  • With the global market for digital mobility services forecast to grow to $2Trn by 2025, Frost and Sullivan suggests there is much continued private sector interest in digital mobility services and, as result of this trend, the firm says there is a readiness to combine different modes of transport to the extent that the “lines…

  • Clive Longbottom, Client Services Director at analyst firm Quocirca commented on Facebook: “I’m assuming that should this NHS attack be shown to be down to cost-cutting measures and corner-cutting by the many private companies involved, they will be held responsible for the financial costs involved, and that their management will be held responsible for manslaughter…

  • With big data comes one particular challenge that can put the spanner in the works: data and network latency, which can slow down your networks and render your big data analysis inaccurate and useless.To be a true data leader therefore requires the ability to recognise when you need data acceleration tools that use machine learning…

  • To ensure that latency doesn’t affect her ability to receive, transmit and analyse real-time data, she might need to also consider using a data acceleration tool – one that can also permit her to back up and retrieve her data fast. That’s important because even in manufacturing disasters can strike without warning. So it important…

  • Skills shortages: David Trossell, CEO and CTO of data acceleration company Bridgeworks, says he’s not surprised by the situation: “It’s not just occurring in the cyber-security world; it’s happening across all sectors in IT at the moment.” He adds that cyber-security is a one against many scenario. “It only takes one hacker to attack thousands…

  • The truth…is that wide area networks will always be the foundation stone of both edge and cloud computing. Secondly, Bittman clearly hasn’t come across data acceleration tools such as PORTrockIT and WANrockIT. While physics is certainly a limiting and challenging factor that will always be at play in networks of all kinds – including WANs,…

  • Simon French, Panmure Gordon’s chief economist, describes the repeal of Dodd Frank as beggar-thy-neighbour economics because the relaxing of Dodd Frank would only benefit the US at the expense of other countries. He argues that it means that British and European banks have to face the prospect that their marginal costs will increase if they…

  • “While customers are often pushed to buy into the latest and greatest technology, what they really need is choice. Sometimes it just doesn’t solve the issue they wish to resolve, or meet their needs,” [David Trossell, CEO and CTO of Bridgeworks] says. That said, edge computing may be too expensive for some organisations right now,…

  • To support video companies using video for broadcasting, advertising, video-conferencing, marketing, or for other purposes, need to avoid settling for traditional WAN optimization. Instead they should employ more innovative solutions that are driven by machine intelligence – such as PORTrockIT, which accelerates data while reducing data packet loss and it mitigates the effects of latency.

  • IoT gives birth to IIoT, which involves monitoring the performance of complex machinery such as gas turbines, aircraft, ships, electrical grids and oil rigs. So it’s not just about a diversely spread group of CAD engineers working collaboratively across the globe. “IIoT has never been so diverse and in depth with vast amounts of data…
