Have you come across the term IoT app development? Of course, you have! Given the widespread popularity of IoT devices and applications, it’s no surprise. However, while many of us understand the basics of IoT, its potential extends far beyond what meets the eye. There’s so much more to explore when it comes to IoT application development and its devices.

Since 5G networks began rolling out commercially in 2019, telecom carriers have faced a wide range of new challenges: managing high-velocity workloads, reducing infrastructure costs, and adopting AI and automation. Because data management is a key variable for overcoming these challenges, carriers are turning to hybrid cloud solutions, which provide the flexibility and scalability needed to adapt to the evolving landscape 5G enables.

AI has come as a game-changer in plenty of industries, with OpenAI’s GPT series setting the pace in natural language processing and decision-making abilities. The latest edition, GPT-4, promises even more powerful features, like enhanced accuracy, enlarged context window, and improved performance for grape tasks. However, before the adoption of this avant-garde technology, it is necessary to understand how much GPT-4 costs.

Keboola, in cooperation with Capgemini and Snowflake, is releasing “AI Data Management For Dummies," a book written to be an easy introduction to the world of discriminative and generative AI.

In 2024, organizations realized the revolutionizing business potential of gen AI. They accelerated their gen AI operationalization processes: explored new use cases to implement, researched LLMs and AI pipelines and contemplated underlying ethical issues. And with the seeds of the AI revolution now planted, the market is maturing accordingly.

Observability refers to understanding a system’s internal state by examining its external outputs, like logs, metrics, and traces. Borrowed from control theory, it’s the ability to infer what’s happening inside a system without direct access. To visualize observability, consider the human body. We don’t need to open it up to understand its internal state. By measuring external signals like body temperature, heart rate, or blood pressure, we can infer what’s happening inside.

From humble beginnings, Apache Kafka steadily rose to prominence and now sits as the backbone of data streaming for thousands of organizations worldwide. From its robust API, cloud-native implementations like Confluent Cloud, and synergy with other technologies like Apache Flink, Kafka has grown to cover many use cases across a broad range of industries.

LLMs are the foundation of gen AI applications. To effectively operationalize and de-risk LLMs and ensure they bring business value, organizations need to consider not just the model itself, but the supporting infrastructure, including GPUs and operational frameworks. By optimizing them to your use case, you can ensure you are using an LLM that is the right fit to your needs.
