8 Most Efficient Project Management Methodologies For Businesses

Terralogic — Fri, 09 Jul 2021 06:50:53 +0000

In this fiercely competitive market today, without an effective project management strategy, it will be difficult for businesses to grow if not to face countless barriers and errors in their long-term business management process.
Regardless of the industry in which your business operates, the right application of project management models can significantly improve your bottom line. In this article, we will take a look at 8 popular project management methodologies to help optimize project management capacity, creating a superior competitive advantage for businesses.

1.Agile Model

Agile is a project management model that prioritizes flexibility, breaking down project progress into cycles called sprints to focus on continuous improvement to develop, complete a product or service. Accordingly, at the end of each cycle, the finished product will be sent to the customer for evaluation. Based on feedback helps the staff to make timely changes & in line with market needs.

Agile is often applied in information technology projects when the time factor is a top priority. Agile enhances the interaction between project members and with customers, contributing to shortening response time to sudden changes to the product. In addition, Agile is also applied in businesses with a constantly changing business environment operating in non-IT fields such as Marketing, Recruitment, Event Organization, etc.

Kanban plan

*Designed by stories

As a project management model developed by Toyota Corporation and used by most leading businesses, the Kanban plan allows businesses to break down projects into individual tasks. At the same time, visualize those tasks to help project members grasp and quickly update the developments on each specific task.

Kanban newsletters typically have three main sections: assigned, in-progress, and completed tasks. However, the arrangement and display order can be customized thanks to the flexible “drag & drop” operation. Kanban can be applied to many aspects of the business from project management, to recruitment management, to dispatch management, etc.

The Scrum Framework

*Designed by stories

Scrum is a variant of the Agile model, widely used in the field of software development. However, Scrum has a few more distinctive features such as the ability to decentralize the person responsible for the project (Scrum Master) – responsible for monitoring progress and supporting project members to solve problems that arise. ; function to set short-term goals to encourage users to accelerate project progress, etc.

Waterfall

The waterfall is a sequential project management model in which each phase of the project (such as feasibility study, planning, design, construction, testing, production, and maintenance) must be completed before moving on to the next stage. This is a model commonly applied in the construction and manufacturing industries because projects in these two industries have a fixed, structured approach and little change throughout the implementation process.

This management model helps to minimize the risks that arise because each stage of Waterfall requires a certain amount of work to be completed and rechecked. As a result, employees will have more opportunities to find, correct errors/problems, and fix them on the spot, before moving on to the next stage. In addition, Waterfall prioritizes documenting each phase of the project, making it easy for project members to update and communicate progress to customers and stakeholders. Customers can quickly access project documents whenever they need more detailed information (like information on cost, size, time, etc.).

However, the lack of flexibility is the biggest drawback of this model. Once the project phase is complete, it is difficult and expensive to go back and make changes as needed. For example, when a software development team designs a product, they find that a feature is missing, with Waterfall they are forced to go back, start from scratch to add this feature.

Critical Path Method (CPM)

CPM is a project management model based on an estimation algorithm to determine the measurement time, the reserved time to find the most optimal implementation plan? In it, before each project, the manager will have to plan and list the activities related to the project, the relationship of each activity, and the estimated time to complete each activity.

CPM helps members have a better overview of the project, thereby finding the best solution, reducing processes and procedures to complete the project with high results and in the shortest time. However, this model is only suitable for large-scale, stable projects with little change during the implementation period.

Six Sigma

As a relatively new project management model, the purpose of Six Sigma is to manage quality, improve project processes, and anticipate and eliminate problems even before they arise. Instead of just finding short-term or temporary solutions to the problem, 6 Sigma helps project members to deeply analyze and control the key factors that can affect the overall progress.

The Six Sigma model includes five main steps:

Define the problem, customer opinion, and project objective specifically.
Measure important project aspects and collect relevant data.
Analyze data to investigate and ensure every element of the project is under control.
Improve (improve or optimize) to eliminate errors, and perfect the process to increase management efficiency
Control project status to ensure any deviations are corrected for the most complete product, including statistical process control, product classification tables, production process modeling, and continuously monitor the implementation process.
For the 6 Sigma model to maximize management efficiency, the project requires a specific and clear orientation from the early stages. Therefore, this model is not suitable for use in projects that are constantly changing.

Rapid Applications Development (RAD)

*Designed by stories

Similar to the Agile and Scrum models, the RAD model is mainly applied in software/application development projects where change is an inevitable and frequent factor. This model consists of 4 main phases, which rotate continuously until the project ends.

Stage 1: Prepare preparation plan – collect necessary information (customer requirements, improvements, bug fixes…) to deploy the project.

Stage 2: Convert design/idea from the customer into the product structure

Stage 3: Continuous construction – production of finished products based on sample structure and customer requirements yêu

Phase 4: Product testing and acceptance

Gantt chart

Gantt chart is one of the most popular tools used in project management to show all activities in project management including large tasks and subtasks, time, and order of execution. Unlike other models, Gantt charts use a visual approach to give managers an immediate overview of the project, related tasks, people in charge, and time each task must be completed.

Some outstanding benefits that Gantt charts bring to businesses include improved management efficiency and resource allocation for projects; enhance transparency and clarity in information exchange between project members.

In general, the above projects can be classified into two main groups: traditional & modern. Accordingly, businesses operating in the fields of IT, software development, marketing, etc., must regularly handle projects with a flexible nature, constantly changing product requirements, time and budget. The implementation policy should prioritize the application of modern management models such as Agile, Scrum, and RAD.

Conclusion

In contrast, traditional models will be suitable for projects in areas such as construction, vehicle design & assembly projects, etc., which require careful calculation with clear goals. Traditional models such as Waterfall, Six Sigma, CPM will help shorten deployment time and minimize risks. However, these models can significantly affect creativity and innovation when all project activities and processes are located in a fixed environment. Particularly, Gantt and Kanban chart models can be applied in tandem with any of the above models, allowing significantly improved workflow efficiency, enhanced collaboration, and engagement of project members’ judgment.

How to Become a Good Java Programmer

Terralogic — Fri, 09 Jul 2021 06:47:03 +0000

Today, software is the king of the digital age. With a wide presence anywhere, programmers have transformed all industries, from the entertainment industry, music, movies to fixed industries such as shipping, retail … And the saying “software dominates the world” has become the catchphrase of many people.

To become a programmer, start learning from the basics of what programming languages you love, or the most popular languages today.

Java is a very well-known and popular technology in the IT field and it is not surprising that we see many large applications in the enterprise especially in the financial related field or the large transaction system they choose Java as. The main platform for application development. For large systems that need high stability and good load capacity to meet business requirements, Java is one of the most demanding candidates.

Here are 10 suggestions for the skills needed to thrive in Java programming, from knowing the basics to mastering in practical applications, all of which will help you seize opportunities for promoting your career, let’s hop in:

Learn about JVM (Java Virtual Machine)

Java is one of the most popular programming languages in the world with a long history of development. Therefore, having an overall knowledge of the Java ecosystem is how you can best read and understand relevant technical documents. You should learn the constituent components of the JVM virtual machine, how it works, how JIT, JVM Option, Garbage Collections, and Collector work to understand how a Java application works. Once you understand the JVM, you will have enough background knowledge to build powerful and more efficient Java apps.

Besides, you should also know which Java app re-audit as well as which objects are taking up the most resources, what is the bottleneck in the performance, or for example which objects are taking up the most memory or eating the most CPU.

Design Patterns (GOF Patterns)

*Designed by stories

If you are starting to write Java apps then you most likely have to code object-oriented, practice with design patterns, and experiment with solutions to common problems. So the more you know and incorporate the design pattern into your code, the more flexible and changeable the app will be in the future. The overall code quality, as well as documentation, will also be improved a lot if other Java developers. If they are familiar with the design pattern, they will understand the solution very quickly.

Don’t just focus on the code, though, get more general and creative, using Java 8 features like lambdas and Streams to rewrite patterns like Strategy patterns.

Java API and Library

If you want to learn examples, how to write good code, you should dig deep into the libraries available in Java. In the core of Java, there are many good ways to write code. You can learn many things from these libraries. There are more than 20 types of libraries and APIs that are used frequently in Java. Knowing this way of writing will improve your coding skills a lot.

Learn Java ( JDK 8 to JDK 14)

*Designed by stories

Recently, Java version 14 was born, but very few Java developers used up this new functionality. Java always updates and releases new versions every six months, so updating yourself is very important and quite challenging. Many Java programmers with 7 to 10 years of experience have never been able to write a single line of Java feature code (like lambdas or Stream API). I understand that acquiring knowledge at some point in my career will become very slow but if you don’t update, you will be left behind.

Spring Framework (Spring Boot)

Learning Spring framework seems to be a must nowadays for Java developers because most companies develop on Spring frameworks such as Spring MVC, Spring Boot, and Spring Clouder for web app development, REST APIs Microservices. It also provides best practices such as dependency injection, which makes the app easier to test – one of the most important things in modern applications.

If you are a newbie Java developer, I recommend you start with the Spring tutorial to learn the basics of this framework, then go to Spring Boot and Spring Cloud to develop more advanced apps.

Cloud and Microservice

Year after year, the architecture of a system gradually changes. About 10 years ago, applications were built on monolithic architecture. The monolithic architecture includes Controller, Service, Repository together. Dependency between modules is very high. That is why the scalability is very limited. And today people are moving monolithic applications to microservice architecture (independent of modules). Therefore, the dependency of modules is very low, so it is easy to replace, improve and scale.

Learn the Design Pattern and Best Practice of Coding

*Designed by stories

Most of the frameworks we use the Design Pattern. It makes the frameworks highly flexible, highly scalable, without having to break code over and over again. Understanding the Design Pattern will help us to write code optimally and effectively. Scalability, upgrade for the system later.

Currently, there are more than 25 versions of Design Pattern for object creation, the structure of objects, and the behavior of objects. Each Pattern has its purpose to help you upgrade later in functionality without having to break all the old code and rewrite the new one.

Refactoring

There will be times when I read other people’s code and want to fix it to make it easier to read, maintain and upgrade. Then Refactoring is the technique that helps me do that. Refactoring includes techniques for separating complex, confusing functions, variables, and classes into smaller, easier-to-understand lines of code while ensuring the function runs properly. Currently, there are more than 20 techniques to help me rewrite and edit existing code to make it compact and easy to understand.

DevOps

*Designed by stories

For a modern Java programmer, in addition to writing code, I must also equip myself with knowledge of DevOps. I must know the techniques and tools to do the build automation and product deployment automation. The technologies that Java programmers need to equip are Docker, K8s, Ansible, Jenkins.

Testing

*Designed by stories

Testing is an essential skill for any Java developer, especially unit testing, integration testing, and automation testing. At a minimum, Java developers should be familiar with JUnit and Mockito, two of the most popular Unit testing and Mock libraries. If you know these two libraries and know how to use them to effectively create a unit test, you would be a much better Java developer than not knowing them. So don’t miss out when planning your Java learning path.

There are many advanced libraries such as Cucumber for Business-driven testing, Robot Framework for integration testing, but there is no substitute library for Junit. You will always need Junit, remember.

When it comes to the mocking library, you have several options like PowerMock, Mockito, and EasyMock. However, you should choose to study Mockito as it is an extensive library, and many developers and Java companies are doing the same. It is slowly becoming the standard library for creating mock objects in Java.

Conclusion

If anyone discovered a pill to take or instantly acquired programming skills in any programming language, he would be the richest man on the planet. Therefore, you should also understand that general knowledge and knowledge of programming is limitless. If you have chosen to be a programmer, regular updates are essential if you do not want to wake up in the morning. alien world. Even if you have a job, never stop learning. Things change rapidly in the programming world.

On the other hand, while you are still learning how to code, try to accept some reality. Don’t dig into every topic, as the background can be overwhelming, and sometimes not necessary, to accomplish your Java learning goals.

8 Emerging Technologies to Watch in 2021

Terralogic — Wed, 21 Apr 2021 13:20:25 +0000

The year 2020 is almost about to end, in a very different way than it started. This pandemic has made businesses transform digitally more than ever before. The number of businesses that have moved online in the past six months alone is more than those in the last decade.

There’s a lot at stake for 2021. The question is whether mainstream technologies such as data analytics and AI will remain a force. Or will we see newer forms of technology dominating the year? Even if time is the sole judge and determinant, here are possible technology trends we believe will dominate 2021

VR enhancing touch

To develop this technology, a prototype device has been produced and perfected by researchers at Northwestern University (USA). The product stands out with its ability to emit tactile signals using a material with microscopic vibrating particles attached to the skin.

The device, called epidermal VR, can be used to send the intimate touch of a child in kindergarten to distant parents or to give the feeling of touch to objects with limbs.

With the game industry, it can generate corresponding warnings on body parts when the character the player controls is attacked at different locations.

The development team created a device of 32 vibrating points mounted on a 15cm x 15cm silicone polymer sheet that sticks to the skin without needing tape, straps or batteries or wires.

The device uses NFC technology to transmit data. This is a short range wireless connection technology that is widely used in mobile payments on smartphones today.

The researchers hope to develop the aforementioned epidermal VR device into clothing, thereby allowing those who have to use prosthetic hands and feet to wear the device to expose it to a more real sensation.

2.Internet for everyone

Nowadays, it is difficult to live and work without an Internet connection. Even so, it is known that about half of the world’s population do not have the Internet for objective reasons.

This situation has caused some of the tech giants to embark on the implementation of great projects for humanity. Google is slowly spreading the Internet ‘super huge’ flight to remote areas, while Facebook had plans to use drones to provide Internet networks to remote areas.

Most recently, we have SpaceX and Amazon with a project to provide the Internet for humanity using artificial satellites. While Elon Musk has ambitions to launch about 42,000 satellites, Jeff Bezos plans to put about 3,236 small satellites in low-Earth orbit.

In the Netherlands, they have succeeded in launching two satellites into Earth orbit to provide Internet connectivity for Antarctica.

Computer vision

“Vision” here refers to systems that can identify objects, places or people from visual images – those collected by cameras or sensors. This is technology that allows a smartphone camera to recognize which part of an image it takes is a face and supports technologies such as Google Image Search.

In 2020, production lines will use computer vision cameras to track defective products or equipment failures, and security cameras will be able to warn of anything out of the ordinary, without supervision 24/7.

However, as computer vision use cases increase in 2020, there will also be a lot of debate about how to limit the use of this technology, as they greatly affect privacy.

Self-driven cars

At first, no one thought that automation technology (mostly by robots) would develop as rapidly as it is today. However, in unexpected situations such as a pandemic, when people are limited to meeting each other, people will find this direction the right direction.

The potential of this technology is enormous. In the future, robots will replace humans working in harsh and hazardous environments (such as a chemical-rich environment, with epidemics). It’s convenient, isn’t it?

In addition, we can also apply this field to areas such as unmanned vehicles. Instead of driving yourself or relying on the driver to take you to the desired place, this technology will automatically locate and control the car to bring the user to the preset location. I think this will be a strongly developed field in the future.

From AR to VR XR

It can be explained as follows, VR (short for Virtual Reality: Virtual Reality) is applied when you put a glasses-type device on your eyes and experience realistic images

While AR (short for Augmented Reality: Augmented Reality) is by nature images in reality visible to the naked eye. However these images are enhanced or augmented with virtual information. It makes the images right in front of your eyes become richer.

VR can be considered as a completely virtual world created by computers, and AR is the real world enhanced with images or additional virtual information.

Equally attractive technology is the XR (Augmented Reality Technology) that is set to explode in the next few years. In essence, we can see XR as a composite of AR and VR technologies, along with a few other factors.

When the technology is complete, you can interact with environments that fuse reality and illusion just like a fantasy movie. Of course that will be the story of the future, but now researchers are still perfecting this potential technology trend.

Hyper Automation

In other words, this is the process of using complex technology to replace human intervention. In order to do this, super applications must use technologies including artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) to enhance the automated processing, instead of humans to perform tasks such as discovery, analysis, design, automation, measurement, monitoring, reassessment, etc.

From the emergence of super apps, digital twins – use digitally that reflect the actual object, process, or system conceived in an organization.

A normal application cannot replace human decisions, so the super application is integrated with many tools, including Automatic Processing by Robot (RPA), Smart Enterprise Management Software. (iBPMS) and AI. The goal is to strengthen decisions made by artificial intelligence.

In addition, the super application allows enterprises to visualize functions, digital replication processes, and performance indicators with high accuracy. Accordingly, digital production becomes an indispensable part with the super automatic process, continuously providing information data, time about the organization, promoting potential business opportunities.

Dispersion cloud

This solution refers to the delivery of the public cloud service to locations outside of the cloud provider’s data center, but still within their control. In distributed clouds, the provider is responsible for all aspects of the cloud architecture, operations, management, and updating. The evolution from a centralized public cloud to a distributed public cloud opens up a new era of cloud computing.

The distributed cloud allows data centers to be placed anywhere. This solves all technical issues like latency and legal challenges like data sovereignty. This solution also provides the benefits of a public cloud in addition to the benefits of a local private cloud.

8.Empowered Edge

Empowered Edge is a topology where information processing and collection and delivery of content is placed closer to information sources, with the idea that keeping traffic locally will decrease latency. This trend also covers all technologies on the Connect of Things (IoT) platforms. Edge computing looks at how these devices grow and form intelligent spaces, and bring critical applications and services closer to the people and devices that use them.

By 2023, the number of smart devices on the edge of the network could be 20 times more than in a normal ICT role.

Conclusion

The above technologies are not only for building the future, but they are present and are an effective aid to businesses to cope with market demands and challenges in preserving a state-of-the-art system.

7 Coding Trends to Watch in 2021

Terralogic — Wed, 21 Apr 2021 13:17:29 +0000

For more than a decade, software development has become a significant aspect of business, and we all know today developers have become an asset to businesses, key tools to help businesses innovate, evolve, and grow. In coding, everything depends on the coder skill-set, right from problem-solving skills to an informed decision-making capability. As a result, software and mobile development have become imperative to business growth and their eventual success.

We are already into the last quarter of 2020 and it’s clear as day that whoever has the arsenal of cutting-edge software technology, will come out on top in this year’s corporate battle.

As we move towards the end of this year, experts are predicting new trends in coding for business to keep up with the industry demands for the coming year. Here are the 2021 coding trends that are predicted to dominate the development industry in 2021:

1.Native App Development Will Remain Unparalleled
In 2020, Native app development has created programming that fits to run on specific devices, unlike hybrid apps. And as you can understand, the most targeted device for native app development were smartphones. Since iOS and Android have captured the world application market and are going to be there for some time now, investing in these is going to be significant.

Even with the advent of cross-platform tools like React Native and Flutter offering faster development, focus of investment towards native app development continues, thanks to the enhanced user experience and powerful performance of applications.

2.Angular 2+| React | NodeJS will be Starring in the 2020 Showdown
The top three frameworks being NodeJS, Angular 2+, and React dominant in 2020, we have understood that for 2021 nothing is going to change. Here’s what we think about the three powerhouse frameworks of software development:
Angular 2+ is a fully featured framework that allows simple routing and helps you build compelling user interfaces.
ReactJS is a library where you have to write less code and the implementation of virtual DOM allows for enhanced performance. Today, ReactJS is the common choice of JavaScript Framework Developers.
NodeJS is fast and lightweight. It is the go-to framework for fast and scalable networking applications.

3.Big Data Computation — Apache Spark at the Heart of Data Analysis
Previously, Hadoop Map-Reduce was the framework utilized for the computation of large-scale datasets. Today, Apache Spark has taken over the Distributed Batch Job and has bested Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) in performance and costs.

Apache Spark has specifically targeted the limitations of Hadoop Map-Reduce. It processes everything in memory instead of storing data after each operation. Spark is predicted to rule over the batch processing framework in 2021 and even afterward.

4.Rust Programming Language to Top the Charts in 2021
Rust has started to gain a lot of traction in the industry and even though it still has a long way to go, more and more companies are looking into adopting Rust in 2021. One of the reasons behind this is that Rust is more than just a set of libraries or a compiler.
Rust aims to make programming easier, safer, and more fun. This approach has proven critical in the journey of Rust from a hobby language to one of the main programming languages in the industry.

5.Kotlin | Scala | Java is a good trio
Java programming will continue to dominate the market in 2021. Java’s runtime, Java Virtual Machine offers an excellent foundation for JAVA, and many popularly used programming languages like Kotlin and Scala use JVM as their runtime.

However, Oracle has changed the license for JVM and a one-time license for Java SE 8 or later is no longer available. That means all the companies using Java, Kotlin and Scala (JVM languages) now have to pay large subscription fees.

6.On Cloud Premises continue to boom
Cloud providers will continue to be in demand, with the need to serve more and more in the coming year 2021. It seems like every business from a small startup to conservative companies like health care, government organizations, banks, insurances and intelligence agencies are turning to cloud vendors. This trend will only grow in 2021 as more companies of all sizes move to Cloud. So if you’re still hesitant about Cloud, maybe it’s time to leave your inhibitions and move to Cloud.

7.Watch Out for Distributed SQL
SQL has bagged the top spots for popular databases in 2021 mainly because SQL offers durable ACID transactional guarantees. Since this transactional system is essential for business applications, we can be rest assured that SQL databases will flourish in 2021. Web-scale companies, however, are looking for a database that offers the ACID guarantee of an SQL database but the horizontal scaling of a NoSQL database.
2021 is looking at a Distributed SQL Database that will finally fulfill the requirements of web-scale companies.

Conclusion
Coding trends change each year and this will continue to happen in the years to come. The software industry is one of the most competitive industries today, largely because technology can no longer be kept separate from business. Hence more and more programming languages will rise to the forefront of software development and older ones will fall behind business.
These are our predictions for the programming language experts at Terralogic that will dominate the coding trends in the year 2021.

Artificial Intelligence(AI) driven Legal System

Terralogic — Thu, 03 Dec 2020 10:45:07 +0000

Every time we come across state-of-the-art technologies, there are a lot of questions in our mind as to how that technology will solve daily operational setbacks, or will it even give any innovative way out or not.

Ai today is consuming almost all the industries, making the daily workflow better and results more accurate. The legal system/profession is no exception. With the demand for smarter, quicker and more transparent results, AI is beginning to transform our age-old legal profession workflow processes in so many ways. Ai marrying the Legal system, caters mostly towards augmenting what citizens do, giving them the freedom to take on higher errands; such as advising, negotiating and appearing.

Progressive Web Apps and the changing face of the mobile web

Terralogic — Tue, 01 Dec 2020 12:30:28 +0000

The Internet has come full circle. The evolution of the digital age began with the simple display of information through a single primitive web-page, which progressed into more sophisticated websites and applications for a wide variety of devices. This further transitioned in the last decade in the form of a huge surge in native apps developed for not just the mobile and hand-held tablets but also a slew of tactile movement driven wearables. Progressive Web Apps mark the return of web-based applications in circulation and for good reason too- get the best of both worlds, ie Web and Native app development.

Impact of 5G on the eCommerce industry

Terralogic — Tue, 01 Dec 2020 12:28:03 +0000

E-commerce is possibly the most powerful realm of augmented and virtual reality applications, given that retailers are spending over $ 1 billion a year on the technology.

Today’s consumers are not difficult to go online to shop or use products and services they know. There’s also a lot to say about the rapid rise of mobile commerce. Over time, consumers have become more and more willing to shop on mobile devices, and this trend is driving merchants to provide a powerful, engaging mobile shopping experience.

Not stopping there, mobile devices also play an important role in the journey of shopping at traditional stores. Consumers use the device to research and compare products before buying them in a store.

Framework & Phases of Project Management in the IT Industry

Terralogic — Tue, 24 Nov 2020 08:15:54 +0000

Have you noticed? Framework is on every project management job description. Everyone wants you to know how to develop software applications, but not without a framework.

So what is a framework?
Framework is the process of getting through the initiation, requirements collection, design, implementation, testing and deployment stages of a project to produce an application or service.

So, why do you need to understand Framework?

Understanding of Framework makes the process of project management efficient. But there’s a real problem here, with so many different project management approaches, the framework is confusing.

We will give you more clarity on this topic that you will find in every project phase to build a framework for managing the project.
Let’s get started!

How to choose the right BPO provider for your business

Terralogic — Tue, 24 Nov 2020 08:13:11 +0000

One thing all business people need to learn is – you can’t do it all! Firms run at high efficiency, trying to achieve multiple goals at the same time, putting their resources under a lot of pressure and ultimately, reducing productivity. For a business to thrive, it is critical that a smooth and manageable, maintainable workflow completes all essential tasks. So the question is how can you make better use of your time and resources?

The solution is a BPO service. This means delegating the executable work to another company that is able to perform better than yours. One of the biggest advantages of a BPO is that you will be able to streamline a number of different business processes at the same time. In the past, you may have to conduct extensive in-house training to help your employees better understand the new duties. But with BPO outsourcing, you’ll be able to work with a team of qualified professionals who are already proficient with all the tasks that need to be performed. This way, you can eliminate large volumes of time-consuming work from your internal staff.

5 Reasons why digital products fail?

Terralogic — Tue, 24 Nov 2020 08:10:08 +0000

According to Harvard Business School there are over 30,000 new products introduced every year (physical and digital), and 95% fail. That’s a disturbing thought for every organization, especially the Startups who run thin on capital. This statistic is an enormous deterrent for all those who aspire to create their dream product one day. That brings us to the main question, why do products fail? And by product failure, we don’t just mean a dull financial return, poor user adaptability and feedback are equally important parameters.

Reason #1: Fixing a Problem that doesn’t exist
The origin of every solution comes from a problem. A Product in today’s competitive market is considered irrelevant if it doesn’t solve a problem that users are troubled with. Such a product eventually disappears from the marketplace and from the user’s mind. To avoid this frequent issue and to thus increase your chances of building a triumphant product, we advocate a strong shot of self-doubt.

7 IoT Trends For 2020

Terralogic — Tue, 24 Nov 2020 08:07:01 +0000

IoT is now an unfamiliar word in all industries. In 2020, perhaps people will not refer to IoT as a hotspot, but we will still see a change compared to the past. Through this article, let’s learn about the 2020 trends of IoT!

The IoT ecosystem allows organizations to connect, control, and use IoT devices.
