The Nature of Evolution New innovations often become the platform for future innovations. Since then, Google Maps has become the foundation for many other innovations after being opened up to developers via APIs. In Wardley lingo, Google Maps is so efficient that it acts as a building block for higher-order systems (e.g.

Increased time spent on innovation. This may result in unnecessary troubleshooting exercises and finger-pointing, not to mention wasted time and money. Those in the boardroom have just as much to gain from adopting APM solutions as those on the front lines of DevOps efforts. Better user experiences. Increasing revenue.

I recall a question I posed to Nicole Bryan (now Tasktop’s Chief Product Officer) in those early days: If Tasktop provides the information highway for data to flow faster between collaborators, why don’t we also provide metrics and analytics on the speed and efficiency of their work? Her answer: It’s coming. . And it has.

Centralized purchasing found efficiencies by standardizing roles and position specifications and granting preferred partner status to contract labor firms. In theory, standardized buying lifted the burden of negotiation from individual department managers and found cost efficiencies for the company. It's not a hotbed of innovation.

Isn't this the very existential threat that leaders of incumbent companies are supposed to be responding to through inventive and innovative means? The incumbent can reap the benefits of change without needing to lead the change, all through exercising its market power and access to finance. That seems like a paradox.

Platforms are conceptually popular with investors: in theory, a platform makes the mundane portions of a business efficient, scalable and adaptable, allowing a company to release the creative talents of its people to pursue growth and innovation. Employees will see replatforming as an exercise in re-creating software.

Large projects like browser engines also exercise governance through a hierarchy of "OWNER bits," which explicitly name engineers empowered to permit changes in a section of the codebase. But is HR cost efficiency for Apple the most important feature of a web engine? What isn't beneficial is unused diversity potential.

The idea that preventing browser innovation is pro-user is particularly risible, leading to entirely avoidable catch-22 scenarios for developers and users. When working well — efficiently applying unobjectionable policy — store screening is invisible to everyone but developers. bank passwords).

An economic model that assesses the extent to which a firm has market power would be substantially an academic exercise. These are real and significant business benefits: indeed, making competitors react by destabelising their agenda is of exponentially greater value than that of the innovations themselves.

We are constantly innovating on video encoding technology at Netflix, and we have a lot of content to encode. This is just one of many use cases that MezzFS supports, but all the use cases share a similar theme: stream the right bits of a remote object efficiently and expose those bits as a file on the filesystem.
