As business has become more digital, data has become the most valuable asset of many organizations. But protecting that data has also become much more complicated as organizations increasingly migrate it to a mix of public and private cloud infrastructures, such as Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, and Google Cloud.
It takes only a glance at the daily headlines to see that cybercriminals are using increasingly sophisticated methods to breach cloud defenses and access sensitive data. The complexity of cloud frameworks makes it extraordinarily difficult to detect nefarious activities. In many cases, attackers lurk in systems for weeks or months before pulling the trigger.
While digital transformation has been in manufacturers’ playbooks for the past few years, the effects of the pandemic, including supply chain disruption and worker shortages, will make it a business necessity in 2022.
According to research by Connecting Software, Fortune 1000 firms spend 40% of their IT budget on their Integration Infrastructure.
Most companies take their integration infrastructure for granted. I'm talking about middleware such as IBM MQ, Kafka, Solace, ActiveMQ, RabbitMQ. These form the basis of most enterprise-level businesses. One of our electronic manufacturing customers was building products worth $40K per minute. A failure in one of the factory floor's automated systems brought manufacturing operations to a complete halt.
Today, I would like to simplify the technical advantage that Nastel Technologies offers its clients. In a nutshell, Nastel is the leader in i2M (Integration Infrastructure Management) by managing a multi-middleware-platform infrastructure (MQ, Tibco, Kafka, Solace, …) from one interface.
2021 saw several ongoing trends in financial technology, or “fintech,” accelerate, as well as completely novel developments burst onto the stage. What will 2022 hold? Here are five predictions from my vantage point: Cybersecurity will be paramount. Modern-day hackers are going to continue to be aggressive in exploiting every avenue and opening in disrupting commerce and operations. The financial industry is on the front lines of cyberattacks with an extraordinary amount of exposure.
Digital transformation has been the big technology story of the 2020s. Businesses that have embraced this ongoing movement have improved their customer journeys, strengthened their security, and even opened up data analysis to multiple facets of their business. Reflecting the widespread interest, companies like IKEA, DHL, and Nike have undergone successful digital transformations. Business leaders need to stay on top of these 7 key digital transformation trends moving into 2022.
For decades, scientists and tech visionaries have envisioned a day when computers become so powerful that they become smarter than the human race. There is no shortage of science fiction stories and movies about robot uprisings. We are very far from that scary scenario, but at the same time artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer sci-fi. Many applications of AI abound today in business, and it is even being used in creative professions.
