SAP poaches from Cognos
SAP Australia and New Zealand has poached two key staff from Cognos, according to Australian IT.
Kim Andrews and Simon Yannopoulos will drive adoption of SAP`s Office of the CFO systems, which include governance, risk and compliance and corporate performance management.
Yannopoulos has taken up the position of solution architect, based in Brisbane. Andrews joins as a specialist solutions sales executive for SAP Australia and New Zealand.
Governance falls short
Nearly nine out of 10 large enterprises have insufficient governance over service-oriented architecture (SOA) deployments, a new survey has found, says Network World.
Most SOA services go into production without governance, even though IT executives realise this puts them at significant risk, according to the survey results.
The survey involved 1 300 members of the SOA Forum, an industry consortium for IT executives, mainly from Fortune 500 companies, large enterprises and government agencies.
Top governance players announced
Comverse Technology`s chairman of the board, Mark Terrell, has been named to the inaugural Directorship 100 list of key players in corporate governance, reports TMC Net.
The list appears in Directorship magazine, following a selection process involving a board of advisers, reader surveys, and the magazine`s editors.
According to Directorship: "Comverse was among the first companies to adopt a proxy-access bylaw, and Terrell could transform the company into a model of good governance."
