PeerXP: Betting big on DevOps and automation – The Financial Express
Posted: August 8, 2022 at 12:26 pm
With digital transformation being accelerated by Covid-19, India serves as a large market for automation, since engineering teams need to maintain large distributed systems and automate day-to-day activities in the workflows. Offering DevOps, and processes automation is New Delhi-based PeerXP. For the not-so-tech-savvy, DevOps is a set of practices that combines software development and IT operations, aiming to shorten the systems development lifecycle and provide continuous delivery with high quality software.
The company provides a DevOps platform with a set of tools, with customers taking monthly or annual subscriptions. The startup also makes revenue by providing service engineers. PeerXP has witnessed 5x revenue growth since the onset of the pandemic, with a 35% increase in profits.

We saw a dip in revenues when the pandemic started, as businesses stopped investing in tech temporarily. I had to explain to CTOs what DevOps is and how it could add value to the business. Today, however, its use has become common, says K Manoj Kumar, founder and CEO, PeerXP. The startup, which was seed-funded with money won at hackathons, also has a presence in the US, Europe and the Middle East.
The bootstrapped startup is built on open source. Businesses today are demanding open source-based solutions since they are more scalable and not dependent on one particular vendor. They are also secure, says Kumar. Having worked with government bodies in India, he is optimistic that open source will continue to be in demand, along with proprietary technology. At the collectorate and ministry levels, the policies are stringent for proprietary technology. Since their own systems are built on open source, the policies for partners who use the model are relatively liberal, he says. The startup is now also working on a full stack of proprietary solutions to productise its services.
For businesses and service providers, open source is a good place to start automation and to sell. But in order to create complex AI and ML applications and productise our services to the greatest extent, proprietary technology is the way to go, says Kumar. With enterprises across the world adopting the multicloud model rapidly, the startup is also focusing on demand for hybrid cloud.

Automating ports can put Australia ahead of the pack – WSP USA
Posted: at 12:25 pm
Global supply chains are transforming through digitalisation and automation to become more capable, connected, efficient and insight driven. Tom Crawford-Condie, WSPs Principal Maritime Engineer believes Australia is at the forefront of automated container terminals.
He says, Australian ports such as Brisbane and Sydney were early leaders in the adoption of automated container handling and Melbournes fully automated Victoria International Container Terminal (VICT) is at the cutting edge of automation globally.
Increased demand over the next fifteen years means we need more capacity at our ports. With a renewed focus on automation and ambitious new developments such as Westport and Port of Melbournes Capacity Expansion Program, Australian ports can continue to improve their performance and competitiveness and lead the charge in the future.
Tom has been involved with the ports industry for the last twenty years. Most recently, he was involved with the development of Working Group 208, developing planning guidelines for the automation of container terminals for PIANC, the World Association for Waterborne Transport Infrastructure and presented on these guidelines to PIANC ANZ Northern Chapter. He has also played a key role in planning and designing automated terminals across Australia and overseas.
He explains there are multiple benefits to having automated ports including efficiency, safety, security and reduced operating costs.
You have less people physically working there, which means its a safter and more secure environment.
Equipment is still being run by people but theyre not physically in it, theyre sitting in an office controlling it remotely and often they can be controlling multiple machines at once. For example, Australias hot summers can make the working environment difficult so having people working in air-conditioned offices rather than driving machinery around means less risk of heat related injury.
There are also operational cost savings attributed to having less people required to operate the terminal. And, there are also sustainability benefits such as having a fully electrified terminal that reduces emissions and with further opportunity to draw on renewable energy sources, making them Future ReadyTM for a net-zero economy.
As shown in Figure 1, developing an automated terminal is very different to a traditional one, with the major difference being the length of time needed to design and commission it.
Its about looping people in much earlier in the planning and design phases, Tom says. You need all systems operations, power, information technology, security etc. to be integrated together and it has to be done at the beginning.
You think about procurement strategy, the financials, the commercial basis and what the split of responsibility will be between the port authority and the operator much earlier than with a conventionally operated container terminal design.
There is a strategic function to a fully automated terminal, and keeping the continuity of knowledge throughout is important.
By engaging WSP early in the process, we can come provide the expertise and leverage decades of experience to assist with setting up this plan and the strategy. Our ongoing support through all the project life stages can help to maintain the necessary continuity of decision making and knowledge transfer.
Figure 1 Phases and typical timeline for development of container terminals with different levels of automation
Source: WSP, based on guidance in PIANC Working Group 208 Planning for Automation of Container Terminals
Automated terminals can also be more expensive to build depending on the location and client needs, and the benefits take time to accumulate. Sam Harris, WSPs Technical Executive Maritime, says multiple different approaches and technologies are available to an organisation planning to develop an automated container terminal.
Visual planning is important to be able to look at the different options and layouts for the terminal and to make sure it meets current and future needs.
Using WSPs Port Rail Intermodal Modelling Environment (PRIME), we can do advanced modelling quickly and effortlessly to see the level of performance that will be achieved by different configurations and automation as well as access information about costs, emissions, equipment and workforce.
We can also use it to establish the required start and completion date of each phase and score performance measures to match the clients needs. As automated terminals require bigger lead times to plan and build, this is critical in establishing a strong business case.
Maritime transport underpins Australias international trade and like all industries is experiencing rapid advances in technological innovations.
There are significant advantages of automating terminals including safety, productivity, consistency, efficiency, sustainability, competitive advantage.
However, the decision to automate should be based on a robust business case with planning and expertise.
Ultimately, successful integration is the critical factor as automation requires precision. Organisations need to be ready to operate automated facilities as theyre not a simple plug and play solution, Tom concludes.

AECOM to partner with MnDOT and the City of White Bear Lake on automated shuttle pilot – Robotics and Automation News
Posted: at 12:25 pm
AECOM, an infrastructure consulting firm, is partnering with the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) and White Bear Lake on the launch of an automated shuttle pilot within the city.
The shuttle, which has been named Bear Tracks, will run for one year on a 1.5-mile route and be free to use, connecting area residents to several community facilities and businesses.
The project will incorporate key elements of MnDOTs Connected and Automated Vehicle (CAV) Strategic Plan, including enhanced mobility for persons with disabilities, better travel options for elderly communities, and more public awareness of automated vehicle technologies.
Daryl Taavola, vice president with AECOMs US West transportation business, says: Were incredibly proud to partner with MnDOT and White Bear Lake to launch this groundbreaking project, which not only advances the operation of emerging automation technologies in variable weather conditions but uniquely integrates transit accessibility and equity as a main focus.
As automated vehicles (AV) play a larger role in supporting improved mobility, were honored to partner with our clients to help them navigate this evolution and achieve their goals.
This pilot will serve as a tangible example that helps the public understand and interact with the benefits of these vehicles while providing the community with a free, safe, and sustainable transportation option.
AECOM will serve as Bear Tracks prime contractor and AV technology expert, providing program management, planning services, AV technology design, procurement support, program evaluation, and technical services.
A unique aspect of the project is an academic partnership to offer students firsthand experience with CAVs and aid in workforce development. Lessons learned during the pilot will assist MnDOT in advancing and replicating AV paratransit systems throughout the state.
The concept will also leverage concurrent efforts underway by the AECOM-led Automated Bus Consortium involving a larger coordinated national effort to procure and test full-size, full-speed AV buses.
MnDOT Commissioner Nancy Daubenberger, says: We at MnDOT value opportunities to collaborate with local communities and companies such as AECOM to strengthen partnerships.
The Bear Tracks autonomous shuttle provides a safe transportation option for White Bear Lake community members, particularly some of our more vulnerable residents. The demonstration project also provides invaluable information that can move Minnesota forward in its goal of safe, equitable transportation for all in our state.
The Bear Tracks pilot will employ a Navya Autonom Shuttle, a highly automated, 11 passenger, low-speed shuttle that is 100-percent electric and includes a mobility ramp and Americans with Disabilities Act compliance features.
The shuttle will have a safety driver, who will act as an onboard attendant, and includes a computer, GPS technology, and multiple sensors to operate within the predetermined route.
Newtrax will serve as the shuttle operations manager, leveraging its extensive experience providing daily transportation services for adults with disabilities in the area.
Additional participating key partners include Ramsey County, University of Minnesota, White Bear Lake Area Schools, Minnesota State Transportation Center of Excellence, White Bear Area Chamber of Commerce, and the local YMCA.
Lindy Crawford, White Bear Lake City manager, says: White Bear Lake is proud to partner with MnDOT, AECOM, Newtrax and the many other project partners to ensure that community needs in cities like White Bear Lake are being considered as automated vehicle technology is developed and incorporated into long term transportation planning.
In addition to being the host community for the project, we look forward to the opportunity to expose local students to jobs of the future and to work with the project partners as the lead partner for public engagement.
We look forward to members of our community, and the Twin Cities region as a whole, having firsthand experience with this technology in White Bear Lake.

Labor shortages challenge supply chains to automate while retaining employees and their trust – Supply Chain Dive
Posted: at 12:25 pm
Among the business topics that have dominated the press over the past two years, supply chain difficulties and labor shortages have certainly been at the top. But the two are not mutually exclusive.
Organizations across all industries are having a hard time finding employees to keep their supply chains operating as efficiently and smoothly as possible; goals that have been made more difficult due to the COVID-19 lockdown hangover, continuing lockdowns in China and the war in Ukraine, among other challenges.
This labor deficiency has been building for some time since even before the pandemic and it is not expected to moderate anytime soon. In a recent survey that Protiviti conducted with the Oxford Global Centre on Healthcare and Urbanization at Kellogg College, in which we queried global executives about the future of work, 83% said that retention and turnover would remain a top concern over the next decade.
Consequently, companies are increasingly considering adopting automation to fill in the gaps to improve global supply chain operations. It should not be surprising, therefore, that 85% of global executives in the Protiviti-Oxford survey said that artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies would radically transform their businesses over the next 10 years.
Over the past decade, the industry has become well acquainted with the potential benefits derived from implementing automation technologies, including greater efficiency, reduced costs and greater profits, and enhanced safety, to name a few. But many organizations have been reluctant to pursue the solutions because of widely held perceptions that the technologies would replace workers. To take the automation route would erode employee trust, the thinking went.
But in many cases, the pandemic lockdowns and restrictions forced organizations to adopt automation to keep producing and shipping goods to customers. Now that the genie is out of the bottle, more firms are beginning to investigate and implement technology solutions, particularly manufacturers, many of whom are considering returning production from foreign shores to the U.S. or locations nearby.
For companies taking actions toward automation and for those still hesitant to broach the subject here are three considerations to keep in mind during the journey.
While employees may bristle at automation initially, operators of machinery who perform rote and low-skill tasks often end up embracing technology because it allows them to learn new skills. If an organization gives someone the ability to work with virtual reality tools on the plant floor, or the capacity to program machines versus simply turning knobs to operate the machines, for example, that person is likely going to have a greater sense of satisfaction and responsibility.
When determining where to implement automation, organizations frequently focus on where technology can maximize supply chain efficiency, cost savings and labor availability in any particular facility. Alternatively, they may want to use automation to plug talent gaps.
Adopting automation can help onshoring or nearshoring efforts, which are being pursued to mitigate the risk of supply chain disruptions occurring on the other side of the world or during a 60-day boat ride while remaining cost-competitive with other markets. Companies undertaking this strategy may want to target processes integral to the production and distribution of their most premium merchandise or those that are the most challenging from the perspective of hands-on labor.
Companies recognize that employee retention is just as important as recruiting and, in fact, that it is easier to keep workers than hire new ones. That puts the onus on organizations adopting automation to implement change management programs and other initiatives that feature robust communication channels with employees to mitigate the risk of disengagement and attrition.
The central message that organizations must convey is that automation does not equate to workforce reduction; rather, the goal is to adopt new technologies that can help supply chains flow during good times and bad times alike. To avoid distrust, companies must make clear their intent to upskill employees and to move them into more meaningful roles.
This approach can help convince people to stay versus looking for greener grass. Additionally, initiating listening strategies, encouraging employees to share job security concerns or even the desire to change employers, and emphasizing a culture that values its workers can help create loyalty, especially in small rural areas that lack the population to support emerging manufacturing hubs. In many cases, first-line managers who tend to have strong relationships with people on the floor can play a pivotal role in these efforts.
Over the past three decades, organizations developed supply chains to be efficient and cost-effective, putting little emphasis on resiliency or flexibility. But business interruptions over the past two years have forced organizations to adjust their focus. Rather than viewing supply chains as cost centers, executives are now beginning to apply a revenue assurance model to the operations.
This approach includes looking at previously ignored costs associated with business continuity management, logistics changes, delays, unhappy customers and other risks. The model also tabulates the value that can be generated by a redesigned and more resilient supply chain that incorporates automation. Companies interested in bringing back production to the U.S., for example, may be looking at higher wage costs, but with automation, employees here will not be doing the same low-skill tasks being performed in other markets. Therefore, the cost discussion shifts from one focused solely on labor to one that considers total costs and risks.
Labor shortages are plaguing all industries, but along with two years of unprecedented economic disruptions, they are hitting supply chains particularly hard. Automation can help organizations solve some of the challenges associated with tight labor markets. But companies that choose that route and that want to maximize their chances for successful results need to reassure existing employees that they will be the recipients of more meaningful work and not pink slips, incorporate the technology in a manner that optimizes the supply chain, and take an expanded view of supply chains to better assess cost, risk and value while enhancing flexibility and resiliency.

New automated cocktail bars ‘serve drinks in seconds’ at Austin’s Circuit of The Americas – CultureMap Austin
Posted: at 12:25 pm
There will always be a time and a place for cute bartenders, but the Circuit of The Americas is no longer it. The racing venue is speeding things up with TendedBar, an automated cocktail maker with facial recognition technology. It may not be as flattering as being recognized at your favorite local haunt, but itll keep the lines moving.
TendedBar debuted at COTA in June of 2022 at a Camp Nowhere concert, and served drinks at three more after that. Things went great for these intrepid mini bars, and theyll be back as a partner for major upcoming events including Wiz Khalifa with Logic, ODESZA, and the Formula 1 United States Grand Prix in October.
The robot bartenders mission is to serve drinks in seconds, which they seem to achieve in demo videos. The facial recognition capability means customers dont have to dig for credit cards or shout last names, and the quick mixing goes, predictably, much faster than a person holding several tools.
Increasing speed, consistency, and quality of beverage service is so important to delivering world-class fan experiences because no other menu category accounts for more transactions at large events, said Sandeep Satish, managing director of hospitality group Levys DBK Studio, which developed the machine. There is so much opportunity to continue expanding and enhancing beverage service.
The machines very similar to touch screen Coca-Cola Freestyle machines that felt miraculous in 2009 allow a user to select each part of the drink, resulting in more than 100 possible cocktails. It starts with a brand or a well-known cocktail recipe, then allows additions such as tonic water, lemonade, and ice, plus an additional splash if the user chooses one.
Another demo shows four steps after getting ice and choosing the ingredients: selecting single or double, strength (adding more or less mixer to the same amount of alcohol), an option to tip a percentage toward a charity, and a button to pour.
Although the process eliminates human error and inefficiency on the bartending side, flabbergasted fans without the social pressure of someone trying to work quickly may take a little extra time exploring their options. And visiting fans suspicious of facial recognition technology may not like that the one-time registration includes storing a selfie and government ID in perpetuity.
Austin has always been on the forefront of technology and hospitality, said TendedBar co-founder Justin Honeysuckle. With our proven track record at sporting events and concerts, the Circuit of The Americas and the Germania Insurance Amphitheater will prove to be a perfect venue for the technology, automation, safety, and quality that TendedBar provides.
Guests are encouraged to pre-register with TendedBar to save time at the event. Registry and more information about the machines are available at tendedbar.com/registration.

Confession in Zoe Campos homicide to be admitted at trial – LubbockOnline.com
Posted: at 12:24 pm
A 29-year-old man's confession to police that he killed and buried 18-year-old Zoe Campos seven years ago will be used against him at trial, a Lubbock judge ruled on Friday.
District Judge Douglas Freitag issued an order denying Carlos Rodriquez's request to throw out his 2018 confession to Lubbock homicide detectives.
Carlos Rodriquez is charged with murder in Campos' November 2013, death. The charge carried a punishment of five years to life in prison.
The order came after a hearing Thursday in the 140th District Court on Rodriguez's motion to suppress his confession.
A trial is tentatively set for Aug. 15 and his defense attorneys hoped to throw out that key piece of evidence, saying detectives used tactics that pressured their client into involuntarily confessing to killing Campos and helping authorities find her remains, which were buried at a home in south Lubbock where Rodriquez used to live.
They also argued that police used an informant at the jail to elicit incriminating information from Rodriquez, violating his fourth amendment right.
Campos was initially reported missing on Nov. 19, 2013. Five years later, Lubbock homicide detectives found her remains buried in the backyard of a home in the 1900 block of 70th Street, which police visited multiple times over the years during their search for Campos.
About a week after her disappearance, police found her vehicle, a 1997 silver Lincoln Town Ca,r abandoned at an apartment complex in the 5500 block of Utica Avenue. Police found her jacket and phone charger in the trunk of the vehicle.
Meanwhile, Rodriquez was a person of interest in the case as investigators learned he may have been the last person to see Campos alive.
During a Nov. 19, 2018 interview with Lubbock police, police say Rodriquez admitted to killing Campos. He said he strangled Campos to death then buried her body in the backyard of his home at the time. He later led detectives to the spot where her remains were found.
On July 12, Rodriquez's defense attorney filed a motion to suppress his confession, saying detectives ignored his request for an attorney in prior interviews, unfairly pressuring him to ultimately confess to killing Campos.
By December 2017, the case had been handed to a third detective, David Schreiber, who wanted to speak with Rodriquez about Campo's disappearance.
Rodriquez was being held at the Lubbock County Detention Center on an unrelated count of stalking when Schreiber and Lubbock police Sgt. Brandon Price spoke with him on Dec. 5, 2017.
The detectives brought Rodriquez from the jail to police headquarters for an interview that spanned more than two hours. The detectives told Rodriquez that they knew Campos was dead and that she was killed at his previous residence. However, at the time, police had no evidence to corroborate that.
They also told Rodriquez his DNA was found inside Campo's jacket.
However, none of the detectives asked Rodriquez directly about his involvement. Instead, they pressured him into confessing, saying they believed his criminal behavior was increasing because he was haunted by his role in Campos' death. They told him confessing to what he did would end the cycle that brought him in and out of jail.
Rodriquez didn't confess. Instead, he told detectives that "every time I try to talk about anything that happened that night ... I always want to like ... talk to an attorney about it so I know where I am at legally. I need to know if it is intentional or whatever ... It's not easy talking without knowing what is going to happen."
Rodriquez's attorney Jeff Nicholson said his client's statement was an obvious request for an attorney. Instead, the detectives shifted their questions to another topic.
It wasn't until Rodriquez verbally stated he wanted an attorney that the detectives ended the interview.
Schreiber and Price disagreed.
The detectives told the court during Thursday's hearing that they met with Rodriquez to set a tone by letting him believe they had more information about his involvement with Campos' disappearance than they had at the time.
They said Rodriquez didn't expressly request for an attorney when he said he wanted legal advice and kept speaking.
Price told the court that he didn't believe Rodriquez was specifically asking for an attorney when he said he wanted legal advice. He said he's seen suspects seek legal advice from family members.
"He could be wanting to call his uncle," Price said. "Sometimes they talk to their mothers ... and their mothers say, 'I think you should tell the truth.'"
Detectives wouldn't speak with Rodriquez until 11 months later. Meanwhile, a confidential witness being held at the jail called law enforcement in July 2018 saying he had information that Rodriquez killed and buried Campos but was adamant that he would only give it in exchange for a favorable deal on his own case.
Records showed the informant relented and provided the information without a deal.
Nicholson argued that records that were available to him showed the informant's change of heart was suspicious because a recording of the interview indicated the informant and Price got into a heated argument about the offer.
Moreover, the informant didn't become an official confidential informant, which would conceal his identity in court records, until the month his client made his confession.
Nicholson said the scenario reeked of a secret deal being struck for the informant to speak with his client as an agent of law enforcement.
Prosecutor Barron Slack told the court that the evidence showed the informant acted on his own, saying he already had the information from Rodriquez before he contacted law enforcement.
Slack said the Lubbock County District Attorney's office never approved a deal with the informant, nor was there any evidence that the police did either. He said the record showed detectives made it clear to the informant that he was not working for law enforcement.
In November 2018, Lubbock police had enough information to begin digging in the backyard of Rodriquez's former home to search for Campos' remains.
At some point, police found what they initially believed to be a human bone. Schreiber said he met Rodriquez a second time to confront him with the evidence. The interview ended quickly when Rodriquez asked for an attorney.
The bone was later identified as an animal bone, Schreiber said.
However, a week later, Rodriquez contacted jail officials saying he wanted to speak with Schreiber and confess to killing and burying Campos.
Slack played a portion of that third interview at the hearing. Rodriquez could be heard saying that he and Campos were at his home smoking synthetic marijuana and "freaked out on her" and started hitting her.
He said she was about to call the police when he strangled her and she passed out.
"I think she was already dead," he could be heard saying.
He later led police to the spot where Campos' remains were found.
Nicholson argued that his client's confession was a culmination of the detectives' unfair tactics that began in the interview 11 months prior when they ignored his client's initial request for an attorney.
"It's a snowball effect," he said. "He gets more nervous and nervous... Once a person is denied counsel they sit around for 11 months, they get desperate and they sit around doing something foolish."
He said detectives knew that his client was requesting an attorney when he said he wanted legal advice.
"He just didn't say the right word," Nicholson said. "There's no law that he has to say the word 'attorney.'"
Slack argued that the record showed Rodriquez knew how to terminate that December interview because it ended when the defendant expressly asked for an attorney.
He said the detectives also weren't required to bring a lawyer to consult with Rodriquez.
The motion to suppress didn't address the July 2019 letter Rodriquez reportedly wrote to local media outlets in which he admits to Campos' killing, saying he acted while he was high on synthetic marijuana.
In the letter, Rodriquez said he carried the guilt and shame of Zoes killing for years. He apologized to Campos family and the community.
He said he believed the jail inmate to whom he confided betrayed him to the police. However, he said he is not mad at the inmate.
He did me a huge favor, he wrote.
Rodriquez wrote in detail the moment the drugs took over his senses, making him believe Campos had turned into a demon.
Though he admitted to killing Campos, he wrote that he was not a murderer and described his actions that night as reckless, which is a culpable mental state in manslaughter charges. Manslaughter is a second-degree felony that carries a punishment of two to 20 years in prison.
Im not asking for a dismissal, he wrote. I just want a fair judgement and not to be labeled as a murderer, but as a 20-year-old kid who made a mistake because of K-2 playing a major factor.
However, voluntary intoxication is not a defense to a crime, though it may be used to mitigate punishment after a defendant is found guilty.
