For many adults, one of the most difficult decisions to make is how to care for an elderly parent or relative that needs assistance. Every 11 seconds, an older adult is treated in the emergency room for a fall; every 19 minutes, an older adult dies from a fall. Ambianic is an open-source software solution, which allows the DIY community to take part in solving the global challenge of healthy ageing by offering round the clock surveillance of elderly relatives or patients and instant alert to family caregivers in the event of an accident or fall.

Egeria, an LF AI & Data Foundation Graduated Project, has released version 2.4! Egeria is the world’s first open source metadata standard. It provides open APIs, event formats, types and integration logic so organizations can share data management and governance across the entire enterprise without reformatting or restricting the data to a single format, platform, or vendor product.
In version 2.4, Egeria adds a variety of improvements. Highlights include:
- Integration Server, which makes it easier to exchange metadata with third party technology
- User Interface improvements
- Additional tests
- Bug fixes
- Dependency updates
