I recently attended a technology summit in London. Quite an
interesting one, which I will write about in the next few days.
I was part of the CAB (Customer Advisory Board) of the technology vendor
who actually organized the summit.
One of the key questions that arose at the CAB meeting was around innovation. What do
you need to innovate? What are the key factors that you find
important for innovation?
I didn’t have to think much about the answer, given that I’m
actually facing it every day.
Rapid prototyping is becoming a key factor for innovation.
In the era of SAAS explosion all the software features are out there.
We are no longer developing features, we are composing features
offered by different vendors.
Composing working applications through services orchestration is now faster
than ever. Tools for rapid prototyping of service composition will
play a key role in the future of innovation
Customers are asking everyday for working prototypes “Give me
something that I can see and use rather than showing me another power
point”, was a recent comment I heard.
Showing a working prototype on a mobile device, an IPad or Android
tablet rather than on a power point, can be that difference that
will make your innovative idea stick.
That’s what it does, rather than that’s what I promise it will
do.
