Enterprises who fail to adopt this technology cannot sustain tomorrow's cloud computing market. Increasing adoption of wireless networking, cost efficiency and scalability will further propel the growth of this market. Eventually, the cloud is becoming one of the significant business sectors for many technology companies including Google, Microsoft, IBM, Amazon, etc. Cloud computing will provide the Digital infrastructure of tomorrow's cities which will serve the skyrocketing population. From smart parking lots to driverless cars, everything will be integrated and managed with cloud computing. Capacity planning, organizational agility, and cost reduction are the main business drivers for cloud technology.
What is Cloud Computing?
Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computer system resources including computing power and databases over the internet. The data are stored in a "virtual space" rather than a local server allowing the user to work from any hosted service. Here the internet becomes the cloud and all the applications & software can be stored, managed, and processed from any internet connected device.
Service Models of Cloud Computing
Cloud computing consists of three types of services delivered remotely to clients via the internet:
-

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), is the self-service model of cloud computing. Here the user can monitor, access and manage remote datacenter infrastructures, such as compute, networking services and storage. This model provides a customized infrastructure based on the requirements and utility of the consumers. The IT resource provided by this service model is not pre-configured which allows a high level of control over the cloud-based environment the user intends to create.

Platform as a Service (PaaS)
PaaS (Platform as a Service) delivery model is pre-configured and deployed with ready to use IT resources. Through this service, developers can work effectively without the administrative burden as it contains the pre-packaged products and tools. The software components are built -in and reduce the number of necessary coding.
-
Software as a Service (SaaS)
Software as a Service (SaaS) has the largest cloud market and a kind of web-delivery model where applications can be run directly from a web browser without any downloads or installations required. This model requires very limited administrative control as all the IT resources are provisioned by the cloud provider.
Key Difference- IaaS, PaaS, SaaS:
Deployment Models of Cloud Computing:
Here are the various types of cloud computing deployment models:
-
Private Cloud
-
Public Cloud
-
Hybrid Cloud
-
Multi Cloud

Gear Up Your Digital Business Transformation
Digital transformation is predominantly used in the present business context. Digital business transformation is happening on a scale and companies across the globe are striving hard to change their business models in response to digital technologies. Plenty of CEO's want to transform their businesses as they perceive digitalization as an inevitable constituent for today's digital realm. Gartner survey January 2019 reveals that62% of businesses have a transformation program to make their business more digital. In the scope of this digital transformation overview, digital transformation is not just about disruption or technology. Rather it revolves around new competencies and business dimensions. Transformational efforts to become more digitally savvy are often done in an ad hoc manner, without an overarching structure or strategy. As per the 2019 Gartner survey, more than 70% of managers say their company is less than halfway through a business model change and are dissatisfied with the current transformation efforts. Businesses get stuck on their transformation journey and the problem is the snail’s pace at which that change is occurring. There is a lack of clarity about the right business model change. Changing market dynamics and blurring industry boundaries are yet another impediments faced A holistic approach with present and future shifts in mind can solve the problem. This needs a staged approach with a clear roadmap and shared understanding among the stakeholders. This approach can be daunting, the future state of the business should be accessed first and connected with the current business. The transformational vision for the future should be made diligently without jeopardizing the existing business. .
Business Model Transformation
The business life cycle is dabbling across industries, creating an alarming imperative to innovate and to remain relevant in the highly volatile and ambiguous world. Inventing a new business model isn't a child's play. The proposed new business model should be deliberately connected to other model components to boost the firm’s competitiveness. Firstly, embarking on business model transformation is one of discovery. The functional leaders should explicitly understand the need, purpose and the method of transformation. Clarity and visibility are essential elements to propagate the business model change. The rise of new digital technologies and the disruption that brings to the market should be analyzed before the execution of the business model change. Digital or not, the business model change should include four components:
-
Value proposition
The implied promise a company makes to its customers regarding the value of products and services.
-
Customer
Individuals who purchase your product and services. The value proposition is made based on the customer analysis.
-
Capabilities
Recognizes value and measure costs associated with the necessary capabilities.
-
Finance
Recognizes value and measure costs associated with the necessary capabilities.
"More than 70% of managers say their company is less than halfway through a business model change and are dissatisfied with the current transformation efforts".
Transformation Requires a Paradigm Shift
The new paradigm has the companies to focus on broader sets of options and simultaneously anticipate future business model changes. Going digital involves all aspects of the business from customer experience, operational process, and business model change. It includes a paradigm shift in systems and process integration:
- Enabling targeted analytics for deeper and sound decision-making.
- Shared knowledge and information among the functional leaders and executives.
- Tracking and monitoring the entire shift process for better performance.
- Adapting to resilient business models to trigger the transformational process.
- Leveraging and capturing real-time data to enhance & improve customer experience.
Digitalization requires a paradigm shift and a different way of discovering and interpreting which is called as "discontinuous learning".
Discontinuous Learning
Discontinuous learning is found to be more effective as it unveils new market dynamics that require new business models. This discontinues approach is well suited for the fast-paced and unpredictable digital era. When compared to a traditional business approach, discontinuous learning reduces the reliance on historical assumptions. Hence the discontinuous approach forces the business to rethink and deeply investigate the current business model and help uncover the future unknowns. It further propels the understanding of digital change required for the business. Therefore, the functional leaders can develop business pilots in a targeted and disruptive way. Discontinuous learning catalyzes transformation efforts. Research shows that businesses that opt for the discontinuous learning approach achieve 10x digital business transformation goals of those taking a traditional approach.
Deconstruct business models
The business model is the core of any company's marketing strategy. A viable business model is essential for digital transformation. To explore the potentials of business initiatives, companies deconstruct the business model test and disperse them in different markets. Deconstructing and innovating new business models provide valuable knowledge that can make a full pilot more successful. Such pilots developed must depict and resonate with the purpose of the business, technology infrastructure, human and physical resources, organizational structures, and strategies along with other business elements relevant to the enterprise.
Wrapping-up: Winners take a different approach
Digital transformation even goes beyond the use of digital technologies. Despite all the technology it’s still about (digital) customer experience, stakeholder experiences or the human dimensions, empowered by processes, information and from transformational technology to transformation economy. Not all transformation leads to success, winners understand this and take a different approach. To stay ahead of the curve winners, follow the "discontinuous learning" approach and deconstruct their business models to suit the fast-paced digital evolution and stay in line with the digital transformation.
How HCM Can Boost a Company’s Overall Success
In any organization, functional or organizational operational has to be adroit. For this accomplishment, work force is quite essential.

Performance Monitoring
Monitoring each employee’s performance is very complicated. Everyone has a different type of tasks and roles to perform. This has to be monitored accurately so that it can be considered for any type of performance appraisal or yearly bonus. Using a standard set for indicating performance, setting a task-based business insight is very important. Most people avoid these metrics because of uncertainties without any solution in place. They try to evaluate manually. However, manual evaluation will not show the exact result or the scenario. So many organizations just stick with the base report analysis. These reports will be not helpful for the longer duration as they might clog corporate reporting standards. To solve the problem, NEXT Inc's HCMS (Human Capital Management System) provides a strategic and qualitative performance management approach in which overall objectives are defined on the basis of four perspectives- Financial, Customer, Learning, and Growth.

SlothBot: A Robot Designed For Environmental Monitoring and Conserves Energy
Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have found a new robot dubbed the "SlothBot" for tracking environmental changes while conserving energy. This robot is used to predict weather and chemical factors in the environment. The proof-of-concept hyper-efficient robot, described May 21, 2019, at the International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) in Montreal. In robotics, there are faster and extreme robots capable of doing complex serious of actions automatically. But there are many applications where there is no need to be fast. You just have to observe persistently on what's going on. Here is why "SlothBot" comes in and moves only when necessary- to monitor environmental changes. This robotic sloth is purposely slow and designed to mimic the efficiency of one of the laziest creatures on earth the sloth.
Inspired by the Sloth
The life of a sloth is slow moving and stay in the same tree for years. Since they have a slow metabolism, they need very little food. The sloth moves slowly than any other mammal on Earth and they conserve energy as a well. Inspired by the lifestyle of the sloth, researchers have developed this environment-tracking robot. Many environment monitors like a flying drone need a lot of energy. The thing that costs energy more than anything else is moving. When it comes to environment robots, the movements should be restricted to conserve and save energy. Hence, the life of a sloth resonates well for a robot with fewer movements, persistence in a limited area and requires less energy.
"SlothBot is used for Environmental Monitoring, Precision Agriculture, Infrastructure Support, and certain Security Applications".
SlothBot Working Mechanism
SlothBot consists of two bodies connected by an actuated hinge. Each body holds a driving motor, linked to a rim on which a tire is mounted. It has two solar panelsand designed to remain in the forest canopy continuously for months. Hanging on a tress branch, it would move when necessary to track the environment changes and gain sunlight. The SlothBot consist of 3D printed gears and is designed to grip horizontally-strung cables with its battery-powered rubber wheels. It then uses those wheels to move along the cables, periodically switching from one cable to another within a linked network. Therefore, SlothBot is used for environmental monitoring, precision agriculture, infrastructure support, and certain security applications. There are enormous innovations happening around the globe and SlothBot is one of the mounting evidence for technology advancement. Next Inc is in the frontier of technology providing robust solutions for Agri-Industries to thrive.
