Cloud-Native Platforms

Cloud-native platforms are the next step in the evolution of cloud computing. They enable businesses to move away from traditional monolithic applications and develop applications that are composed of microservices.   This approach allows companies to take advantage of the scalability and flexibility of the cloud while also maintaining control over their data and architecture. Cloud-native platforms also provide a more efficient way to manage resources, as businesses can scale up or down as needed. Cloud-native platforms are a critical aspect of cloud-native architecture. They allow for the rapid, flexible development and deployment of applications that can quickly scale in response to changing business needs.

System integration – (Hyperautomation)

The biggest challenge isn’t just implementing new technologies but integrating them into the existing environment that avoids disruption. That’s where system integration and hyperautomation comes in. Hyperautomation is a set of technology tools and techniques that help you manage the steps in your process more efficiently. It’s not just about automating some tasks while leaving others intact. It’s about integrating digital tools into your business to work the way you expect them to. It’s about making processes more efficient and delivering a better user experience. Hyperautomation eliminates the friction between your digital tools and your business processes so that everything works as you expect it to.

Some of the things we can use to integrate your systems include:

Centralised Communication and collaboration tools

When it comes to growing a business, communication and collaboration are essential. A centralised communication and collaboration tool can help you scale your business by improving communication between team members and departments. Such a tool can help improve productivity by providing a single platform for exchanging ideas, files, and messages. Additionally, a centralised communication and collaboration tool can help improve team morale by providing a space for employees to socialise and work together.

Tools you can use:

Best of Bread software

The faster you can accomplish a task, the more productive you and your team can be. That’s why businesses turn to software specifically designed to do a job – to help them grow their businesses.

Businesses of all sizes turn to software to help them scale their operations. The software can help businesses manage growth and complexity by automating processes and tasks. Specialised software applications are designed to do a specific job, making them ideal for businesses that need to automate specific processes. From accounting and inventory management to customer relations and marketing, a software application is available to help businesses of all types and problems.

Enterprise resource process software

ERP software is a comprehensive solution that can cover all aspects of your business. This makes it ideal for companies looking to grow and expand their operations. This makes it easier for companies to keep track of everything going on. Having one system that can handle all aspects of your business can be nice, but ERP systems may not do everything well. It is good to focus on what it does not do and consider a “best of the bread” or have some custom-built middleware. You also need to consider how much you need to change your processes to suit the system.

ERP and Customer software

Custom Software

When it comes to growing your business, you need all the help you can get. ERP systems are great for managing core business processes, but they can be inflexible and difficult to customise. Best of bread software is often better suited to a specific task but may not have the same breadth of features as an ERP system. Custom software can combine the best of both worlds, providing the flexibility of best of bread software with the features and functionality of an ERP system. This makes it an excellent solution for businesses that need to manage complex business processes.

Decision Intelligence

Machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) are buzzwords you’ll likely hear more of in the coming years. Both have the potential to help your business grow, but what’s the difference between them? AI is broader, encompassing all technologies that allow machines to make intelligent decisions. In short, machine learning is a subset of AI that enables computers to learn from data without being explicitly programmed.

Despite the differences, the two are often used interchangeably. That’s because, for businesses, the distinction isn’t always necessary. What matters is that both ML and AI can help you make better decisions by analysing data more effectively. For example, machine learning can improve customer segmentation and target marketing efforts more accurately. AI and ML can also help companies develop more effective business models, automate tasks, and reduce the risk of fraud. Both technologies are becoming increasingly important as you look to drive growth in your organisation.

Internet of things

Internet of Things

The internet of things is a network of physical objects or “things” embedded with electronics, software, sensors, and network connectivity. This allows objects to collect and exchange data to improve the rate and accuracy of data collection instead of relying on people to manually collect it. For example, if you are a farmer, you can put sensors in your fields to monitor soil moisture, temperature, and crop health. This information can be collected and analysed to help you decide when to water your crops, harvest and what type of crops to plant next season. The internet of things helps you remotely communicate with controllers, so now the farmer can make adjustments without travelling.

Tools you can use:

Robotics 

As robotics technology grows more sophisticated and affordable, businesses are finding new ways to employ it to automate tasks and increase productivity. Robotics can be used for functions such as In many cases, using robotics can help a business grow while keeping costs low.

Conclusion

Digital transformation is necessary for businesses to remain competitive in today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape. By embracing new technologies, companies can scale their businesses more efficiently and improve their bottom line. However, it is essential to note that a successful digital transformation requires a clear strategy and the right team to execute it.
