Behind Santa’s Christmas Magic: Happy Holidays from EACOMM!

What the North Pole Can Teach Us About Custom Software Every December, Santa runs the most demanding logistics and workflow operation imaginable, while the world marvels at the magic of Christmas. Billions of wish lists. Millions of toys. One global overnight delivery window. And zero room for delays. Sure, flying reindeer, teleporting chimneys, and tireless Christmas Elves give Santa an advantage most business leaders could only dream of, but even with all that magic, the Santa operation is essentially a massive enterprise workflow ready to collapse under its own peppermint-scented pressure. And big operations need big systems. At EACOMM, our...

Developer doing Vibe Coding

The Truth About Vibe Coding (AI-Assisted Programming)

Vibe coding is an emerging software-development workflow that shifts the programmer’s role from writing every line of code to prompting and refining an AI assistant that generates code from natural-language descriptions. Coined by Andrej Karpathy in early 2025, the term refers to building, modifying, and debugging software code by conversing with an AI chatbot. In practice, developers describe high-level goals or functions in plain English, and a large language model (e.g. ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, Amazon CodeWhisperer, etc.) produces code snippets or even full modules. For example, this Microsoft article notes that vibe coding is “opening the door to newcomers and...

How AI Is Now Revolutionizing Image Search for Businesses

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is redefining how businesses find, organize, and use visual content. What began as simple color and shape matching has evolved into intelligent image search systems that understand the meaning behind images. Today, companies can search massive image libraries—or even the entire web—by simply uploading a photo or typing a brief description. This transformation is driving real business value. In e-commerce, AI-powered image search helps shoppers find products visually instead of relying on keywords. In healthcare, it assists doctors in comparing medical scans for quicker, more accurate diagnoses. In media and marketing, it enables creative teams to manage...

AI-Powered Research: Transforming Universities with RAG + watsonx

Universities and colleges are at the heart of knowledge creation, producing a constant stream of theses, dissertations, and scholarly journals.

Audiocodes MP-118 FXS Configuration with Elastix

•
August 6, 2013

EACOMM just upgraded the extensions for our Elastix PBX System from using antiquated Linksys PAP2 devices to an Audiocodes MP118 8-port FXS. The Linksys PAP2’s were simply too buggy and tend to die after a year or two and we’ve given up on finding replacement devices in the local market. Audiocodes being a top of the line product, we thought we won’t get into too much issues in configuring it but it seems much of the information we found online did not directly apply to the device we purchased (even the included quick start guide seemed out of date) and …
