Social Listening with Node-RED & IBM Silverpop
Fri, Jan 2nd 2015 11:11a Vincent Perrin
IBM Silverpop, Node-RED, Bluemix, System of Engagement, Social, Twitter, Mobile... What is the link between all of these words/solutions/concepts? Basically, systems of engagement refers to the transition from current enterprise systems designed around discrete pieces of information ("records") to systems which are more decentralized, incorporate technologies which encourage peer interactions, and which often leverage cloud technologies to provide the capabilities to enable those interactions. |

Fri, Jan 2nd 2015 11:11a Vincent Perrin
To enrich the previous prototype "Social listening with Node-RED & Silverpop" based on a comment from @Bollaert, Benjamin, I have designed a new node to retrieve Klout score of a twitto. Klout is a website and mobile app that uses social media analytics to rank its users according to online social influence via the "Klout Score", which is a numerical value between 1 and 100. In determining the user score, Klout measures the size of a user's social media network and correlates the conte |

OpenWeather & Node-RED
Fri, Jan 2nd 2015 11:10a Vincent Perrin
A new example of the easiness of Node-RED. I want to easily leverage an open API : OpenWeather to have access to weather forecast. So, I have designed a custom node leveraging the API, and that's it.My flow is very simple but I can easily reuse it for other flows.- Code of the flow: https://github.com/vperrinfr/node-RED/blob/master/Flows/OpenWeather.json- Code of the custom node: https://github.com/vperrinfr/node-RED/tree/master/Nodes/OpenWeatherMap |

In a previous article (IBM Interact & Mobile Push Notification), I have illustrated how you can leverage IBM Mobile Push Notification service APIs to contextually send push notification on mobile from a web front-office application. I have now extended my front-office application to allow a customer advisor to send newsletter (promotion, new offering,...) leveraging IBM Silverpop APIs.

IBM Mobile Push Notification plugin for Google Chrome
Wed, Nov 19th 2014 7:12a Vincent Perrin
I published this week an article illustrating the use of IBM Mobile Push Notification in Node-RED context (here). To do that, I leveraged its set of APIs. Open public APIs simplify cross-product integration to provide an end-to-end solution, but can also provide an easier, contextual solution: Using a solution in the context of my work, a way to use a service without switching from one app to another. I created a Google Chrome plugin allowing you to easily push notification of mobile app levera |

Node-RED, IBM Mobile Push Notification (Xtify) & Bluemix
Tue, Nov 18th 2014 2:17p Vincent Perrin
Today, I investigated Node-RED. Node-RED is a tool for wiring together hardware devices, APIs and online services in new and interesting ways. It has been developed by IBM Emerging Technology. Node-RED User InterfaceNode-RED is available on on-premise or directly on IBM Bluemix. Node-RED provides by default several nodes like Social (twitter, IRC, XMPP...), Hardware (Raspberry Pi,...), Storage (FileSystem, MySQL...), as well as IBM Mobile Push and Watson services on Bluemix.

IBM Interact is real-time interaction management software. It determines, in real-time, the best personalized message for each live customer interaction. Can we imagine to link IBM Interact with Mobile Push notification. IBM provides a flexible, easier-to-use environment (IBM Mobile Push Notification) for creating notification campaigns that engage mobile app users at the optimal time and place.

It is now two months since I left Polycom. It has been a great experience. But, after two and half years at Polycom and more than ten years in the Collaboration market, I have accepted a new position at IBM in the Digital Marketing solution. I now take care of all IBM Enterprise Marketing Management solutions (IBM Experience suite of products) like former Unica Suite, Xtify (Mobile Push Notification) and Silverpop (email marketing and marketing automation).

[Lab] Polycom Conference Manager for Google Chrome
Fri, Jul 18th 2014 6:12a Vincent Perrin
Two weeks ago, I illustrated how to develop a PHP (server-side) application, leveraging Polycom DMA APIs, to easily control a Polycom on-going conference (here). That app doesn't require admin credentials, so an end-user can use it via its own credentials, but he needs to have a PHP server. So, to simplify the use of that service, I adapted that aplication to be usable as a Google Chrome App. So, now anhy end-user can install that "local" app on its Google Chrome browser, and uses it.

[Lab] Video Meeting Tracker
Mon, Jul 7th 2014 6:12a Vincent Perrin
To drive a better user adoption and to improve customer satisfaction, it could be interesting in retrieving feedback from users. Based on Polycom APIs, you can track meeting activities like when a meeting starts, stops, who is the owner and participants. I have design a small app, tracking meetings and sending an email recap at the end of the meeting to the owner, with a link to a survey. |

During the last two years, I have demonstrated Polycom APIs infrastructure value through several examples like VMR-user Management, CloudAXIS scheduling, IBM Sametime integration, but I only played with REST APIs. But, I had a request - display a message during the conference, I can't solve via DMA or Resource Manager API, I had to use Polycom Collaboration Server (RMX) ---- XML-based API.

If you are doing IBM Softphone integration with a third party SIP server like Polycom DMA, you could face that error: 404 User Not Found. First of all, you have to read the document named "IBM Sametime 8.5.2 Unified Telephony Lite Client troubleshooting guide" (here). A good port configuration is important. 404 error can be cause by a misconfiguration of Virtual Hosts. 1/ Check the SIP ports configured on the application server and fix the VH settings accordingly (remove the redundant SIP por |

According lot of analysts and vendors, The WebRTC revolution has begun. Polycom, as one of the spearhead of Standard and interoperability, is ready to make WebRTC possible (here). But, in my humble opinion, the technology is not the revolution, the use cases are. It will change the way people use video technology, outside tradition rooms. One year ago, Polycom has delivered in the market the perfect product to start that revolution: Polycom CloudAXIS, a Web-enabler & Video Enabled Business |

One of my leitmotiv at Polycom is the User Experience (UX) and how APIs can improve the UX for end-users even more. In the past, I have develop some app like a "Chrome Extension for Polycom RealPresence CloudAXIS" or show you how to leverage Human Capital (IBM Kenexa) with Polycom technology. This week, I have develop a new mock-up based on a mobile application and NFC technology.

I became a fan of Google Chrome development capabilities.

The purpose of that extension is to be able, from the Google Chrome UX, to create an ad-hoc and scheduled meeting. I have published that extension in the Google Chrome WebStore.
