As individuals, organizations, and nations
across the world posed a strong front against the
havoc wreaked by the COVID-19 pandemic,
technology became their strong ally. With the
help of digital transformation, next-gen
technologies, and Quality Assurance services, we
are finally saying goodbye to one of the most
trying years.  The need for DevOps and
automation in manufacturing  Times have
changed, demands have changed, and there is a
need for changing the ways in which we deal
with the problems at hand and even, function.
Manufacturing industry, in particular, have to
evaluate and implement solutions to keep the
lights on in their factories as it has been one
of the most negatively impacted sectors during
the current pandemic. With limited remote working
functionalities and digital transformation in the
infant stage, manufacturing industry is hit hard
by the closed production lines, social distancing
and heavy dependency on manual workers.  By
taking a DevOps-driven approach for automation in
manufacturing, the sector can create
cross-functional process, streamline workflows,
enhance the productivity, gain real-time
performance visibility, and identify end-to-end
accountability. Implementing DevOps helps
underline the importance of taking a
birds-eye-view at the performance of the whole
system for identifying bottlenecks quickly,
enabling and amplifying feedback loops for
maximum efficiency, and creating a culture of
continuous improvement for integrating quality
into the releases.

Media Entertainment  The difference that the
pandemic has brought is the lack of choice.
Earlier, consumers had the option to choose their
preferred mode of entertainment and media
consumption print or digital, OTT or Pay TV,
virtual events or physical events. Now, with
major events getting cancelled, show productions
and shootings halted, and movie theatres and
public places shut down, there is not really a
choice to consumers except for going the digital
way to fulfill their media and entertainment
needs.  Digital platforms have become the sole
escape for the locked-down and quarantined
population. In times like these, it is essential
that the media entertainment companies grab
this opportunity by all means and offer the best
experience to their customers. Gartner research
has shown that more than 80 of retailers have or
plan to implement AI solutions across 5 key
merchandising processes by 2021 product
development and selection planning buying
demand forecasting and allocation and
replenishment to better deal with situations like
the COVID-19 pandemic better.

QA and software testing for business
resilience  With the help of zero-touch
technology, which is also known as no-touch,
touchless, and contactless, it can become
possible to perform the necessary activities
without exposing oneself to a possible
contagion. However critical this transition from
a high-touch world to a high-tech world is, it
will not be an easy one. While there are a few
sectors and areas where no-touch technology has
been implemented before the COVID-19 crisis, but
the usage was scarce and scattered. Now, we need
the implementation to be widespread and prominent
in every aspect of our lives.  More than
convenience, the zero-touch technology is about
establishing trust in the customers who are
panicked and dubious of every object and surface
that do not belong to them. Therefore, having a
zero-touch technology software application
can empower every business to not only retain
their customers but also imbibe a greater sense
of trust and safety among them.  Read Full Blog
