Today, low barriers to entry have encouraged an explosion of DNBs, flooding the market with the fruits of creative entrepreneurship. However, DNBs that break through with outsize investor returns are rare. Over the past two decades, fewer than 0.5 percent of DNBs have reached $100 million in revenues. In fact, more than 90 percent of businesses that originated through e-commerce earn less than $1 million in annual revenues (Exhibit 1).4 Investors face the challenge of sifting through concepts to determine which are worthy of the capital required to scale a business or buy into an existing company at high multiples.

So, What’s a Transformer Model? A transformer model is a neural network that learns context and thus meaning by tracking relationships in sequential data like the words in this sentence. Transformer models apply an evolving set of mathematical techniques, called attention or self-attention, to detect subtle ways even distant data elements in a series influence and depend on each other. First described in a 2017 paper from Google, transformers are among the newest and one of the most powerful classes of models invented to date. They’re driving a wave of advances in machine learning some have dubbed transformer AI. Stanford researchers called transformers “foundation models” in an August 2021 paper because they see them driving a paradigm shift in AI. The “sheer scale and scope of foundation models over the last few years have stretched our imagination of what is possible,” they wrote.

Even before congested ports and parts and labor shortages began to snarl supply chains in 2020, companies needed to update their supply-chain technology. They haven’t done themselves any favors by clinging to manual systems and antiquated software, including one widely used application that’s so old the provider will soon stop supporting it.

As customer and business demands accelerate, site reliability engineers, ITOps teams, developers and management need operational visibility into their entire architecture. But complex modern infrastructure and applications make answering questions about what happened, who was affected and how it can be fixed more difficult than ever. Observability systems enable you to inspect and understand your application stack — but what is observability, and how does it differ from simple monitoring?
- The complementary relationship between observability and monitoring - The three critical pillars to achieve observability - How to build observability into your application environment - How observability helps you tame complexity and reduce MTTR

The socio-economic impacts on cities during the COVID-19 pandemic have been brutal, leading to increasing inequalities and record numbers of unemployment around the world. While cities endure lockdowns in order to ensure decent levels of health, the challenges linked to the unfolding of the pandemic have led to the need for a radical re-think of the city, leading to the re-emergence of a concept, initially proposed in 2016 by Carlos Moreno: the “15-Minute City”. The concept, offering a novel perspective of “chrono-urbanism”, adds to existing thematic of Smart Cities and the rhetoric of building more humane urban fabrics, outlined by Christopher Alexander, and that of building safer, more resilient, sustainable and inclusive cities, as depicted in the Sustainable Development Goal 11 of the United Nations. With the concept gaining ground in popular media and its subsequent adoption at policy level in a number of cities of varying scale and geographies, the present paper sets forth to introduce the concept, its origins, intent and future directions.

The core idea behind data lineage is the ability to fully understand how data flows from one place to another within the infrastructure that was built to house and process it. It seems like it should not be a difficult problem, but it is. In fact, it is a huge issue for organizations as they face 2022 and beyond. If organizations do not know where their data comes from or goes, they have uncontrolled environments that have risk on many different levels. Having uncontrolled data environments means that it is also very difficult to extract value from data, and data is the new oil or new gold. Organizations that cannot extract value from data stand a good chance of being outcompeted and replaced by organizations that can.
