Always adapting. Always learning... whatever it takes attitude!

Long time ago, I began putting my developer hat on, I practiced the usual examples of “Hello World!”. You send from a client to a server then, you get an answer. Nowadays, we have to deal with a new paradigm:
Push Versus Pull: Technically, known as Event-Driven Applications.
Time to adapt, time to visualize the big picture! So, nowadays when I practice examples of FaaS (Function as a Service), from the beginning I try to apply this new paradigm.
- What do you mean, Jordi?
- Let’s put an example #Touristologists! You know my motto “If you are unable to give an example... you don’t fully understand the Theory!!!
You create an app in FaaS format ready to get a trigger. For example, a message from an IoT device that have a Deep Learning model at the edge in order to detect YOUR Tourists.
Is it necessary to repeat (again) that this recognition process will need the authorization of the Tourist? Just remember “customization without privacy is a nightmare!”
Blockchain technologies can help a lot in this subject!
Once a Tourist is detected, the IoT device will send a message to the FaaS application that, at the same time, will send a notification to a mobile app used for OUR #Touristologists able to propose the best opportunities in order to increase the transformative power of a trip OR the best solution for the potential problem the Tourist is facing during the Trip.
Thanks to Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality technologies these Touristologists can visualize where is the Tourists and what is going on.
These Event-Driven Applications can improve the operations and processes of any Tourism Enterprise or Destination.
In the same way, that trip can improve Tourist’s life and better satisfy some necessities that they can have. As we discussed here...

“Travel has always been a great provider of international networking for business or for sharing a passion. You can think to Marco Polo for instance! Travel has always been a great provider of new perspectives because you get isolation of your normal environment. For that reason, divorce Hotel or divorce Tourism are good business endeavors. Travel has always been the origin of a bunch of creativity. Was Darwin travelling when He developed one of the main ideas in Biology? A trip has always been an excellent way to create bonds between Tourists travelling together. I’m sure that you know examples of team building for enterprises or for families both classic ones or new ones (PANKS, Single Dads, GrandParents…).”
So, better operations and processes, improving the transformative power of a trip...
AND...
If YOUR Enterprise/Tourism destination is running the show...I mean, managing the trip from the beginning to the end, with YOUR Platform, seducing YOUR Tourists... You also will see an improving in your profits!
Ready? My #Touristologists are!
