iX 雜誌 2017 第 9 期 主題搶先看

市場概況：工程進化
深度學習，神經網絡，機器學習，AI 人工智慧：會尋找自我、知道如何解決問題、和尋找連接並適應用戶需求的軟體改變了 IT 的基礎。
Amazon、Facebook、和 Google 等分析了現在的大數據時代下產出的大量數據，而 Microsoft 和 IBM 等則希望將 AI 人工智慧的技術能徹底改變辦公環境，同時，讓此技術可以在任何公司使用。

自動採購流程
數位化和工業 4.0 (Industry 4.0，是由德國政府提出的一個高科技計劃) 也改變了公司企業的採購流程。現代 B2B 採購解決方案和購物平台的流程慣例將會更簡化，並將提供更完善的採購流程。 iX 提供了供應商和當前趨勢的概述。

以內存為中心的計算機體系架構
CPU 正忙於在具有不同讀取時間和傳輸速的儲存型式之間的做數據轉換。同時，包括 Intel、富士通 (Fujitsu)、和慧與科技 (Hewlett Packard Enterprise) 在內的幾家公司正在開發能將儲存裝置、RAM、和快取一起提升並發展為重心的架構。在位於巴塞隆納的超級計算中心，研究人員正在為適合的內存應用開發數據模型 。

工業上的 Linux
在工業上，機械的運轉時間大多有幾十年，而軟體也是，這意味著大量保養工程是必要的。Linux 基金會的旗下公司，例如日立、西門子、東芝、和 CodeThink 都在建立於 Linux 的嵌入式和控制系統的統一標準軟體基礎上的“Civil Infrastructure Platform ”（CIP）計劃之中，至少 15 年的時間。 iX 這期也報導了這項計劃的現況。

iX 特刊–Extra “Hosting II”
雲端服務對於企業的好處是顯而易見的：不需要預先投入資金，並且使用後再付款，但同時也有難以管理數據的缺點。這還包括純軟體服務和預先配置的應用伺服器或虛擬專用伺服器（VPS）。而且即使是完整的私有雲 (Private Cloud)，也可以重新定位到任意主機並安全地運行。

Market Overview: Engineering
Deep learning, neural networks, machine learning, AI: Software that finds itself, how to solve problems, find connections and adapts to the user’s needs, is to change the IT basic. Amazon, Facebook, Google and so analyze the data gigantic masses of the Big Data era, while Microsoft, IBM and others want to revolutionize AI technology the office workplace. Meanwhile, the technology can be used in any company.

Automated procurement processes
Digitization and industry 4.0 also change the procurement processes in companies. Modern B2B procurement solutions and shopping platforms are to be relieved of routine routines and provide a comprehensive view of the purchasing process. IX provides an overview of providers and current trends.

Memory-centric computer architectures
CPUs are now busy shifting data between different storage types with different access times and transfer speeds. In the meantime, several companies, including Intel, Fujitsu, HPE, are working on architectures in which storage, RAM and cache are growing together and becoming the focus. At the Barcelona Supercomputing Center, researchers are developing data models for the appropriate in-memory applications.

Linux for the industry
In industry, machines have a running time of several decades and the software is also used for the same time. This means a lot of maintenance for the manufacturers. Under the umbrella of the Linux Foundation work companies such as Hitachi, Siemens, Toshiba and Code Think in the project “Civil Infrastructure Platform” (CIP) on a unified software foundation based on Linux for embedded and control systems, which will consist of at least 15 years. iX reports on the current state of the project.

Topic special iX-Extra “Hosting II”
The benefits of cloud services for enterprises are obvious: No initial investments and payment only after use. This is combined with the lack of control over data management. This includes pure software services as well as pre-configured application servers or virtual private servers (VPS). But even complete private clouds can be relocated to a hoster and operated by it securely.
