In addition, many errors can be resolved at compile time and no longer occur dynamically at application runtime, as was the case in JavaScript.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Services have to inform each other about important business events, such as price changes or order events, in microservice architectures. These integration events are transmitted using methods such as message queues or HTTP POST requests. Guaranteeing consistency is critical to ensuring that events are only dispatched if the business logic in the sending service is successfully completed. The ‘event store’, which was inspired by Vaughn Vernon, does just that. In my blog post, I describe an implementation scenario involving Java using Spring and Spring Data JPA, where Spring application events play a different role than integration events.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Many companies develop their products based solely on their own assumptions about the target groups. Ultimately, however, these fail because they offer no real benefits to their users. Focusing on the topic of digital health, I will explain how product discovery can be used to develop safe and successful applications that both offer people real added value and also meet the regulatory requirements in this blog post.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Before the introduction of computers, companies used account books, inventory lists and intuition to record key figures. The data warehouse for static reports emerged at the end of the 1980s. Digitalisation brought new challenges. Big data overwhelmed traditional data warehouses, which is why companies introduced data lakes, which also had an impact on the architecture and concepts of analytics systems. The first part of this blog post is about their development, the reasons for their emergence and the problems they solved.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[In this blog post, I will explain the link between municipal waste, critical infrastructures and the role of digitalisation. Municipal waste disposal is classified as critical infrastructure, so many waste disposal firms and waste treatment facility operators are required to make investments to guarantee they are able to deliver the service they supply from 2024. This means that provisions must be made to ensure that waste is always disposed of and recycled or reused – which also includes the generation of energy through waste incineration – even in exceptional situations. This opens up new opportunities for us as an IT service provider to be part of projects and drive digitalisation forward.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Overloading can occur in the electricity grid if the feed-in power from renewable energies is higher than the forecasted amount.

So far, the redispatch measures only cover large plants, which means they do not cover heat pumps, electric cars and home battery storage. However, there is also the potential to use them for the benefit of the grid, but this requires a new process: Redispatch 3.0.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Electricity is available anytime we need it. That has been a given for decades, and it is something that we rarely if ever think about. As the power grid has grown in complexity because of the energy transition and the increased flexibility in generation and consumption that has come with this, grid operators will now be given the opportunity to influence the consumption of controllable consumption devices. We will be presenting the newly amended Section 14a of the EnWG [Energiewirtschaftsgesetz – German Energy Industry Act] that is set to enter into force on 1 January 2023 in our blog post.]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[Keeping insurance customers in mind with Customer 360°]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[Who in the insurance industry hasn’t lost time trying to look up customer policies? A customer calls, provides their policy number and wants information about their policy. The person they’ve called searches for the policy in the system, for instance in a partner application, and can’t find it. This forces them to perform a time-consuming, potentially complicated search using the contract partner’s name. Once they find the policy, they then have to copy and paste the policy number into the inventory system. adesso’s Customer 360° solution makes this process a whole lot simpler. In my blog post, I will explain what this software component can do and what advantages it offers. And by the way, this solution is so flexible and adaptable that it can also be used in other industries.]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[A milestone in the digitalisation of the energy transition? The third gateway is here]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[The smart meter rollout has been causing some ambivalence in the energy sector for many years – a lot of hustle, a lot of work and, at the same time, a lot of standing still. If you believe the words of Arne Schönborn, President of the German Federal Office for Information Security (Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik, BSI), a milestone in the digitalisation of the energy transition has now been reached. In this blog post, we explain what this milestone is and what it means for the smart meter rollout seven years after the publication of the German Act on the Digitalisation of the Energy Transition (Gesetz zur Digitalisierung der Energiewende, GDEW). ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Companies employ staff in different roles, which means they have different areas of responsibility. These employees often possess above-average specialist knowledge in a subject area or special skills. But this knowledge is often – consciously or unconsciously – not shared. This creates an environment in which the conditions do not promote the growth of knowledge and prevent it from being used in a targeted way to advance the company and to offer real added value to (potential) customers. How can a company promote knowledge sharing through a community of practice and benefit (potential) customers and interested parties? I will explain how in this blog post using the example of the community of practice for the topic of company pension schemes.]]></description>

<title><![CDATA[Contribution ceiling is set to be lowered – this also affects company pension schemes]]></title>
<description><![CDATA[Pensions are important for every employee. They have the right to request from their employer that part of their future earnings – up to four per cent of the contribution ceiling for the statutory pension fund – are paid into their company pension scheme through the conversion of earnings into pension contributions (deferred compensation). This is an important measure to protect workers from old-age poverty. But everything has now changed due to COVID-19. To reflect the new reality, the 2022 contribution ceiling is set to be reduced under the draft bill from the German Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs (Bundesministerium für Arbeit und Soziales, BMAS). How and to what extent are company pension schemes affected by this change? What challenges does this pose for companies, employees, insurance companies and pension providers? And how can these be overcome? You can find answers to these questions in the following blog post.]]></description>

If you look at the developments taking place in the insurance market, you will see that it is no longer just about being individually accessible but that it is more a matter of winning the customer (digitally) where they are and where they move around. Hobbies and passions come to the fore and, as a consequence, interfaces to ecosystems. But what makes ecosystems interesting for end customers, insurers and brokers?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The field of artificial intelligence (AI) is arguably the biggest technological driver of the future, but projects often fail due to the complexity of their implementation or a lack of experts. In the first part of this series, we tried to answer the question of how low-code platforms can facilitate AI adoption. In this part, we will now take look at intelligent process automation – a combination of different technologies: artificial Intelligence, low code and robotic process automation (RPA). What are the advantages of using this combination? Using a well-known use case with SAP, we will introduce you to the advantages of intelligent process automation to optimise workflows.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The company pension scheme is promoted by the German Act to Strengthen Occupational Pensions (Betriebsrentenstärkungsgesetz, BRSG) of 2018. Employers are obliged to support their employees in building up a pension by making a contribution towards their deferred compensation. Previously, this contribution was only obligatory for new policies dated 1 January 2019 or later. As of 1 January 2022, employers will be obliged to pay this subsidy for all existing pension scheme policies. What challenges do insurance companies and pension providers have to face? And how can these be overcome? I’ll explain how in this blog post.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The penetration rate of company pension schemes in Germany has decreased once again. Despite all of the recommendations and numerous incentives, such as those provided in the German Act to Strengthen Occupational Pensions (Betriebsrentenstärkungsgesetz, BRSG), it doesn’t look anything is about to buck this trend. How can we make company pension schemes more attractive without increasing the administrative burden on employers, excluding pension providers and reducing transparency into the wide range of company pension scheme options even further? As the title of this blog post suggests, a standard product is the method of choice for increasing the uptake of company pension schemes and thus the level of retirement security for today’s workers.]]></description>

These project frameworks are mainly characterised by greater flexibility, faster responsiveness and a stronger focus on end users. Today, Scrum is often combined with other proven methods, techniques and frameworks – such as Kanban, Design Thinking and BusDevOps. What all these approaches have in common is that the chosen path is reflected on in an iterative process and that adaptation to the desired state often requires creativity on the part of those involved. This blog post explores the question of how successful ideas can be generated while also adhering to the objective of maximising the product.]]></description>
