Kotlin for Java developers
Add the following dependency to the dependencies section of /app/build.gradle.kts: implementation(“com.google.code.gson:gson:2.9.1”) This lets us handle the JSON we’ll get back from the API. Now, if we run the app we’ll see some information about Chewbacca: $ ./gradlew run > Task :app:run Name: Chewbacca Height: 228 Hair color: null Eye color: null BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 2s […]
Read MoreFrom Breakdown To Breakthrough: Leveraging IoT For Predictive Maintenance
Owners, operators, engineers, and project managers working in industrial settings recognize the importance of performing maintenance regularly to reduce the total cost of ownership of their equipment and reduce downtime. Instead of maintaining equipment reactively, it’s best to take a predictive maintenance approach so you can work proactively. This is why many facilities deploy IoT […]
Read MoreHow IoT Can Aid Companies Falling Behind on Emissions Targets
A recent sustainability study commissioned by NTT and conducted by ThoughtLab Group revealed some grim data points for global corporate emissions goals: 68 percent of survey participants self-reported being behind on their net-zero carbon emissions goals but additional analysis revealed the true number may be closer to 95 percent. Why? Emissions reductions follow an S-curve […]
Read MoreJetBrains IDEs ease debugging for Kubernetes apps
JetBrains IDEs, with new 2024.3 edition releases, now provide a logical code structure view alongside the familiar physical code structure view in the Structure tool window. The updated IDEs also streamline debugging for Kubernetes applications and provide cluster-wide Kubernetes log access with streaming and pattern matching. JetBrains announced the 2024.3 releases on November 12. The […]
Read MoreThe 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 […]
Read MoreStrategies to navigate the pitfalls of cloud costs
Here’s a simple solution, although most enterprises don’t understand it: Set clear guidelines and thresholds for scaling operations. This avoids the financial impact of unchecked scaling by continuously reviewing and adjusting policies to align with evolving business needs and budget capabilities. The parameters need to be paired with sound cost governance systems. However, the cloud […]

Read MoreThe Future of Pumps, IoT, and Industry 4.0
The world of industrial processes is undergoing a significant transformation with Industry 4.0, a movement integrating advanced technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML) to build smarter, more efficient systems. At the heart of many industrial applications, pumps are evolving from simple mechanical devices to intelligent systems, leveraging […]
Read MoreWhat is tailgating (piggybacking)?
Tailgating, sometimes referred to as piggybacking, is a type of physical security breach in which an unauthorized person follows an authorized individual to enter secured premises while avoiding detection by an electronic or human access control (or alarm) system. In general, when tailgating attacks succeed, it’s due to a combination of two factors: 1) human […]
