QonfX 2024 Rewind: Testing, AI, and the Future

We did a sort of time travel on 20th April at QonfX. If you are not one of the 3000+ people who registered for this event, it is a unique software testing conference that keeps its focus on the Future of Testing. This year was the second edition of QonfX and received even more love than the last time. Feedback like the above filled our social feeds during and post QonfX. We cannot keep a count of the number of times attendees used the words ‘eye-opening’ for the talks given by the speakers.

How ClearML Helps Teams Get More out of Slurm

It is a fairly recent trend for companies to amass GPU firepower to build their own AI computing infrastructure and support the growing number of compute requests. Many recent AI tools now enable data scientists to work on data, run experiments, and train models seamlessly with the ability to submit their jobs and monitor their progress. However, for many organizations with mature supercomputing capabilities, Slurm has been the scheduling tool of choice for managing computing clusters.

ClearML Supports Seamless Orchestration and Infrastructure Management for Kubernetes, Slurm, PBS, and Bare Metal

Our early roadmap in 2024 has been largely focused on improving orchestration and compute infrastructure management capabilities. Last month we released a Resource Allocation Policy Management Control Center with a new, streamlined UI to help teams visualize their compute infrastructure and understand which users have access to what resources.

How Healthcare and Life Sciences Organizations Are Accelerating Data, Apps and AI Strategy in the Data Cloud

Accelerate Healthcare and Life Sciences is a one-day virtual event, featuring technology and business leaders from Elevance Health, Ginkgo Bioworks, Datavant and more, to discover executive priorities, best practices and potential data and AI challenges that are top of mind for 2024.

Observability Meets AI: Unlocking New Frontiers in Data Collection, Analysis, and Predictions

As software systems become increasingly complex, observability — the ability to understand a system's internal state based on its external outputs — has become a critical practice for developers and operations teams. Traditional observability approaches struggle to keep up with the scale and complexity of modern applications. As the amount of telemetry data grows, it becomes expensive and complex to navigate. Enter AI and its promise to revolutionize observability.

Data Prep for AI: Get Your Oracle House in Order

Despite the transformative potential of AI, a large number of finance teams are hesitating, waiting for this emerging technology to mature before investing. According to a recent Gartner report, a staggering 61% of finance organizations haven’t yet adopted AI. Finance has always been considered risk averse, so it is perhaps unsurprising to see that AI adoption in finance significantly lags other departments.
