Delivering Scalable Cloud Services Through Serverless Computing

There are many news and blogs about the technology and solutions relating to new Digital services, Cloud Technology, Big Data, IoT.And of course, no one can forget Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning.

These new tech services and solutions, all rely on one another from time to time. So today, let us discuss one other hot topic in the software world of architecture as well; Serverless Computing.

The three major Cloud Computing Service Provider companies namely Google Cloud Platform, Amazon Web Service (AWS) and Microsoft Azure are investing heavily in Serverless Computing. It is a form of Utility Computing. First thing first, unlike what its name suggests serverless computing still requires servers. It is called as such because the server management with capacity planning decisions is entirely hidden from the operator/developer. Furthermore, applications can be written to be purely serverless while using no provisional servers whatsoever.

Serverless is a method model of cloud computing with the cloud provider acting as a server.

Event-driven and distributed patterns work well with this method with some required suitable changes. Serverless architecture basically offers function as a service (FaaS) platforms, which execute application logic but do not store data. So when the client requests an application, it triggers the server resources and microservices-based routines responsible for answering the request in the cloud. Then it is sent to a container where it is executed, constructed and gets sent to the client.

How Does Natural Language Processing (NLP) help Chatbots?

NLP is an interesting tool that helps break down the semantics of natural language such as English, Spanish, German, etc. to individual words. It then deciphers the intent of the input using various combinations of these words and responds appropriately. This piece of technology has been put to use by many organizations across the globe, and you might not even understand when you are interacting with a machine because it seems very human-like, but is very efficient and there is a very minute lag in terms of responses. Quicker responses help keep customers happy with the speedy resolution of issues and hence eventually result in more business and a boost to the top line. Read More:

Google's New Launch : Flutter 1.0 | What is “Stable Cross-Platform”?

Cross-platform (CP) application development is in the limelight lately, and more so as Google announces Flutter 1.0. Many enterprises are now considering CP for developing any new product. Google finally unveiled a stable version of their cross-platform mobile app development – Flutter 1.0, Google’s UI toolkit, on 4th December 2018 at the Live event in London. Cross-Platform SDK Cross-platform development involves the use of a single codebase for creating software applications that can be deployed on multiple platforms. This is particularly put to use when companies wish to sell the same product for more than one software environment such as Windows, Android and iOS. Various advantages of using these SDKs are: Reusable code Convenience Maintainable code Cost-effective Market Reach Flutter 1.0 CP SDKs are particularly important as developing CP apps can be a total mess of non-native code. This is why Google has set out to create a CP SDK which can integrate smo...

Diving through AI waves | Small and Medium-sized Enterprises

We are now living in the world full of developments, prospects and ideas, taking in the knowledge of Machine, Deep and Artificial Learning. So with this, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are also starting to participate and cultivate with the AI.  From the very start, the fear of security and financial issues have been cultivated around the adoption of AI in the businesses primarily related to Small and Medium-scale Businesses (SMBs). But with the evolution in the past decade or so, multiple and more cost-effective alternatives are available now. So, as AI is becoming more accessible, we anticipate that the road will only get smoother for SME’s to make its way to AI. Read More
