Personalization - before you begin
Most websites can benefit from personalization in one way or another. But there are some things you should consider before you jump in and rethink the way users interact with your website.
Personalization can be a very powerful tool to drive the bottom line of your digital business. This can mean different things to different websites. An ad driven revenue model will benefit from more pageviews per session, a lead generation site will benefit from faster and more conversions and so on. Depending on the model you’ll need a different strategy to hit your goals. Let’s find out how we can... Mehr

Digital Leaders Discuss the Future of Media
Here in New York City, I’m fortunate to have direct access to leaders who are developing the future of media and entertainment. Some of these executives work at our Acquia customers here in the city; NBCUniversal and Warner Music come to mind. Others are old friends who I’ve met along the way in my career in media at companies like Dow Jones and CBS Interactive.
This year we have started to gather these talents at a monthly meet-up in New York City, so that we can all learn from each other and discuss the latest digital media trends. Last month when we met up at The Ace Hotel, sidebar... Mehr

Making Drupal 8 fly
In my travels to talk about Drupal, everyone asks me about Drupal 8's performance and scalability. Modern websites are much more dynamic and interactive than 10 years ago, making it more difficult to build modern sites while also being fast. It made me realize that maybe I should write up a summary of some of the most exciting performance and scalability improvements in Drupal 8. After all, Drupal 8 will leapfrog many of its competitors in terms of how to architect and scale modern web... Mehr

5 Questions CFOs Should Be Asking About Digital Transformation
2014 was the year of digital transformation. Digital excellence is no longer simply a way to outperform competitors, it is table-stakes for the long term existence of businesses.
Research firm Gartner just released its 2015 CIO agenda, a survey of over 2800 global CIOs who represent nearly $400 billion in IT spending. Their primary finding?

Marketing Cloud Vendor Promises Probably Don’t Fit Your Digital Reality
As organizations march toward a digital-first future, it can be hard to resist the lure of digital marketing “suites” or “clouds” many software vendors are offering.
If you’re in the market for new digital technology, fair warning. There’s a one-two-three punch waiting to surprise buyers that can derail your digital transformation plans.
The lure of the vision: Marketing cloud vendors describe a persuasive picture of how all their digital marketing applications and customer experience tools get packed into a unified package to benefit buyers. It’s a compelling promise of complete... Mehr

Pinterest To Add Buy Button and Win Commerce Forever?
The Verge reported yesterday that Pinterest is soon adding a “buy” button. Users will be able to purchase products directly from pinned items, without leaving the Pinterest site. I’ll readily admit that I’ve never used Pinterest. But what makes Pinterest great, so I hear, is that it’s really fun to use and it hasn’t lost its focus on delivering a beautiful visual experience. Let’s face it, even on a good day using Facebook is a chore, and on a bad day, Facebook can be downright... Mehr

Acquia’s Momentum: An Ex-Analyst Reviews The 2015 Forrester WCM Wave
Forrester just published “The Forrester Wave: Web Content Management Systems, Q1 2015,” by Ted Schadler, who calls WCM “the backbone of digital experiences.” Here at Acquia we don’t think that’s an overstatement. The report also states that WCM has become “a multifaceted toolkit for building, managing, delivering, and optimizing digital experiences, the bedrock of your business technology agenda.” We’re on board with that, too.
Today’s WCM decision makers discover a crowded vendor market trying to deliver all this digital capability. The 2015 Forrester Wave analyzes the top 10 WCM vendors and... Mehr
