  • Blockchain vs. Traditional Databases: What to Choose When

    Choosing between a conventional database and a blockchain is less a “this or that” question than a decision about trust models, write patterns, and governance. Traditional databases reign whenever you need ACID-compliant CRUD operations at micro-second latency, while blockchains excel where multiple parties must reach tamper-proof agreement without a central operator. In practice, many 2025…

  • Optimizing Your Deep Learning Workflows: Tips & Tricks

    Modern image or language corpora easily pass 10 TB, so even a 300 MB s⁻¹ SATA SSD becomes the choke-point long before your shiny Hopper card reaches 80 % utilisation. Data must stream fast enough, in the right precision, across all GPUs while gradients rendezvous over NCCL; otherwise the accelerator idles and the cloud bill…

  • Guide to Edge Computing for Remote Offices

    Edge computing pushes compute, storage and analytics out of distant data-centres and into the branch, store or factory floor itself—shrinking latency from hundreds of milliseconds to single-digit figures, slashing back-haul bandwidth, and keeping critical apps running even when the WAN is down. This guide walks small and mid-size enterprises (SMEs) through the “what, why and…

  • Comparing Cloud vs. On-Prem HPC: Cost & Performance

    Public-cloud providers now rent H100 and MI300 GPU nodes by the minute, while appliance vendors ship “datacenter-in-a-box” racks that can sit in an office closet. Each path offers clear advantages: clouds excel at bursty or exploratory work because you spin resources up and down on demand CloudZero, whereas on-premises clusters shine when jobs run 24…

  • Smart Contract Security Best Practices (2025 Edition)

    Record-breaking exploits have already siphoned more than US $3.1 billion from blockchain users in the first half of 2025 alone Cointelegraph. Audit reports show that 56 % of successful attacks now originate off-chain but still culminate in on-chain losses, underscoring that vulnerability windows extend well beyond Solidity code Halborn. Yet on-chain bugs remain devastating: Nomad…

  • Top 5 GPU Choices for AI Research in 2025

    In 2025 the GPU landscape has splintered into distinct tiers—from data-center behemoths built for trillion-parameter language models to prosumer cards that still punch above their weight in mid-sized labs. Selecting the right accelerator therefore hinges on three levers: available memory (can the full batch fit?); arithmetic throughput in the precisions your code uses (FP32/ TF32…

  • Why a Datacenter‑in‑a‑Box Might Be Right for Your SME

    Estimated reading time: 11 minutes Small and mid‑size enterprises (SMEs) are facing an unprecedented digital squeeze. Customers expect lightning‑fast online experiences, regulators demand airtight compliance, and competitors leverage data analytics that once required Fortune‑500 budgets. Yet most SMEs still run critical workloads on a mish‑mash of aging tower servers crammed under desks, external drives perched…

  • Introduction to Blockchain for Enterprises

    Estimated reading time: 8 minutes Digital transformation now touches every corner of the enterprise—yet few technologies generate as much strategic curiosity (and confusion) as blockchain. Once synonymous only with cryptocurrencies, blockchain is rapidly maturing into an enterprise‑grade foundation for streamlining multiparty processes, hardening data integrity, and unlocking new business models. This article demystifies the core concepts, compares…
