Voice, Video and Collaboration Infrastructure: How they are Transforming Business

As consumers, we are aware of the enabling power of technology in keeping us connected and mobile. Voice and video tools are a routine part of our everyday lives. Traditionally, the consumer marketplace has always been an early adopter of technology; but can voice and video solutions be leveraged to make enterprises more collaborative, allowing employees to connect to the world at the single click of a button?

IMS Automation: Things To Keep In Mind

IT infrastructure forms the bedrock of an enterprise. The demands placed on the IMS (Infrastructure Management and Security) team are many—to maintain the optimal level for service on a daily basis, reduce disruptions to avoid critical system failures and to enhance the user experience, and respond quickly to any new requests and changes that may arise. However, the ability to respond rapidly is often undermined by the sheer volume of routine tasks that must be undertaken to maintain service standards. Moreover, these can divert much of the effort and resources away from transforming the infrastructure to meet new demands. It is here that automation can play a significant role—routine processes and the maintenance of core assets can be automated, freeing the team to focus on application management, user experience, etc.; thus, reducing the burden on infrastructure management.

Driving Revenues Through Personalised Segmented Content

I recently read a statistic from analyst firm Gartner which stated that by 2016 89 per cent of marketers expect to compete primarily on the basis of the customer experience their brand, product and service delivers to the client or the consumer. A truly personalised user experience can make a customer feel highly valued, which is almost impossible to achieve through print or billboard adverts.

Disruptive Technologies: Arriving At A Specification Document… Is The Biggest Challenge

Going with the norm treads a relatively easy path, whereas going against the flow brings its own set of challenges. If all that you do is try to disrupt what exists, the complications are that much more. Babu K.C., general manager and head, hardware practice, and Divya Sasidharan, engineering manager, both from Happiest Minds, talk to Dilin Anand and Priya Ravindran of EFY about dealing with disruptive technologies and the challenges that crop up along the way

Indian startup ecosystem… Older generation entrepreneurs

Soota’s startup story is as unique as it has shaped out to be. Being something of a serial entrepreneur, Soota started Mindtree in 1999 at the age of 58 and is now at it again, this time with a new start up called Happiest Minds, a next-generation IT company. After some three decades already in the IT sector, Soota believes that a late-stage entrepreneur like himself has several advantages. “If you have a good track record, it becomes easier to get funding at good valuations. I had a good plan to scale the company and I have a better network. Mindtree works in a crowded space. There are people out there who are doing similar things. So my biggest apprehension was always why a customer would come to us. But after the first four or five customers, I overcame that as well,” says Soota.
