I need help on finalizing the Network Scheme for a Warehouse. Current System has 2 different ISP with total 6 wifi access point for 3 each since it's large Warehouse Each ISP has 3 WiFi access points for connectivity. In current Schenario, If a ISP goes down users has to manually connect to another WiFi. We want to get rid of this architecture and implement single WiFi with 3 Access Points so if any ISP is down a switch changes the ISP automatically so users don't have to change the WiFi.

The key to developer velocity across AI lies in minimizing time to first batch (TTFB) for machine learning (ML) engineers. AI Lab is a pre-production framework used internally at Meta. It allows us to continuously A/B test common ML workflows – enabling proactive improvements and automatically preventing regressions on TTFB. AI Lab prevents TTFB regressions whilst enabling experimentation to develop improvements.
