If you operate a financial services organization, you want your individual branches to perform at their best. Historically, banks and credit unions have used a variety of methods to determine performance targets for each branch location. Each of these goal-setting methods has its advantages, but none provide a complete picture of opportunity. Today, with access to richer data and pre-linked business and location insights from solutions like Precisely Data Link for Dun & Bradstreet, financial institutions can go beyond traditional approaches to uncover hidden market potential and make more confident, data-driven decisions. By using industry-leading datasets and analytical techniques, you…

Google’s €5.5 billion plan to expand its presence in Germany is about more than new buildings and servers. Running from 2026 to 2029, the investment shows how global cloud and AI providers are starting to link technology growth with sustainability, workforce skills, and energy efficiency — priorities now central to how European enterprises plan and operate.A new data centre in Dietzenbach and an enlarged site in Hanau will strengthen Germany’s position within Google’s 42-region cloud network. These centres will support AI tools like Vertex AI and Gemini, which already help companies such as Mercedes-Benz and Koenig & Bauer scale their…

Let’s be honest: automation isn’t optional anymore. If you’re a network engineer wondering how AI and automation will change your job, here’s the reality. Engineers who automate will outpace those who don’t. See what’s possible with Cisco at AutoCon 4 AutoCon 4, November 17–21, 2025, in Austin, TX, is where the community compares notes on what actually works—code, playbooks, telemetry, and the people/process shifts that make it all stick. Come see what’s possible at the Cisco booth, or start free today at Cisco U. and turn a boring repetitive task into your first automated win. “My main takeaway from AutoCon…

I’m thrilled to announce SwiftMCP, a Swift macro-based framework that elegantly exposes your Swift functions as powerful Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools for AI assistants. After months of careful refinement, SwiftMCP now delivers the experience I’ve always dreamed of: turning standard Swift documentation directly into AI-integrable tools—effortlessly. Behind the Scenes For a long time, I watched with envy as developers in languages like Python effortlessly created tools for AI agents by merely adding decorators to their functions, along with documentation enclosed in triple quotes. Something similar felt painfully out of reach for Swift developers—until I realized the incredible potential of…

The goal for a truly automated enterprise is a general-purpose AI that can be deployed across its entire robotic fleet, much like a single operating system can run on different computers.A wheeled robot navigating a warehouse floor, a quadruped patrolling a campus perimeter, and a drone inspecting inventory operate on entirely different software stacks. Each new piece of hardware demands its own specialised algorithms for navigation, perception, and task execution. This balkanised approach leads to high development overhead, complex integration, and inefficient model training, ballooning the total cost of ownership and hampering scalability.Galbot, in collaboration with university research teams, has…

How much pain are you in on a scale from one to 10? This simple method is still the way pain is measured in doctors’ offices, clinics, and hospitals—but how do I know if my five out of 10 is the same as yours? A new, early-stage platform aims to more objectively measure and share our individual perception of pain. It measures brain activity in two people in order to understand how their experiences compare and recreate one person’s pain for the other. The platform was developed as a partnership between the large Tokyo-based telecommunications company NTT Docomo and startup…

The IT Service Management (ITSM) and System Integration and Management (SIAM) services market is entering a phase of strategic maturity, evolving from transactional service management to a more integrated, value-driven discipline. As enterprises seek to strengthen operational governance and align IT outcomes with business priorities, ITSM is taking center stage as the core engine of enterprise reliability and performance. It enables enterprises to streamline processes, mitigate risks, and enhance agility through automation and AI-led efficiency. In parallel, SIAM is becoming indispensable in complex, multi-supplier environments, offering the governance structures, transparency, and unified control required to manage service ecosystems effectively and…
