HPE Demystifies Deep Learning For Faster Intelligence

Today’s enterprises need deep learning, but most don’t know how to get started. As rising data volumes and evolving industry trends push the limits of traditional IT, the latest innovations are helping them operate faster and smarter—and high performance computing is just the beginning.

Enterprises are deploying robust server platforms to power HPC applications, leveraging optimal performance, reliability, and flexibility to handle increasingly dense workloads. And with these industry-leading tools, modeling and simulation capabilities are rapidly evolving. Artificial intelligence is transforming how we operate and relate to technology. AI allows machines to think and learn like the human brain, while …

ThousandEyes’ Device Layer helps solve application problems faster

Understanding user experience is becoming critically important to the success of all companies. I’ve interviewed dozens of business leaders on their digital transformation initiatives, and I can sort them into two larger buckets: increasing workforce productivity and improving customer experience. Those may seem somewhat unrelated, other than they used digital technologies, but there is another point of commonality and it’s that applications play a key role.Also on Network World: 7 must-have network tools By 2020, customer experience will be the #1 brand differentiator, topping price, product, or any other metric you can think of. While a web or mobile app experience isn’t the only thing that creates a good or bad experience, it’s often the first touch point for customers — and a bad one could drive them away.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here

Worth Reading: 4 Tips to Fight Propoganda

Disturbingly, both men confirmed the totality of propaganda in our society. And they did that many, many decades ago and well before the internet, social media, cable TV, or data mining. By 2017, many generations have been raised from infancy immersed in corporate, political, and ideological propaganda. Your grandparents were victims of propaganda, your parents were victims of propaganda, and you are, without a doubt, a victim of propaganda. —Devin Foley @Intellectual Takeout

3 Ways to Fail at Logging with Flask

For the benefit of readers who haven’t worked with Flask or don’t know what Flask is, it’s a so-called microframework for writing web-based applications in Python. Basically, the framework takes care of all the obvious tasks that are needed to run a web app. Things like talking HTTP to clients, routing incoming requests to the appropriate handler in the app, and formatting output to send back to the client in response to their request. When you use a framework like this, you as the developer can concentrate a lot more on the application logic and worry a lot less about hooking the app into the web.

As you may have guessed from the title of this post, one of the other tasks that Flask manages is logging within the application. For example, if you want to emit a log message when a user logs in or when they upload a new photo, Flask provides a simple interface to generate those log messages.

Flask has a large community of active users built around it and as a result, there’s tons of best practice information out there on scaling, talking to a database, and even whole tutorials on how to Continue reading

The Linux Migration: Wrap-Up

As many readers are probably already aware, I embarked on a journey earlier this year to make Linux my primary laptop OS (see this update from April of this year). That journey ended (for now) when I ordered a new 13” MacBook Pro just before VMworld US. In this post, I’d like to reflect a bit on my journey, and what it means for others who may be interested in similar journeys of their own.

So why the switch back to macOS? Well, it certainly does not have anything to do with changes on the macOS side; all my concerns (first expressed here in late November of 2012, almost five years ago) are still present. By all indications, the trend to “iOS-ify” macOS continues; this may be great for the masses but isn’t so great for “power users” such as myself, in my humble opinion.

In the end, the decision to switch back to macOS really comes down to productivity. I think that my July 2017 update post probably sums it up best: for me, trying to use Linux as my primary laptop OS was like “death from a thousand cuts.” While I strongly prefer to use Linux as Continue reading

IDG Contributor Network: Is Wi-Fi throughput testing useless?

Throughput testing has long been regarded as the best way to find great Wi-Fi products, validate WLAN design and troubleshoot user Wi-Fi issues.  It's not. Wi-Fi throughput testing generates a single data point under a specific scenario in a highly dynamic environment. That's it. In today's enterprise network environment, we need a lot more than that.+RELATED: What is MU-MIMO and can it boost Wi-Fi capacity?+It’s tempting, for example, to use Wi-Fi throughput tests to evaluate vendor equipment by determining the maximum TCP data rate (or speed) that, say, an access point can achieve with one or more client devices concurrently connected. But these tests don’t really reflect reality because you won’t see how that equipment really measures up until you have the network fully loaded and deployed.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
