Is Your Infrastructure DevOps-Ready?

The role of IT is to deliver agile, low-cost, and reliable technology services to the business. What challenges this role is equally what offers promising results: server virtualization that simplified management—likewise network virtualization, storage virtualization, converged or hyper-converged infrastructures—and today Docker containers, micro-services, and public cloud offerings, touting continuous integration and deployment, as well as economical elastic compute. The introduction of these technologies has provided IT administrators and infrastructure managers with nearly limitless vendor choices, control levers, and bare metal configurations. But it has also introduced massive complexity.

Machine Learning on Arm Cortex-M Microcontrollers

whitePaper | January 20, 2022

Machine learning (ML) algorithms are moving to the IoT edge due to various considerations such as latency, power consumption, cost, network bandwidth, reliability, privacy and security. Hence, there is an increasing interest in developing neural network (NN) solutions to deploy them on low-power edge devices such as the Arm Cortex-M microcontroller systems. To enable that, we present CMSIS-NN, an open-source library of optimized software kernels that maximize the NN performance on Cortex-M cores with minimal memory footprint overhead. We further present methods for NN architecture exploration, using image classification on CIFAR-10 dataset as an example, to develop models that fit on such constrained devices.

Why Better Mac Security Starts with Cloud Identity

whitePaper | August 17, 2020

For years, employees drove to an office, opened their computer, logged onto a corporate network with their username and password and got on with their workday. But working standard hours in a fixed office location is becoming more and more rare. In fact, a report by Gallup found that 43 percent of American employees work remotely.1 This growing mobile workforce requires the same, secure access to resources as their onsite counterparts — without connecting to the corporate network. And both onsite and remote employees need secure ways to access the expanding number of applications and resources that are hosted in the cloud. To accommodate, enterprise technology and IT practices must adapt.
