Is Providing an External Streaming API Enough?
#ICYDK: Is providing an external streaming API enough of an application for most API providers? Each API we add to the Streamdata.io API Gallery, we create an account, add an application, and obtain keys that allow us to make API calls. We essentially become a consumer of each API we profile and add to the gallery. However, our goal isn’t to integrate a specific application or system with each API, we want to empower other application and system developers to do that. We’ve long seen our streaming service as something that each API provider should deliver on top of their API, but we are increasingly seeing that maybe it is an application that other API consumers can also put to work without the API provider always being an active part of the conversation.
The question is, is providing an external streaming API enough of an application to satisfy the terms of service for each API provider? Is augmenting an existing API with streaming, and event-driven capabilities seen as enough of an enhancement that API providers will support what we deliver? Or will they feel we are in violation of their terms of service and think its something they should be delivering on their own? It is a line we take seriously, and we’d prefer that API providers use our SaaS, or our on-premise to deliver our services to their customers. However, if we can’t get their attention, we feel it will be valid to act like we are just another application in their ecosystem, bringing value to the community. https://goo.gl/vvhMWz #DataIntegration #ML
Virtual Reality Learning Analytics With xAPI
#ICYMI: Virtual reality training is an easily identified answer when it comes to situations where in-person training is too dangerous, too costly, or the environment is difficult to replicate — things like factories, fire safety, or emergency management. But there are many other situations where virtual reality learning has strong advantages:
* When situational awareness is critical
* When mistakes would be costly and wasteful
* When personal interactions are the key to positive outcomes
By incorporating VR into training programs in creative ways in areas like onboarding, retention, soft skill development, process improvement, and recruiting, organizations have seen dramatic improvements in the overall experience for learners, employees, and leads alike. https://goo.gl/KLp87Z #DataIntegration #ML
