This week on the DockYard Blog, we talked about everything from the cost savings and revenue opportunities of AI in software development to why companies should consider adopting local AI. Click through the titles below to read through what you might have missed.
AI and the Bottom Line: Cost Savings & Revenue Opportunities in Software
- AI-powered tools like code generators, automated testing frameworks, and intelligent debugging systems can significantly speed up software development.
- AI-powered analytics can transform raw data into actionable insights, driving strategic business decisions.
- Revenue-generating AI features enhance customer experience and drive sales growth through intelligent automation and personalized interactions.
gRPC Basics for Rust Developers
- gRPC is an open source Remote Procedure Call framework initially developed by Google. It allows you to define services and their methods using Protocol Buffers (protobuf), a language agnostic, binary serialization format.
- Rust’s zero-cost abstractions and Tonic’s async implementation ensure that your gRPC servers and clients are as fast as possible, with minimal memory overhead.
- By leveraging Tonic, Rust developers can create gRPC services that are fast, scalable and secure, with the added benefit of Rust’s compile time safety guarantees.
Maximizing User Retention with Custom Features Tailored to Your Audience
- Custom software development gives businesses the opportunity to create features specifically designed to meet their audience’s needs, improving engagement, satisfaction, and loyalty.
- Loyal users spend more, refer others, and provide valuable feedback that helps refine the product.
- By leveraging personalization, automation, gamification, and seamless integrations, businesses can create platforms that users rely on and return to consistently.
The Business Case for Local AI
- One of the biggest advantages of Local AI is reducing dependence on cloud providers, which directly impacts operational costs and performance.
- Local AI minimizes latency by processing data on-device rather than routing requests through cloud servers.
- Local AI’s versatility makes it a powerful tool across various sectors including healthcare, finance, and consumer technology.
