Enterprise Applications - A major shift in happening

I have been tracking the paradigm shifts (long since my college days) as the technology evolves. Seen the days of single machine / single user / silo applications to the current trend of complex, distributed, multi-cloud, auto scaling systems. If that is not enough the disruption of machine to machine communication in the form of Internet of Things taking this to a next level.

This did not happen overnight. It is a sequential evolution of technology over multiple grow-stabilize cycles over the last 50 years with each new technology triggering a new cycle.

Now the rapid adoption of cloud, big data coupled with newer technologies triggering the new cycle which is going to reshape the fundamental of enterprise application development and consumption models.

In this new shift that we are witness now...
  • OOP is no longer would be the preferred programming style
  • Next generation application architecture pattern to address auto-scaling, fail safe mechanism
  • Next generation app platforms with built in capabilities to decouple technical architecture complexity
  • Dev and Ops are no longer silos
  • No yearly, half-yearly, quarterly delivery cycles but multiple time in a day though continuous delivery
  • Applications deployed in virtual containers or capsules
  • Enterprise application are delivered through a consumer centric App Store model (not a mobile app store but an enterprise app store)
What else? We need to wait and see

Just Buzz... Where is AI?

Speaking to Recode’s Kara Swisher and MSNBC’s Ari Melber, Pichai said AI is “one of the most important things that humanity is working on. It’s more profound than, I don’t know, electricity or fire,” adding that people learned to harness fire for the benefits of humanity, but also needed to overcome its downsides, too. Pichai also said that AI could be used to help solve climate change issues, or to cure cancer. We are seeing some exciting things in the industry, Samsung’s massive 8K TVs apparently use AI to upscale lower resolution images for the big screen. Sony has created a new version of the Aibo robot dog, which this time promises more artificial intelligence. Travelmate’s robot suitcase will use AI to drive around and follow its owner wherever they go.  Kohler has invented Numi, a toilet that has Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant built in etc., But despite all this, it does leave me wondering: is artificial intelligence really what we should be calling this revolution?...

Building Hanlon Micro-Kernel (MK)

I am posting a quick cookbook on creating hanlon microkernel for easy reference. Detailed information on how the microkernel organized and build along with details on each of the command listed here can be found on git hanlon microkernel wiki   1. Install dependencies sudo apt-get install squashfs-tools -y sudo apt-get install -y fakeroot sudo apt-get install p7zip-full -y sudo apt-get install curl -y   2. Install Ruby (I prefer using rvm) \curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby source /home/user/.rvm/scripts/rvm   3. Clone hanlon micro-kernel project into your working directory (my directory ~/wspace/hanlon/hanlon-mk) cd mkdir wspace mkdir hanlon git clone hanlon-mk cd hanlon-mk   4. Clone hanlon micro-kernel project into your working directory (my directory ~/wspace/hanlon/hanlon-mk) cd mkdir wspace mkdir hanlon git clone hanlon-mk   5. Create bundle file: This would create a temporary tar file containing all necessary ...

AI - Intelligence is getting Hybrid

Cooperative learning among networks will lead to hybrid intelligence Neural networks will evolve from monolithic to distributed co-operative/competitive models. Coupled with evolving neural-fuzzy and generic fuzzy algorithms — reinforced learning models that are more adaptive to the environment and context (i.e., too noisy and time-varying systems) — these neural networks will evolve into hybrid intelligent systems that integrate different learning and adaptation techniques to overcome individual limitations
