A major lesson the private and public sectors can take away from 2022 is that as long as an organization or entity uses technology, it’s at risk for a cyberattack. And the reality is that as the sun sets on 2022, an organization can’t survive without technology. For that reason, cyber threats and cybersecurity are perhaps the most important topics to discuss with the dawn of the New Year—and perhaps every New Year. Trends in AI (artificial intelligence) and ML (machine learning), quantum computing, supply chain…
IDC says by 2024, the top 5 companies in each sector will be those that used technology to innovate.
Is vRAN (virtualized radio access network) the next evolution of cellular networks? Samsung suggests yes, it is, and the company describes vRAN as an important step in advancing 5G by evolving previously hardware-driven functions by making them virtualized or software-based. A software-based network can offer more flexibility. For instance, Samsung says a software-based network has a leg up in terms of providing new features and managing the network. vRAN also moves controller functions closer to the edge. But isn’t 5G the future the industry is working toward? What role will vRAN play in this 5G future? Data from Transparency Market…

When it comes to market growth and unhindered innovation, two factors—interoperability and standardization—are key. The IIoT (industrial Internet of Things) is poised for major growth this decade, and efforts to promote and enable interoperability and standardization within the IIoT umbrella of technologies will only support and enhance this growth. With its release of Sparkplug 3.0, the Eclipse Foundation is taking an important step forward in Sparkplug’s transformation into an official industry standard that will help enable “plug-and-play” IIoT solutions. The IIoT market will reach new heights by the end of this decade. Predictions about exactly how high the market value…
