New Cloud Services are Foundational to Gaining Control Over Content

My next-door neighbor has a two-car garage and a large shed in the backyard. In the twenty-plus years we have lived next door, they have yet to park a single car in their garage. The garage is overflowing with all manner of yard equipment, winter tires, retired exercise equipment, and the odd piece of furniture. The shed is also packed. They own a snowblower, I often lend them ours because they can’t access their own. Unfortunately, many organizations handle file management in a similar fashion. (more)

What’s your corporate responsibility, post-COVID? What we’re doing to improve our local communities with technology

COVID-19 has created a very unexpected disruption to life. As we continue to endure its effects on people and the economy for over half a year, it’s important to look back at how things were handled in the beginning, and the support that corporations gave during these crucial times. Many organizations from around the world donated money and resources during the onset of the crisis, and are still continuing to do so today—but many surely weren’t prepared to do so, leading to delays of life-saving resources.

Beyond the Cost Savings of Application Decommissioning: Improved Efficiency

As organizations embrace newer, better technologies, the older applications have a tendency to pile up in the corner of the data center. This inefficiency is made worse as companies are acquired and transitioned onto the company standard applications. Eventually, they become costly to manage due to support fees for both software and hardware, data center charges, labor costs for application maintenance and backups, and labor costs for application support. However, the data contained within these inactive applications is still very important, so it must be stored somewhere. (more)

Seeking the truth in an information-saturated world

We live in an increasingly information-saturated, plugged-in world. Long gone are the days where an entire family gathers around the only television in the house to watch the 6 o’clock news. Between our 24-hour news cycle, constant push notifications on our phones and tablets, and the ever-growing presence of social media, information overload is, like it or not, part of our day-to-day lives. Therefore, the information we need to make important decisions can often be easy to find—or on the other side of the coin, that information might be obscured by misleading data, untrustworthy “news” sites, and sometimes, blatant disinformation campaigns run by organizations and governments with nefarious intent. As business leaders, it is important to be able to cut through the noise and have a good system in place to decide who to listen to and who to tune out. (more)

How Touch-A-Life Foundation is revolutionizing giving platforms using the ABCs of data

The proliferation of big data in recent years has contributed to the rapid acceleration of next-generation, data-driven technologies. Three of these top technologies are AI, Blockchain, and the Cloud—which we can call the “ABCs” of data. Together, these technologies are transforming many industries with a myriad of applications, such as banks using AI and the blockchain to automate transactions with “smart contracts”, and healthcare organizations bringing their complex and fragmented systems to the cloud to enable real-time, centralized access to data. Another unique industry leveraging the ABCs of data is the non-profit sector. (more)
