I can get ROI from a pure technical
Digital Experience implementation,
right?

Major travel company wanted to rebuild reservation app
• Each second in call handle time translates to $108,000 per year
• Existing reservation app was an X Windows desktop app, let’s rewrite it in a web app
Call handle time went up 22 seconds when the system went live
• Instant ROI of negative 2.3 million per year!
• Does not include cost of hardware, software, or labor
Let’s Start with what NOT to do!
Amplify 20173
• Simply approached the project as a “like for like” re-platform
• Did not spend time to learn how reservations agents did their job
• Did not do any usability testing
• Did not have the right technical skills on the project
What went wrong?

Performance “We are launching in a week and performance is slow.
Perhaps we should run a test.”

Does performance really get you ROI?

calculated that a page load slowdown of just one second could cost it $1.6 billion in sales each year.
calculated that by slowing its search results by just four tenths of a second they could lose 8 million searches per day.

• Consider Performance in Every Decision You Make
• Caching: Nothing matters more!
• Browser caching
• Web server caching
• Markup caching
• WCM caching
• Object caching
• Performance Testing and Tuning
• Start with realistic base scenarios
• Test, monitor, tune and retest
• Have the right technical roles to support testing
• Make sure to monitor in production
• Asynchronous page rendering (Ajax) with modern UI frameworks
• User experience impacts performance

How does performance get me ROI?
Well, the list is endless…
• Better customer experience leads to greater conversions, higher satisfaction and repeat business
• Lower support costs
• IT can focus on innovation and business value instead of tuning

Agile Development“We estimate we deliver projects 30% quicker using Agile vs Waterfall.”
Amplify 201717
• Large DX project with multiple phases over a couple of years
• Project team was ready to go
• Client said “You need to adhere to our gating process.”
Following a methodology for the methodology’s sake
Amplify 201718
This is how it was described
• 30% increase in project time
• No flexibility for change
• Business grew increasingly frustrated
• Missed deadlines
Following a methodology for the methodology’s sake
Amplify 201719
This is what the gating process felt like
“If we didn’t use Agile, we would still be developing today.”
Amplify 201720
Think “Inside the Box”Digital Experience is a Toolbox, Know what is in it.
Amplify 201721
Don’t spend money to build when you can use product capabilities.

Capability Benefits
Personalization Engine • Visibility rules• Content selection• Device profiling
Watson Content Hub (Available to DX 9.0)
• Cloud based content as a service• Technology agnostic• Multi-channel content delivery• Intuitive authoring
Script Application • Develop in modern scripting technologies• Technology agnostic• Still can leverage portal APIs, WCM tags
and security
Extension Points • Modular themes, page parameters, resource environment providers, login filters, Dynacache, property extension DB, etc.
Modern Development Techniques

4-6 weeks to deliver a simple code change?
41% experience delays in integration, configuration and testing of applications
Delays of 41%for installing and configuring applications
Up to 50% of applications get rolled back in production
45% experience delays due to troubleshooting and fine-tuning issues in production
3-4 weeks avg. time to isolate defects
Where are you on the maturity scale?

DevOps Perspective
Amplify 201728
1. DevOps is about transforming application development and delivery in order to accelerate digital innovation. So DevOps is a topic for both business and IT roles in the organization.
2. You don’t buy DevOps, you do DevOps. DevOps is an approach, a mindset – a combination of culture, process and technology
(including infrastructure, tools and services).
3. DevOps is not only about the hand-off between Development and Operations. DevOps is about applying lean and agile
principles across the application delivery lifecycle (biz-dev-test/QA-deploy-operate) to achieve continuous delivery.
Key concepts: automation, feedback loops, continuous integration, continuous testing, continuous deploy, agile/scrum/iterative
