3 industries that are using 3D printing software to change the world! 3D printing is creating new commercial and industrial objects by removing time, expense and complexity from the process. Traditional fabrication methods where experts had to create individualized moulds, assemble multiple components, and construct items from multiple pieces, are no longer needed. This process involved many different materials, a wide variety of highly trained workers, and several expensive trials before the perfect object was finally created. But 3D printing just needs a sample created by factory for testing and the printers can create the items from three-dimensional CAD drawings.

According to a 2013 report by MarketsandMarkets, the 3D printing field is expected to grow more than 14% annually to become an $8.4 billion industry by 2020. As per the…

6 parameters to use when evaluating 3D printing software The 3D printing technology is using different materials and processes, each of which has distinct strengths and limitations. By evaluating your software you can determine whether the acquisition of a 3D printer is the right move for you. Once you have made that determination, thoroughly evaluate your needs against what is available. You must assess whether there are hidden costs or extras that have not been discussed in any publications or presented by the vendor.

There are numerous different aspects that must be considered ahead of a decision to deploy 3D print workflow software. The following are the parameters you must consider while evaluating 3D…

Are you spending too much on IaaS? (Part 1 of 2) IaaS is a rapidly growing methodology in cloud technology. It is a self-service model for accessing, monitoring and managing remote data center infrastructure. Instead of buying hardware, organizations and enterprises can purchase IaaS, which is based on consumption. With IaaS, users can gain instant productivity and increased capacity. Even though IaaS provides several benefits, businesses have little visibility into or control over their cloud solutions’ true cost.

As organizations are making more use of public cloud IaaS, it must have the ability to monitor, manage and optimize the use of IaaS services in a cost-effective manner. Business…

Why do banks still use mainframes? The rise of startups, the emergence of new technologies like big data, and faster networks. All of these are making most of us believe that distributed computing is here to replace the age old centralized computing. In other words, with the emergence of cloud and mobile computing, mainframes should soon become an obsolete technology.

Well interestingly enough, mainframes don’t seem to be going out of the picture anytime soon. Ever since the launch of IBM’s first mainframe range in 1964, System/360, mainframes have never…

3 steps to move Procure-To-Pay to the cloud computing The main objective of a Procure-To-Pay software system is to automate processes by introducing efficiency controls. For example, to enforce buying controls, the Procure-To-Pay software may cross-reference purchasing budgets. This will ensure the budget’s compliance with pre-defined buying limits.

A requisition that is within pre-defined limits will get programmatically routed for approval. Once it gets approved, a purchase order is immediately sent to the correct supplier by email. A…
