INDUSTRY 4.0 + IIoT

USA based Altair, a leader in computational intelligence, has released an eBook highlighting 100 AI-powered engineering use cases, which demonstrate how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the product development lifecycle across industries.

Africa’s digital economy is scaling at an unprecedented pace. Teraco and NAPAfrica are building the interconnections that make it possible. From fast and reliable content delivery and access to global cloud on-ramps to co-location facilities, the continent’s largest neutral data centre ecosystem is opening the way for Africa’s next growth phase.

Global provider of critical digital infrastructure, Vertiv, has introduced Vertiv™ SmartRun, a modular prefabricated overhead infrastructure system. It is designed to integrate high-density power distribution busbar, liquid cooling piping network, hot-aisle containment, and network infrastructure into a single, scalable solution, to support accelerated data centre fitout. The all-in-one solution reduces complexity and facilitates faster deployment of cloud and AI training applications for greenfield and retrofit co-location and hyperscale data centres.

In the announcement of the fourth annual Financial Times’ Africa’s Fastest-Growing Companies rankings, South Africa-based integrated cloud platform provider Routed has made the list for the third time.

Earlier this year Altair announced a technical integration between the NVIDIA Omniverse Blueprint for Real Time Digital Twins and the Altair One® cloud innovation gateway. The integration takes advantage of GPU acceleration, NVIDIA NIM microservices, and NVIDIA Omniverse technologies to give customers an unparalleled ability to visualise, build, edit, and interact with complex simulations and digital twins in a shared turnkey environment. More broadly, it helps organisations leverage the full potential of Altair’s simulation, artificial intelligence (AI), data analytics, and high-performance computing (HPC) solutions to drive groundbreaking innovation.
