Feed: Logicworks. Author: Lindsay Syhakhom; Teachers do more than just teach. They’re also asked to be social workers, a medical triage team, psychologists, and more. It also falls on teachers to record the issues of kids with specialneeds in their classrooms, often hours after such issues have occurred. This data may only then make it to parents and administrators weeks or months later, resulting in more pressure on teachers and inadequate data to appropriately address issues. In 2018, Nikody Keating launched mytaptrack to help teachers quickly and easily track the issues of kids with special needs. Rather than manually filling ... Read More

Feed: Oracle Blogs | Oracle Blogs. My wife and I are moving into a new house, and my wife has her heart set on a new refrigerator. It’s a modern appliance, but it’s styled like a 1950s refrigerator: rounded corners, levered handles, single door or double doors, and offered in a selection of solid retro colors, such as fire-engine red, lime green, or turquoise. It’s an example of a concept that the manufacturing industry has been wrestling with for many years: mass customization. And it’s a far cry from the days when you could buy a Ford Model-T in any ...

Feed: AWS Partner Network (APN) Blog. Author: AWS Admin. By David Westrom, VP of Business Development at MachineMetricsBy Graham Immerman, Director of Marketing at MachineMetricsThe Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) space is hot right now, as manufacturing represents perhaps the largest greenfield opportunity left for digitization. Yet, IoT platform implementations have historically had a high rate of failure within this vertical. What’s contributing to these failure rates, and what needs to change? In this post, we examine common approaches for enabling Industrial IoT initiatives, the pros and cons, and their culpability for the high failure rate. We then introduce a ... Read More

Feed: Blog – Hazelcast. Author: Dan Ortega. The Open Banking initiative, also referred to as PSD2 (Payment Services Directive), is a textbook example of streaming technology applied to modern banking requirements. In this model, banks (primarily in Europe) are required to make their back-end systems for customer accounts and payment services available to other members of the financial payment ecosystem. While this is a consumer-friendly initiative, from a bank’s perspective the broader transactional ecosystem has effectively been force-integrated into their operational systems.  This essentially means a significant increase in sources of streaming data from a more diverse range of service ...

Feed: Radar. Author: Mac Slocum. Editor's note: Welcome to the first O’Reilly Radar column. We plan to use this column to cover topics related to the themes that have our attention these days: AI/ML; Next Economy and Future of the Firm; Next Architecture; and tech-driven innovation and disruption. We’ll also venture outside of O’Reilly’s core focus on technology practitioners to include how technology fits into the modern economy, and offer the kind of information that can provide guidance and confidence to technology leaders facing this brave new world. The Radar team uses a combination of input from our wide-ranging social ... Read More

Feed: Radar. Author: Mac Slocum. Both quantitatively and qualitatively, the Radar team has uncovered a growing wave of change in software development and architectural trends. Organizations are increasingly choosing the combination of cloud, containers, and orchestration to implement microservices as their directional architecture. The need to support business processes and customer expectations—and to have flexibility, adaptability, and scaling for new projects and for migrating legacy systems—has organizations embracing the interrelated technologies and approaches we call Next Architecture. In this report, we cover background, technology and business drivers, and key components that define the Next Architecture concept. Every company has a ... Read More
