Succeeding with observability in the cloud
Complexity makes observability a necessary evil The complexity of modern cloud environments amplifies the need for robust observability. Cloud applications today are built upon microservices, RESTful APIs, and containers, often spanning multicloud and hybrid architectures. This interconnectivity and distribution introduce layers of complexity that traditional monitoring paradigms struggle to capture. Observability addresses this by utilizing […]

The Growth of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) & the Role of IoT in Shared Mobility
Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is transforming how people access transportation by shifting the focus from private vehicle ownership to shared, on-demand mobility solutions. The integration of multiple transportation modes—like ride-hailing, car-sharing, bike-sharing, and public transit—into a seamless digital platform drives this paradigm shift. With the rise of urbanization, congestion, and environmental concerns, MaaS is […]
