Invariably, some CIOs or CEOs from companies big and small will lament the administrative burden yet another EU regulation puts on them. Give me the place to […]
DXC Labs has been leading the R&D for our industrialized AI offering by rapidly developing prototypes of machine learning solutions for various “data stories.” These prototypes (or minimum viable products) can be developed quickly to show customers actionable insights and engage them in deeper discussions. The prototypes, which we also call accelerators, lay the groundwork […]
Data permeates our lives. And, while data is measurable, it is also abstract, making it difficult for people to grasp its size or scale. This video shows data units re-imagined as more tangible objects, so we can more easily comprehend their scale. Logan Wilt is a data scientist for DXC. She is interested in practical […]
Often in any “technical” field (and I use that term very loosely), it can be quite hard to differentiate between the facts and the fiction — the latter normally created either by over-zealous product marketing or an over-increasing circle of folklore.

Il est facile de tomber dans le piège qui nous pousse à prendre pour acquises les technologies fantastiques que nous utilisons au quotidien dans notre monde axé sur le savoir et les données. Pourtant, il est parfois important de prendre un peu de recul et de nous rappeler à nous-mêmes que nous vivons vraiment une […]
As your enterprise begins its digital journey, you may notice that, while development tools change, many of the design principles remain. The same is true for my area of expertise: performance engineering. Over the past decades, we have developed measurement, monitoring and alerting tools to ensure good performance on mainframes, minicomputers, client/server, Web and Web […]
