Adds Singapore cloud region, offers 24/7/365 support for customers around the globeFivetran, the leader in automated data integration, today announced the opening of a new office and cloud region in Singapore, continuing the company’s expansion in the Asia-Pacific region.

The Singapore opening follows the launch of its APAC HQ in Sydney in May 2020, and enables Fivetran to provide 24/7/365 customer support across all regions.The new office extends staff across several key departments, including sales, marketing, partnerships and customer support, allowing Fivetran to better serve customers and partners in whatever regions they do business.

With the launch of this new cloud region in Singapore — adding to cloud regions in the United States, Canada, the European Union, the United Kingdom and Australia — Fivetran provides a global, highly available service infrastructure for customers requiring locally delivered data pipelines in accordance with data residency and data sovereignty laws.The new region enables Fivetran to comply with the Singapore Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (PDPA), a law that governs the collection, use and disclosure of personal data by all private organizations.

If a Singapore business is not PDPA-compliant, the Personal Data Protection Commission may impose a financial penalty of up to $1 million, as well as other sanctions.Fivetran is a cloud data integration service that manages data pipelines for enterprises and midsize organizations, automating the delivery of data to leading cloud data stores.

Organizations no longer need to devote valuable engineering resources to building and maintaining data pipelines.

This frees businesses to refocus on revenue-impacting data analysis.“Fivetran has taken a methodical approach to its growth, ensuring that we have the resources and infrastructure in place to support our customers in each region before we enter that market,” said T.J. Chandler, APAC Managing Director at Fivetran.

As much as we love the aforementioned local teller, she can’t oversee deposit and withdrawal requests by the thousands every minute of every day.

Natural language processing (NLP) is a subset of technology that focuses on interpreting the nuances of how human beings communicate.

You don’t want your bank to accidentally process an account request due to a misunderstood verbal cue, so financial institutions have set up rigid guidelines to restrict access, even if it means ignoring technology.But new-age NLP is rewriting the proverbial program.By creating symbiotic technology to interact more intuitively with the human voice, AI can assist both consumers and banks with ease.NEW-AGE NLP STUDIES THE INFLECTION OF WORDS RATHER THAN JUST DICTATING THEM DIRECTLY TO TEXT.

But vocal recognition can distinguish your vocal pattern from everyone else’s as an added measure of security.Financial institutions are finally recognizing the need for voice-activated AI in banking.

Sounds like progress!Deep Data DiveBanking is all about numbers.

In order to be successful, you want more notches in the plus column than the minus column, yet the financial sector, as a whole, has been losing out on valuable data for years.Enter new-age NLP.Data generally falls into one of two categories: structured and unstructured.

Brent Dance from Google talks about the importance of having a keen eye for yielding the right leverage for game developers.In the gaming world, success is often defined in billions of dollars of revenue or tens of millions of downloads.

But if your idea of success is just being popular in a large gaming market, you’re not considering the full nuanced picture.My team and I spend a lot of time thinking about how every game developer — whether they have 50,000 downloads or 50,000,000 — can find ways to succeed in this highly competitive market.

If you don’t have a solid base of players that represent a game’s value (for example, reaching the desired level of in-app purchases), and ideal playing frequency, then you shouldn’t focus on growth until you find a better fit.

Are people discovering your game in new or unexpected ways?

You should be able to clearly and confidently say where you’re looking to invest more resources, and why it would help you grow.

Or they believe success means getting big in the US or China, when they could drive substantial revenue by focusing on expanding to a wider variety of smaller countries.Growing developers who don’t closely consider more focused questions like these risk attempting to scale when they might not be ready.

Pam Knudsen, Director of Compliance Services at Avalara, advises rental property-owners to deploy AI, IoT tools for management of real estate assets  There are certain experiences that simply require businesses to provide a human touch, like a fitting for a new suit or a guided travel tour.

But, that’s not the case for all businesses – or business functions.

Here’s how:ReservationsIn the not-so-distant past, making hotel reservations required a rotary phone, the Yellow Pages and a whole lot of patience.

Automation can also alleviate the stress of managing multiple rentals and streamline the entire rental process.Moreover, automation tells renters more about the guests they’re set to receive, and helps them determine whether special room preparations are necessary.

For example, if you’re expecting a young family, you might need extra time to child-proof the rental.Housekeeping helpAh, the joys of modern technology: dishwashers, Roombas, microwaves, robotic housekeepers – the latter might seem like a stretch, but it’s not as hyperbolic as you think.

SUCH SERVICES CAN ALSO MONITOR YOUR HOUSEKEEPING ROUTINE AND SEND AN ALERT IF YOUR VACANT RENTAL IS DUE FOR A CLEANING.

The purpose of multiple layered security approaches is to make sure that every layer has a defensive component to counter any flaws or gaps in other defenses of security.Mid-sized companies could be targeted more, as they have more valuable assets than smaller businesses but lesser security layers than bigger enterprises.

Human Capital Risks: Generally, these risks occur due to a lack of trained IT security personnel, or because of a lack of cybersecurity education given to the company’s employees.4.

After gaining access, ransomware will lock the business servers/ systems until the ransom is paid.To avoid such risk caused by phishing and ransomware, SMBs need to ensure the team is aware of the dangers and know how to spot a phishing email.

Business owners can focus on core competences by outsourcing IT and cloud security services.

Studies show that most DDoS attacks last between 6-24 hours and can cause an estimated $40,000 per hour, according to data from Imperva, a DDoS prevention firm.By increasing an extra bandwidth, creating a DDoS response plan in the event of an attack or using DDoS mitigation services are one of the few steps that can help to reduce the impact of the attack.5.

In addition to that OS, firewalls and firmware must be hardened and updated with vendor-provided patches timely.6.

As much as we love the aforementioned local teller, she can’t oversee deposit and withdrawal requests by the thousands every minute of every day.

Natural language processing (NLP) is a subset of technology that focuses on interpreting the nuances of how human beings communicate.

You don’t want your bank to accidentally process an account request due to a misunderstood verbal cue, so financial institutions have set up rigid guidelines to restrict access, even if it means ignoring technology.But new-age NLP is rewriting the proverbial program.By creating symbiotic technology to interact more intuitively with the human voice, AI can assist both consumers and banks with ease.NEW-AGE NLP STUDIES THE INFLECTION OF WORDS RATHER THAN JUST DICTATING THEM DIRECTLY TO TEXT.

But vocal recognition can distinguish your vocal pattern from everyone else’s as an added measure of security.Financial institutions are finally recognizing the need for voice-activated AI in banking.

Sounds like progress!Deep Data DiveBanking is all about numbers.

In order to be successful, you want more notches in the plus column than the minus column, yet the financial sector, as a whole, has been losing out on valuable data for years.Enter new-age NLP.Data generally falls into one of two categories: structured and unstructured.

Pam Knudsen, Director of Compliance Services at Avalara, advises rental property-owners to deploy AI, IoT tools for management of real estate assets  There are certain experiences that simply require businesses to provide a human touch, like a fitting for a new suit or a guided travel tour.

But, that’s not the case for all businesses – or business functions.

Here’s how:ReservationsIn the not-so-distant past, making hotel reservations required a rotary phone, the Yellow Pages and a whole lot of patience.

Automation can also alleviate the stress of managing multiple rentals and streamline the entire rental process.Moreover, automation tells renters more about the guests they’re set to receive, and helps them determine whether special room preparations are necessary.

For example, if you’re expecting a young family, you might need extra time to child-proof the rental.Housekeeping helpAh, the joys of modern technology: dishwashers, Roombas, microwaves, robotic housekeepers – the latter might seem like a stretch, but it’s not as hyperbolic as you think.

SUCH SERVICES CAN ALSO MONITOR YOUR HOUSEKEEPING ROUTINE AND SEND AN ALERT IF YOUR VACANT RENTAL IS DUE FOR A CLEANING.
