audit logs – With more individuals in a company using Kafka, it gets harder to keep track of who is attempting to access event data and the actions being taken with Kafka
topics. Audit logs provide real-time insights into platform authorization logs and other security events, so action can quickly be taken to deal with any suspicious activity.

Artificial intelligence has revolutionized denoising and RAW conversion
technology
17
DxO, a software developer that has developed a reputation in the photography industry and one of the global leaders in image processing technology, is announcing
the immediate release of DxO DeepPRIME, an artificial intelligence technology dedicated to editing photos in RAW format. Trained with deep learning technology
using the millions of photos DxO’s laboratories have analyzed for more than 15 years, DxO DeepPRIME employs cutting-edge artificial intelligence and
drastically improves digital noise reduction while also delivering more effective demosaicing. The resulting photo quality is spectacular, especially for photos
taken in low light conditions, with small pixels, or with early-generation cameras.DxO DeepPRIME AI belongs to a class of neural networks call convolutional
neural networks, the structure of which is directly inspired by neuroscientific research on the human brain. The computer is allowed to determine the values of
millions of parameters within the network, hence the term automatic learning, based on a vast database of carefully chosen input and output example images.Since
its founding in 2003, DxO has earned an international reputation after measuring and calibrating hundreds of cameras and thousands of lenses using a protocol that
is more extensive than any other in the industry. Its laboratories have measured the amount of distortion, vignetting, chromatic aberrations, loss of sharpness, and
digital noise present in RAW images for each equipment combination and every situation with an extraordinary level of precision. Such in-depth knowledge of the
performance and defects of each piece of photography equipment, which now totals to more than 60,000 different combinations, has resulted in a database of
several million thoroughly calibrated images, each one containing several thousands of characteristic points. This database ultimately provided the DxO
DeepPRIME network with several billion samples to learn from.

industry-first solution allows next-generation media companies to dynamically enhance their existing Android TV set top boxes, and then bridge their TV and mobile
technology to reach users in an effective way across all of their screens. The unique solution transforms the TV experience, empowering users to customize their TVs
with their preferred content and services during the initial setup process, and throughout the lifetime of their Pay TV subscription. By doing so, it provides Pay TV
providers with premium, ongoing engagement opportunities with their subscribers, enabling them to elevate their brand and generate new and new recurring continuous
revenue streams.Currently, set-top box experiences are static, with limited opportunities for carriers to interact with their users and the content they consume, once the
box or service has been shipped from the factory. With the competition for Pay TV fierce in all major markets globally, standing out and offering a solution that adds
value for the customer is key. Aura’s new solution creates an opportunity for Pay TV providers to utilize various touch points and opportunities throughout a user’s TV
journey, to recommend channels and content, and display interactive ads and offers to their users, generating more choice for the customer and incremental revenue for
themselves. These additional engagement points help the provider stand out from the competition, increasing brand loyalty with customers and capturing more market
share.The solution works by leveraging traditional Aura touchpoints from the mobile device experience, such as an intelligent preload combined with contextual
notifications to maximize content exposure, and an Out of the Box Experience (OOBE) which is integrated into the TV’s setup wizard and allows users to easily
customize their TVs with their preferred apps during the initial setup process.

MongoDB Atlas is the First Cloud Database to Enable Customers to Run
Applications Simultaneously on all Major Cloud Providers
23
MongoDB, Inc., the leading, modern general-purpose database platform, announced the general availability of multi-cloud clusters for its global cloud database,
MongoDB Atlas. For the first time, customers can deploy a fully managed, distributed database across Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, and Microsoft
Azure simultaneously. This means customers can take advantage of the benefits of deploying applications across multiple cloud providers without the added
operational complexity of managing data replication and migration across clouds. Before, companies were limited to running individual applications on a single
cloud provider. MongoDB Atlas multi-cloud clusters enables organizations to extend the geographic reach of their applications by allowing them to replicate data
across all three major cloud providers to any of the currently 79 supported cloud regions worldwide. Multi-cloud clusters also gives organizations the
unprecedented flexibility to seamlessly migrate their data—a typically onerous challenge—from one cloud provider to another to meet the changing needs of their
application or business requirements. MongoDB Atlas multi-cloud clusters lets developers leverage the best offerings from each cloud provider, including services
such as AI, analytics, and serverless development products. For example, an organization running its applications on one cloud provider would be able to easily
use another cloud provider’s AI and machine learning services on its operational data without dealing with the complexity of the movement of data. Additionally,
multi-cloud clusters enables cross-cloud resiliency, which protects against region-wide incidents isolated to a single cloud platform. In such a situation, MongoDB
Atlas can automatically fail over to another cloud serving the same geographic area, preserving low latency access to data and compliance with data residency
requirements.

Merck’s New VirusExpress™ Platform Speeds Development of Cell and
Gene Therapies
25
Merck, a leading science and technology company, has bolstered its viral vector manufacturing capabilities with the launch of its VirusExpress™ Lentiviral
Production Platform. This new platform helps to overcome lentiviral production challenges and can reduce process development time by approximately 40 percent,
based on Merck’s experience as a contract development and manufacturing organization.Using a suspension cell line rather than an adherent-based production,
coupled with a chemically defined cell culture media and process with built-in scalability, Merck’s VirusExpress™ Platform meets multiple market needs. In
addition to accelerating process development, the suspension culture format allows each batch of virus to be larger yielding more patient doses. Additionally,
suspension culture is amenable to true scale-up, while being less labor-intensive. The chemically defined medium eliminates the safety, regulatory and supply chain
concerns related to animal- and human-derived materials.Merck’s VirusExpress™ Platform offers a simplified upstream workflow, making processes easier to
manage, adjust and scale. Flexible licensing allows companies to manufacture vectors by using either Merck’s contract manufacturing capabilities, a third-party
contract development and manufacturing organization, or in-house development.The Life Science business of Merck is a leading contract development and
manufacturing organization combining an integrated portfolio of manufacturing solutions with proven commercialization experience. This new offering
underscores Merck’s continued investment in cell and gene therapies. In April 2020, the company announced a new €100 million, 140,000-square-foot
manufacturing center at its Carlsbad, California, USA, location that will double the existing production capacity and support large-scale commercial
manufacturing., the Life Science business of Merck manufactures vectors for two of the first five FDA-approved cell and gene therapies.

Pega Introduces Value Finder To Better Engage Neglected Customers
26
Pegasystems Inc., the software company empowering digital transformation at the world’s leading enterprises, introduced Value Finder – a new AI-powered capability helping organizations
engage their most underserved customers with messages and offers designed for their specific needs. Part of the Pega Customer Decision Hub™, this capability expands the power of 1:1
customer engagement to ensure all customers get personalized, high-empathy treatment – not just the ‘premier’customers that typically get the most attention. Value Finder helps organizations
bring 1:1 engagement to everyone by ensuring these under-engaged customers receive more relevant offers and messages. The Pega Customer Decision Hub feature makes it easy to identify
and fill critical customer engagement gaps by:
• Identifying underserved customers – First, Value Finder analyzes the customer database to uncover potentially valuable but consistently underserved customers. These are individuals who
typically aren’t targeted within standard marketing campaigns because they don’t qualify under a brand’s standard engagement policies.
• Filling engagement gaps – Then, the software inspects the customer strategy itself to find opportunities to improve engagement with those customers via strategy adjustments or net-new
treatments that will better resonate with their needs.
• Simplifying approvals across teams – With a plan in place, business users can make these changes with speed and confidence by leveraging the integrated 1:1 Operations Manager. This
approvals management feature allows users to easily submit and manage change requests with a simplified workflow that increases speed-to-market for any new actions, policies, and
treatments.
• Optimizing strategies before implementation – Before pushing those changes live, users can simulate various “what-if” scenarios to understand how those strategies and treatments will
perform in market and how they will work within the entire engagement mix. This helps marketers hit specific goals, more accurately forecast results, and uncover any hidden tradeoffs
between options.

and development silos between traditional servers and virtual machines and cloud-native clusters, including Red Hat OpenShift.Ansible Automation Platform1 and
Red Hat OpenShift2 are both leaders in The Forrester Wave™ and are built on leading open source projects in Ansible and Kubernetes, respectively. Launched in
July 2020, Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management helps enterprises better manage and scale OpenShift clusters across the hybrid cloud, lending management
muscle to the industry’s leading enterprise Kubernetes platform. Now, Ansible Automation Platform and Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management can work
hand-in-hand, enabling enterprises to take advantage of the technologies already in use and refine them for a cloud-native future.Application modernization is
among today’s top IT priorities. According to Gartner, "by 2022, only 40% of container management software offerings available in 2019 will still be
competitive/or exist, causing many current product decisions to be tactical3." Red Hat OpenShift provides a powerful, scalable platform for this transformation.
Many organizations, however, cannot afford to simply leave existing IT systems behind, given the investments and critical workloads based on these resources.
With this in mind, many IT teams are forced to split technology stacks and silo teams to address these disparate workflows, each requiring separate tools and
strategies, leading to growing complexity and friction.

Sonatype Introduces Next Generation Dependency Management for

Sonatype, the company that scales DevOps through open source governance and software supply chain automation, unveils its breakthrough Advanced
Development Pack that fundamentally changes how teams manage code dependencies. Designed after studying development and cybersecurity hygiene practices
across 30,000 software teams, this new offering available to Nexus Lifecycle customers, ensures developers select the highest quality OSS components that are
used to build 90% of a modern application.The Advanced Development Pack’s pioneering dependency management enables developers to choose components
based on project quality, ease-of-upgrade, and advanced knowledge of abnormal committer behavior, giving them confidence they’ve chosen the highest quality
component available. It helps developers understand:
• the cost of migrating to a newer or safer version and whether it is possible to do so without breaking their code
• the performance of OSS projects they are choosing when it comes to release frequency, cadence of dependency updates, development team size, and popularity
- helping guide choices to a higher quality pool of components
• the frequency in which dependencies have become vulnerable and are remediated - helping them better grasp the cost and threat of relying on such packages
• when suspicious behavior has been observed in project code commits - providing an early warning to malicious injection attacks from adversaries
With more than 67% of developers regularly impacted when dependency upgrades break the functionality of their application, Sonatype’s Advanced Development
Pack removes the guesswork, and tells developers exactly which dependencies provide the least costly upgrade path in terms of effort.

fortified version of the Nexus Platform was released that meets DoD specifications for security - one of the most demanding certifications.
Third-party and open source software components are the backbone of federal software supply chains. In fact, nearly 90% of a modern
application is composed of third party software components. Since they are free, and readily available, they allow agencies to save time and
money, and in many cases improve software quality. But, not all open source is created equal. Depending on the development language, 10 -
40% of third party components are known to be vulnerable. A project of the U.S. Air Force and the DoD, Platform One, is working to
streamline Authorization to Operate (ATO) processes by providing solutions that are pre-certified and containerized. The hardened versions
of Nexus Lifecycle and Nexus Repository have achieved accreditation with a Certification to Field (Ctf) from the U.S. Air Force Platform One
team. The ATO certification enables DoD and other federal agencies to immediately deploy Sonatype’s Nexus Platform to automatically
manage third party risk with precise intelligence across their entire software development lifecycle (SDLC).

Tidelift Delivers Open Source Vulnerability Data to Subscribers with
Sonatype
41
Tidelift, the largest provider of commercial support and maintenance for the community-led open source behind modern applications, and Sonatype, a
leading provider of open source intelligence, announced that Tidelift has integrated Sonatype’s OSS Index data into the Tidelift Subscription to help
developers more quickly identify and remediate security vulnerabilities in open source packages and libraries managed by Tidelift. Over 92% of
software applications contain open source components and, due to the economic downturn resulting from the global pandemic, 42% of organizations
are likely to accelerate their use of open source. Known vulnerabilities in a library can increase risk of compromise despite a development team’s best
efforts and intentions. This integration enables Tidelift to more rapidly notify its subscribers of cybersecurity issues present in their dependencies and
also provides a fast-track process for remediation through Tidelift’s vast network of independent maintainers. Sonatype’s OSS Index vulnerability data
provides developers with foundational vulnerability information and the ability to better identify and remediate security risks for components managed
by Tidelift. OSS Index contains aggregate data from a variety of vulnerability information sources, including:
• Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) entries;
• A growing list of public vulnerability sources;
• Community contributions.

Tricentis Introduces Next Generation AI-Powered Test Automation
42
Tricentis, the world’s #1 testing platform for modern cloud and enterprise applications, announced Vision AI, the core technology that will now power Tosca. Vision AI
is the industry’s most advanced AI-based test design and automation technology which allows organizations to address the needs brought about by the increasing
prevalence of cloud-native and enterprise application platforms. This new AI-based approach marks the beginning of a new era of test automation. Test automation
technology has evolved from script-based, to model-based, and is now moving towards AI-based approaches. This new approach will enable agile and DevOps teams to
build automated test cases much earlier in the development process – starting with only a mockup or a low-fidelity prototype. Using self-healing capabilities to adapt
tests as applications change from sprint to sprint removes bottlenecks and delivers software innovation faster. For the first time, test-driven development can now be
achieved end-to-end at the business process level.
Tricentis’AI-driven approach allows organizations to solve the following test automation challenges:
• Heavy application customization. Current test automation solutions don’t support both legacy and modern cloud-native technologies which require heavy
customization and refactoring, resulting in increased costs spent on acquiring complex tools.
• Support for virtual and remote applications. Whether due to regulation or other concerns, many teams are forced to rely on virtual or remote applications (i.e. Citrix,
VMware, etc.). However, traditional test automation solutions do not work for remote or virtual applications, resulting in a reliance on manual testing.
• Testing and test automation occur too late in the process. Traditionally, applications have had to be built before any test automation can be created. As a result, test
teams are always a step behind developers and risk becoming a bottleneck to application delivery.

AppDirect Listed as a Sample Vendor in Gartner Hype Cycle Report for
Procurement
43
AppDirect®, the leading subscription commerce platform company, announced that it has been included as a sample vendor
in the recent Gartner Hype Cycle for Procurement and Sourcing Solutions, 2020. In the Hype Cycle for Procurement and
Sourcing Solutions report, Garter identified AppDirect as a sample vendor in the Tail Spend Procurement category. As
Gartner explains: "Tail spend procurement solutions can unlock additional savings for the procurement organization. Actively
managing tail spend increases spend visibility and coverage, operational efficiency and improves purchasing controls. End
users can still make one time purchases they require to do their jobs without adding to procurement’s workload. Integrating
tail spend procurement solutions into existing procurement technology organizations drives purchasing policy compliance
and reduces risk."AppDirect’s subscription commerce platform enables employees to make software and hardware purchases
within a dedicated procurement marketplace. Consisting of a curated catalog, each marketplace integrates with customers’
existing pay-to-procure systems and policies to deliver purchasing control and visibility into tail spend.
