Zara is a clothing retailer that uses modern technology in its marketing research and supply chain to quickly deliver fashionable designs at lower prices. It collects frequent customer feedback and uses IT to closely monitor trends. This allows Zara to make production decisions quickly and produce small quantities of many styles. As a result, Zara is able to deliver new fashion designs about twice a month while competitors take 3-5 months. This rapid turnover keeps customers engaged with frequent store visits and purchases.
For ZARA stores to be able to offer cutting edge fashion at affordable prices requires the firm to exert a strong influence over almost the entire garment supply chain.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Zara paid more & more efforts on information technology. We can say that information technology considered as the heart of Zara's business.
1.)close watch on trends : Market research on university campuses, discos & other venues.2.) buying behaviour: through qualitative comments & feedback.3.) quick decisions ;HQ regional managers collect the information and analysis the feedback & on the basis of that the decisions.4.) inventory control: collect fabrics from stores, dyeing finishing, .5.) distributors: line in stores and first to stores.
Information flows daily..designer check the database before the dispatches as well uses information to create new lines and modify existing ones.
Zara is very specific with the standardization of product information. Zara warehouses the product information it quickly prepares & accurately prepare designs with clear cut manufacturing instructions.
They focused more on product information and inventory management Zara team have the capability to design a garment with available stocks they did not wait for the material to come and then manufacturing takes place.
They have a good distribution system. Approximately 200 km of underground tracks move merchandises from Zara's manufacturing plant to the 400+ stores.60000 items of clothing in a hour.Zaras merchandises does not waste time waiting for human sorting.ss
1.) they used to changed the products quickly in stores & also provide an appropriate discount.2.) It consisted of limited sales a year they have an industry average of around 35%.3.) They put more efforts on current fashion trend they spend more on designing rater than interpreting the fresh.4.) ZARA always delivers a hot & exclusive fashion and charged a moderate price and consumer happily paid for that.
