Josef Langerman, Head of IT Transformation for Standard Bank, reflected on the extraordinary transformation that his organization’s IT group had recently experienced. Over the past three years, Standard Bank’s IT group had changed from the relatively well accepted systems development lifecycle/waterfall model to a revolutionary large scale agile approach. The results had been gratifying. But it left a question unanswered. Now that things were starting to stabilize, what should be the next steps? The 154-year-old Standard Bank was the largest banking group in Africa, and the 5 largest company headquartered in South Africa. The bank offered a range of corporate, business and personal banking as well as financial services. Its 49,000 employees served over 15 million customers, in 20 countries across the continent of Africa, as well as other countries scattered around the globe.
Josef Langerman, Standard Bank的IT转型主管，回顾了他所在组织的IT团队最近经历的非凡转型。在过去的三年中，Standard Bank的IT团队已经从相对较好接受的系统开发生命周期/瀑布模型转变为革命性的大规模敏捷方法。结果令人满意。但它留下了一个悬而未决的问题。既然情况开始稳定下来，下一步应该做什么?拥有154年历史的标准银行是非洲最大的银行集团，也是总部设在南非的第五大公司。该银行提供一系列公司、商业和个人银行业务以及金融服务。其49,000名员工为非洲大陆20个国家以及全球其他国家的1500多万客户提供服务。

This teaching case focuses on a start-up company in the Web analytics and online advertising space, which faces a database scaling challenge. The case covers the rapidly emerging NoSQL database products that can be used to implement very large distributed databases. These are exciting times in the database marketplace, with a flock of new companies offering scalable database systems for the cloud. These products challenge existing relational database vendors that have come to dominate the market. The case outlines four potential solutions and asks students to make a choice or suggest a different alternative to meet database scaling goals.

Dr. T.

Not being able to respond, he ignored it until—a couple of days later—he was notified that access to his personal website had been suspended (see Exhibit 1). Grandon.com had, once again, been hacked--for the 7 time.

Dr. Leonid Perlovsky, distinguished physicist and cognitive scientist, pondered this question, which could have a significant impact on his research direction in the years to come. Over the past few decades, he had developed and refined algorithms for distinguishing objects in images, an approach that had found its way into various classified U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) applications. Now he was looking for new potential opportunities to see his research applied, allowing it to evolve further. One of the most interesting aspects of Perlovsky’s approach was that it was very similar to that taken by the human brain in processing sensory information. It began with a very vague model of what might or might not be present in the data being examined. Through successive iterations, analogous to the layers of processing used in human sensory systems, the patterns in the data corresponding to objects would grow more and more distinct until, finally, they became recognizable. Unlike most statistical techniques, this approach— termed “dynamic logic” by Perlovsky—did not require that a model be specified in advance. As such, it was well suited for contexts that required discovery.

Grandon Gill, Academic Director of the Doctorate of Business Administration Program (DBA) at the University of South Florida’s (USF) Muma College of Business pondered the email he had just sent to Moez Limayem, the dean of the college (see Exhibit 1). In that email, he had raised the possibility of developing a version of the college’s highly successful DBA program specifically targeting cybersecurity professionals. He also noted the possibility of funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to help cover the costs of launching the program.

J. Hoecker, D. Bernal, Alex Brito, Arda Ergonen, Richard Stiftinger
After 28 years of public service, the Information Technology Bureau Chief for the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD), Dr. Steven Dicks, was still passionate about serving the public. By first focusing on the needs of people in the District, Dr. Dicks was able to objectively observe the many aspects of operations for which he was responsible. His observations led him to believe that the use of technology within his organization wasn’t as effective and efficient as he knew it could be.
