AI is reshaping digital experiences, and not always in the way organizations expected. While generative AI has accelerated content creation, the real challenge has shifted to delivering personalized, trustworthy experiences at scale.

In this Q&A, Pierre Azzam, Founder and CEO of Belong, explores why governance, structured content and operational maturity matter just as much as AI itself, and what organizations can do today to prepare for a future of adaptive, AI-driven digital experiences.

“The companies that are developing their people-generated muscles right now are the ones that are going to be strong and resilient for that new era.”

In this episode of 10 Minute Martech, Heike Young, consultant, speaker and content creator, joins host Sara Faatz to explore the future of content marketing in an AI-driven world.

From storytelling and innovation to audience-first content creation, Heike makes the case that, while technology will continue to evolve, the marketers who succeed will be the ones who double down on the uniquely human skills that AI cannot replicate.

Organizations need to modernize faster than ever. Cloud applications are transforming analytics, customer experiences and core business systems, but legacy infrastructure isn’t disappearing overnight. The reality for most businesses is a hybrid environment where cloud platforms, on-premises systems and external partners must all work together.

This reality was the focus of a recent Progress webinar on agent-based file transfer and how Progress Automate MFT is designed to support distributed file workflows. Rather than requiring a large-scale transformation, the discussion centered on a practical approach to modernization: centralized orchestration with execution that happens where it makes the most sense.

Whenever I think about the word “brand” these days, I’m thinking about the complete picture people form of one, and how much of that picture is now shaped outside its direct control.

That concept isn’t new. People have always formed their own opinions. Word of mouth existed long before the internet, along with reviews, recommendations and all the informal ways perception takes shape and spreads.

Kentico Xperience 13 migration is now a time-bound CMS decision for banks and credit unions. It affects more than page migration. The choice can change how marketing publishes, how developers manage reusable work, how IT governs the environment and how compliance reviews digital content.

For some financial institutions, moving to Xperience by Kentico will be the practical path. A clean Kentico 13 implementation, a strong Kentico partner and a marketing group already working well in the Kentico ecosystem may make that route sensible. But it should be an evaluated decision, not an automatic one.

The key question is not only, “What replaces Kentico 13?” It is:

Which CMS gives our bank or credit union the best operating model after the migration?...

If you built on Ragie, you made a reasonable bet: fast API integration, solid multimodal support and developer-friendly onboarding. We expect finding out it's shutting down mid-build is a genuine pain. But forced migrations have a way of surfacing the limitations you'd quietly worked around: per-user pricing that was starting to add up, no built-in retrieval quality evaluation and compliance requirements you'd been deferring.

That changes for you with the Progress Agentic RAG solution. You get Python and JavaScript SDKs, a REST API, 30+ retrieval strategies and REMi: a built-in evaluation model that automatically scores every output for relevance, context and groundedness. Migrating isn't starting over—it's a port with real upgrades included. The rest of this guide walks through what that transition actually looks like....

I recently saw a post talking about Home Depot’s new suite of AI tools for shoppers. It got me thinking:

We already have AI powering much of our omnichannel marketing capabilities behind the scenes. Are we taking things too far by incorporating user-facing AI features into the omnichannel experience?

In other words, are we adding AI on the frontend because we assume it’ll be just as beneficial to them as it is to us? Or are there real advantages to equipping users with their own set of AI technologies throughout their journey?

This post is going to be an exploration of omnichannel marketing, the invaluable role AI has played in the background and suggestions on how and when to add AI features as another layer to the frontend experience.

Ontology management and knowledge graph design skills are back in demand, largely driven by AI. LLMs are powerful, but they struggle to consistently understand domain-specific concepts and stay aligned to business rules. AI agents amplify this challenge because they act on that understanding. Ontologies help address these gaps by providing structure, shared meaning, context and constraints, so systems stay aligned and decisions remain sound.

Open your firewall logs. Filter for outbound TLS connections from the server hosting your “on-premises” file transfer setup to anything in your vendor’s cloud range. Count them. If the number surprises you, the architecture you bought and the architecture you’re running aren’t the same thing.

If you don’t have firewall logs that capture this, that’s the first finding.
