Signore e signori. Io di solito parlo di trasformazione digitale. Tuttavia, dal momento che sono a Roma, ho pensato che avrei potuto parlare di digitale da un'altra prospettiva. Perché non un Rinascimento Digitale?
Mi chiamo John Newton. Sono il fondatore di Alfresco. Ho lavorato con Content Management per molto, molto tempo. Questo sono io sul piedistallo.
Mi sembra come 400 anni fa, che ho iniziato Documentum con il mio co-fondatore Howard Shao. In realtà, è stato solo 25 anni fa.
Da allora, ho dimenticato tutto il mio italiano, quindi penso di parlare inglese.

IDC Report “The Knowledge Quotient: Unlocking the Hidden Value of Information Using Search & Content Analytics,” 2014
the average worker only finds the information he needs 56% of the time. (44 percent of the time, workers can’t find the information required to do their jobs)
Given that workers spend nearly 36% of their time consolidating and looking for information, this dramatically impacts a company’s bottom line.

Cloud Adoption
http://www.forbes.com/sites/louiscolumbus/2014/11/22/cloud-computing-adoption-continues-accelerating-in-the-enterprise/
According to an article from Forbes, reporting on IDG Enterprise Cloud Computing Study 2014, 69 percent of enterprises have at least one application or a portion of its computing infrastructure in the cloud.

Incorporate emerging technologies
We also changed how we build applications
The last few months we have changed from har wired to configurable apps
By bringing together the case model of contracts, the process a user follows, and ui widgets we created a appliation template
This allows you to reconfigure the app
Biut also it allows us and 3rd parties to build new apps
We are invest more in this area of making apps being configurable templates
We call them smart apps because we want to make it smarter and easier fir users to solve problems but without comprozibg compliance
We are planning to take advantage of content analytics as well as capture and collaborative tools
