Episode Description

In todays’ show I will be joined by Peter Elger - CEO of Four Theorem, author of “AI as a Service” to explore the growth of AI and the technologies that make it available to adopt and exploit. We’ll look at the evolution of software and its decomposition into functional access points; from Monolith to Cloud Services. We will come to understand what Serverless Architecture is and how you can approach this paradigm shift. Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Neural Networks can be adopted readily and can be used to enhance and modernize your applications – we’ll look at how this has been done and give practical guidance on successful approaches. We’ll be discussing the application of AI to do some heavy lifting - and modernize software itself through adoption of micro-services framework / architecture.
