Supply chain management
The document discusses supply chain management. It defines supply chain management as the integration of business processes from original suppliers to end users to add value for customers. A supply chain is a network of facilities that procures materials, transforms them into products, and distributes the products to customers. The essential features of supply chain management include integrated behavior across stakeholders, mutually sharing information and risks/rewards, cooperation, focusing on serving customers, integrating processes, and building long-term relationships. The objectives, components, factors influencing, and functions of supply chain management at the strategic, tactical, and operational levels are described.
Supply Chain Risk
The document discusses supply chain risk. It defines supply chain risk and identifies various types of risks including supply risks, demand risks, and environmental risks. It also discusses strategies for managing supply chain risk such as avoidance, postponement, hedging, control, and risk transfer. Effective supply chain risk management involves understanding risk sources and drivers, identifying critical parts of the supply chain, establishing contingency plans, and working collaboratively with suppliers and customers.
Basics of Supply Chain Managment
The document discusses supply chain management (SCM). It defines SCM as the management of relationships between suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses, distribution centers, and customers to deliver value to customers at a low cost. The goal of SCM is to optimize efficiency through integrating these entities. The document also describes how SCM has evolved from a "push" model driven by forecasts to a "pull" model driven by actual customer demand.
Supply Chain Management
A supply chain is the network of organizations involved in producing and delivering a product, from raw materials to the end customer. It includes upstream suppliers, internal production and packaging, and downstream distribution centers and retailers. Effective supply chain management coordinates activities across this network to optimize material, information and financial flows.

Modern software-service models take advantage of the great benefits in having the same team both build the software as well as operate it in production -- "You Build It; You Run It" is the Amazon mantra. What does this mean in practice?
Organizationally, it means small teams with well-defined areas of responsibility, directly aligned with the business. The teams are cross-functional, meaning that each team has all the skill sets it requires to do its job, while at the same time relying on other teams for supporting services, tools, and libraries.
Process-wise, it means doubling down on practices like test-driven development and continuous delivery. Using continuous delivery practices, high-performing teams can and do release their applications and services multiple times a day. This enables them to iterate rapidly, experiment courageously, and fail more quickly.
Culturally, it means end-to-end ownership. Each team owns its software end-to-end, from design to development to deployment to retirement. The same engineers who are responsible for the features are responsible for quality, performance, operations, and maintenance. This ownership puts incentives in the right place to encourage building maintainable, observable, and operable systems from the start.
All these techniques and approaches are available to everyone, and practical examples in this talk will help other organizations on their journey.
Holistic Product Development
In the world of agile, there is theory and then there is practice. We like to talk about self-organizing teams, asynchronous execution, BDD, TDD, and emergent architecture. We also talk about cross-functional teams: how analysts, testers, architects, technical writers, and UX designers belong on the same team, right next to programmers. It all sounds nice in theory, but how does this work in reality? What do these people actually do? How do they interact? What does it look like? Is there really a pragmatic way to make this work?
In this simulation, a cross-functional team will actually build a piece of software. Every specialist will have a hand in the process. Every specialist will also act as a generalist. Everyone will add value. And as a team, we’ll get something DONE.
This is your opportunity to see agile development in practice, and to bridge the gap between what agilists say and what teams do. And it’s not as new or as difficult as you think – affinity between testers, BA’s, coders, and other team members has really been at the root of effective development practices all along. Let’s just finally acknowledge that it works, demonstrate its capabilities, and encourage it going forward.
This IS agile development.

Researchers found that higher temperatures and changing precipitation patterns due to climate change will significantly reduce wheat yields across major wheat-producing regions by the end of the century. Reductions in wheat production are projected to range from 6-27% depending on future greenhouse gas emissions and efforts to adapt farming techniques to new climate conditions.
The Future of WordPress And WooCommerce
This document discusses the past, present, and future of WordPress and WooCommerce. It notes that WordPress now powers 34.6% of websites and is the most popular content management system. WooCommerce, which was acquired by Automattic in 2015, is now used by over 76 million downloads to power ecommerce sites.

2) The presentation discusses how to get involved with WordPress by creating themes and plugins, and participating in the large WordPress community through forums, contributing code, and attending events.

Choosing a WordPress Theme
WordPress themes present the layout and design of a WordPress site. While free themes are available, premium themes generally offer higher quality, more customization options, and dedicated support. It is important to avoid testing premium themes from untrusted piracy sites due to legal and security risks, and instead purchase themes only from official marketplaces and directories. When choosing a theme, considerations include design, code quality, standards compliance, and compatibility with plugins.
Sass in 5
Sass is a CSS extension language created in 2007 that adds powerful features like variables, nested rules, mixins, selector inheritance, and functions. It has two syntax options - Sass syntax and SassCSS syntax. Sass files end in .scss and are compiled into normal .css files. Sass provides many useful functions for working with colors, lists, and strings, and also allows for custom functions to be written in Ruby. Sass can be run from the command line or with a GUI like Compass.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.
