banking and financial from their mobile devices. As
a result, more banks are establishing partnerships
with FinTech startups, which can drive digital
payment innovation with a more agile mindset,”
said Abdirizak Ibrahim Salah, Co-Founder of Trriple,
a UAE-based digital payments startup.
Global investors are pouring money into FinTech
firms. Investment grew by 75% from $13 billion in
2014 to $22 billion by 2015, according to a recent
Accenture report. At last year’s GITEX, Trriple
launched as a company and signed a partnership
with Ericsson on mobile wallet solutions in
banking and Smart Cities. Trriple returns this year
to showcase digital payment innovations, and
exhibit alongside FinTech startups at the GITEX
Startup Movement. “Cash represents 75% of the
UAE’s total payments – leading to a fragmented
payment space for consumers, businesses, and
banks. Innovative FinTech startups can use mobile
apps to transform the UAE consumer payments
space, leading to a cashless society by 2018,”
added Abdirizak Ibrahim Salah.

Red Hat has announced the availability of the Ansible Tower App
for Splunk, an application that integrates Ansible Tower by Red Hat
with Splunk Enterprise and Splunk Cloud. The application brings
the power and variety of Splunk analytics queries to Ansible Tower
automation, and enables Ansible Tower and Splunk customers
to view Ansible automation data in Splunk solutions where it can
be correlated with other data sources throughout the application
delivery lifecycle, providing new levels of operational intelligence.
The Ansible Tower App for Splunk enables customers to more
deeply analyse the data generated by Ansible Tower automations
and generate customized reports. These reports can then be
shared between teams to facilitate operational decisions and
activities. Ansible Tower data stream now available in the Splunk
platform includes:
- Ansible Tower system tracking data imports Ansible system
facts into the Splunk platform, including details about
services, packages and even hardware data. This data offers
administrators the necessary tools to audit and verify that
machines are in compliance, see how machine configurations
have drifted over time, and compare system configuration
across machines.
- Ansible Tower activity streams pulls the full output of Ansible
Tower job status including job details, activity streams, and
Ansible run logs. This data helps administrators understand the
efficiency of their automated processes.
- Ansible Tower administrative event data indicates which user
made what changes and when they were made. This enables
organisations to have a detailed audit trail for compliance and
remediation.
