If you want to develop viable, successful solutions over the long term and also be able to evaluate and channel the potential of the Internet of Things, IoT needs to be strategically anchored at your organisation. This is where the IoT factory comes in handy. I will explain what that is in my blog post.

Sustainability has taken on a much larger role in the insurance industry. This is due in no small measure to the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) that requires companies that meet certain financial criteria to provide detailed sustainability reports. Active sustainability is a top priority of adesso, particularly when it comes to the insurance sector. We are working on making our services more sustainable and have partnered with the German Sustainability Network (GSN), for example, to provide our customers with even better support in the area of sustainability. I will explore the partnership and what it entails in this blog post.

In this blog post, I will explain the link between municipal waste, critical infrastructures and the role of digitalisation. Municipal waste disposal is classified as critical infrastructure, so many waste disposal firms and waste treatment facility operators are required to make investments to guarantee they are able to deliver the service they supply from 2024. This means that provisions must be made to ensure that waste is always disposed of and recycled or reused – which also includes the generation of energy through waste incineration – even in exceptional situations. This opens up new opportunities for us as an IT service provider to be part of projects and drive digitalisation forward.

As an integrated ALM solution, codeBeamer offers a central platform for collaborative development, management and optimisation of complex technologies and products. However, it does not offer all the functions needed to meet the special requirements of some industries right out of the box. This blog post presents two extensions and why they were developed.

Artificial intelligence is becoming an increasingly important tool, also in software development. AI-supported coding assistants are now so advanced that they can not only perform simple coding tasks, but can also help solve complex programming problems. In this blog post, I will present GitHub Copilot, Amazon CodeWhisperer and a variety of open-source alternatives as prime examples of coding assistants and compare their relevant strengths and weaknesses

Rust, a system programming language designed for performance, reliability and productivity, has created quite a stir in the software development community in recent years. Its growing popularity can in part be attributed to the Rust community’s catchy slogan: ‘Rewrite Everything in Rust’. But what does this mean and why is it something that you might want to look into? This blog post will answer these two questions.

In this blog post, I would like to take you on an exciting journey through the world of traceability in AI projects and give you a look inside the challenges surrounding the black box dilemma. I will also explore the key role that traceability plays in the transparent and ethically responsible development of AI systems.

Is writing unit tests in Jest part of your day-to-day routine? If you are already familiar with Jest, then you are probably adept at using all the basic functions. But when was the last time you really took the time to explore Jest and all the features it has to offer? We might just have one or two features that you were previously unaware of that will make your daily work easier.

In this blog post, I will describe Storybook, a powerful tool used to develop and test UI components. I use Angular to demonstrate how Storybook revolutionises the process of designing and developing UI components, enables you to create a shared UI library and promotes consistency and efficiency across different projects and teams. Creating a shared UI library makes collaboration easier, increases productivity and ensures that the user experience remains consistent across different applications.
