SubMe, is a new VTU platform for recharging your mobile phone with either data, or airtime. One interesting thing about SubMe is that it sells at cheaper prices - as low as N 150 for a GB in 9mobile. We basically support all the 4 major SIMS in Nigeria - Glo, MTN, Airtel and 9mobile. It is an alx_africa project initiative inspired by the increasing demands for mobile data following the outburst of the technology and software industry. Staying offline has always been like taking a tour about a jungle where you miss the aura of home-baked information. SubMe project initiative is set address issues as such - such that even while in the jungle, you can tender your data supply with no single doubt. It was a bit challenging at first, seeing that we had to couple tons of technology stacks to build it. Among many procedures were user management and authentication, security, safe transactions, storage, intuitiveness, etc. The screen snap below reveals the landing page on a mobile phone. The technology breakdown is provided for below: We used Typescript as our main language, Nextjs - our frontend framework for SSR, SEO, and more... Supabase - our BaaS Tailwindcss - for design and styling Jest - for proper testing, etc... The site is built to be fast, with top Nextjs best practices, and react best practices. As mentioned earlier, the project completion did not come on a golden plate, it took us turns to figure out what we really wanted and how we finally came about it - thanks to the relentless spirits of my team members. Among the many challenges we faced were: Third party packages incompatibility, API version incompatibility, Server errors, Mobile responsiveness, etc. I must comment that the project was both an exciting and challenging one. We learnt alot during the course of the project. We encountered so many bugs, but we resolved them happily despite the short amount of time given - 2 weeks! Finally, and as always, it has always been an inspiration for me to build projects to actually solve problems. Ones that respond to society's calls and meets them accordingly. I'm still that enthusiastic Software Engineer, who creates solution-based quality software. A big shout out to alx_africa for the opportunity to be a part of this journey. ~ Mathias

Streamlining Healthcare with Local Area Networks (LANs): My Experience at FMC, Lagos. As I stepped into the Federal Medical Center (#FMC) in Ebute Metta, Lagos today, I was impressed by the seamless integration of #technology into their #healthcare system. The efficient use of a Local Area Network (#LAN) to digitize patient care and communication among healthcare professionals caught my attention. A LAN is a computer #network that spans a small geographical area, typically within a building or campus. In the case of FMC, their LAN connected various departments and enabled secure communication between healthcare professionals. This setup allowed for: ✅ Centralized patient management: Each patient was assigned a unique hospital number, making it easy to access and update their medical records. ✅ Digital prescriptions: Doctors could write and send prescriptions electronically, reducing errors and wait times. ✅ Efficient pharmacy management: Pharmacists could access patient information and prescriptions in real-time, streamlining the dispensing process. Despite the efficiency of the LAN, I experienced extended waiting times 😓, which reminded me of my university days studying Queuing Theory. In an ideal scenario, the service rate would be greater than or equal to the arrival rate, minimizing waiting times. However, this was not the case, highlighting the need for process improvements. From a technical standpoint, the LAN at FMC demonstrated a well-planned and executed network infrastructure. Some notable aspects included: ✅ Private IP addresses: Devices were assigned private #IP addresses e.g., 10.21.414.12 (Oh yes, I peeped 😁), ensuring secure communication within the network. ✅ Server hosting: I was already imagining a "Server room" like the one I do see in movies 😃. I didn't get the chance to see it, but I am sure the hospital management system was hosted on a local server, allowing for centralized management and control. My experience showcased the potential of LANs in healthcare settings, improving efficiency and quality of care. However, it also highlighted the importance of addressing queuing issues. By applying Queuing Theory principles and investing in process improvements, healthcare facilities can reduce waiting times and enhance patient satisfaction. 📷 Jordan Harrison on #Unsplash

On Thursday, I had an epic YouTube session with Someleze Diko where we dived into the world of Containers. Here's a taste of what you'll learn from the session: Lesson #1: Containers are a way to package and deploy applications. They include everything an application needs to run, including the code, libraries, and dependencies. Lesson #2: Microservices are small, independent pieces of code that can be deployed and scaled independently. Lesson #3: Docker is a tool for building, deploying, and running containers. The speakers also mentioned a few resources that viewers can use to learn more about .NET and containers, including a Cloud Skills Challenge. But that's not all... In the session, we showed you how to build and deploy your first microservice with .NET. Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/dr3Uq_4B Justin Yoo Jayme Singleton Matthew Soucoup

I had stepped out of my comfort zone to attend an intensive training at Redemption City, Mowe Ogun State on AWS_Cloud Computing. It's was mind blowing interactive sessions and an eye opener on various ways AWS could be of instrumental to companies especially the start up company (this not to say, larger companies could benefits also, everyone would enjoy the benefits). I was able to add to my skills and knowledge on various ways on how to use AWS, indeed AWS is a life saver. With AWS, an organization could -Set their servers at a goal using EC2 -Scale up at any points to avoid to avoid too traffic on server using load balancer -Managed their networking -Enable the organization to exploit other regions at any point in time by making their services available in that region -One of the advantages of AWS that stood out for me is that, the service is pay as you go, it's not capital intensive, and everyone department can collaborate on the platform effectively, you can virtually do anything related to technology on the platform.

Adaptive RAG Part 2 This is the second part of the workshop delivered at the Lagos Blockchain Week on the BionicBox as a tool for Adaptive RAG AI using a very simple hypothetical use case. Use Case You've just been employed by a tech company called GISTech (a provider of Geographic Information System). But just before you joined, GISTech received a tender package (RFP) form Mercy Corps to bid on a mega project in Gombe State. The Challenge You resume on a Friday and the MD says you need to essentially go through the entire 41 pages of a dense tender document and then write a comprehensive tender bid proposal in line with all the requirements in the tender - and you have only 48 hours to do so because the tender will be closed by Monday and GISTech will need to turn in the proposal before closure. How can you use Adaptive RAG AI (in particular the BionicBox) to tackle this task as failure to meet up with this rather short deadline will seriously affect your confirmation. All materials used were obtained from the public Internet and solely intended for educational consumption. Take a listen. NB: Our BionicBox technology is built and supported exclusively on Apple server infrastructure and ecosystem in particular the M2 Ultra Studio. With it's high computational power, unified memory architecture (due to it's system-on-chip technology), is optimized for enterprise AI inferencing. It is also scalable, secure and highly cost efficient for the Nigerian and African market.
