Feed: The Connector by Workato. Author: Vijay Tella; There’s been a big movement to cloud and the adoption of SaaS in recent years, and in this context, there is a major shift happening from Information Technology (IT) to Business Technology (BT). BT differs from IT in the scale of apps, speed, agility, and being business impact driven. Companies successfully making this shift thrive and become category leaders, and the ones that do not, fade away. We have written about these challenges and the new approach to automation required to enable such a shift via an Enterprise Automation Platform.  We created ... Read More

Feed: Cloudwards. Author: Ben Stockton; Avast is among the best free antivirus software on the market, while Webroot uses different methods to protect your devices, compared to its competitors. To decide which is best, we’re pitting Webroot and Avast against each other in a head-to-head comparison. Although the services cover different markets — with Avast appealing to the masses and Webroot targeting a niche audience — they’re more similar than they are different. That said, some areas, such as protection, are more important than others, pushing one of the services ahead.  This Webroot vs. Avast comparison can’t cover everything, though, ... Read More

Feed: Featured Blog Posts - Data Science Central. Author: William Vorhies. Summary:  Booze Allen just launched a one-stop shop for all manner of pretested DNN models.  They’re even guaranteeing price.  This makes buying just like picking accounting, CRM, or HRIS software.  Equally as important, it’s a genius example of platform strategy to lock in customers and lock out competitors. The common vision of developing and deploying a deep learning model is half-a-dozen (at least) data scientists and engineers slogging away over maybe three to six months before having that MVP to first test in production. Not anymore.  Go down to ... Read More

Feed: Cloudwards. Author: Jacob Roach; Identity theft isn’t a new concept, but it’s prominent now more than ever.

Feed: Feed | Tractica. Author: Clint Wheelock. In a flexible display, the backplane, frontplane, and any encapsulants are all made from flexible materials.  To date, such displays have been used primarily because they are thinner, lighter, and more durable than comparable rigid displays, and to a lesser extent because they are conformable to rigid but non-flat surfaces in devices such as mobile phone handsets, automobile dashboards, and appliance control panels.In 2017, key flexible display components achieved cost and performance parity with their rigid counterparts for the first time, thus removing a key market barrier and opening the door to rapid ...

Feed: Feed | Tractica. Author: Mark Beccue. Between 2008 and 2015, augmented reality (AR) was a technology gimmick looking for a market. Leveraging devices like smartphones, tablets, and, starting in 2012, smart glasses, innovators struggled with technical limitations, hype, and weak use cases. In mid-2015, the market began a time of recalibration. While the announcements about Apple’s ARKit and Google’s Android ARCore are splashy headlines, Tractica does not believe they will have significant impact in enterprise AR market adoption (explaining why is a blog post topic for another time) for some time. The most significant developments since 2015 in that ... Read More

Feed: Feed | Tractica. Author: Jessica Groopman. Since the advent of cars, the automotive industry has always embraced technological advances, but the pace of change has accelerated so rapidly that auto original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) worldwide are struggling to keep up.
