Semi-Automated Processes vs Adaptive Automation
Developers should learn about semi-automated processes when building systems that require scalability and reliability but involve tasks too nuanced for full automation, such as content moderation, data validation, or customer support workflows meets developers should learn adaptive automation when working on complex, rapidly evolving applications where traditional static automation becomes costly and brittle, such as in continuous integration/continuous deployment (ci/cd) pipelines. Here's our take.
Semi-Automated Processes
Developers should learn about semi-automated processes when building systems that require scalability and reliability but involve tasks too nuanced for full automation, such as content moderation, data validation, or customer support workflows
Semi-Automated Processes
Nice PickDevelopers should learn about semi-automated processes when building systems that require scalability and reliability but involve tasks too nuanced for full automation, such as content moderation, data validation, or customer support workflows
Pros
- +They are particularly useful in domains like software testing, where automated scripts can run regression tests while humans handle exploratory testing, or in DevOps pipelines for deployment approvals
- +Related to: business-process-automation, robotic-process-automation
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Adaptive Automation
Developers should learn Adaptive Automation when working on complex, rapidly evolving applications where traditional static automation becomes costly and brittle, such as in continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines
Pros
- +It is particularly useful for reducing maintenance overhead in test suites, handling dynamic user interfaces, and scaling automation across diverse platforms and devices
- +Related to: test-automation, machine-learning
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Semi-Automated Processes if: You want they are particularly useful in domains like software testing, where automated scripts can run regression tests while humans handle exploratory testing, or in devops pipelines for deployment approvals and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Adaptive Automation if: You prioritize it is particularly useful for reducing maintenance overhead in test suites, handling dynamic user interfaces, and scaling automation across diverse platforms and devices over what Semi-Automated Processes offers.
