The Future of ‘Cloudification’

Image
Today, we are living in ‘ Cloud ’ era where we can connect everything digitally to Clouds which offers a whole new world of services, applications, and platforms. Now almost   everyone comprehends cloud service is an unstoppable trend in the industry. Though cloud is not a new idea, we are just exploring its true capabilities. Here are a few significant ways in which the cloud will shape our lives over the next decade and beyond. Clouding Data Businesses grow organically, and much of the intrinsic value of a business resides in its data which is not just about the customer and product data, but also many other types of information that might fall under the big data umbrella. The cloud services help to cope with growing volumes of data and it enables us to store rising tide of data and mine it for usable insights, so new systems and software are adopted, mergers and acquisitions prompt integrations and migrations, and new devices and endpoints are added to networks all the t

Brazil’s Azul Received First Embraer E195-E2

Image
First delivery of the Embraer E195-E2 on Thursday not only marked the start of what the Brazilian manufacturer hopes will be a continued run of success in the segment of the small narrowbody market up to 150 seats, but it heralded news of a plan by JetBlue founder and Azul chairman David Neeleman to launch yet another new airline, using E195s in the U.S. The largest airplane ever built by Embraer, the E195-E2 goes to Brazil’s Azul at a time AerCap CEO Angus Kelly called a unique moment in the company’s economic and industrial history and as the country’s largest domestic carrier embarks on the next phase of its rapid development. Appearing with Kelly at Embraer’s manufacturing campus in Sao Jose dos Campos, Brazil, Neeleman thanked the leasing company executive “for [his] support and all [his] money.” AerCap will lease roughly half of Azul’s E195-E2s, including part of the order for 51 so far publicized. Now flying four aircraft types, including ATRs, Airbus A320s and A330s,

AstroScience: Most Massive Neutron Star Ever Detected

Image
Astronomers have discovered the most massive neutron star to date, a rapidly spinning pulsar approximately 4,600 light-years from Earth. This record-breaking object is teetering on the edge of existence, approaching the theoretical maximum mass possible for a neutron star. A team of astronomers using the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Green Bank Telescope (GBT) has brought us closer to finding the answers. The researchers, members of the NANOGrav Physics Frontiers Center, discovered that a rapidly rotating millisecond pulsar, called J0740+6620, is the most massive neutron star ever measured, packing 2.17 times the mass of our Sun into a sphere only 30 kilometers across. This measurement approaches the limits of how massive and compact a single object can become without crushing itself down into a black hole. Recent work involving gravitational waves observed from colliding neutron stars by LIGO suggests that 2.17 solar masses might be very near that limit. “Neutron star

For Aug’19 US Retail Sales Rose as Auto Buying Jumped

Image
In August, U.S. retail sales rose moderately driven higher by a jump in auto buying and healthy online sales. The Commerce Department says retail sales increased 0.4% last month, down from a healthy 0.8% in July. Excluding autos, sales were unchanged for the first time since February. The modest slowdown follows signs that consumer confidence, while still strong, has slipped a bit as the U.S.-China trade war has intensified. U.S. businesses have cut back on their investment and expansion plans amid the trade war’s uncertainty and exports have declined. That has left consumers as a key source of growth. Online sales continued to soar, rising 1.6%, roughly the same amount as in July, when Amazon held its Prime Day. Retail sales have been strong for most of this year, and most economists have expected sales to slow from that healthy pace. Home and garden centers reported a strong 1.4% gain, which may have been partly spurred by preparations for Hurricane Dorian. Sales at sport

International Sports Award Won by SA Snorkeling Project

Image
A Cape Town marine project that promotes ocean conservation by taking children from Khayelitsha and Mitchells Plain snorkelling has won an international award. Hosted by Beyond Sport, an international pioneer that promotes social change through sport, at a ceremony in New York on Thursday night announced  IAMWATER as a recipient of the award in the Sport for Climate Action Collective Impact category. The non-profit organisation accomplishes this through “transformative experiences”. “We take learners on our two-day Ocean Guardians snorkelling workshops to spark a connection and love for the sea and its creatures, inspiring participants to be more conservation-minded and to want to take care of the oceans,” said Hanli Prinsloo, chief executive of IAMWATER. She said their target audience were grade 7 pupils, many of whom had not visited the ocean or knew how to swim. “We are passionate about working with underprivileged coastal communities where, despite living [within] walk

AUD & NZD Dollar on New 2019 Highs

Image
AUD & NZD  Dollar has reaches above 1.0729, it’s 2019 highs.  Both the Australian Dollar and the New Zealand Dollar face many of the same risks from the trade war between China and the US.  In a nutshell, a slowdown in China would cause a slowdown in both the Australian and New Zealand economies, as both are large exporters to China. So why is the Australian Dollar outpacing the New Zealand Dollar?  Q2 GDP for Australia is at 0.5% (MoM), however the RBA expects growth to strengthen gradually around trend over the next couple of years.  The RBA held rates steady at its last meeting at 1.00%.  In contrast, the RBNZ surprised the market by cutting 50bps to 1.00% at its August 7th meeting and said that growth has slowed and that headwinds continue to strengthen.  Should economic growth slow more than the RBNZ expects, they have said they are willing to lower interest rates even further.  Next week, New Zealand releases GDP for Q2. Previous GDP was at 0.6% (MoM) vs expectations fo
