Reliable connectivity never been easier

ICT is a term that has existed for some years, but not everyone knows exactly what that means. While some of us know what Information Communication Technology means, there is still some mystery about the term that eludes understanding. The reason for this is that there is no fully agreed definition of exactly what ICTs are. This is because everything has to do with ICT – its concepts, methods, and applications – is constantly changing, which means that it is impossible to establish an adequate definition before the definition would have to be modified to take into account the development of the term. This is not particularly useful when it comes to understanding what this term means, but fortunately, there are some explanations for ICT that will never change. ICT refers to any product that deals with electronic information . This can be hardware or software, so both personal computers and emails fall under the same name because of they both deal with electronic information, albeit in

Digital transformation in industry

Industry Challenges Facing Operators Today As has been the norm, scale and speed of operations are what makes sense for carriers and their customers. With digital transformations of businesses, the demand for technological services provided by carriers is growing though not uniformly for companies and industry sectors. Uncertainty is always present, but it is also accompanied by opportunity as clients tend to lack the questions to ask technology partners. Connectivity technology is the foundation for customer experience and steady business performance and understanding in depth the business of a client can help a client provide better solutions. With the increased control falling on the carrier’s side, ingrained issues like customer experience and the need for streamlined operations helps lower costs and enable the growth of innovation through organizations. Research from the Economist Intelligence Unit indicates that more than half of businesses are feeling frustrated with their cur

Could DevOps exist without cloud models?

The GigaOm DevOps market landscape report is nearing completion, distilling conversations and briefings into a mere 8,500 word narrative. Yes, it’s big, but it could have been bigger, for the simple reason that DevOps touches, and is therefore helped and hindered by, every aspect of IT and indeed, the broader business. Security and governance, service level delivery, customer experience, API and data management, deployment and orchestration, legacy migration and integration, they all impact DevOps success, or cause what we have termed DevOps Friction. While the report is about DevOps, and not all these other things (the line had to be drawn somewhere), one aspect rings out like a bell. I go back to an early conversation I had with ex-analyst Michael Coté, who brings a hard-earned, yet homespun wisdom to technology conversations. I paraphrase but Coté’s point, pretty much, was, “The kids of today, they don’t know any other way of building things than using cloud-based architectures.”
