At the outset, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Broadridge Financial Solutions (India) Pvt Ltd., for providing the platform to pursue my passion in the field of technology.
My heartfelt thanks to Laxmikanth V, my mentor and Managing Director of the firm, for his continued support and the foreword for this book, Dr. Dakshinamurthy Kolluru, President, International School of Engineering (INSOFE), for helping me discover my love for Machine learning and Mr. Nagaraju Pappu, Founder & Chief Architect Canopus Consulting, for being my mentor in Enterprise Architecture.
This acknowledgement is incomplete without a special mention of Packt Publications for giving this opportunity to outline, conceptualize and provide complete support in releasing this book. This is my second publication with them, and again it is a pleasure to work with a highly professional crew and the expert reviewers.
To my husband, family and friends for their continued support as always. One person whom I owe the most is my lovely and understanding daughter Sai Nikita who was as excited as me throughout this journey of writing this book. I only wish there were more than 24 hours in a day and would have spent all that time with you Niki!
Lastly, this book is a humble submission to all the restless minds in the technology world for their relentless pursuit to build something new every single day that makes the lives of people better and more exciting.
