Machine learning has become an important component of many applications we use today. And adding machine learning capabilities to applications is becoming increasingly easy. Many ML libraries and online services don’t even require a thorough knowledge of machine learning. However, even easy-to-use machine learning systems come with their own challenges. Among them is the threat of adversarial attacks, which has become one of the important concerns of ML applications.

IT teams are under immense pressure to work faster than ever and deliver better results—at less cost. And they’re struggling to do it all as their organizations take in rapidly soaring volumes of data that must be captured, analyzed and deployed to improve business outcomes.

Remote work poses new demands for hybrid cloud security.

By now, you have probably seen the announcement for IBM MQ 9.2.3. The first thing to mention is that Nastel had support for 9.2.3 right away. Nastel Technologies is an integration infrastructure management (i2M) solutions company, and IBM MQ is at the heart of most enterprises’ integration infrastructure (i2). Nastel works with the IBM teams to ensure we are ready for any new releases and changes. One key enhancement included in 9.2.3 is the streaming queue.

Information Technology (IT) has moved through many clearly defined eras. I don’t feel the need to list them all, but the latest one clearly is the move from discrete computers to virtualized software-configured environments, that we all colloquially call “the cloud”. And with each technological generation, we have improved the methods we use to integrate discrete modules of technology, and increased the level of automation.

If your organization is frustrated with how long it takes to roll out new applications and updates, they are not alone. Speed-to-market is an obsession at many companies today (see call-out box below), so anything that restricts or slows it down is a problem.
