The metaverse has been made possible thanks to the ever-growing role digitalisation plays in our lives. It allows lotteries to start the necessary process of attracting younger customers through the use of AI by activating previously unknown emotions and through personalised customer contact. We explain what this looks like in detail in our blog post.

Gas prices are not only skyrocketing, but electricity prices are also at record highs. That is because the price of the two is coupled as a result of the merit-order effect, the electricity market regulation that is subject to much debate at the moment. We will explain what the merit-order effect is and how it contributes to the coupling of gas and electricity prices in this blog post.

In a previous blog post, we already summarised the reasons and consequences of the second stage of the ‘Emergency Plan for Gas’. In this blog post, we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of nuclear and coal-powered plants.

The rise of digitalisation, the massive increase in competition between companies and the strong need for IT resilience are all driving a change in software development. This means shorter release intervals and smaller software updates instead of infrequent releases and updates in large blocks. This is where the need for containerisation comes into play. Containers really make the most of their potential in combination with Infrastructure as Code (IaC). I will explain how this works in my blog post.

This blog post explains why the use of data in the health sector makes sense and which concepts and framework conditions need to be created for this.

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.

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.

Hydrogen is currently seen as the energy of the future. While that may be the case, there are a number of challenges that come with it. You will find out what these hurdles are and how they can be overcome in our blog post.

Last week, the federal government decided on enacting a gas levy. Read our blog post to find out what the gas levy is, how it is calculated and what the underlying goals are.
