Solutions to address challenges such as providing secure access to government databases, managing the mass transit system routes and developing an app to facilitate hydrants location for the Fire Department to use in case of emergency, were just some of the many applications that came out of the 1st Puerto Rico Tech Summit held Thursday.
Network engineers from Puerto Rico’s broadband providers met for several days this week at the Telegrafo facilities in Santurce for the “2013 IPv6 Summit for Broadband Network Operators,” to begin preparations for Puerto Rico’s transition to IPv6 – the next generation Internet Protocol.
Internet engagement continues growing in "leaps and bounds" in Puerto Rico, reaching 57 percent of use among island residents 12 and older, representing a little more than 1.8 million users, according to the results of the 2013 “SME Digital & Mobile Behavioral Study,” commissioned and revealed by the Sales and Marketing Executives Association Thursday.
