The Potential of AI for a Brighter Future

How bright would the ‘light’ be after a starry night of AI?

The present calendar year has witnessed artificial intelligence as it has made the world its playground – from learning platforms to retails, from business solutions to corporate investments, there is nothing in the industry that hasn’t found itself out of the broad spectrum of AI trend. Obeying the laws, as something goes up it is sure to come down, AI is maturing with time to see off this phase of abundant hidden scope.

As the world has seen technologies being rejected, then gradually adapted and reaching their fates to saturation, AI does look like a photon following the same beam of light. Slowly the industry has been realising that the next phase of AI is all about smarter, solid adaptive technologies and not the fancy glimpse of shallow bucket from the ocean of AI. Now the focus has drastically shifted towards establishing and strengthening real businesses that can help you plan for generations.

The tech drivers like Facebook, Google, and Amazon are galloping their way on the road to better AI as swiftly as a streak—displacing smaller competition by releasing new products or open sourcing more AI tools. In a world that is on an infinite iteration of the greedy algorithm, technology just isn’t enough for the young start-ups to compete and survive with these fat traders of technology.

The on point market analysis by eGlobal chalks out the prerequisites and ingredients for a successfully flourishing AI-driven business.  There are a few key points to ponder for you as this piece of blog gives away a few generic characteristic that we have found evident in the strongest players of the technology. Our experienced analysts feel they can be of great help for you to create the much sough value for your customers.

IMPORTANCE OF YOUR ‘OWN’ DATA

It has to be realised with utmost consciousness that integrating AI functionality into the products ‘gave’ (keep the tense in mind) companies an upper hand in the market. But, AI-as-a-Service doesn’t seem to have sufficient legs to you run the enterprises in long term. Slowly the AI algorithms are expected to be meaner, leaner, and universally interoperable which automatically leaves the true value in nothing but the data itself. Young ones in the industry need to question the tech entrepreneur within, “what is the long-term value of their data?” they should have a crystal clear perspective if their data exclusively belongs to them or they are an easy target  for replication by a contemporary. The ability to breed and maintain exclusively owned data has the potential to determine if the company will maintain a meaningful differentiation in long-term.

EXPERTISE IN TARGETED SKILLSETS

More than the depth or the quantum of AI being put in application, what matters is that the team can assess the view of their data which they rightly need. It doesn’t take a data scientist or a computer geek to make an AI system learn to figure out what is right and what is not. You need someone who creativity being a geeky UI/UX designer. Or a market analyst (actuary preferably) for an insurance company. These domain experts give AI teams a leg up in making their products relevant, practical, and indispensable to their target markets. As humanly as ur AI be, the higher you stand on the peak of the markets.

HOW THE DATA RESONATES WITH WORKFLOW?

With the above stated requirements of ‘unique’ data and a targeted skilled team the next stone to b flipped is the boulder of your regular work flow. What handsomely characterises the best AI solutions is an “operational loop that is sensitive to the new floods of data maintaining the regular user engagement. The extensive domain knowledge plays a part while designing AI system that is appropriately trained for pattern recognition oriented interrogation. The humans leave a mark of liveliness by growing and developing. Finding an analogy, you AI should be learning, adapting, and becoming an increasingly more efficient to manage and manipulate user’s workflow. The Amazon’s system of online shopping and the CMS is great subject for a case study over the same.

CUSTOMER VALUE ENHANCEMENT

After seeing how the world has been reacting to AI solutions and companies stepping in to the arena, there seems a definite need to recollect the basics and decide if there is a need for AI for the value addition or simply a status symbol.

To take it further, the AI is a component in the system to add a better customer experience. This level of near total automation calls for a handful of precision so the vitality of domain experts at AI learning to capture data, patterns, and insights underlines itself to the best of highlights.

To all the entrepreneurs out there, it’s a piece of advice from eGlobal to start looking for a solidity in their AI solutions as the strongest AI companies will be able to a big pack of tech companies. We feel that for a span of another 5-8 years, AI will continue to expand from sales to marketing, customer service and everywhere else in the sides and corners of your business.  It is your question of survivable that will make you ensure that it spreads thick for however wide it does.

Indian IT Industry – The Dark Side of the Light

OUR IT INDUSTRY IS A UNIFIED UNIVERSE. FIRST, IT THREW UP JOBS IN NUMBERS AS MANY AS PLANETS AND NOW CREATING DANGEROUS BLACK HOLES CALLED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE WHICH CAN NOT ONLY TAKE OVER THEIR JOBS BUT COMPLETELY OVER POWER HUMANS.

The trend of offshoring has made the Indian IT industry to grow at a blazing speed for last 15 years or so. The industry has been flooded with projects of developing and testing software, data entry and analysis, and after sales customer support for home giants as well as foreign attracted by the cheap labour. The number game revolving around this has been large, with over 50 million people occupied making it an overall annual affair of $ 150 billion.

The industry has been relying upon and is largely comforted by technologies like automation, robotics, big data analytics, machine learning and consulting. The workers in the industry have greatly feared the times when a robot would do their same work in half the time. When data analytics will come up with inference and resolution of challenges faced, much faster and smarter than the cliché analysts watching and delving over the market trends for years. And machine learning will make the machines intelligent enough to be comparable to humans, at least in the targeted domain if not wider.

The Ground Zero Analysis

The masses and the skilled workers in the industry have been anxious about the near future situation when the technology will run them completely out of jobs in no time. But there has been a school of thought which says that ‘workers’ may find a scarcity of jobs, but the ones who are capable enough of ‘adding value’ to the operations of the industry will definitely succeed. Technology will help companies downsize on mass employees, but they will definitely need the ones who can work ahead of that very ‘technology’. If a system running over the meaner technique lets an employer fire 10 people, the same will compel him hire 5 (good ones). There will always be a demand of those who are smart enough to harness, optimize and adapt such techniques on a level higher than before, some percentage more on profits as per the business oriented minds.

What can you do?


Switch Roles
It cannot be denied that the robots did drop the jobs of some bleak skilled workers but at the same time it also created better job openings. People need to stay in tune with time and advancements. There is a certain definite demand of the work force for the operations of these automated robots. It has to be noted that a better skill set of minds who could control them and keep them managed will always be sought and welcomed by the industry.

Breed Creativity
The old school jobs, being served the same since generations lend a feel like we are robots. Lack of creativity and curiosity and the willingness to create something is a result of the human mind thinking out of box. It cannot be restrained. It is perhaps a new beginning to bringing more focus on skills rather than theoretical knowledge and degrees.

Reduce Risks
Automation and robots have given us a sigh of relief within risky situations that keep on arising in the world. As increases the degree of automated processes, so does the essential safety measure for the same. The system should be such that it alerts humans of a fire that may begin with a short circuit or by some inflammable substance.

More Myth. Less Fact
Humans love number, and here also, they have been talking huge figures of job loss due to automation. According to the some genuine analysis, only 8.5% of jobs face a high scope of automation.

Precisely Productive
If we shed light on the business side of it, the companies are expected to earn more and there will be better avenues of development and employment at new positions where humans will have toil a little less hard. This is immense advantages of preventing boredom that can make the work place mundane and lead to job dissatisfaction eventually.

Change Is Constant
Change is an element that has been blessed by the force to be inevitable. It is up to the most intelligent creatures on earth, we the humans to be maintain preparedness. We should pay more importance towards skill development and further enhancement instead of finding a comfort zone around orthodox jobs that might soon be gone. The technology is leaving us with room to indulge in better and value addition activities and now it’s up to us, how we channelize it.

A Word of Golden Advice

Humans are smarter and more intelligent than they themselves are aware of. As the whole article has been centralized around ‘value addition’ by all engineers in the industry, one should definitely focus on how bigger and better can his contribution be at anything and everything he works over. And this can be done by enhancing your abilities and skills in numerous ways like:

Be more resourceful: Try to learn and be capable of what ‘all’ goes in any project. Expand your radar of work.

Entrepreneurial skills: Any job you do, anything you take up, try to have an perspective of your own in the business sense.

Efficiency is the key: Harder workers go fast. Smart workers go far. Be innovative at your own work.

Be a man of ideas: Over 90% projects today are a recycled product of something that failed in past. Our IT industry had been declared dead because of the scarcity of projects in major areas like cloud and mobile computing. Irrespective of the industry crisis, the ideas will always be valued and remain precious. Innovation is what Apple makes Apple, and many more such examples exist.

Device Management at IoT Solutions

The tricky side of the most common phenomenon today

The Indian IT industry been fascinated to analytics and machine learning and they have been demanding the inculcation of the same in their applications. There has been an ‘automated’ notion that these are essential constituents for ‘value addition to their IoT applications and the related data. On their hunt for intriguing and mean IoT applications, the clients tend to have diminished one of the trickiest and a crucial-to-the-core aspect of application development: device management.

Device management is something that is place in the foundation of app development by the developers and industry experts. Ahead of the installation of IoT infrastructure, fool proof solutions for device management are key ingredients for a quality application.

Let the Technology Flow: Firmware-Over-The-Air (FOTA)

You can tame the uncertainties of the future and the rapidly changing technologies with a remote tool for IoT device management that felicitates FOTA capabilities. When it teams up with campaign management abilities at work, it lets you handle security issues like a pro with over the air updates via what is called the mass update management. The dose of firmware has to be given so smartly that it can handle intermittent flow connections without causing a breakdown of the device (also referred as “bricking”).

Be a Step Ahead At Security Diagnosis with Device Management

Once an IoT solution steps into the user devices, it has to be made sure that you gather data in the form of a feedback report to precisely discover a discrepancy in sufficient number of devices to confirm the nature of the glitch found occurring. After an iterative analysis, you must be in a sound position to identify a security lapse and also see through the spider’s web laid down by the hackers.

In an ideal IoT world, your application must have a strong authentication security provision to slice down the lower risk. The digital efficiency shoots the accuracy of diagnostic trends and analysis getting you closer to the resolution of the same. When there is IoT, device management is ought to sneak in, and with it, comes the networks into play. You can promptly react to device network intimations with ease and utmost efficiency.

If your company is unfamiliar with device management and corresponding security issues, an experienced partner for device management is invaluable. Such partners thoroughly assess your IoT projects before recommending the best methods for provisioning and authentication. Their expertise will include consulting on the lifecycle management of IoT devices.

Auto-Intervention for Multiple Configuration Settings

The clients have been defining their requirements centralised around a metadata tag for people grouped logically or based on a certain common characteristics. As we cruise along the technology, changes and updates are likely but they can easily mess up your time management with a long line up of items to be relayed for the users.  Think of a scenario where a hive of devices that suddenly reset to the initial factor system settings with a major data loss. Because possible configurations are innumerable, this is the best fall back option gives you resort for addressing this.

This much talked about component of application maintenance should have bendable still dynamic business-oriented groupings if seen from the point of view of a product profile. The perks of device management includes a total control to trigger mass actions for changeover and mini makeovers (if required) in view of a scheduled time or event. It has a proven potential to boost the quality of operations in and around the application with scripting for runtime process management tools.

We hope that this article acts like a torch shedding light on the dark hidden aspect of device management at IoT solutions. There is a sufficient certainty that by now you have found total faith in device management and that would help us pave way for the trending concept of Device Lifestyle Management. With a swiftly expanding base network of the users the hurdles of data security, control, and management turn vital. IoT remote device lifecycle management plays a key role in portraying an all-round data view of the device infrastructure.

Luring benefits of IoT Device Lifecycle Management:

Multi-node assistance: IoT device management lets you control the complete network like a mesh of nodes.

Communication security of the device: IoT device management provides a logically layered view of the complete infrastructure be it hardware, software or the inner core implementation.

Cut the Cost:This is a light on pocket remedy for the support and maintenance via updates that lets you enhance the overall functioning of the system.

Slimmer Logistics: It allows real time data analysis and interpretation which adds up benefits like energy saving, cost efficiency and increase in device lifecycle.

Protocol Incorporation: This lets you empower the system with connection protocols and interoperability standards like ZigBee, Bluetooth, Z-wave, BLE, etc. for sensor communication.

According to data scientists, data volume of data produced in last2 years is more than the data produced on earth in last 5000 years. Seeing the quantum and the gravity of the same, the industry has witnessed companies coming up with consultancies to protect the data using a three layer security system. And here are some generic methods they follow that you need to know for intelligently hiring them:

End–to–end data encryption:A synchronised data encryption from device and the cloud helps furnish a dedicated data link with no third party inclusion.

Security Checks: These consultancy services often comprise of firmware security checks, application based alert system, authentic connection establishment and verification.

Security Oriented Infrastructure: The services include the development of TPM (Trusted Platform Module) and TEE (Trusted Execution Environment).

End it on a Business Note

As your business grows the volumes of interconnected devices rises exponentially which is considered to be a major challenge (scalability). Our developers and experts have felt and analysed that the over 80% of companies find device management a headache. And in spite of having an efficient solution which has all the potential, there remains an ignored barrier of device management between their solution and a flawlessly reliable one. In such an IOT environment, a sound, self-reliant system is needed to manage all on-field devices. And from here on germinates the need of Device Management in Device/Product Development

Advantages and Disadvantages of Native vs. Hybrid App development

Hybrid-vs-Native-Apps-india

Advantages and Disadvantages of Native vs. Hybrid App Development

For many companies, it is found that a mobile app is an essential for shaping their business. Developing an enterprise mobile application could be a bonus for your business; however, there are various approaches to fulfil the objective, based on the requirement of your company. It is known that basically there are two kinds of mobile apps i.e., native platform apps and hybrid apps. Both of them provide diverse features which could be applied for the benefit of company if executed appropriately.

There might be no perplexity to the benefits and effectiveness an app holds for the development and for the use; however, there is still a question about which kind of app is the greatest comprehensive, profitable and user-friendly. It is possible that there is no single response to the question. The native as well as hybrid apps possess advantages and disadvantages and the corresponding choice must be intentional and based on contextual use. The time assigned for developing the app, budget, selection of your client and the type of users who you are targeting are few of the factors which must guide the decision.

Let’s have a look at the Native and Hybrid app development in detail, along with their advantages and disadvantages: 

Hybrid App Development:

Mobile hybrid apps are extremely identical to different web applications. However, they provide you access to various platform capabilities. In order to understand this, for example, on iPhone, your application possesses access to the user’s GPS, address book, and several other features. Hybrid Application Development is at core, and they are websites packed within a native wrapper. The apps appear and feel similar to a native app; however, eventually exterior of the fundamental frame of the particular application (usually limited to the navigational/controls elements) they are stimulated by a company’s website. In simple terms, any hybrid app is essentially a web app created by use of JavaScript and HTML5, covered inside a native container which processes majority of the details over the page when the user navigates over the application

Let’s have a look at the advantages and disadvantages of the Hybrid app development: 

Advantages of Hybrid App Development:

Saves Time and Money:

First focus on what your business needs to fulfil through the help of launch of a mobile app. You may wish to launch a latest product in facade of potential clients in short order, transforming the buying experience simple for budding customers. In respect to that, a hybrid app development would assist you to boost your revenue-generating targets.

Although down the road you perceive that one of your competitors have presented an application that lets user’s experience speedier and simpler by use of native technology, you could deem your hybrid app as a link towards making an improved user experience in the outlook.

Updates Made Simple:

Many times it becomes irritating when you need to accurately upload a latest version of an application though there are just the slightest modifications done to it. Luckily, hybrid app development permits content to get updated as required, and also improvements could be carried out whenever required without interrupting the user experience. The fact is that although an internet connection is removed from a device, the particular app would sustain to function. Whenever updates are done during the time a device gets disconnected, it is known that they are automatically done whenever a connection is established again.

Write Once, Use Anywhere:

The hybrid apps are basically written using Javascript and HTML5, so developers need to make lesser twists to the coding in order to work on more than one platform, letting it to be known as “write once, use anywhere” type of solution. This suggests that the app will execute on an Android or iPhone phone, laptop or tablet, irrespective of the operating system. It is known that the hybrid apps can accomplish this as they can automatically discover and modify the user interface for every platform, and later they can adjust as per the screen size, browser, and device orientation. The aspect enables users to get as close to a native experience as probable and not getting completely native—which, obviously, needs more time and money to develop.

Disadvantages of Hybrid App Development:

A particular hybrid app might not offer the finest user or native experience as the code base stays consistent for every platform. Hence, it is comparatively less intuitive and also the user experience is not so consistent.

In addition to that, it is possible that every native features might not exist and contemporary features are not available always on a hybrid app.

For a web developer with little or almost no knowledge regarding a native platform, the task of fixing undocumented errors may become quite tough.

As the development of a hybrid app is extremely identical to development of website, there are many developers who commit error of merely copying their web applications into the mobile excluding any type of redesign. But, this can outcome in many issues like delay in page load time, or occurrence of non-optimized components which are not prepared for mobile.

Native App Development:

Native apps are basically developed for a single kind of device, and later they are installed openly over that particular device, generally from any online app marketplace. It is known that the native app development is platform specific which means that you need to select whether you need to develop in Android or iOS (or recompense two teams to carry out both simultaneously). The final result you get is usually an app with an improved user experience at the cost of taking long time to develop with higher overhead costs.

Let’s have a look at the advantages and disadvantages of the Native app development:

Advantages of Native App Development:

Better User Experience:

A native app is found to be very responsive, quick and highly reliable. Generally, the user experience is enhanced within a native app as compared to hybrid or web app development. As a native app is developed by bearing in mind every component of the platform’s ecosystem, the app is more spontaneous and could seek benefit of every feature of the OS as well as connected software. Moreover, they can influence superior functionality of the device like utilizing the device camera, accessing the device’s GPS settings or continuously providing advanced notifications.

Provides highest level of security:

Native apps function to deliver the greatest possible security for a device. Hence, it becomes very hard for hackers to rob crucial data from a device. Moreover, native applications have excellent UI and UX features and it lets the user experience to be outstanding and fascinating. Moreover, native apps could be utilized in an offline mode too.

Developers seek complete advantage:

As native apps are required to be developed with the precise development tools as well as languages for every relevant platform, web developers which are knowledgeable in Android or iOS development are the most suitable for the job. Moreover, developers are capable to seek complete benefit of every sole device features, like accelerometer, camera, GPS, compass, or also the fingerprint sensor of iPhone 6. 

Disadvantages of Native App Development:

The rate and other resource involvements made in a native app are generally very high as compared to that in hybrid apps. Besides, the cost of maintenance is too extremely high because the app developer needs to keep up multiple code bases with purpose to let them compatible with various kinds of platforms and devices.

Users frequently utilize various versions of a particular native app which lets it hard to offer updates and constant support because every version is usually device specific.

It also has restriction in matters of market reach. Developing an app particularly for iOS platform suggests that users of Android operating system could never access it. Provided that Android possesses an 80% market share globally, this would be a concern. This is specifically true if a brand’s audience utilizes a range of devices.

The trade-off is requiring development of various versions of the application to support frequent mobile platforms as well as their versions within a vastly fragmented market. Alternatively, going for native app suggest noteworthy development costs as well as time to market for any software company because native apps are actually not platform independent. For example, an application created for iOS would not function for other platforms like Microsoft’s Windows, Google’s Android, or Blackberry OS. Apart from that, recurrent upgrades within the platforms convey considerable overheads for app developers to analyze and resolve compatibility issues.

Concluding Note:

It is quite evident that the two approaches discussed above have several limitations and relevant benefits. Hence, an individual should not perceive the choice in form of a black-and-white decision. The decision between these two approaches relies on lots of factors like the kind of application being developed, development talent and capital, allocated budget, etc. If the need is for utility, productivity, or enterprise app, then go for hybrid app development. However, if the app to be needed incorporates photos, videos, or gaming, then developing a native app would be better.
