I would like to try using the Speaker Recognition service offered on the Azure platform in a hobbyist project, though being quite new to the platform I am unsure if I am able to access it. The infomation page states that it is only avalible in the WestUS region and since I am in the UK, does this make me unable to access it?
I have been able to set up a Cognitive Services instance in the westUS region, though I'm not sure if this is refering to the same "region" as is required.
Yes, currently, Speaker Recognition only supports Azure Speech resources created in the westus region. You need to have a resource in westus region to use Speaker Recognition service.

first of all im new here and i dont have big knowledges of Programming or Watson Assistant.
I am just trying to test the opportunities of Watson cause i want to create a Chatbot for my Company.
So i followed the instructions of this Site:
https://developer.ibm.com/technologies/artificial-intelligence/tutorials/integrate-coversation-service-with-telegram-using-node-red/
but every time i try to make a connection to my NodeRed App it says "Failed to get the service plan a7c3614c-c75f-4c45-85e4-0626492539d3".
I am thankful for any kind of help.
The archived tutorial you link to makes use of the Conversation node, which has long been deleted and replaced with Assistant and Assistant V2. You should be using one of those nodes, but the configuration you use will be different depending on which node you are using.
Assistant required a Workspace ID and Assistant V2 requires an Assistant ID. They are different.
We are currently using HERE technologies for our routing & navigation product for on demand bus service.
We are invited to run on demand bus service in an industrial complex. The area is privately run. There are 2 specific requirement which will determine routing and navigation solution that we use for the on demand bus service in that complex:
Able to maintain and update map details in the industrial complex quickly and easily. Map within the industrial complex will be maintained by the industrial complex administrator. They will update or draw their own map as and when new road are built or changed. And it should reflect immediately (in very short lead time) for routing and navigation purpose.
Map details must not be open to public.
We are currently using HERE Map for turn by turn navigation and route planning. However, we are referring to public map which is hosted by HERE map. And also any changes of map details will subject to normal process and lead time of here map creator
https://mapcreator.here.com/
Please help to check whether or not any of HERE product allowing us to have full control of map update and not open to public. It is also important to make sure the version of map can be linked to route planning and turn by turn navigation (Android Mobile SDK).
The product that we think potentially can fit into this requirement are
HERE XYZ -- https://www.here.xyz/
&
https://www.here.com/products/location-based-services/self-hosting
Please help to double confirm if we can still use HERE Technologies product and services for such project requirements.
Yes, self hosting the HERE Map data and Location services is possible. Like stated on our page:
When businesses require more control of their data and infrastructure environment, then uploading to a public cloud is not an option. HERE offers a variety of location services that can be hosted on your own privately controlled infrastructure, on your preferred public cloud provider, or both. We aim to meet your exact needs – whether you’re building a new solution or integrating location functionality into an existing platform.
Please contact HERE Sales with your use case:

I've seen the videos about Azure CosmosDB scaling around the world by clicking on a map, which is neat. But in those demos, they connect directly to the database from a client.
It's my understanding that allowing a client (like wpf desktop program) to directly access a database is a bad idea. It should be behind a web api that we control access to.
So for scaling globally, I don't really need lots of areas where users are, I need the same datacenter that's hosting the api.
Is this correct?
There is an interesting article in the docs refering to Multi-master database architecture that will be useful.
Basically, if you are going to expose a Web API and clients will connect to it instead of the database, you want the Web API as closer to the database as possible (that's when global replication comes into play).
To transparently connect the client to the closest API, you can use Traffic Manager's Geographic routing.
We are planning to develop a web based application for one of the Research Institute.
Overview of the application:
It is survey application
It requires login credentials for data-entry operator to open web-app for collecting participant’s information
It has fixed number of login credentials for data-entry operators (No user registration)
Google Maps APIs will be used in this application for locating and collecting participant’s address details (Places Search APIs and
Reverse Geo coding)
We have gone through the following links
https://developers.google.com/maps/pricing-and-plans/
https://developers.google.com/maps/terms
As this application will be used by Research Institute, We are not sure which plan (Standard/Premium) can be used for such type of application.
Also we are not able to connect with Sales team where we can evaluate the application for correct billing plan.
We need help on following items
Identifying correct plan/package for pricing and legal terms as the customer is a research institute
How can we connect to direct Googles' sales team for clarifying or identifying correct plan as there is no direct support available except for Premium plan?
After different searches (googling) and connects found below URL to connect with Google Support team for Map API queries
https://enterprise.google.com/intl/en_in/maps/contact-form/
Note: We got response from google support team after aprox. 7 days. So expect minimum 7 days for response.
Hope this would help to someone having similar query.
Thanks!
Prior to iOS 6, the ios maps api had restrictions for developers, imposed by Google, some of which are the following:
10.9 use the Service or Content with any products, systems, or applications for or in connection with:
(a) real time navigation or route guidance, including but not limited to turn-by-turn route guidance that is synchronized to the position of a user's sensor-enabled device;
(b) any systems or functions for automatic or autonomous control of vehicle behavior; or
(c) dispatch, fleet management, business asset tracking, or similar enterprise applications (the Google Maps API can be used to track assets (such as cars, buses or other vehicles) as long as the tracking application is made available to the public without charge. For example, you may offer a free, public Maps API Implementation that displays real-time public transit or other transportation status information.
(taken from http://code.google.com/apis/maps/iphone/terms.html. Apple's Map Kit framework also points there.)
Are these restrictions still in place for ios 6, despite Google no longer providing the maps? Searched the web (and Apple's documentation) for an answer but came up short.
I'm going to build an app that manages a company's rental car fleet (private) and need to use a maps solution for just that. Up until ios 6 I was leaning towards using openlayers + webview but would rather use a native solution if possible.
Thank you in advance.
Maybe that's not the case, but seems that if you use CoreLocation to obtain vehicle location and then use in somehow for fleet management, you're not allowed to do that as far as it contradicts the App Review Guidelines 4.3:
4.3
Apps that use location-based APIs for dispatch, fleet management, or emergency services will be rejected
UPD (1.feb.15): As lan noticed, this guideline is no longer present in the list.
