Qualcomm’s upgradable new Snapdragon X65 modem promises to bring 10gbs speeds to 5G phones as early as this year. Next-gen 5G phones with 10 gigabit per second speeds, all-day battery life, and smart AI-optimized mmWave antennas are coming — and quickly. By delivering not only an upgradeable 10gbs 5G modem but complete RF/RFFE solutions optimized to support global sub-6GHz and mmWave bands, Qualcomm manages yet again to give major OEMs a compelling reason to build their premium and flagship 5G devices around Snapdragon modem-RF systems.

Accelerating cloud adoption for BSS is essential for communication service providers (CSPs) to attain and maintain profitable services. CSPs can ill-afford to lose their influence across digital value chains and their top priority investments in the 5G-IoT ecosystem. Through cloud, CSPs deliver the virtualized, on-demand service delivery platform to ensure the creation of new, profitable services and sustaining innovation through collaboration with ecosystem partners and developers.
In order for CSPs to successfully execute their BSS journey to cloud, regardless of their progress to date, CSPs need to give top consideration to cloud and its role in adapting BSS to COVID-19 exigencies and the post pandemic reality as the world shifts to new business models enabled by 5G and IoT.
Could Microsoft Viva’s plan to humanize the workplace be the key to boosting employee productivity, creativity, and retention? Seeing technology now being used to re-humanize the workplace, humanize workflows, and give people rather than systems more agency and initiative, seems to Futurum’s Olivier Blanchard to be a very positive and welcome change in the enterprise. Microsoft’s new Viva employee experience platform certainly appears to be aiming to deliver on that vision.
In this new episode of the Futurum Tech Webcast, analysts Shelly Kramer and Daniel Newman take a look at Microsoft Viva, a newly launched Employee Experience Platform. Microsoft Viva is comprised of four basic components (today anyway), designed to facilitate connection, learning, topics/discovery, and insights, all designed to heighten and improve the employee experience, facilitate improved knowledge sharing, communication within the organization, teams, and groups, deliver insights designed to help employees and leaders, and provide learning management solutions that help facilitate creating a culture of continuous learning.
Futurum’s Ron Westfall walks us through the Oracle Database 21c debut, which further differentiates the company’s converged database proposition, especially in key emerging technology areas such as Immutable Blockchain Tables and AutoML for In-Database ML. The new offering strengthens Oracle’s ability to bolster developer productivity in cultivating new applications and curating applications to fulfill top-priority business objectives.
By including 200+ innovations across seven key technology areas in the new release, Ron is bullish on Oracle and sees this move as putting its major database rivals, such as IBM, SAP, Amazon, and Microsoft/Azure on the sales and marketing defensive in the near-term. He sees Oracle’s Database 21c sales and marketing zigging in marked contrast to the zagging of recent competitor marketing that continues to focus on requisite, somewhat bland feature sets such as cloud-based data management, putting Oracle in the driver’s seat to drive industry-wide converged database sales and marketing conversations at the onset of 2021.
In this interview as part of our Futurum Tech Webcast – Interview Series, host Shelly Kramer sat down with Josh Teitelman, VP of Customer Experience at Allstacks and John Steinmetz, CTO of Convo Communications, for a conversation about building a high performing engineering team, and what the secret sauce is that makes that goal a reality.
