    NCES E-Collabcenter Ending in June

    Word is that E-Collabcenter, IBM's NCES Collaboration Service offering (also referred to as "Button 1") will be shutting down in early June.  This comes from a notice on their home page. E-Collabcenter was the first of two NCES Collaboration Services acquired by DISA.  The intent was to foster competition between the vendors so that enhancements would come quicker in order to capture the DoD market.  The second service or "button" called Defense Connect Online (DCO) is based off of Adobe Connect and utilizes XMPP for IM/Presence. The question is, will DISA purchase a third button, or extend DCO?

  • Kevin Heald's Space

    I grew up as a techie and first got hooked using an old Texas Instruments programming in Basic ("Hello World" app is my fav) and then learned the fun of "integration" making my PCjr actually run the old Sierra games I wanted to play. After a lot of fun at college, I found myself entrenched in the government technology world leading projects and integrating systems for the past 11+ years. I have extensive experience in technical project management, Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), Collaboration Technologies, Information Sharing, and Secure Systems Integration.
