Archi's Academy at SuperCharger Ventures Accelerator Program Cohort 3
The launch day was a pivotal moment where we could clearly communicate Archi’s Academy’s mission and how we’re addressing the gaps in tech education. We’ve also gained valuable insights from the other startups in the cohort, each bringing a unique approach to innovation, which has helped us reflect on our strategies and refine our goals. The workshops, particularly those focused on the Maltese business environment, talent acquisition, and retention, have been highly beneficial. Understanding the local ecosystem and how we can fit into it has provided us with new ideas for expansion and collaboration. This accelerator program is shaping up to be a game-changer for us, and we are excited about what lies ahead!

Cyber Security Countermeasures
Hey everyone, I am back with next part of the series. A strong cybersecurity method has layers of protection to defend against cybercrime, including cyber-attacks that attempt to access, change, or destroy data; extort money from users or the organization, or aim to disrupt normal business operations. **Some of the countermeasures are:** **Critical Infrastructure Security** – keeps safe the computers, networks, and other assets that society relies upon for national security, economic health, and/or public safety. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has created a cybersecurity framework to help organizations while the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) provides additional guidance.
Selenium
Selenium is a free automated testing framework used to validate web applications across different browsers and platforms. # What is Automation Testing? Automation testing is the **application of tools and technology to testing software with the goal of reducing testing efforts,** delivering capability faster and more affordably. It helps in building better quality software with less effort. There are different types of automation tools. Here are few of them mentioned below: **1.** Selenium **2.** Appium **3.** Katalon Studio **4.** UFT **5.** JMeter **6.** Cypress Here we are focusing on the widely used framework Selenium. Primarily, selenium was created by Jason Huggins in 2004. Selenium is a set of tools that supports development of test automation for web based animations. It supports multiple programming languages like Java, Ruby, Python, C++.
Virtual Reality
Virtual Reality is a fully digital experience that can either simulate or differ completely from the real world. Instead of viewing a screen in front of them, users are immersed and able to interact with 3D worlds. Apart from its popular gaming use case, virtual reality is applied in a variety of industries, such as medicine, architecture, military, and others. In order to experience and interact with virtual reality, you’ll need the proper equipment, like a pair of VR glasses or a headset. It was first used to give training to pilots, instead of sitting in planes they could control operations using the VR headset. # Types of Virtual Reality There are three main types of virtual reality used today to transform the world around us, including non-immersive, semi-immersive, and fully-immersive simulations.
CAD - Computer-Aided Design
# What is CAD? CAD (Computer-Aided Design) is a technology used by architects, engineers and designers, which allows us to draw in 2D or 3D on the computer, to easily review and edit these drawings. It may sound interesting to you but now look around, if the things you see are less than 30-40 years old, it's very likely CAD designed. Everything from the chair you are sitting on to the computer or phone you are reading this blog with, to the electrical circuits produced for this computer, have been drawn with CAD programs.
SQL vs NoSQL Databases
When it comes to choosing a database for your project, the options are countless. That being said, most databases will fall into two categories: SQL and NoSQL databases. Both have their pros and cons but first let’s understand the meaning of each term. # SQL **SQL** is an acronym for **‘Structured Query Language’.** It’s a domain specific programming language that is used for CRUD operations within a RDMS (Relational Database Management System). It is mainly used for managing structured data where we have a relationship between various entities and variables of the data. SQL consists of various types of statements that are used to query the data stored in the databases. ## DML - Data Manipulation Language These types of statements are used for performing the CRUD operations in the database. Examples of common DML commands in SQL are **SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE.**
