The Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the most hyped topics in today’s technology coverage. But what really is IoT? The term IoT summarizes all connected “entities”. The Internet of Things is made up of the smallest machines up to the largest computers. All of them have in common that they use networking technology… Read more IoT and Edge Computing Services

Artificial Intelligence and Cloud Computing in Defence Systems

by on August 1, 2018 9:50 am
“An unmanned systems future, really for almost every facet of our life, is inevitable.  It is not going away, so we need to deal with it head-on” says Brigadier General Frank Kelley, and I concur. Kelley, the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Navy’s unmanned systems put forward his idea that the unmanned drones are on… Read more Artificial Intelligence and Cloud Computing in Defence Systems

Artificial Intelligence, Cloud, Mobile Devices and Networks

by on July 19, 2018 11:16 pm
A key takeaway from Jeff Welser’s (Vice President and Lab Director, IBM Research) presentation is that we are creating data at twice the speed than bandwidth in our networks. Large parts of Big Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) products and services today have been built using the resources of cloud computing. According to  Craig Martell… Read more Artificial Intelligence, Cloud, Mobile Devices and Networks

Military Drone latencies

The near future in the aviation industry looks to be one hundred percent autonomous. There are already current military systems that are able to control and navigate autonomous systems from nearby bases and unmanned aerial vehicles that possess the power to access remote areas to conduct search operations, deliver potential packages, supply raw materials, scan earth… Read more Military Drone latencies

Evolution of Compute and Big data

by on July 15, 2018 12:57 pm
The primitive cloud, better known as “virtualization” evolved as a way to abstract the physical infrastructure which used to be manually deployed. The evolution of cloud computing from plain server virtualization is depicted in the flow below developed by Gartner in 2012 [1]. The first big step in compute evolution was from physical servers to… Read more Evolution of Compute and Big data

Cloud Computing

One issue that comes into mind for cloud computing is the future development of cloud computing and where innovation and advancements in technology will take it. The fact that it was none of the companies that “owned” the network that pioneered in cloud computing is remarkable. The network operators (e.g. AT&T, Comcast, Verizon in the… Read more Cloud Computing

The Future of Cloud Computing

In April 1964, IBM introduced the first Main Frame Computer called System 360. [1] Those computers, even though not to be compared to todays computers in terms of size and performance marked the beginning of the era of computing in which we are today. Another important Date was the 20 December 1990. That day, the… Read more The Future of Cloud Computing

Cloud Computing and Edge Computing

Cloud computing is providing many benefits to its customers including faster deployment, lower maintenance cost and the ability to scale as needed. Additionally, AI/ML aspects of Cloud Computing are playing a prominent role in its adoption across different sectors. During last week’s guest lecture, Montse Medina from PayPal(formerly Jetlore) explained how their cloud-based AI platform… Read more Cloud Computing and Edge Computing

Chance of Cloud and Fog: The future of computation

by on July 13, 2018 12:01 am
One of the biggest technology trends of the recent years has been the emergence of cloud computing. Cloud computing makes use of other computers to have access to the necessary memory and computation power. Similar to Uber, instead of owning all the necessary memory and computation power, you have access to the resources as needed.… Read more Chance of Cloud and Fog: The future of computation

Supporting Edge Computing and IoT with Modular Data Centers

by on July 27, 2017 7:37 pm
  Living on the Edge The increase in sophisticated Internet of Things (IoT) devices is pushing cloud computing to the edge, literally.  Currently all of the major cloud providers such a Amazon (AWS), Microsoft (Azure), and Google Cloud Platform operate in huge hyperscale data centers.  These facilities are hundreds of thousands of square feet, and … Read more Supporting Edge Computing and IoT with Modular Data Centers
