Acquired Hedgehog!
Sitecore Announces Intention to Acquire Hedgehog, Plans Expanded Support for Partner Ecosystem to Help Accelerate Digital Transformation Initiatives for Customers
At the moment, I still feel, the heart of sitecore and main driver for them is Sitecore CMS engine which is what the main area of progress. Right now Sitecore is trying to jump into so many things that is very hard to create a good marketplace unless its so called chosen MVPs drive it to its great potential. That I think is next to impossible.
There are lot of loop holes and gaps how Sitecore select its MVPs. If you look at how Microsoft select and get its MVPs is based on lot of criteria. Not to go too much into this right now.
What my intent is what Sitecore should now? Why sitecore investment in cortex, ecommerce and other digital stuff needs thorough lookout.
Small things can do wonders for Sitecore:-
1. Sitecore may include glass mapper to it
2. Sitecore should focus on SXA . I think it is got potentials
3. Sitecore should revamp cms UI and make it more fluid. Content Author not liking the old use interface, usabiility and other stuff.
Big Bang ! Dot Net Core
Sitecore should move to .net core as soon as possible, Lot of things to get going. It has huge savings in terms of infrastructure, performance, availability and scalable.
