Many senior IT folks now a days wants to join MDM, SMAC or BIG Data to enhance their career, and to gain the knowledge they start absorbing the basic of these new technologies by participating in meetings aligned across these technologies.
Some people even go to attend the different university training also (like Oracle University, SAP, Informatica etc).
But is it enough for them? Some people will say yes, as they are senior enough and can understand the basics of these new technologies.
I would say BIG NO...People who are coming from different technological domain needs time to prepare for these technologies and to attain the basic I would say it would require at least a Month.
Advise to them to scale up quickly

- Internet is flooded with Blogs on MDM, BIG DATA and SMAC. go and read those blogs...Blogs are meant for you people only.
- Don’t rely on your principal architect as question can be asked from you as well ,the winning chance to get the projects becomes more if you impresses the client rather than your principal architect.
- While discussing the matter with in your team please listens more and speaks less. Senior Management having a tendency to speak more but better if you listen to your experts and ask questions.
- Once you get any projects please asses if you really have required skill set.project can be won by showing number strength, but now customers are more demanding and instead of numbers they can ask how many experts you have in these technologies so before starting a project you should have at least few technology and few domain expert sitting beside to you.
- Please also perform the profit feasibility study in case you are hiring resources from outside if you have enough number of projects in pipeline going forward to make them deployable always.
- Start training junior and Mid Junior resources in these new technologies and these are the peoples, you will require most in project execution.
