Jeff Cotrupe has launched the Business Agility initiative at MongoDB, and as shown above, it joins the company’s three existing initiatives: Legacy Modernization, Data as a Service, and Cloud Strategy. These initiatives combine people, processes, and technology to help companies implement digital transformation.

Achieving business agility is not optional for companies today. It is essential for organizations to survive amidst rapidly-changing markets, customer requirements, and competitive landscapes, where competitors are using data to disrupt entire industries. The good news is that MongoDB understands the challenges companies face and is helping them create competitive advantage, accelerate time to value, and reduce TCO and risk. Becoming an agile organization is enabling MongoDB customers to build new business functionality 3-5x faster, scale to millions of users wherever they are at any moment, and slash costs by 70% or more.

Cotrupe is a member of the Product Marketing team responsible for driving solutions marketing and GTM content positioning UVP of product/services portfolio to a senior audience; and is part of a globally distributed team reporting to Senior Director, Products and Solutions, based in London. “Everyone I have met at MongoDB is a strong individual contributor,” Cotrupe said, “but it is through exceptional teamwork that we truly unleash the power of our combined contributions. My boss, Mat Keep, teammate Eric Holzhauer, Seong Park, who leads product marketing and developer advocacy, and colleagues from the Professional Services team, Jon Rangel and Brad Jacobs, deserve a great deal of thanks and credit for expert content review and input to optimize the impact of this initiative.”

Cotrupe’s product marketing and sales enablement content creation in support of the business agility initiative thus far includes Web content; a customer ready presentation; a series of 13 sales training videos and accompanying quiz questions; pipeline generation emails crafted for specific department and title targets; a white paper on achieving business agility; and a datasheet on how MongoDB’s Professional Services organization works with clients to build an Innovation Accelerator and provides them with Innovation Solution Kits to accelerate application development and optimize their development teams and processes going forward. Cotrupe is continuing to develop a range of other content and programs in support of business agility.

Jeff Cotrupe: Everyone Wants “Real-time Analytic Insights”–but Which Architecture Will Get You There?

“When it comes to real-time analytics, feeds and speeds are important, but the key point is this: if an organization has any employee, anywhere, who needs to take an important action but cannot because he or she is ‘waiting for data,’ the organization needs faster data,” said Jeff Cotrupe in a recent Stratecast report. The report, Everyone Wants “Real-time Analytic Insights”–but Which Architecture Will Get You There?, asserts that broad agreement exists that real-time analytics are essential to the survival and prosperity of the organization. In particular, financial markets, adtech, cybersecurity, and others now find themselves competing in ‘the millisecond economy,’ where survival is no longer possible without putting the freshest insights at the fingertips of their people.

Hyperbole and a lack of clarity about what to deploy, however, represent significant barriers to entry. The array of technology choices, the lack of clarity around those choices, and the organizational positioning and politics surrounding those choices constitute a barrier to adoption—creating confusion and indecision in the marketplace.

The report equips organizations to make the right decisions in this environment by analyzing Apache open source technologies that form the foundation of many real-time analytics deployments today; optimal architectures for real-time analytics; and strategies of some of the companies Cotrupe and Stratecast consider the leading providers in the space–and offers definitive recommendations on how buyers should proceed.

Venues where the report is currently featured include in Digital Journal; on the GigaSpaces blog; on LinkedIN; on Twitter; and more.
