The pace of innovation has changed. Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) can no longer take years to introduce new products or update functionality in existing products. If your customers can’t get what they want, when they want it, they’re quick to go elsewhere.
OEMs in nearly every industry are becoming...

With the recent rise of the Internet of Things (IoT), 14 billion devices are now connected. However, the growth of this is also significant, by 2020 it is predicted that over 50 billion devices will be connected. With these devices connected, systems are opened up for remote access and control. In turn, this has shown...
