New Delhi [India], July 21: According to the World Economic Forum, 133 million new jobs will be created in the area of Artificial Intelligence (AI) by 2022. Demand and growth for jobs are forecasted in three key areas, including data analysts and data scientists, AI & machine learning specialists (including AI software engineers), and big data specialists.

Peak the Decision Intelligence Company, with software that embeds AI within an organisation across sales, marketing, planning, and supply chains to transform their decision-making. The company has seen rapid growth over the past 12 months, with new offices due to open in the USA and Pune (India), alongside expanding its Jaipur (India) and UK team. As a result, Peak is creating 150 new jobs globally this year, including roles in data science and AI software engineering.

Alongside data science, AI software engineering is one of the most high-profile jobs in the AI industry today.  So, what are the top five skills that companies look for when hiring AI software engineering talent – whether that’s as a graduate or as a senior hire. Here’s our list:

1. A background in a quantitative field, such as physics, mathematics, or statistics:

Starting with a strong quantitative background is often extremely helpful: a good intuition for mathematics and statistics is invaluable for practitioners working in AI. Those with strong core skills in these areas often find it much easier to stay ahead of innovations and build a career in this fast-paced sector. As Koushik Kulkarni (Head of AI Engineering at Peak) says, “If you try and foster some core skills in mathematics and statistics, with a bit of computer science on the side, it should make it easier for you to start your journey as an AI software engineer.”

2. Hands-on experience with algorithms, data architecture, and database systems:

Building an in-depth practical and theoretical command of algorithms, data structures, design patterns, and product architectural design is a great place to start for any software engineer, and the same is true for AI software engineers, too. Working as an AI software engineer will mean working with several database and data processing technologies, such as RDBMS and NoSQL databases, as well as a range of ‘traditional’ and Machine Learning (ML) – flavoured algorithms, data structures, and design patterns. After all, building ML-based products requires a deep understanding of how to productionise ML using both conventional and ML-specific software practices. Companies will want you to master a number of these skills as you progress throughout your career. Having these core skills in place is critical to building great data and ML products!

3. Knowledge of key programming languages:

To work in AI, companies look for both coding and debugging skills in languages such as R, JavaScript, Python and Go.  Learning more than one language will always prove invaluable, as businesses look for multiple skillsets in an agile industry.

4. Open and driven:

People who have successful careers in AI software engineering are naturally more open to novel ideas and cutting-edge technologies.  It’s vital to stay informed and ahead of the curve when it comes to technological innovation, and if this comes naturally to you, it will put you ahead of the competition. As Koushik says, “the problems we solve at Peak are complex, real-world customer problems, working alongside cutting-edge technology that’s constantly evolving. This continuous change is an amazing learning opportunity, so keeping up to speed on the latest tech makes this role very interesting and exciting.”

5. Creative problem solving:

Employers look for individuals with strong critical thinking and problem-solving skills, from the most inexperienced members of a team to the most senior hires. Those with strong problem-solving skills are invaluable and trusted members of any team – these are the people who create new ideas, better ways of doing things, and make it easier to save time and money for their customers.

Engineers today are bridging the gap between traditional software engineering and the emerging fast-paced world of AI.  Keeping ahead and building a career in this high-profile sector requires a combination of hard technical skills and soft skills – ideally with multiple skill sets across both.  If you have those skills, your future in this high-growth sector is secured for decades to come.

Bengaluru (Karnataka) [India], July 20: Array Networks today announced that it has secured the third position in the application delivery controller (ADC) market as per IDC Ethernet Switch Tracker for Q1 2021. Array Networks emerged as one of the leaders with its market share of 17.6 percent.

As per IDC’s Q1 report, the revenue of the ADC market witnessed a decline of 26.3% QoQ in revenue. The ADC category has grown by 8% YoY irrespective of the pandemic. With wave 1 reducing in India and lockdown restrictions released, there were excellent investments from the government (state government departments, smart cities, etc.) and the banking sector.

“We are very happy to have constantly maintained top three positions in the Indian ADC Market. The trust of our customers keeps us motivated to make better products. The first quarter saw a huge change in dynamics where the application delivery controller (ADC) took a back seat and focus was mainly placed on the security solutions and products to help organizations with remote and hybrid working conditions as people were returning to work in a controlled capacity.” said Shibu Paul, Vice President – International Sales at Array Networks.

Array’s operation in India has led to overall growth in the company. From Universities, Tech-enabled companies, manufacturing powerhouses, leading banks to the government are their primary customers. The company firmly believes in supporting the Indian Government’s “Make in India” initiative.

They continue to maintain a strong presence in the Indian market with improved performance by effectively distributing traffic among multiple servers, optimizing resources by productively allocating traffic based on application types, and guaranteeing application and data-access coherence.

[Taiwan], July 14: Infortrend Technology, the industry-leading enterprise storage provider, recently launched all-flash models in its EonStor CS scale-out NAS family. With the all-flash platform, CS significantly increases processing speed for massive unstructured data, aiming to enable performance-demanding applications, such as 4K broadcasting or real-time streaming in the M&E industry and HPC (high-performance computing).

EonStor CS is a scale-out NAS that can support up to 144 nodes in a cluster with a total of over 100 Gbps Read/Write speed and 100PB capacity. With the launch of CS 4025B, an all-flash model, CS is now able to support 3.4/2 GB/s read/write speed per single node. In addition, the CS supports a 40GB/s RDMA node-to-node connection, satisfying customer requirements for ultra-high-speed data processing.

Moreover, CS now allows a more flexible architecture with a hybrid configuration of all-flash and all-HDD pools. Users can allocate performance-demanding workloads in the all-flash pool while keeping cold data or capacity-hungry applications in the all-HDD pool. A flexible deployment ensures maximum system efficiency and smarter data management.

HPC and M&E industries benefit the most from this hybrid configuration since these two industries usually involve massive data volume and high-speed data processing. For example, in HPC applications, users can allocate parallel computing and analysis to the all-flash pool, and then back up or archive massive data in the all-HDD pool. In the M&E industry, 4K video broadcasting, post-production, and live streaming normally require very high performance and, thus, suitable for the use of an all-flash pool. Apart from this, users can store huge volumes of video files in the all-HDD pool.

“Pursuing higher performance and flexibility is our unchanged goal. We’ve received many positive market feedbacks for our EonStor CS scale-out NAS. With the release of the all-flash model, we believe we can even better satisfy our customers in the booming industries like HPC and M&E,” said Mr. Thomas Kao, Senior Director of Product Planning.

New Delhi [India], July 14: It is often said that execution is the most critical phase of any project without which vision and strategy remain redundant.  In his book The 12-Hour Week, Brian Moran explains, “The market only rewards those ideas that get implemented.  Execution is the single greatest market differentiator. Great companies and successful individuals execute better than their competition.”

Studies have shown that a large percentage of companies fail to successfully execute their business strategies in spite of offering excellent products and/or services.  The reasons for failure could range from a lack of second-rung leadership, poor access to markets, or an inability to scale operations, hiring, or even IT.

The Nagpur-based healthcare firm is the first Indian company to produce PEEK-based implants for facial reconstruction

Nagpur (Maharashtra) [India], July 13: As a brutal second wave of Covid-19 swept the country in April and May, an accompanying spike in Mucormycosis in Covid-19 patients cases further aggravated the woes of patients and the healthcare infrastructure.

As of June end, the country had reported more than 40,000 cases of Mucormycosis, commonly known as Black Fungus. According to statistics, more than three-fourth of these patients had Covid-19 infection, and more than half of the patients had diabetes.

In a significant majority, the regions most affected by Mucormycosis included the upper jaw and orbital region below the eye. To prevent the further spread of the infection, removal of the infected facial tissues was the line of treatment adopted by surgeons. While this procedure saved hundreds of lives, it also resulted in facial deformities, a huge stigma in our society.

Even as researchers and healthcare companies worldwide are working to find a solution to this, a firm in Nagpur has come up with an innovative solution to ensure the facial deformity does not leave a deep scar on the patients’ dignity and self-confidence. The solution is also cost-effective compared with other surgical options available to patients.

Nagpur-based LUCID Implants has become the first Indian company to produce Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) based customised implants keeping patient’s unique facial anatomy in mind with advanced 3D printing technologies and virtual surgical planning.

“At LUCID, our vision is to constantly innovate through intensive research in the field of biomedical engineering and develop world-class medical products. These facial implants grant the infected patients an opportunity to reconstruct the facial deformities caused as an aftereffect of Mucormycosis surgery,” said Dr. Pranav Sapkal, Founder and Director of LUCID Implants.

Surgery is performed on patients three or four months after the infection, where custom-made implants are used for facial reconstruction. The implants are medically bio-compatible, i.e., completely verified and safe to be used as a replacement of bone tissue due to their similarity in mechanical properties.

The recent advances in 3D printing technology and word-class process optimization allow LUCID to provide these innovative implant solutions at affordable prices, added Dr. Pranav Sapkal.

“Black Fungus has emerged as a lethal threat in India due to poor health infrastructure and improper patient management. Facial anatomy involves complex shapes, and reconstruction cannot be practically achieved by autogenous grafts. Patient-specific implants also help reduce the surgery time, which is required in the case of patients suffering from Covid-19. This innovation by LUCID Implants serves as a ray of hope for thousands of patients,” opined leading oral and maxillofacial surgeons Dr. Sharadindu Kotrashetti of KLE VK Institute of Dental Sciences, Belgaum, and Dr. Nitin Bhola of DMIMS Wardha.

LUCID Implants has a strong track record in innovation.

In 2019, LUCID received technology support and business acceleration from Dassault Systèmes after winning the prestigious “Excellence in Medical Technology Initiative” award at a conference in Paris. It received a grant of Rs. 10 lakh from the India Innovation Growth Programme (IIGP 2.0). It has also received other grants from private institutions for its advancements in the field of craniomaxillofacial implant manufacturing.

¹Some of the listed capacity on a Flash storage device is used for formatting and other functions and thus is not available for data storage. As such, the actual available capacity for data storage is less than what is listed on the products. For more information, go to Kingston’s Flash Guide at kingston.com/flashguide.

²Workload based on FIO, Random 4KB QD=1 workload, measured as the time taken for 99.9 percentile of commands to finish the round-trip from host to drive and to host.

³Measurement taken once the workload has reached a steady-state but including all background activities required for normal operation and data reliability.

⁴Based on 1920GB capacity.

⁵Drives Writes Per Day (DWPD) derived from the JEDEC Enterprise Workload (JESD219A).

⁶Limited warranty based on 5 years or when the usage of an NVMe SSD as indicated by Kingston’s implementation of the health attribute “Percentage Used” reaches or exceeds a normalized value of one hundred (100) as indicated by the Kingston SSD Manager (kingston.com/SSDManager). For NVMe SSDs, a new unused product will show a Percentage Used value of 0, whereas a product that reaches its warranty limit will show a Percentage Used value greater than or equal to one hundred (100).
