DAY 6274

Jalsa, Mumbai Aopr 20, 2025 Sun 11:17 pm

🪔 ,

April 21 .. birthday greetings and happiness to Ef Mousumi Biswas .. and Ef Arijit Bhattacharya from Kolkata .. 🙏🏽❤️🚩.. the wishes from the Ef family continue with warmth .. and love 🌺

The AI debate became the topic of discussion on the dining table ad there were many potent points raised - bith positive and a little indifferent ..

The young acknowledged it with reason and able argument .. some of the mid elders disagreed mildly .. and the end was kind of neutral ..

Blessed be they of the next GEN .. their minds are sorted out well in advance .. and why not .. we shall not be around till time in advance , but they and their progeny shall .. as has been the norm through generations ...

The IPL is now the greatest attraction throughout the day .. particularly on the Sunday, for the two on the day .. and there is never a debate on that ..

🤣

.. and I am most appreciative to read the comments from the Ef on the topic of the day - AI .. appreciative because some of the reactions and texts are valid and interesting to know .. the aspect expressed in all has a legitimate argument and that is most healthy ..

I am happy that we could all react to the Blog contents in the manner they have done .. my gratitude .. such a joy to get different views , valid and meaningful ..

And it is not the end of the day or the debate .. some impressions of the Gen X and some from the just passed Gen .. and some that were never ever the Gen are interesting as well :

The Printing Press (15th Century)

Fear: Scribes, monks, and elites thought it would destroy the value of knowledge, lead to mass misinformation, and eliminate jobs. Reality: It democratized knowledge, spurred the Renaissance and Reformation, and created entirely new industries—publishing, journalism, and education.

⸻

Industrial Revolution (18th–19th Century)

Fear: Machines would replace all human labor. The Luddites famously destroyed machinery in protest. Reality: Some manual labor jobs were displaced, but the economy exploded with new roles in manufacturing, logistics, engineering, and management. Overall employment and productivity soared.

⸻

Automobiles (Early 20th Century)

Fear: People feared job losses for carriage makers, stable hands, and horseshoe smiths. Cities worried about traffic, accidents, and social decay. Reality: The car industry became one of the largest employers in the world. It reshaped economies, enabled suburbia, and created new sectors like travel, road infrastructure, and auto repair.

⸻

Personal Computers (1980s)

Fear: Office workers would be replaced by machines; people worried about becoming obsolete. Reality: Computers made work faster and created entire industries: IT, software development, cybersecurity, and tech support. It transformed how we live and work.

⸻

The Internet (1990s)

Fear: It would destroy jobs in retail, publishing, and communication. Some thought it would unravel social order. Reality: E-commerce, digital marketing, remote work, and the creator economy now thrive. It connected the world and opened new opportunities.

⸻

ATMs (1970s–80s)

Fear: Bank tellers would lose their jobs en masse. Reality: ATMs handled routine tasks, but banks actually hired more tellers for customer service roles as they opened more branches thanks to reduced transaction costs.

⸻

Robotics & Automation (Factory work, 20th century–today)

Fear: Mass unemployment in factories. Reality: While some jobs shifted or ended, others evolved—robot maintenance, programming, design. Productivity gains created new jobs elsewhere.

The fear is not for losing jobs. It is the compromise of intellectual property and use without compensation. This case is slightly different.

I think AI will only make humans smarter. If we use it to our advantage.

That’s been happening for the last 10 years anyway

Not something new

You can’t control that in this day and age

YouTube & User-Generated Content (mid-2000s onward)

Initial Fear: When YouTube exploded, many in the entertainment industry panicked. The fear was that copyrighted material—music, TV clips, movies—would be shared freely without compensation. Creators and rights holders worried their content would be pirated, devalued, and that they’d lose control over distribution.

What Actually Happened: YouTube evolved to protect IP and monetize it through systems like Content ID, which allows rights holders to:

Automatically detect when their content is used

Choose to block, track, or monetize that usage

Earn revenue from ads run on videos using their IP (even when others post it)

Instead of wiping out creators or studios, it became a massive revenue stream—especially for musicians, media companies, and creators. Entire business models emerged around fair use, remixes, and reactions—with compensation built in.

Key Shift: The system went from “piracy risk” to “profit partner,” by embracing tech that recognized and enforced IP rights at scale.

This lead to higher profits and more money for owners and content btw

You just have to restructure the compensation laws and rewrite contracts

It’s only going to benefit artists in the long run ‎

Yes

They can IP it

That is the hope

It’s the spread of your content and material without you putting a penny towards it

Cannot blindly sign off everything in contracts anymore. Has to be a lot more specific.

Yes that’s for sure

“Automation hasn’t erased jobs��it’s changed where human effort goes.”

Another good one is “hard work beats talent when talent stops working hard”

Which has absolutely nothing to with AI right now but 🤣

These ladies and Gentlemen of the Ef jury are various conversational opinions on AI .. I am merely pasting them for a view and an opinion ..

And among all the brouhaha about AI .. we simply forgot the Sunday well wishers .. and so ..

my love and the length be of immense .. pardon

On February 10, employees at the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) received an email asking them to list every contract at the bureau and note whether or not it was “critical” to the agency, as well as whether it contained any DEI components. This email was signed by Scott Langmack, who identified himself as a senior adviser to the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Langmack, according to his LinkedIn, already has another job: He’s the chief operating officer of Kukun, a property technology company that is, according to its website, “on a long-term mission to aggregate the hardest to find data.”

As is the case with other DOGE operatives—Tom Krause, for example, is performing the duties of the fiscal assistant secretary at the Treasury while holding down a day job as a software CEO at a company with millions in contracts with the Treasury—this could potentially create a conflict of interest, especially given a specific aspect of his role: According to sources and government documents reviewed by WIRED, Langmack has application-level access to some of the most critical and sensitive systems inside HUD, one of which contains records mapping billions of dollars in expenditures.

Another DOGE operative WIRED has identified is Michael Mirski, who works for TCC Management, a Michigan-based company that owns and operates mobile home parks across the US, and graduated from the Wharton School in 2014. (In a story he wrote for the school’s website, he asserted that the most important thing he learned there was to “Develop the infrastructure to collect data.”) According to the documents, he has write privileges on—meaning he can input overall changes to—a system that controls who has access to HUD systems.

Between them, records reviewed by WIRED show, the DOGE operatives have access to five different HUD systems. According to a HUD source with direct knowledge, this gives the DOGE operatives access to vast troves of data. These range from the individual identities of every single federal public housing voucher holder in the US, along with their financial information, to information on the hospitals, nursing homes, multifamily housing, and senior living facilities that HUD helps finance, as well as data on everything from homelessness rates to environmental and health hazards to federally insured mortgages.

Put together, experts and HUD sources say, all of this could give someone with access unique insight into the US real estate market.

Kukun did not respond to requests for comment about whether Langmack is drawing a salary while working at HUD or how long he will be with the department. A woman who answered the phone at TCC Management headquarters in Michigan but did not identify herself said Mirksi was "on leave until July." In response to a request for comment about Langmack’s access to systems, HUD spokesperson Kasey Lovett said, “DOGE and HUD are working as a team; to insinuate anything else is false. To further illustrate this unified mission, the secretary established a HUD DOGE taskforce.” In response to specific questions about Mirski’s access to systems and background and qualifications, she said, “We have not—and will not—comment on individual personnel. We are focused on serving the American people and working as one team.”

The property technology, or proptech, market covers a wide range of companies offering products and services meant to, for example, automate tenant-landlord interactions, or expedite the home purchasing process. Kukun focuses on helping homeowners and real estate investors assess the return on investment they’d get from renovating their properties and on predictive analytics that model where property values will rise in the future.

Doing this kind of estimation requires the use of what’s called an automated valuation model (AVM), a machine-learning model that predicts the prices or rents of certain properties. In April 2024, Kukun was one of eight companies selected to receive support from REACH, an accelerator run by the venture capital arm of the National Association of Realtors (NAR). Last year NAR agreed to a settlement with Missouri homebuyers, who alleged that realtor fees and certain listing requirements were anticompetitive.

“If you can better predict than others how a certain neighborhood will develop, you can invest in that market,” says Fabian Braesemann, a researcher at the Oxford Internet Institute. Doing so requires data, access to which can make any machine-learning model more accurate and more monetizable. This is the crux of the potential conflict of interest: While it is unclear how Langmack and Mirski are using or interpreting it in their roles at HUD, what is clear is that they have access to a wide range of sensitive data.

According to employees at HUD who spoke to WIRED on the condition of anonymity, there is currently a six-person DOGE team operating within the department. Four members are HUD employees whose tenures predate the current administration and have been assigned to the group; the others are Mirski and Langmack. The records reviewed by WIRED show that Mirski has been given read and write access to three different HUD systems, as well as read-only access to two more, while Langmack has been given read and write access to two of HUD’s core systems.

A positive, from one source’s perspective, is the fact that the DOGE operatives have been given application-level access to the systems, rather than direct access to the databases themselves. In theory, this means that they can only interact with the data through user interfaces, rather than having direct access to the server, which could allow them to execute queries directly on the database or make unrestricted or irreparable changes. However, this source still sees dangers inherent in granting this level of access.

“There are probably a dozen-plus ways that [application-level] read/write access to WASS or LOCCS could be translated into the entire databases being exfiltrated,” they said. There is no specific reason to think that DOGE operatives have inappropriately moved data—but even the possibility cuts against standard security protocols that HUD sources say are typically in place.

LOCCS, or Line of Credit Control System, is the first system to which both DOGE operatives within HUD, according to the records reviewed by WIRED, have both read and write access. Essentially HUD’s banking system, LOCCS “handles disbursement and cash management for the majority of HUD grant programs,” according to a user guide. Billions of dollars flow through the system every year, funding everything from public housing to disaster relief—such as rebuilding from the recent LA wildfires—to food security programs and rent payments.

The current balance in the LOCCS system, according to a record reviewed by WIRED, is over $100 billion—money Congress has approved for HUD projects but which has yet to be drawn down. Much of this money has been earmarked to cover disaster assistance and community development work, a source at the agency says.

Normally, those who have access to LOCCS require additional processing and approvals to access the system, and most only have “read” access, department employees say.

“Read/write is used for executing contracts and grants on the LOCCS side,” says one person. “It normally has strict banking procedures around doing anything with funds. For instance, you usually need at least two people to approve any decisions—same as you would with bank tellers in a physical bank.”

The second system to which documents indicate both DOGE operatives at HUD have both read and write access is the HUD Central Accounting and Program System (HUDCAPS), an “integrated management system for Section 8 programs under the jurisdiction of the Office of Public and Indian Housing,” according to HUD. (Section 8 is a federal program administered through local housing agencies that provides rental assistance, in the form of vouchers, to millions of lower-income families.) This system was a precursor to LOCCS and is currently being phased out, but it is still being used to process the payment of housing vouchers and contains huge amounts of personal information.

There are currently 2.3 million families in receipt of housing vouchers in the US, according to HUD’s own data, but the HUDCAPS database contains information on significantly more individuals because historical data is retained, says a source familiar with the system. People applying for HUD programs like housing vouchers have to submit sensitive personal information, including medical records and personal narratives.

“People entrust these stories to HUD,” the source says. “It’s not data in these systems, it’s operational trust.”

WASS, or the Web Access Security Subsystem, is the third system to which DOGE has both read and write access, though only Mirski has access to this system according to documents reviewed by WIRED. It’s used to grant permissions to other HUD systems. “Most of the functionality in WASS consists of looking up information stored in various tables to tell the security subsystem who you are, where you can go, and what you can do when you get there,” a user manual says.

“WASS is an application for provisioning rights to most if not all other HUD systems,” says a HUD source familiar with the systems who is shocked by Mirski’s level of access, because normally HUD employees don’t have read access, let alone write access. “WASS is the system for setting permissions for all of the other systems.”

In addition to these three systems, documents show that Mirski has read-only access to two others. One, the Integrated Disbursement and Information System (IDIS), is a nationwide database that tracks all HUD programs underway across the country. (“IDIS has confidential data about hidden locations of domestic violence shelters,” a HUD source says, “so even read access in there is horrible.”) The other is the Financial Assessment of Public Housing (FASS-PH), a database designed to “measure the financial condition of public housing agencies and assess their ability to provide safe and decent housing,” according to HUD’s website.

All of this is significant because, in addition to the potential for privacy violations, knowing what is in the records, or even having access to them, presents a serious potential conflict of interest.

“There are often bids to contract any development projects,” says Erin McElroy, an assistant professor at the University of Washington. “I can imagine having insider information definitely benefiting the private market, or those who will move back into the private market,” she alleges.

HUD has an oversight role in the mobile home space, the area on which TCC Management, which appears to have recently wiped its website, focuses. "It’s been a growing area of HUD’s work and focus over the past few decades," says one source there; this includes setting building standards, inspecting factories, and taking in complaints. This presents another potential conflict of interest.

Braesemann says it’s not just the insider access to information and data that could be a potential problem, but that people coming from the private sector may not understand the point of HUD programs. Something like Section 8 housing, he notes, could be perceived as not working in alignment with market forces—“Because there might be higher real estate value, these people should be displaced and go somewhere else”—even though its purpose is specifically to buffer against the market.

Like other government agencies, HUD is facing mass purges of its workforce. NPR has reported that 84 percent of the staff of the Office of Community Planning and Development, which supports homeless people, faces termination, while the president of a union representing HUD workers has estimated that up to half the workforce could be cut The chapter on housing policy in Project 2025—the right-wing playbook to remake the federal government that the Trump administration appears to be following—outlines plans to massively scale back HUD programs like public housing, housing assistance vouchers, and first-time home buyer assistance.

Chris asked me to try and help his friend Woody with a laptop problem.

The laptop, which is a Lenovo ThinkPad T400 from 2008 has been used for car diagnostics for many years.

Woody wanted to upgrade the diagnostic software, but found that the laptop wouldn't connect to the internet.

When I examined the laptop, I saw that it was running Microsoft Windows 7, which had never been updated since it was installed in 2015. The machine had previously ran Windows Vista (2007).

This meant that it was running Internet Explorer 8 which ended support in 2020 and is known to have many security flaws which make it basically unusable.

The laptop had been configured to disable automatic update. It is likely that automatic updates would no longer work in any case because they depend on the underline Internet Explorer Browser.

I managed to install a version of Mozilla's Firefox Browser, one that still supports Windows 7 by downloading it onto a USB stick on a different computer.

I installed the 32-bit version of Firefox 115 ESR, which is the last supported version for Windows 7. I chose the 32-bit version because this edition of Windows 7 is 32-bit instead of 64-bit.

Using Firefox, I successfully connected to the internet and played a YouTube video, which you can see in the video below.

I also had a look at the various themes that the user could apply to the look and feel. Windows 7 was the last version to feature a user selectable Classic theme and system sound effects!

The default theme was called Aero. Also featured in Vista, this theme featured translucency, glass effects that required a decent PC at the time of its release.

The taskbar in Windows 7 was called the 'Super bar' as it allowed for pinning applications by default and was larger in size than previous versions. This could all be configured in the properties dialogue, which would be moved into the settings in Windows 10.

I gave the laptop back to Chris to give to Woody. He will now be able to download and install the updated diagnostics software.

Ideally, Woody should upgrade the laptop to a later version of Windows such as Windows 8.1 or 10, but even if he doesn't, it should still continue to work provided he does not connect it to the network.

It was fun trying out Windows 7 once again.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_7

Windows 7 was released in 2009 and was a successful operating system like Windows XP which was released in 2001!

Windows 7 intended to fix the issues in Windows Vista.

Its development started in 2006, with a beta release in 2008 under the codename Vienna. Its first and only service pack (SP1) came out in 2011.

Windows 7 used the Vista kernel, which is still used today as a base for compatibility in all later versions of Windows.

Mainstream support for Windows 7 ended in 2015 and extended support ended at the start of 2020.

Chris took the Lenovo laptop back to Woody and they successfully downloaded the diagnostics software through the Firefox browser and it worked perfectly.

A complete success!

What is Enterprise Fleet Management?

As is revealed in today’s world business environment, any organization must manage its resources appropriately. Thus, for companies and firms having major operations related to transportation and logistics, it becomes even more essential to manage their fleets.

Now, let’s start with the basics: what does enterprise fleet management mean? Now let’s discuss this idea and figure out how it can be of great benefit to the business processes.

Understanding what is Enterprise Fleet Management

Fleet management within an enterprise could be described as a strategic approach to managing and supervising such a company's vehicle fleet. The areas include its acquisition and maintenance, driver and vehicle management, and laws governing the automobile industry. Fleet management is prospective to optimize the operating costs and enhance the safety and productivity of both fleets and their drivers.

In an enterprise environment, fleet management goes beyond tracking the vehicles; it is more about getting improved ways of running organizations. Fleet management is important irrespective of whether it involves delivery vans, trucks, or even corporate cars if the business owns a set of cars for business use.

The outcome highlights the fundamental issues of fleet management.

Vehicle Acquisition and Disposal: Picking the correct car for your fleet, beginning from procurement to the time of disposal.

Maintenance and Repair: Managing to schedule vehicles for maintenance and repairs regularly to make sure that they are in good working condition to reduce time loss.

Fuel Management: Fuel efficiency management by controlling consumption and considering these to minimize fuel expenses by using fuel-efficient driving techniques and other energy resources.

Driver Management: Incorporating training and supervision of drivers as well as planning meals nt to support safety, compliance, and efficiency among the drivers.

Compliance and Risk Management: The safety of all the used vehicles as well as the used drivers with brutal and international requirements and managing of risk exposures of operating fleets.

Here we will discuss the concept of Fleet Management Software. Inefficiently managing all these components, many businesses turn to the use of fleet management software. This is because it acts as a platform for accessing any information regarding the fleet, including real-time data and automated operations of the fleet.

Key Features of Fleet Management Software

GPS Tracking: Precise vehicle location in real-time to increase efficiency and controllers. 

Maintenance Scheduling: Schedule reminders in case of preventive maintenance and repairs to avoid ‘bottlenecks Management: Proper equipment that tracks fuel usage and gives an indication of wasteful activities. 

Compliance Management: Material properties garages need to comply with set safety measures as well as regulatory requirements.

Driver Performance Monitoring: Measures to monitor and measure drivers’s performance, detect their training requirements, and incentivize them over safe behavior on roads. 

Why Enterprise Fleet Management is So Important

To large companies, fleet management is not only limited to planning on how to ensure that vehicles are running. It’s about being able to harness data and technology in a way that will put you ahead of the competition. Effective management of fleets is known to have numerous benefits, such as cutting costs, satisfying customers, and reducing risks involving drivers and cars, among others. 

However, due to emerging issues such as global warming, companies are now focusing on the use of fleets to be environmentally friendly. This is done through the optimization of routes, timely maintenance of vehicles, and training of the drivers to ensure they are conscious of the impact they make on the environment. 

Being a web-based service, the most advantageous aspect related to an FMS or a Fleet Management Software Development Service is that it can be easily and effectively utilized across the corporate fleet range.

This has led to the increasing need for the development of fleet management software to be able to meet the expanding market need. Custom software, as the name suggests, is designed to improve organizational operations to suit a company’s needs, making it more flexible than packaged software.

A fleet management software development service typically includes

Consultation and Needs Assessment: Ah, awareness of the particular requirements and objectives of your fleet. You need to hire a professional fleet management software development company.

Custom Software Development: Constructing a custom fit that incorporates into the complex structures of the organization and fits the needs of the organization perfectly.

Integration with IoT Devices: The use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices such as GPS trackers or sensors to input real-time information and data.

Ongoing Support and Maintenance: Needed to make sure the software will continue to include all the features and incorporate the latest technologies and that it will cover all current needs of the business.

Conclusion

Okay, then, Fleet management is a system that encompasses all activities that involve control of a company’s fleet of vehicles with the use of the latest technologies in software and quality practices. Fleet management is not only a good idea but a necessity for any business that depends on transportation, where proper management of the company’s fleet is critical to achieving success.

Let it be a handful of vehicles or a multitude, the appropriate strategy in fleet management as enhanced by software changes the equation, provides steps towards optimizing your operations, lowers costs, and enhances the performance of an organization. The fast advancement of technology means that the means and ways used in the implementation of the strategies by the f managers are ever-changing and therefore a very promising industry to follow.

A Comprehensive Guide to the Top Industries Attracting FDI in India

India has emerged as one of the most attractive destinations for Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in recent years, thanks to its robust economic growth, favorable demographics, and ongoing policy reforms. FDI plays a crucial role in stimulating economic development by bringing in capital, technology, and expertise. In this comprehensive guide, we will delve into the top industries that are attracting FDI in India.

1. Information Technology (IT) and Software Services:

India's IT industry has been a pioneer in attracting FDI, fueling the country's economic growth and creating millions of jobs. With a large pool of skilled IT professionals, cost-effective services, and a conducive business environment, India continues to be a global hub for software development, IT outsourcing, and business process outsourcing (BPO).

India's Information Technology (IT) and software services industry have been pivotal in attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) due to several key factors:

1. Skilled Workforce:

India boasts a vast pool of highly skilled IT professionals, including software engineers, developers, and project managers. The country's education system emphasizes STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields, producing a large number of graduates with expertise in computer science and information technology. This skilled workforce is instrumental in delivering high-quality software development, IT outsourcing, and business process outsourcing (BPO) services to clients worldwide.

2. Cost-Effectiveness:

The cost of labor in India is significantly lower compared to developed countries, making it an attractive destination for outsourcing IT projects and services. Foreign companies can leverage India's cost-effective labor market to reduce their operational expenses while maintaining high standards of quality and efficiency. This cost advantage has been a major driver for multinational corporations to set up offshore development centers and service delivery hubs in India.

3. Conducive Business Environment:

India offers a conducive business environment for IT companies, characterized by liberalized policies, supportive government initiatives, and a well-established legal framework. The government has implemented various reforms to promote ease of doing business, simplify regulatory procedures, and encourage foreign investment in the IT sector. Additionally, initiatives such as Digital India and Make in India have further propelled the growth of the IT industry by fostering innovation, entrepreneurship, and technology adoption.

4. Global Reputation:

Over the years, India has built a strong reputation as a leading destination for IT and software services globally.

Smart Growth: Cost-Saving Expansion Tactics for Startups

For any growing startup, scaling up in a cost-effective way is a dream and a dilemma. These young businesses aim to boost their reach and operations. The big question is: Can they increase their team size without burning through their budget? This is where staff augmentation comes in. It's a practical, flexible method that lets startups grow without breaking the bank.

A Look at Startup Expansion Pitfalls

Take a fictional startup, ByteWave, as a case in point. Three university pals had a fantastic idea for a cloud-based service and ByteWave was born. After a year, their user base ballooned to 50,000. This explosive growth brought a heap of operational headaches. ByteWave's tiny 12-member team was swamped, battling to stay afloat amidst demands for customer support, software updates, and fresh feature rollouts.

Traditional hiring seemed the logical move. However, it's a costly option. The Society for Human Resource Management estimates the average cost of recruiting a new U.S. worker is $4,129, taking an average of 42 days. For a startup like ByteWave, this approach was simply out of reach in terms of time and budget.

The Benefits of Staff Augmentation

Staff augmentation is a far more efficient solution. It gives startups the flexibility to temporarily hire skilled personnel for key roles. ByteWave could quickly bring in specialist developers and customer service agents for specific projects. This gave the founders the ability to dynamically scale their team, tackling particular problems without the delays and costs of full-time recruitment.

A Smart Financial Move

Staff augmentation brings significant savings. Deloitte's research shows businesses can save as much as 30% in labor costs by adopting flexible staffing models. These cost cuts result from reduced essential overheads like benefits, office space, and training costs. Plus, it speeds up time-to-market. Deloitte's study also discovered projects are completed 20-25% quicker with staff augmentation, giving startups a crucial competitive edge.

Success Stories

Numerous real-world examples demonstrate how startups have used staff augmentation effectively:

Airbnb: To boost user appeal, Airbnb brought in freelance photographers to produce quality property listings, enhancing the platform's appeal without having to recruit full-time photographers.

Slack: During a critical period of rapid growth, Slack used remote contractors to provide 24/7 customer support, avoiding the costs of a large, permanent team.

Uber: Expanding into new locations, Uber used local contractors for tasks such as driver onboarding and market research, allowing fast growth without the long-term overheads of permanent local staffing.

Steps to Implement Staff Augmentation

If you're a startup considering staff augmentation, follow these practical steps:

Be Transparent: Define the needed skills and roles. This helps you find the right talent.

Choose Wisely: Partner with reliable staffing agencies or platforms that are familiar with your industry. They can quickly hook you up with vetted professionals.

Foster a Team Spirit: Treat augmented staff as integral team members. Make sure they attend meetings, have the necessary tools and keep communication lines open.

Be Clear: Set out the scope, deadlines, and deliverables for each project. This ensures all parties are on the same page and promotes effective collaboration.

Share Knowledge: Ensure the knowledge and experience that the temporary staff bring is shared with your permanent team.

Challenge Navigation

Staff augmentation, while beneficial, is not without its obstacles. Here's how to address them:

Building the Team: Temporary staff might not naturally fit into your company culture. To bridge this gap, include them in team activities and clearly communicate your values and aims.

Maintaining Standards: Keep high-quality work by setting clear quality benchmarks, and conducting regular work reviews.

Data Protection: Safeguard critical information with strict NDAs and limit access to crucial systems.

Employee Relations: Permanent team members might feel uneasy about temporary staff. Be clear about the roles of augmented staff and stress that they are an additional resource, not a threat to the core team.

The Way Forward

The move towards flexible work arrangements is increasing. An Upwork study predicts that by 2028, 73% of all teams will include remote workers. This factors make staff augmentation an appealing option for startups. Tools for remote project management and communication like Trello, Asana, and Slack are helping facilitate this shift, allowing efficient collaboration regardless of location.

Conclusion

Staff augmentation can be a lifesaver for startups trying to expand while preserving their budgets. It permits them to bring in specialized skills as needed, accelerate growth, and compete effectively without long-term financial commitments.

WILL CONTAINER REPLACE HYPERVISOR

As with the increasing technology, the way data centers operate has changed over the years due to virtualization. Over the years, different software has been launched that has made it easy for companies to manage their data operating center. This allows companies to operate their open-source object storage data through different operating systems together, thereby maximizing their resources and making their data managing work easy and useful for their business.

Understanding different technological models to their programming for object storage it requires proper knowledge and understanding of each. The same holds for containers as well as hypervisor which have been in the market for quite a time providing companies with different operating solutions.

Let’s understand how they work

Virtual machines- they work through hypervisor removing hardware system and enabling to run the data operating systems.

Containers- work by extracting operating systems and enable one to run data through applications and they have become more famous recently.

Although container technology has been in use since 2013, it became more engaging after the introduction of Docker. Thereby, it is an open-source object storage platform used for building, deploying and managing containerized applications.

The container’s system always works through the underlying operating system using virtual memory support that provides basic services to all the applications. Whereas hypervisors require their operating system for working properly with the help of hardware support.

Although containers, as well as hypervisors, work differently, have distinct and unique features, both the technologies share some similarities such as improving IT managed service efficiency. The profitability of the applications used and enhancing the lifecycle of software development.

And nowadays, it is becoming a hot topic and there is a lot of discussion going on whether containers will take over and replace hypervisors. This has been becoming of keen interest to many people as some are in favor of containers and some are with hypervisor as both the technologies have some particular properties that can help in solving different solutions.

Let’s discuss in detail and understand their functioning, differences and which one is better in terms of technology?

What are virtual machines?

Virtual machines are software-defined computers that run with the help of cloud hosting software thereby allowing multiple applications to run individually through hardware. They are best suited when one needs to operate different applications without letting them interfere with each other.

As the applications run differently on VMs, all applications will have a different set of hardware, which help companies in reducing the money spent on hardware management.

Virtual machines work with physical computers by using software layers that are light-weighted and are called a hypervisor.

A hypervisor that is used for working virtual machines helps in providing fresh service by separating VMs from one another and then allocating processors, memory and storage among them. This can be used by cloud hosting service providers in increasing their network functioning on nodes that are expensive automatically.

Hypervisors allow host machines to have different operating systems thereby allowing them to operate many virtual machines which leads to the maximum use of their resources such as bandwidth and memory.

What is a container?

Containers are also software-defined computers but they operate through a single host operating system. This means all applications have one operating center that allows it to access from anywhere using any applications such as a laptop, in the cloud etc.

Containers use the operating system (OS) virtualization form, that is they use the host operating system to perform their function. The container includes all the code, dependencies and operating system by itself allowing it to run from anywhere with the help of cloud hosting technology.

They promised methods of implementing infrastructure requirements that were streamlined and can be used as an alternative to virtual machines.

Even though containers are known to improve how cloud platforms was developed and deployed, they are still not as secure as VMs.

The same operating system can run different containers and can share their resources and they further, allow streamlining of implemented infrastructure requirements by the system.

Now as we have understood the working of VMs and containers, let’s see the benefits of both the technologies

Benefits of virtual machines

They allow different operating systems to work in one hardware system that maintains energy costs and rack space to cooling, thereby allowing economical gain in the cloud.

This technology provided by cloud managed services is easier to spin up and down and it is much easier to create backups with this system.

Allowing easy backups and restoring images, it is easy and simple to recover from disaster recovery.

It allows the isolated operating system, hence testing of applications is relatively easy, free and simple.

Benefits of containers:

They are light in weight and hence boost significantly faster as compared to VMs within a few seconds and require hardware and fewer operating systems.

They are portable cloud hosting data centers that can be used to run from anywhere which means the cause of the issue is being reduced.

They enable micro-services that allow easy testing of applications, failures related to the single point are reduced and the velocity related to development is increased.

Let’s see the difference between containers and VMs

Hence, looking at all these differences one can make out that, containers have added advantage over the old virtualization technology. As containers are faster, more lightweight and easy to manage than VMs and are way beyond these previous technologies in many ways.

In the case of hypervisor, virtualization is performed through physical hardware having a separate operating system that can be run on the same physical carrier. Hence each hardware requires a separate operating system to run an application and its associated libraries.

Whereas containers virtualize operating systems instead of hardware, thereby each container only contains the application, its library and dependencies.

Containers in a similar way to a virtual machine will allow developers to improve the CPU and use physical machines' memory. Containers through their managed service provider further allow microservice architecture, allowing application components to be deployed and scaled more granularly.

As we have seen the benefits and differences between the two technologies, one must know when to use containers and when to use virtual machines, as many people want to use both and some want to use either of them.

Let’s see when to use hypervisor for cases such as:

Many people want to continue with the virtual machines as they are compatible and consistent with their use and shifting to containers is not the case for them.

VMs provide a single computer or cloud hosting server to run multiple applications together which is only required by most people.

As containers run on host operating systems which is not the case with VMs. Hence, for security purposes, containers are not that safe as they can destroy all the applications together. However, in the case of virtual machines as it includes different hardware and belongs to secure cloud software, so only one application will be damaged.

Container’s turn out to be useful in case of,

Containers enable DevOps and microservices as they are portable and fast, taking microseconds to start working.

Nowadays, many web applications are moving towards a microservices architecture that helps in building web applications from managed service providers. The containers help in providing this feature making it easy for updating and redeploying of the part needed of the application.

Containers contain a scalability property that automatically scales containers, reproduces container images and spin them down when they are not needed.

With increasing technology, people want to move to technology that is fast and has speed, containers in this scenario are way faster than a hypervisor. That also enables fast testing and speed recovery of images when a reboot is performed.

Hence, will containers replace hypervisor?

Although both the cloud hosting technologies share some similarities, both are different from each other in one or the other aspect. Hence, it is not easy to conclude. Before making any final thoughts about it, let's see a few points about each.

Still, a question can arise in mind, why containers?

Although, as stated above there are many reasons to still use virtual machines, containers provide flexibility and portability that is increasing its demand in the multi-cloud platform world and the way they allocate their resources.

Still today many companies do not know how to deploy their new applications when installed, hence containerizing applications being flexible allow easy handling of many clouds hosting data center software environments of modern IT technology.

These containers are also useful for automation and DevOps pipelines including continuous integration and continuous development implementation. This means containers having small size and modularity of building it in small parts allows application buildup completely by stacking those parts together.

They not only increase the efficiency of the system and enhance the working of resources but also save money by preferring for operating multiple processes.

They are quicker to boost up as compared to virtual machines that take minutes in boosting and for recovery.

Another important point is that they have a minimalistic structure and do not need a full operating system or any hardware for its functioning and can be installed and removed without disturbing the whole system.

Containers replace the patching process that was used traditionally, thereby allowing many organizations to respond to various issues faster and making it easy for managing applications.

As containers contain an operating system abstract that operates its operating system, the virtualization problem that is being faced in the case of virtual machines is solved as containers have virtual environments that make it easy to operate different operating systems provided by vendor management.

Still, virtual machines are useful to many

Although containers have more advantages as compared to virtual machines, still there are a few disadvantages associated with them such as security issues with containers as they belong to disturbed cloud software.

Hacking a container is easy as they are using single software for operating multiple applications which can allow one to excess whole cloud hosting system if breaching occurs which is not the case with virtual machines as they contain an additional barrier between VM, host server and other virtual machines.

In case the fresh service software gets affected by malware, it spreads to all the applications as it uses a single operating system which is not the case with virtual machines.

People feel more familiar with virtual machines as they are well established in most organizations for a long time and businesses include teams and procedures that manage the working of VMs such as their deployment, backups and monitoring.

Many times, companies prefer working with an organized operating system type of secure cloud software as one machine, especially for applications that are complex to understand.

Conclusion

Concluding this blog, the final thought is that, as we have seen, both the containers and virtual machine cloud hosting technologies are provided with different problem-solving qualities. Containers help in focusing more on building code, creating better software and making applications work on a faster note whereas, with virtual machines, although they are slower, less portable and heavy still people prefer them in provisioning infrastructure for enterprise, running legacy or any monolithic applications.

Stating that, if one wants to operate a full operating system, they should go for hypervisor and if they want to have service from a cloud managed service provider that is lightweight and in a portable manner, one must go for containers.

Hence, it will take time for containers to replace virtual machines as they are still needed by many for running some old-style applications and host multiple operating systems in parallel even though VMs has not had so cloud-native servers. Therefore, it can be said that they are not likely to replace virtual machines as both the technologies complement each other by providing IT managed services instead of replacing each other and both the technologies have a place in the modern data center.

Why WordPress Is Still the Best CMS for Business Websites in 2025

In a world full of website builders and content management systems (CMS), one name has stood the test of time — WordPress. Despite newer tools entering the market, WordPress continues to lead the way in 2025 as the most trusted platform for building professional, secure, and scalable websites.

But what makes WordPress such a powerful CMS? And why do businesses across all industries — from tech startups to cafes and tour operators — still rely on it?

What is a CMS, and Why Do You Need One?

A Content Management System (CMS) is a software platform that allows users to create, manage, and modify content on a website without needing to code everything from scratch.

Whether it’s updating a product page, writing a blog post, or adding new services, a CMS makes it simple and quick.

Popular CMS Options in 2025 Include:

WordPress

Wix

Squarespace

Shopify (for eCommerce)

Webflow

Among these, WordPress remains the most flexible and scalable, powering over 40% of all websites globally.

Top 7 Reasons Why WordPress Still Dominates in 2025

1. It’s Completely Open-Source and Free

One of WordPress’s biggest advantages is that it’s open-source — you have full control over your site’s design, content, and data.

There are no restrictions on how you use it. You can:

Customize every detail

Migrate your site anytime

Add as many users, pages, or plugins as needed

This level of freedom is unmatched by many other platforms.

2. Limitless Design Flexibility

With over 10,000+ themes and visual builders like Elementor and WPBakery, WordPress gives you endless creative control.

Want a minimalist portfolio? A vibrant online store? A multilingual booking system? WordPress can do it all — and look good while doing it.

3. Thousands of Plugins to Expand Your Site

From SEO and analytics to appointment booking and chat support — WordPress’s 60,000+ plugins let you build exactly what you need.

Popular plugin categories include:

SEO: Yoast, Rank Math

Ecommerce: WooCommerce

Security: Wordfence, Sucuri

Speed: LiteSpeed Cache

Forms: WPForms, Gravity Forms

You’re never limited by your theme — you can add new features anytime.

4. Built-In SEO Superpowers

WordPress is SEO-friendly out of the box. Combine that with tools like Yoast SEO, fast-loading themes, and schema plugins — and you’re looking at a website that’s ready to rank on Google.

Plus, it’s easy to:

Add meta titles and descriptions

Create sitemaps

Control URL structures (permalinks)

Optimize image alt tags

For businesses looking to grow organically, WordPress is the most reliable option.

5. Mobile-Responsive and Fast

Most WordPress themes in 2025 are designed to work seamlessly across all screen sizes — from phones to tablets to desktops. Speed optimization plugins like WP Rocket and LiteSpeed Cache make your website lightning fast — a key factor in both SEO and user retention.

6. Ideal for E-Commerce and Service Businesses

Want to sell products online? WooCommerce — WordPress’s native eCommerce plugin — is robust, easy to use, and supports everything from physical goods to digital services.

And if you’re a service-based business, you can add features like:

Appointment scheduling

Live chat

Online payments

Google Maps integration

All with just a few plugin installations.

7. Large Community and Ongoing Support

WordPress is backed by a massive global community. That means:

Regular software updates

Thousands of tutorials and guides

Developers ready to troubleshoot issues

Countless forums and YouTube channels for self-help

It’s a CMS that’s constantly evolving — and won’t be obsolete next year.

What Types of Businesses Use WordPress in 2025?

The beauty of WordPress is its universal adaptability. It’s used by:

Restaurants and cafes for menu display and reservations

Tour companies for blog posts, package listings, and online bookings

Real estate agents for showcasing properties

Startups for portfolio sites and landing pages

Hospitals and clinics for appointment systems and patient information

Online stores selling everything from handmade items to courses

Even major companies like TechCrunch, Sony, and The New Yorker still trust WordPress.

Should You DIY or Hire a Professional?

WordPress is beginner-friendly — but building a website that is fast, secure, mobile-optimized, and SEO-ready from day one takes expertise.

That’s where a professional web design company in Udaipur comes in. A team that understands design, development, SEO, and user behavior can help you:

Customize themes and plugins

Set up proper security and backup systems

Speed-optimize for Google ranking

Build landing pages that convert

You focus on your business — let the experts handle the tech.

Final Words: WordPress Is Still King in 2025

Trends come and go. Website builders rise and fall. But WordPress continues to rule the CMS world — and for good reason.
