How are you guys? So I am here today to show you this pre-poo disclaimer. This pre-poo is very similar to Nappy Head and Herobas DIY pre-poo. A couple of things are different. Of course with Oliveira, fresh Oliveira plant being the main source. There are two things that I think really make this particular pre-poo. The coconut vinegar and the Taliyah Wajid, the grape detangler. Now of course I could say get you a conditioner with great slip but this bad boy is fabulous. So if you can get your hands on this particular product, I will say use it. The footage that I had of me actually making the pre-poo, I accidentally deleted it. Now we'll have a picture in between here if I haven't checked it already. The pre-poo consists of, I'm going off memory, half a cup of Oliveira, three tablespoons of this Taliyah Wajid because that's all I had. Half a cup of the coconut swab conditioner, three tablespoons of the coconut vinegar, and three tablespoons of olive oil. Mix it all together fairly well, okay? I'm so sorry. So this is what it looks like. Yes, very thick. I may get questions, can I keep this in the, how long can I keep it? I stay in the refrigerator for three to four days because Oliveira can be very sticky, slimy. Excuse the background. He's playing with his leg up now.  Now, I know that there are several of you that feel like pre-poo, which is an extra step girl. Like why would I want to have my wash day longer? Because the reason for this is that I feel like the pre-poo actually prepares yourself for the wash. And I found that for my cell, especially since I have thick, foresee hair, poor category hair, excuse me, I find for me personally that my wash day is not as long. So, washing, conditioning, goes like that. Seriously, when I pre-poo, you'll get used to the process too, but I understand it could seem like an extra wide a heck step, but trust me, once you start doing it, your hair will love you for it. All right, you guys, let me hush up, start sectioning off my hair, and we will begin applying the pre-poo. All right, you guys, so you didn't see footage of this, but I actually did spray my hair with warm water before applying the pre-poo. Now, this goes on really well. I actually prefer this more so than my previous recipe I used that was very similar to Nappy Head Hellhub's recipe, excuse me. I'm going to be very heavy-handed with this product, y'all. You're going to see me rake this through my hair, and then I'm going to use a mix of my wooden comb and a goodie comb that I purchased a while back. But I primarily am going to finger-to-tangle my hair. I'm going back to finger-to-tangling. If I feel like I need to use a tool throughout my regimen, I will do so. But yeah, going back to basics, going back to basics. One thing I do want to note is that my original recipe for this, I did rattle off the recipe, but my original recipe called for more of the Taliyah Wajid product, and I will be having that in the description box, okay? The angle section looks like this. The tangled section looks like this, there we go, see, there we go. She is all detangled and ready to gym finish out girl. So that is it you guys. Thank you so much for watching and thank you as always so don't forget to subscribe


I'll tell you the biggest thing that I believe that nobody talks about. Almost everything's genetic.  Nobody! Even the people you think that speak truth, dude, genes are so powerful you can't fathom.   Now, there are things related to nurture. You can destroy your genes. So for example, Shaquille O'Neal, I just had him on my first podcast for iBoughtBodyBuilding.com. He's seven foot two.   But if he had an environment where his mom or dad had underfed him, the environment would have stymied his growth and he wouldn't have lived up to his seven foot two potential.

Other than that, just a quick reminder guys, I want to thank everybody who's taken advantage of the 25 for the 25 years. My 25th anniversary is coming up in a couple of weeks for you guys who came aboard in the last couple of days. I'm really, really humbled by the turnout guys is very, very cool. Very, very cool that you are opening up your horizons to kind of see what the PS60 theory is all about, what the pivots have to offer. And I'm confident to say in the last couple of days, I think a lot of your minds have been opened up and see exactly what happens when you trade the channel. So thank you very much. If you are interested guys, we're only going to run it for the next few days towards the end of the week, till the end of the week. The link is below and if you are interested in pivots, then come aboard, come aboard for the next 30 days and see if it's a right fit for you. So let's talk about it. So yesterday, again, we had this really, really big move to the downside of the market. We talked about on the last night's video that is one of those scenarios that we kind of saw, we kind of seen this movie before. We talked about it on a couple of different days that we retested the 20-day moving average of what happened the next day. It bounced. We can test it again on January 31st. The following day, it bounced. We retested it again yesterday and we talked about the line in the sand for the bulls and the bears of this 425. And what happened today? Drum roll please. We bounced again. So bulls definitely held serve. It was a little bit touch and go for the bulls yesterday, but they definitely held serve. Pretty powerful move up today. For a while, it didn't feel like we were going to come out of this range. If you look at the 16 minute view, literally for the whole day, we were just stuck into this channel and towards the end of the day, you could see towards the end of the day in the last hour or so, we started powering up. And it's the same crew of names over and over again. You've got NVIDIA just to continue to be NVIDIA, SMCI. I mean, where does this thing stop? My goodness, where does this thing stop? This thing is up another 89 points today. It's one of the more epic moves of a name that I can remember in a long, long time. That's actually a real company. So absolutely incredible move. Coin with the move of Bitcoin put up another $20 today. Tomorrow they report after the close. Again, we'll see tomorrow if it's a scenario of, hey, it's already built in based on the Bitcoin run up, or are they going to challenge the December highs? Which in this market, because it could be very, very conceivable. After the close, you had Cisco come out with earnings. If this was 20 years ago, this would be a big deal. Not as much anymore, right? And the weirdest thing that happened after the close was Tesla. If you guys remember, and this is not a bad print. If you guys remember several weeks ago, Elon Musk basically came out and said, hey, if I don't own 20% of the Tesla shares, well, what's the point? What's the point? I could save my time and energy and I can work on other AI related companies and so forth and so forth. And the market obviously didn't like that news. And there was a report that came out today that there was a 13G filing after the close that said that Elon's position now is back over 20%. Initially, as you can see, the stock spiked about six, seven points. And then there was a lot of reporting. I'm reading right from the report. There was a bunch of confusion from this 13G filing that said, Elon Musk apparently still owns 411 million shares, right? Go cry for me, Argentina, which is roughly only 13% of his shares, not the 20.5% that is shown in the filing. This is exactly the same ownership as he had on December the 31st that he includes 304 million worth of options that he earned in 2018. So there's a lot of confusion. And because of there's a lot of confusion, the initial run up was about seven points. And Tesla is only up about 50, 60 cents now after the close. So again, be careful about chasing PRs until more of the context behind it. But again, we'll see what happens tomorrow with Tesla with this PR. But if this statement, I guess, from something or other gets faded, or is it finally going to get above this daily supply? We'll see what happens there. But other than that, again, market continues to go bananas. That's the best way of saying it continues to go bananas. At the end of the day today, Nasdaq lost yesterday about 2%. Well, it made back about 1.3%. Today, the Dow was down 500. It was up about 150 points today. So market continues to be out of control. And the question is, again, when does it end? At this point, does it matter? Does it matter? The most important part of the open-ended question is, well, what happens next? Not let's play Ms. Clio try to predict the future. The answer to this question is what happens next. And now we have a definitive top of the range for the bulls to reclaim. And now we have the bottom of the range that the bears need to reclaim. And let's talk about these numbers. So write this down, guys. The five-day moving average we close right on top of the five-day moving average today at 43.65. Everybody see that, guys? 4.33.65 is the five-day supply. That's where we close. So the bulls, for them to stampede back to all-time highs, we're going to need to build above this level tomorrow, above this 4.33.65, 4.34 level to kind of get back to this 4.38, 4.39 level that it made all-time highs. For the bears, pretty basic stuff here. So 4.34 to the upside. And 4.25, that was the low we made yesterday, putting in a bottom off this rising support. So 4.34 to the upside, 4.25 to the downside. For the SPX, right? For the SPX, pretty much is the same mirror image as the Qs. So you have 5,003 to the upside. And you have 49.20 to the downside. That is your assessment for tomorrow, right? To the upside and to the downside, if you look at names that are coming out of the channels for tomorrow, look at Netflix, right? Let me give you guys a couple of names. Look at Netflix. Netflix is very, very close busting out above earnings highs. Again, is this the easiest stock to trade? No. But when this thing gets going, it does get going. Keep an eye on this thing for tomorrow confirming its earnings highs.  A&D looks great, absolutely great. A&D, all it needs to do is get above this channel here to start making its way back to the highs. Amazon is very close to reclaiming supplies. As you can see here, it's mirror imaging, the NASDAQ 100 pretty much to a T. Last couple of days in a row, it's been rejected off the 5-day moving average. Again, if the NASDAQ can reclaim the 5-day, I'm assuming Amazon can reclaim the 5-day. Jeff Bezos has been selling stock. But again, if he's been selling stock and they've been engulfing these sales and it reclaims back the 5-day, it's going to be a very, very strong sign. Meta, again, we've been catching Meta here, Meta there, a couple of points here, a couple of points there. It still hasn't gotten above the earnings highs or tested earnings highs yet. Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day, but again, you have to assume one of these days if the market continues to be strong, Meta will attack the earnings highs. And look at the letter U, right? Not a sexy name, but you see how many times it's gotten rejected here, guys, right? One, two, three times. The last one above the 50-day moving average. If letter U can get above the 50-day moving average, this thing could really, really wake up and get its another mojo back. Tomorrow, you have earnings reports from DraftKings, which I really like the chart. But again, we don't know what's going to happen on earnings. You have DraftKings tomorrow. You have, let's see, you have Coinbase, obviously, that's going to be, at least the most widest to watch, widespread name to watch. You've got AMAP tomorrow in the semiconductor space. Again, the semis have been just going absolutely nuts. The latest one has been Arm. You've got Deer. You've got Deer tomorrow to affect the Dow, Wendy's, Sunpower, nothing really shakeshack, and Roku, and you have Roku for tomorrow. So again, just a crazy market. Bulls continue to hold serve, but it really does show you. You could do very, very well trading both sides of the market, so it's very, very important to understand that. That's why we're always prepared on both sides. We're never tied ourselves in the corner or our opinion. So let's talk about quickly the pivots. I got to run. My daughter's high school team has a quarterfinal playoff game, so I have to get to that. Tesla, 182 if it builds below, can flush. It never did that. However, we call it a really, really good rejection of the 187 opening range highs that actually went red in the day. Didn't quite get to 82, but a nice $3 rejection there. This is the only one that didn't work out for me today. I started shorting this NYCB. If you guys remember that, some issues a couple of weeks back. $448, if it builds below, can flush. I shorted it off this $448 level, went down like seven cents or so. When I came back from the gym, I got stopped out. I lost about $0.15, so whatever it is, what it is there. Again, really kind of shows you how randomly small cap stocks are. I know this is not the traditional small cap stock, but beta, you have a grasp of what's going on with these things, God only knows. Navidia's $734.50 needs to build. Again, what's left to say about Navidia. The stock is an absolute monster. Stock ripped initially about six points. It actually went red in a day and then ripped back in the afternoon, but a nice pop there on Navidia. TBBB, it's a name I found last night for you guys in the webinar. It's a recent IPO, 21 rejected twice. Needs to build. Here is TBBB. Finally took out the 21, traded up to 21.50. This is the highest close. It's very long shelf life of four days, but again, a nice little pop there on a $21 stock. AMD, $73.20 needs to build. AMD is really starting to be a good trader. It really has. It took out the $73.20, took out the opening range high of $74.50, went to like the $75s, pulled back in and closed really, really strong, almost in the 79 area. Again, it just needs to get out above this top of the range here to start attacking the highs. A really strong move there as well. ARM went pre-market. It went pre-market for like two, three points. I don't think anybody traded it. It went pre-market before the bell. Meta, nice little pop there on Meta. I actually traded off the opening range highs of $70, but $468.50 needs to build. Went to $72 initially and then in the afternoon, market spiked again, went to about 74. So again, Meta continues to be good, but I want to see it ready. Gooder, right? That's my English teacher at high school rolling over in our grave at this point because I don't think gooder is a name, is it? I don't think gooder is a word, but it is in my world. So gooder is there. Other than that, Microsoft didn't get the 403.39 as well. So again, we're set up again for tomorrow. I'm very curious to see what's going to happen with Tesla with this filing or non-filing or misinformation, but as of right now, it's only up about 70 cents after the close, after spiking $7. So that's it. That's it, guys. Again, for all you guys who are coming aboard tomorrow, guys, I look forward to working with you. I look forward to meeting with you. For all you guys who are just watching along on the YouTube channel or on Twitter, I will never use the word X there. Tomorrow, again, there is no video. It's my usual Thursday night off. So again, have a great day. Have a wonderful Valentine's Day. And with God's help, I'll see you all tomorrow. Take care.


Good afternoon everyone. Good afternoon sir. So we have got a topic on achieving customer excellence in agricultural sector. So we have divided our pick into five which you will be seeing in the following slides. So we have divided the work and you will be seeing the work of achieving customer excellence in my groupmate words. So for us you can continue. Fantastic. Love to see the team names there. That's good. All the best. Go ahead. So yes we have divided our developing customer excellence on these five topics of customer research, product development, marketing strategy, sales and distribution and finally customer satisfaction at the end. So we'll be going to see in detail by our groupmates. But quickly in five minutes. All the best. Okay so I shall be discussing about customer research. So achieving customer excellence basically means putting customer in the central position of all of our activities. So for that we need proper research. All in India level service should be carried out in order to find out what the customer actually wants. What are the pain points of the customer so that we can address this in our products. After that agro-climatic zone based identification of pests and diseases should be carried out because the needs and requirements of each agro-climatic zone is drastically different from the requirements of other zones. So before pushing our product we need to understand the farmer and only then we can achieve customer excellence. And after that also we have to consider existing consumption patterns because we cannot expect that we will introduce a new product and farmer will change his consumption pattern overnight. So we need to understand his habits and cater to his needs only then we can achieve customer excellence. At the next slide we will be discussed by my team mates. Thank you. Thank you. Here we are looking like when we are going to develop the product we have a targeted area. So based on the like who are working in that particular area we have to as Prathya has already said like the different agro-climatic zones have different requirements for different products. Some products might be more suited for agro-climate zone of one type and another thing for other types. So based on the targeted areas we have to be developing the product and then we have a targeted pests like the pests which might be more proliferated in one area might be different from other areas. So you know focusing on this also we have to be developing our product. Then again we have the existing products which the farmers are already using. When we look at the existing products that they're using we can find out the lacunas where they are lacking and where we can enter how we can serve like you can serve the keeping the customer in the center. And finally there's a feedback from the farmers which is very much like necessary when we're developing a product. It can be in the usability of the product and also in the feasibility of the product. So keeping all of these in mind we have to be developing the product. Okay now we'll talk about the marketing strategy. So we are going with this this four strategies. First thing is actually a collaboration with extension department talking about it. Actually the collaboration with different state universities and similarly the collaborations with the different k-weeks and all. So that will give a more impact and introduction into the customers mainly the farmers. And second thing is actually conducting the field days actually. So the company can go to different places different agro climatic zones where we are actually targeting and with the special crops which is actually there and those and conducting such kind of field trails at that particular area would give more like an exposure into the farmers regarding the particular like the herbicide or insecticide. Then penetration in penetration method like you can see in every every state of India like the farmers will have their own clubs their own groups and all in the in the rural areas and all. So the thing is that like the company can send their extension agents to those areas and they can introduce and they can say what are the problems is which the farmers are facing right now and how our particular product can be make it better. The next thing is word of mouth. As you see that one of the best marketing strategy is actually the word of mouth. The farmers who felt actually their product is going sexist they can they can share their sexist stories with everyone and they can share like the importance of this product and how benefiting they are by using this particular product. And those marketing strategy we're believing that this will drive a great a great market role for the particular product. Thank you. Next slide. Thank you. Coming to the sales and distribution of product we actually first we actually maintain a good relationship with the dealers and retailers because they are the first place that we are going to touch before the final direct customer and while this will taking into account the sales and distribution we also see the main cause about the affordability and availability. Affordability of a product actually combines the customers going to that product or not and even if we have high sales and we have a high rate of interest in that particular product we also should ensure the ease of availability and also in this time when we actually concentrate about dealers and retailers we actually give them credit and incentive so that they can promote our products as well. So because most of the times a dealers and retailers have a big say in what product consumers will take. Good evening sir. One or two minutes. How much time you want? We'll finish up in two minutes. The next thing is customer satisfaction and I believe that to achieve customer excellence customer satisfaction should be the top priority and in that when we see the communication barrier is the most important thing that is why we should be going with easy to read pamphlet in vernacular language in their local language so that the farmers or the customers will understand it and next we would see that customer and customer centric feedback taking it's not only about taking the feedback and leaving it there we should be focusing on what actually happening whether the customer is actually satisfied or not we should be the best listeners and very courteous to them and after sales service also is one more very important thing because like we just give them the service and we leave with them that is not important what actually the customer is facing with that and what we are able to provide to that problem to be able to show that empathy with the farmer is a very important thing for being a most customer centric. The next social media environment now these days we see the social media is everywhere and every farmer every customer is able to be able to use social media so we should be taking our products to the social media whether we can where we can actually tag the farmers where we can actually make farmers visible along with our products that makes them most satisfied and the next will be continued by Next is the success story of the farmers we share the success stories on the various social media platforms which get the attraction of the farmers and farmers make satisfied with our product. The second is interactive events with the farmers where we collaboration with the universities and the farmer organization so we can give them the information about our product and much more satisfaction then dedicated Gravins Reducing System the customer as a customer centric our approach we solve the each and every problem of the farmers regarding the pesticides and herbicides in our dedicated Gravins Reducing System. Fantastic thank you Shinde Pratik all the best fantastic oh my god that's a very detailed analysis in such a short period of time beautifully designed slides amazing and of course you know thing is of course you ultimately arrived right so by adopting and doing all this your company would look to be excellent in the eyes of the customer am i correct have i correct sir yes sir yes okay okay great job congratulations


Live from San Francisco, it's theCUBE. Covering Oracle Open World 2016. Brought to you by Oracle. Now, here's your host, John Furrier and Peter Burris. Welcome back, everyone. We are here live in San Francisco for theCUBE. This is SiliconANGLE Media's flagship program where we go out to the events and extract the signal from the noise. I'm John Furrier, the co-CEO of SiliconANGLE Media with Peter Burris, head of research with SiliconANGLE Media. I'm also the general manager of Wikibon Research. Check out wikibon.com for all the latest research in cloud big data infrastructure. We're at Oracle Open World 2016. I'm excited to have our next guest, Don Johnson, VP of Engineering for product development, for the infrastructure as a service, for Oracle Cloud. Welcome to theCUBE. Thank you. Thanks for spending the time to come on. Really appreciate it. Obviously, Oracle's cloud last year was obviously the announcement they're marching to the cloud. A big building block in this was infrastructure as a service. They had the SaaS, they'd taken names, taken a button there and they're transforming. Platform as a service, developing nicely. This year showed some progress. But the upgrade, if you will, or reboot or reset, however you want to call it, was fundamentally introduced the new stuff with infrastructure as a service.  Give us the update. What's the key new news for infrastructure as a service and why is it important? Well, a couple things. Let me start with the last part of your question. Why is it important? So, very broadly, I would say there's kind of two strata of cloud. There's cloud platform and there's everything that's up above, apps, SaaS, et cetera. Cloud platform, I think, is a big category. It's broad spectrum, but it's IS and PAS. And then there's lots of stuff that falls inside of there. IS is a fundamental and foundational building block and all of the characteristics that everything up above relies on or requires is basically enabled by infrastructure. If you want to run in massive scale, if you want network connectivity between place A and place B, if you want intrinsic security, that's all things that are foundational characteristics and you either have them or you don't based on where their infrastructure IS gives them to you. And so, for us, for Oracle, we're a cloud platform company. This is a foundational piece and we're investing in this very aggressively and we're driving in a very innovative direction on this. So, you've been in Amazon since 2005, just recently joined Oracle on the engineering side and infrastructure right now we're seeing is a cost and performance game. Drive the cost down as low as possible while preserving scale and performance. Real critical and almost hardening the top, if you will, creating a hardened infrastructure so that you can enable DevOps and some coolness around agility, all that good stuff up on top of the cloud. So, what's the key things this year that you guys filled in in terms of product? I mean, what was the key innovations and on the development side, what was the key we're in for you guys? Well, so what we've been announcing in IS is really our next generation infrastructure, which is two-fold. It is the infrastructure itself and what our data centers and networks and virtual network looks like and then it's a new suite of products that we put on top of this, bare metal cloud services. And this is the fruit of a big kind of back to basics foundational exercise where we have gone and redesigned everything from the ground up and we've done it with a focus on a bunch of core, core criteria, core things that we wanted to capture and that we wanted to do better, better than have been done in the industry today. And I would characterize those as two-fold. First, we are bringing along all of the best characteristics of the cloud and why the cloud is compelling and what people use it for. Self-service, pay for what you use, it's elastic, it's easy to use, there's low friction, it's high-scale, et cetera. But there's a number of things that for our core customer base actually are very challenging in moving to the cloud. When I say our core customer base, if you have a large existing, if you're an enterprise and you have a large existing infrastructure and deployment typically on-premise, you have a lot of constraints and it's difficult to actually move into this new environment and take advantage of all that it has to offer.  And so we've identified a number of areas that we fundamentally wanted to do better than they've been done before.  Performance, performance is a broad spectrum. Key performance, raw performance, predictable performance and a particular price performance, you're talking about performance and cost. And sort of an adjunct to performance is the ability to harness modern technologies. As if you look at where storage is going, non-pollutile RAM and technologies like Intel Crosspoint, how can you actually enable customers to get access to that and use it and harness what it offers very, very quickly. And most of all, really flexibility, sort of the choice.  So let me be a little bit more precise about this. A core thing that we did, sort of the keys, the special sauce in any cloud platform is the virtual network. And we made a fundamental choice that the way in which we're gonna do the virtual network is to pull the virtualization into the network itself where we think it belongs. But no hypervisor. It's not in the hypervisor. And so what that means is first, it means we're able to, the requirement that we have of something that we can plug into our cloud, your cloud, your virtual network is, it has an ethernet port. This means that we can put anything into a virtualized network. Our whole infrastructure, the presentation of customers is everything runs in a virtual overlay. It's all virtual network. But we could put any class of resource in there. We could do bare metal. We could do an engineered system. We can honestly, we could take an arbitrary middle box from any third party vendor. This lets us give our customers bare metal. Giving our customers bare metal means we can take, so we provide bare metal compute with NVMe drives. They are phenomenal. There is nothing, like we're literally giving you a server in the cloud with a provision in minutes paid by the hour. And you get, in our biggest shape, you get an excess of 4,000,000 and 4K read IOPS. Like this is phenomenal power. So really there's nothing that stands between us, between a technology and us giving it to you. So that was the key design criteria then. That was the key design criteria. And so this, in terms of sort of flexibility and preserving choice, this means, principle you can bring any OS, you can bring any hypervisor. If you have some old stuff that's difficult to move, you can't bring up our hypervisor. So you let the performance, everyone kind of speak for themselves, if you will. So just a customer can put anything on this thing. Yeah. And these are phenomenally powerful boxes. Okay, so now how does that compare with Amazon as your, because the number one question I get is, and I'd love to see if you can put some color around this, is obviously Amazon had a different thing. You guys had a clean sheet of paper and took smaller steps, compute and storage and built services and scaled up there. Azure had kind of backed into it with their existing business, from their portals and all their services, and then now moving their customers on there. So number one question I get is, well, what's different with the IaaS on Oracle, VisaV, AWS, and Microsoft Azure? How do you answer that question? Is there a distinct difference? Is there a design philosophy? Is it a? Well, the design philosophy for IaaS is what I was just articulating in a sense. It looks and acts very, very similar from the perspective of the customer, the user experience at scale, as well as it preserves choice and flexibility and is amenable, basically. It is much more friendly to the large enterprise or large business that is outside of the, oftentimes and typically outside of the sweet spot of what an infrastructure like, say, Amazon was originally designed for. So as a principle, we are trying to meet our customers where they're at from they wanna migrate over some apps and do it cautiously and maybe not change too much about them and not see that as a constraint or an obstacle to get to all of the promise and power of running modern applications in high-scale, highly available. Look, in many respects, Cloud is naturally a network-centered compute model. Yes. By putting more, by not putting network virtualization above the network, by putting it into the network, does that also at some point in time give you greater flexibility, the option to bring even more of the core work that's done down into the network so that you can actually start liberating some of the power of a real network computing model. Others can't do that right now. So if you think about it, what kinds of applications might that make possible in the future? Thinking about IoT, for example, the ability to use a network model to describe how work gets allocated within a cloud of services. Well, I think the network ultimately, what you needed to do, there's a few things you needed to do. You needed to very reliably and quickly move bits from place A to place B. You needed to have the flexibility as a typology to be able to put things in. And you needed to preserve privacy and plugability. So the fundamental thing that I see our virtual network supporting and enabling is basically building up a fabric of services and letting us say, so everyone runs in a private overlay, we want to make it easy for any provider, ourselves as well as any third party provider to inject microservices into your private network. We want to make it easy to be able to bring over traditional security controls where you want to set up bastions and set up taps and be able to introspect, do traditional IDS, IPS. So I see network virtualization really as an enabler of providing a fabric that lets you give you great flexibility and wiring things together to answer your question. So final question for you, what's next? So what's the priorities on the to-do list for you guys as you go down to 2.5 or 2.1, as they say in Microsoft, they're making an odd and even number, making a 2.1 or 2.5 or 3.0, what's next? There's a ton of things. So we're building out data centers and new geographies, we're going big, we're going to add a ton of SKUs, we're going to make bigger things, smaller things, a ton more features really all across the board. So I don't know that I see it as there's a 2.5, there's going to be a rapid pace. So more slew of announcements, very similar to Cade's we've been seeing at Oracle's and Amazon traditionally has started that trend, Larry couldn't even finish the keynote on Sunday because the announcement stream was so large. No, we have a, you'll see a constant string of releases on a weekly, monthly, quarterly basis. There's just a ton of stuff coming. We have a ton of features to add, we have a ton of interesting new services to add. The pace is fast, you're running hard. The pace is very fast. Well, congratulations and looking forward to following you guys and your success. Love the agile mindset, love to see that cadence of shipping stuff moving really, really fast. Appreciate it, spend the time. Thank you very much. See you on your insights. It's theCUBE live here at Oracle Open World. You're watching theCUBE back with more live coverage here in San Francisco after this short break.

So it's pretty special to be able to You know see them all, you know wish me Merry Merry Christmas and good luck all in one video. So thank you for all the support It's meant the world to me over the years. I couldn't have done it without them and Merry Christmas


Entrepreneurship is as intuitive to me as it is eating an aloo paratha to a Punjabi guy or a, you know, a dosa to somebody in South. Right? So it's just too intuitive to me. I have never planned it. I have not thought about it. I didn't like sit down and search. I had a career choices. It just it just it just so innately driven. Just feel like doing it all the time. I think that's that's that's that's for me on a very personal note back in 2010. I 2008 rather seven, eight, I spent some time in the US was lucky enough to go to Duke University. You know, the best experience of my life completely transformed me 2010 to 2015 started three companies. The first one was Hydenpar. Actually, it was an electricity detection. Didn't it didn't work out really well. Shut that down a year later. Started boopy, which was in location based mobile first hyper local mobile app. Now, think of this. This is in 2013 when Clipkart and Zomato did not have an app that failed to my parents asked me up. And I said, I'm not going to start up. Like I was so low on confidence. So out of drive. So webhav and Garima, Dr. Webhav and Dr. Garima, my co-founders are also my closest friends. They were in that point of time were in the stage of the career when they wanted to practice independently and go out of max. And I was like, yeah, look, I don't understand healthcare, but you are surgeons. I'll get the patient and you do surgery and we'll figure it out. I think that's how this business got started. We started pristine and later we realized that it's a big market unlike unlike you start doing whiteboarding and you see the market is a problem. We said the problem is we'll solve it and we'll do a lot of work and we'll have fun. We ended up realizing it's a big problem. It's a big market and nobody was doing it the way we were doing and we just got deep inside. Today it's been about four years and we are lucky we will do like 150,000 surgeries this year, which is second largest in India. We have served upwards of million plus patients, million to million patients. We have done massive number of surgeries. We are in 40 cities. We have six, 700, you know, hospitals where we work deeply. We have 1000 plus partners. We run 200 clinics. We have like 500 plus surgeons who are active with us, actual counselors are there, but were very active with us, about 500 of them. Team of 2000, very lucky to have been here, so very excited. We have like 150 engineering team, which is probably the largest engineering team in the country in healthcare. And it is led by, you know, an amazing, amazing leader, who has spent time in US, who has spent time in Canada, working with global firms in AI, big data, analytics, technology. So very, very competent leadership also happens to be one of my closest friends, so there's a lot of things. We have 30 plus products and when I say products mean 30 plus software, you know, to just use a very simplistic language, which we have built internally to solve pristine because nobody has solved this problem well, so they don't exist in the market. So we had to build 30 plus products. Let me tell you how it starts. It starts from the first time when a patient reaches out to us. They can reach out to us to online consult, they can reach out to a chat board, a WhatsApp board, various Google plug-ins, and a mobile app. So that's the first.  And it'll tell you at least some very basic information about, hey, looks like this can be problem, you should consult a doctor, it should be okay. The third is then there is the online consult, the consult can happen online or it can happen offline. Then there is the doctor EMR. Every doctor in pristine uses a mobile app and does electronic medical records. Our doctor, our equipment, our patient, our consumers, only the hospital infrastructure we are using. Huge, huge believer in being in India right now, like I, like in Hindustan ka jhanda lehi humte humte humte humte humte humte humte humte. And I'm not being, I mean, I love my country, but it's also very logical. You know, next 10 years, there is going to be somebody who's got a mission, vision, and is willing to get down dirty, work hard, is going to progress tremendously in India, tremendously. And it doesn't matter what field you are in. It doesn't matter if you are in technology or you are in a restaurant or you are in art, you are in journalism, it doesn't matter. You'll be surprised how many of my friends are willing to come back to check their jobs internationally and come back to India, like massive number. You know, I did that at 22.  But then I think there is something which was so motivating to come back and build from ground up. So I truly, truly believe in India. That doesn't mean we don't have challenges. We have a lot of challenges. We are young and we have ambitions. We want to reach out to more people and tell them that, Hey, we're doing something and you should give us a chance. But what you have to imagine is that if you want to buy a mobile cell phone, you talk to three friends, you read all the reviews online, and then you go to a shop and try three phones, right?   What I'm trying to tell you is the seriousness of a patient is a lot more and a marketing gimmick doesn't help it. So the marketing is not for that. For us, marketing is an awareness where we are telling people, Hey, we are there. Please give us a chance. But if we don't do well, they will not come to us.  There is no other health care institution in the world which will give you a care coordinator. So we think of marketing more as an awareness. I think choosing Rithik Roshan, choosing Bamanirani, Prakash Raj, in certain capacities have all, all had a meaning to themselves. We are still in baby steps. We are evaluating, we've evaluated a lot of Southeast Asian, a couple of Middle Eastern African nations. But I think we are in that phase that we are building a use case. So it'll be overstepping of me to come and tell you the country. We have evaluated Indonesia, we have evaluated Kazakhstan, we have evaluated Vietnam, we have evaluated Bangladesh, we have evaluated infinity as well. So we are still, I think, early in our journey, still finding use cases and we are working on medical value tourism. So I think, but we are not 100% sure these are the countries because they are all baby steps. In terms of acquisitions, I think we strongly believe in building a lot of things in house. But when we find a capability, which somebody has built really well and we are behind, we are happy to explore an acquisition. But I think our acquisition, we have explored 50 acquisitions, but for us, real capability and real product or service value is important. But beyond that, founders and team is very important. There are three reasons for IPO, normally for IPO. Either you don't get money from the private market. So you do IPO. We have every week I get to investor reach outs. So today that's not a problem. Secondly, you do IPO because you have to give an exit to investors who have invested in the company. We are still a very young company. We have five years away from it. Thirdly, you do IPO because IPO is an emission of an entrepreneur, builds a bigger brand, establishes trust. So I think for me, right now, the most motivating factor is the third one. We have not set out a date. Like I said, we are only three and a half, four-year-old company. We have scaled fast, but still very young. We are targeting 1000 crore annualized revenue. So let's see after that. No, I know if it would move. It keeps changing. Narayan Mr. Narayan would be a lot. I love that. I love that person. I can sometimes become way more passionate and maybe sometimes overlook softer side of somebody's challenge. So if I have a lot of health, I believe in my mission. I think I can make money, which will get me some influence and some people will know me. So I'll be happy.


The modern lover. The road was heavy with mud. It was labor to move along it. The old wide way forsaken and grown over with grass used not to be so bad. The farm traffic from Coney Gray must have cut it up. The young man crossed carefully again to the strip of grass on the other side. It was a dreary, out of doors track, saved only by low fragments of fence and occasional bushes from the desolation of the large spaces of arable and of grasslands on either side, where only the unopposed wind and the great clouds mattered. Were even the little grasses bent to one another indifferent of any traveler. The abandoned road used to seem clean and firm. Cyril Merchant stopped to look round and bring back old winters to the scene over the ribbed red land and the purple wood. The surface of the field seemed suddenly to lift and break. Something had startled the pee wits and the fallow flickered over with pink gleams of birds white-breasting the sunset. Then the plovers turned and were gone in the dusk behind. Darkness was issuing out of the earth and clinging to the trunks of the elms, which rose like weird statues lessening down the wayside. Merchant labored forwards, the earth sucking and smacking at his feet. In front, the Coney Gray farm was piled in shadow on the road. He came near to it and saw the turnips heaped in a fabulous heap up the side of the barn, a buttress that rose almost to the eaves and stretched out towards the cart ruts in the road. Also, the pale breasts of the turnips got the sunset and they were innumerable orange glimmers piled in the dusk. The two laborers who were pulping at the foot of the mound stood shadow-like to watch as he passed, breathing the sharp scent of turnips. It was all very wonderful and glamorous here in the old places that had seemed so ordinary. Three-quarters of the scarlet sun was settling among the branches of the elm in front, right ahead where he would come soon. But when he arrived at the brow where the hills swooped downwards, where the broad road ended suddenly, the sun had vanished from the space before him and the evening star was white where the night urged up against the retreating rose-colored billow of day. Merchant passed through the style and sat upon the remnant of the thorn tree on the brink of the valley. All the wide space before him was full of a mist of rose nearly to his feet. The large ponds were hidden, the farms, the fields, the far-off coal mine under the rosy outpouring of twilight. Between him and the spaces of Leicestershire and the hills of Derbyshire, between him and all the South country which he had fled was the splendid rose-red strand of sunset and the white star keeping guard. Here, on the lee shore of day, was only the purple showing of the woods and the great hedge below him and the roof of the farm below him with a film of smoke rising up. Unreal, like a dream which wastes a sleep with unrest, was the South and its hurrying to and fro. Here, on the further shore of the sunset with the flushed tide at his feet and the large star flashing with strange laughter, did he himself naked walk with lifted arms into the quiet flood of life. What was it he wanted, sought in the slowly elapsing tide of days? Two years he had been in the large city in the South. There, always his soul had moved among the faces that swayed on the thousand current in that node of tides, hovering and wheeling and flying low over the faces of the multitude like a seagull over the waters, stooping now and again and taking a fragment of life, a look, a contour, a movement to feed upon. Of many people, his friends, he had asked that they would kindle again the smoldering embers of their experience. He had blown the low fires gently with his breath and had leaned his face towards their glow and had breathed in the words that rose like fumes from the revived embers till he was sick with the strong drug of sufferings and ecstasies and sensations and the dreams that ensued. But most folk had choked out... Sample complete. Ready to continue?


In a Facebook survey done in 2016, asking millennials if they trust banks, 92% of them said they do not trust banks. In contrast to this, the blockchain is creating a new form of native digital trust that is significantly absent in existing institutions today. This loss of trust in centralized institutions is one of the hallmarks of many post-industrial societies today. In a world of trusted centralized institutions, few would take interest in a distributed system that requires a paradigm shift in thinking. These token economies are going to gain the trust that is lost from our existing institutions by being more transparent, and the fact that they are auto-enforced by code. Blockchains are a technology of transparency. Public ledger systems let us see all the interactions in the whole system, even if those interactions are anonymous. And this is very different to the world we live in today. The closed nature and misalignment of interests within centralized institutions of today reduces their capacity for transparency.   They don't want others to know about them. Centralized systems create many boundaries that block the flow of information across the whole network, and increase its overall opacity. Gavin Wood, a co-founder of Ethereum, describes well the kind of economy that we have created with centralization when he says, the world is much like a set of walled gardens. Within the garden, you're free to play. You are taken in if you accept the authority of the household that actually owns the garden, but it's very difficult to get between the gardens in reality. This boils down to banks and various financial institutions making it very difficult and timely reconciling transactions that go between them. But the more important thing is that as individuals and small business owners, it's very difficult for us to interact with each other if we don't yet know or trust each other. Instead, we have to go to these guardians of society, these intermediaries, these trusted authorities, the middlemen, in order to interact. When you remove the centralized component in these networks, you also remove the wall around them that they create, which can work to greatly increase transparency across whole networks. By switching to a peer-to-peer model, you switch to a model based upon direct feedback loops between peers. To get that dynamic real-time information feedback loop, you need transparency. The information has to actually flow directly instead of being mediated. By aligning the interests of the network, you can make transparency possible, as people have less of their misaligned incentives to hide from each other. When things are on the blockchain, then everyone can go and audit what has happened. This is like finding bugs in open-source software, where many eyes make all bugs shallow. Part of the problem with centralized systems is that they are vulnerable to a rich-get-richer lock-in effect. The issue with the centralized model is that large organizations get capital easier, greater liquidity, and they get to dictate terms because they are seen to be more efficient and stable. This makes it more difficult for new startups to compete. When the internet started, it was built upon open protocols like email or TCPIP, and everyone was able to create. It was easy to discover websites. That's not true in the internet anymore. Closed networks like Facebook or Twitter are gated communities that use their user data to gain an advantage.  Once a centralized organization of this kind has grown, it is very easy for them to become extractive because it is difficult for people to change providers. Any system that becomes extractive will not want you to know that it is such, and this will again reduce transparency in the system. One of the major challenges faced by organizations today is rapidly escalating complexity within almost all domains. As our environments become more complex, bureaucratic organizations have responded to that by creating more subsystems, more specialized departments and domains. The result being that things have been broken up into these different silos. These silos provide the organization with some of the specialized capabilities for it to respond to the increased complexity within its environment, but at the same time have the effect of locking information about what's going on inside because they don't want to share that information because they are afraid competitors or customers will take advantage. The more complicated things get, the more we basically break things up and the more fractured and siloed the system becomes. The greater the resistance to the overall flow of information within the system and the greater the overall opacity. Blockchain networks enable us to collaborate within large networks, connecting horizontally and replace proprietary technology with open source protocols, greatly increasing transparency on the network. This transparency can be used to reduce risk and uncertainty and thus reduce costs. With the blockchain, because everything is digitally native, we can have the actual information about transactions within the network and we can, for example, lend against that with minimal risk. If there is a smart contract that an organization pays you every month, then you can use that to get a loan against it with minimal risk and thus minimal cost. Also, because these may be smart contracts, you could just adjust those contracts so that the capital is automatically routed to the lender as payback. Also, no one can run away with the money because it is controlled by the network, which reduces risk again.


All right, I think I think we're ready to get started So first who who shot out of bed this morning said I really really want to see more Comcast stuff Yes Well, I'm here to fulfill your dreams. I think I'm actually the last Comcast talk of this summit So so we're gonna we're gonna shut it down after this My name is Charlie bomb. I'm a principal cloud engineer on the application platform acceleration team at Comcast Our team as you may have heard from several my colleagues given talks we're tasked with making developers lies easier developers experience is better and One of the many ways that we do that is by deploying and maintaining large scale rapidly growing cloud foundry environments Specifically, I'm here to talk today about our journey into open-source cloud foundry And specifically the Genesis tool chain that allowed us to finally be successful with deploying and managing an Open-source cloud foundry footprint that provides the user experience our developers were accustomed to with other distributions So we're gonna quickly begin talking about cloud foundry a Comcast You guys may have heard some of this stuff before But it provides some context around the scale size and speed at which we have to operate Which which allows us to move and force us to move into some open source We're gonna talk about why we went open source We're gonna talk about what Genesis is how Genesis specifically helped us and then I'm gonna hopefully push you guys into trying Genesis out and kind of guide you into a first initial deployment So quick overview. We're we're five years into working on with Bosch and cloud foundry a Comcast We currently have 23 foundations nearly half of those 11 of those are open source at this point We operate in private and public cloud. We're mostly VM. We're on-prem, but we do have a little bit of AWS out there And that's expanding we currently run about 40,000 ai's across and about 16 or 17,000 of those are in open source We run 5,000,000 500 million transactions a day. So it's very very high-scale high-demand Who's using CF at Comcast Well, we have several thousand applications in but some of the big ones that you guys have probably heard about or at least know from a product side Xfinity mobile Xfinity home security Comcast business and AI Q which is our virtual assistant and Jason Michener colleague of mine gave a demo of that yesterday in the foundry I hope you guys caught that Great demo there. So why open source? Well Comcast is trying to be and becoming a leader in open source communities We're really working toward that as we've seen in this summit and several others We've as we have established an open source practice led by Nithya Ruff who we saw speak at the keynotes the other day We have an open source fellowship program specifically For working on cloud foundry and upstreaming work into those open source communities and And lastly the demand for cloud foundry pot platform was far exceeding the budget allocations that we had come up with And we had to come up with a way to provide capacity to our developers in a real-cost effective manner So to give you an idea of our growth here We started this is just you know our journey is five years old But just less than three years ago We had about 7,000 AIs and we're now 40,000 plus so that growth is is extensive and we don't see that slowing down anytime soon So why Genesis Earlier in our CF journey During the Bosch one in two days. We made a couple attempts at open source. Yeah, but we didn't really find it sustainable Wasn't really sustainable enterprise friendly solution for the small team specifically that we have running cloud foundry We've seen other talks at previous CF summits that have addressed some of the issues here You know too many manifests to manage too large a manifest to manage No real easy way for secure secrets management and our renewal rotation You know a typical CF deployment is contains at least 19 CAs and 72 certificates So multiply that times are 11 foundations That's a lot of secret certs to manage The manual stitching of all the releases that make up a CF deployment You know numbers in the 20s, maybe pushing 30 for that And that's just CF alone. That doesn't even talk about you know Marketplace services There was real no simple way to create marketplace services that were consistent across all of our platforms The pain of on-boarding some new folks onto a team managing this type of ecosystem We found it very difficult to train people up on on some of the older ways that that open source CF was was deployed and summary it did not allow us to be able to really move quickly and Implement and scale CF as fast as our developers needed us to You know our CF has been growing at tremendous rates. We really needed to be able to respond quickly with a stable repeatable reliable CF paradigm So what is Genesis? Well, no, it's not the Peter Gabriel Phil Collins span from the 70s although land of confusion could really be used to describe a lot of what we were trying to do It is not the project used to make uninhabitable planets habitable in Star Trek the wrath of con although This case in this case the metaphor kind of works and you'll see why in a minute So Genesis is Bosch at scale. That's really the core here. It's secrets management. It's automation built in With concourse CICD Pre-packaged best practices kits And we'll talk about that in a second So what I mean by Bosch at scale Well, this is a typical breakdown of our architecture And Genesis allows us to use like a spoke type architecture model. We're a main Bosch. We call it proto Bosch That's the that's the name you'll see in a lot of the documents For Genesis and and the and the architecture. So we'll use that proto Bosch is deployed and its primary job Is simply to deploy other environment Bosch's So we have a main Bosch that handles that proto Bosch handles multi cloud multi CPI and Cloud config, but only for the Bosch deployments. It's supporting Each of these Bosch environments are sorry each of these environment Bosch directors deploy CF and All accompanying services needed for a CF and this even could even include CF CR So we currently have this architecture scale that to 11 So imagine prod Bosch times 11 and a dev Bosch up there. That's that's us 11 open source cloud foundry both on-prem VMware and public AWS all running with this architecture And I like to think of of proto Bosch sort of like Lord of the Rings, you know, there's one Bosch to rule rule all Bosch's Some so a secrets management some additional deployments from main Bosch proto Bosch Help Genesis live up to its potential one of those arguably the most important is vault Genesis integrates heavily with vault to create and store all secrets to every deployment an environment within this architecture Genesis handles this and creates them all on the fly and is part of the deployment for you All secrets are completely hands-off to the operator with the exception of AWS keys or other as an organization specific credentials and certificates, but for the most part Genesis handles it all and does it all for you Secrets can be rotated and removed and renewed easily using Genesis CLI and Vault is easily deployed with Genesis, and I'll show that in a little bit as well Automation Concourse is another Genesis kit Bosch deployment deployed from proto Bosch This concourse seamlessly handles upgrades to keep all of your environments identical Concourse using this spoke architecture allows you to have a runway Model of upgrades So concourse can push a new CF version or a new Bosch to dev Bosch if you like how that's working testing Okay, click a button push that out the QA Bosch you like that, and then you can click out and proceed to upgrade your The rest of your prod Bosch or CF environments All of these are based on github changes Back up backup integrates into this model as well We use shield shields a core component of this architecture This allows you to back up your vault your concourse your Bosch directors cloud foundry databases blob stores to webdab S3 GCP storage. There's a number of different plugins and features that that you can use to back up what you want where you want So what we're really trying to show here is that you have a central Managed control plane that facilitates the deployment and scaling of Bosch deployments at an enterprise level that that we need So we talked about kits best practices the secret sauce of Genesis is the kits kits are essentially a collection of YAML and Configuration files that provide best practices and defaults for deployments These kits are easily customizable and allow operators to have a say in how things are deployed So the Bosch Genesis operator is dealing with 70 to 20 line Genesis YAML manifests instead of 1200 to 5000 line, you know Bosch CF manifests Genesis handles all the YAML merging replacing and overrides for you Flexibility you can enable disabled features such as at the top of my head high availability DB for cloud foundry You can deploy autoscaler along with cloud foundry. You can create a Cloud foundry for a test demo environment with a small footprint minimal VMs You can do that all with with basic parameters within Within the Genesis manifest you have a lot of control over how your environment Over how your deployment despite the small size of these Genesis manifests Third you can build your own kits This is all fully open source fully available and Genesis has a command line tool to create our own kit and help you walk You through that so you can deploy other Bosch releases. You can deploy your own created in-house Bosch releases with Genesis It's perfectly flexible and available to to use any, you know Bosch deployment that's out there or any built in the house You can create it on kit and then push it to the open source Genesis community to add to that For example Comcast we created the squid Genesis kit We had a need for squid proxy and our product environment So we created a kitten and open source and it's up there and available So maybe you might be thinking won't they be opinionated If we simplify things down to defaults and best practices will they be opinionated? Well, yeah, they will be somewhat opinionated But that works for our favor here because they contain best practices and things that you don't really want to or how To worry about but it's easy to apply your own opinions by overriding defaults and the manifests with parameters or instance groups That will be merged directly into the Bosch manifest that is then deployed I encourage you to check out the Genesis community github repo for a full list of available kits But these are the ones we most like most most rely on so Bosch Genesis kit cloud foundry has a Genesis kit concourse The jump box is kind of integral. I didn't have it on the diagram, but it's essentially a VM Chalk full of every tool you would ever need to manage Bosch concourse cloud foundry shield vault and blacksmith so it's a it's a it's a VM where Instead of having tools and worrying about updating tools or installing tools on your own laptops or new hires laptops Everybody kind of works through a jump box and has common tools There's a blacksmith jump Genesis kit Blacksmith is a service broker that allows us to provide marketplace services such as rabbit reddus rabbit post grass Maria db And then there's a vault Genesis kit Prometheus monitoring kit and a shield Genesis kit for backup So how did Genesis help us? Well aside from all the heavy lifting that Genesis does on our behalf to simplify In scale our Bosch in CF deployments It drastically reduces our time to build out new environments Our initial deployment took some time to get a handle on Once we got our head around that though We were able since able to reduce our time to deploy an environment to less than a day about 16 hours So on the left is hours there so the first one took about 50 hours You know once we got a head around and went down and now we can we can We can kick out a deployment in less than a day So cloud foundry is really the best platform for stateless applications and demand for these services is growing exponentially in Comcast As you saw Genesis helps us quickly turn bare infrastructure into usable capacity for our developers in a simple and repeatable way Genesis also manages our infrastructure for us So we're able to look when we're looking to expand our team. We really focus more on developer centric hires So instead of spending time in Bosch, we're spending time scripting writing improving automating our platforms as Well as helping developers use our platforms more efficiently We really work closely with our developers So it makes sense to hire and have people on our team that have Developer background so we can jump in and look at Java logs look at heap logs look at code and help our folks Use our platform more efficiently Where can I get started well, here's a couple links that we can take a look at Genesis project IO. That's the real main landing page for Genesis Good documentation there unlike some open source projects. I've seen these are these tools are very very well documented The Genesis project I was great documentation on there has blogs has some demos and labs that you can go through good information The Genesis CLI is available at the github.com slash dark and Wayne Genesis community where all the kits are that's under github.com slash Genesis dash community and the safe tool Which I'll talk about in a moment is available sarkin Wayne slash safe So I'm obviously pretty passionate about this and and I'm hoping that some of you get inspired and go try this out And here's how you can kind of get started You can easily test and demo this this ecosystem. Unfortunately. You can't really be done on a local system You really do need some my ass So go grab some you know small chunk of I as some compute couple IP some storage doesn't matter if it's VMware OpenStack AWS Azure GCP whatever get a little bit of get a little bit of resources There's a couple prerequisite tools you'll need to really get started You'll need the Genesis CLI give you a link to that a minute ago Bosch CLI I think everybody knows where to get that spruce which is a yaml merge tool and then safe Safe as a vault wrapper and you're maybe wondering why why do we need a wrapper for vault? Well safe makes extends the capabilities of vault Allows your security to generate some random RSA pairs SSH private private key pairs auto generate random secure passwords securely provide credentials and Genesis requires it So next up fire up an instance of vault You can use a container if you want or even an existing dev test vault instance You could even use safe to create an in-memory instance although it only lives while the terminals open So I'd recommend it may be against that but just fire up an instance of vault could be when you have Target this vault using safe safe documentation is great for this from an empty folder Run Genesis init dash k Bosch What this does is is pre-stage is that folder and as a Genesis? Kit downloads the latest kit. That's on the that's up on github Pulls it down if you navigate to the Bosch deployments directory. You can run Genesis new ops And what that essentially does is it'll take you through a CLI wizard of sorts Asking you for your vault target IS specific information such as IP storage secrets credentials Clusters depending on on your eyes. You'll need to have that stuff available When that wizard is complete You'll have a Genesis manifest that is ready to deploy your first Genesis Bosch So simply run Genesis deploy ops and Genesis will fire up a VM Interacting with the CPI of what you chose in the previous wizard and you'll have a Bosch director ready to go You can then use Genesis to log into that director Once it's actually logged in it's like any other Bosch director you can start uploading releases stem cells Whatever you need to do You can even start creating deployments from This Bosch director using the similar workflow for other kits that you find you'll need to create CPI Cloud configs Genesis doesn't necessarily do that for you But it does handle all the deployments when that's once CPI in cloud configure all configured So this is essentially how Comcast built an architecture That allows a relatively small team to manage and build out cloud foundry at an enterprise scale to meet the growing needs of our developers and As you see in many sides We're big on open source of cloud at Comcast. We do have a hundred four already five currently open source repositories Our biggest win is patchy traffic control, which is part of our CDN Cooper healthy is another one. You can look at all the projects we have and contribute You know Comcast get up to IO And visit us at the booth while we're open the rest of the day I'll be there shortly after this if you guys have any additional questions We're hiring as you're probably well aware Comcast is a great place to work. It allows us to work and cutting edge stuff like this I'm pretty passionate about this stuff. I love this stuff. It works But Comcast also lets you fail and fail as long as you fail fast pick yourself up work on something else And keep moving forward and making sure you're focused on you know developer lives and experiences at least from our side Questions in a two-week period at one point we did three Once once we have basically hardware given to us. So we're mostly VMware But we don't control or manage the VM infrastructure. We essentially say hey, we need hardware when we get it From the minute they say it's ready, which means networks ready storage is ready computes ready We can build it if we start at 8 a.m We can almost have it up online by the end of the day and have people pushing applications in with it so that's how it's repeatable and people on board under our team quickly With this type of architecture Yeah, you can use that to rotate whatever you want you can target pass you can target Deployments you can do you have a lot of a lot of customization there what you can do By by deployment you can say if you're see a deployment Let's say West one rotate on this on this deployment It knows in vault all the past where those sorts are rotates them for you the shield so shield uses the Runtime config so it'll put shield agent wherever you specifically want it and then from a shield gooey You can say backup Bosch director backup bash on my vault based on the agent So postgres file backup whatever whatever it is you're trying to back up all through that all through a Interactive gooey, and there's a CLI to with shield So proto Bosch cloud config has all the IPs for all the Bosch director It's Bosch directors that it deploys and including like jump box shield wall concourse All the Bosch directors you then deploy have their own cloud config that handle all their individual deployments That's me Yeah Right Yeah Well, there's a multi CPI config within the proto and that allows deployment out to And that deploys a Bosch Proto deploys a Bosch director that knows it's going to be deploying to VMWare or it's going to be deployed to AWS That's all built in in the Bosch director itself So you don't have to maintain CPI configs on local on environment Bosch is everything's done in The multi CPI config on proto Bosch that gets pushed out to the Bosch director configurations Right or concourse, which we're you know which we do that as well. Yeah, you just say it goes through that that runway workflow Yeah, so new kits are released, you know regularly, you know look through them test them push them out into your you know The release notes are very thorough about what's changed You know recent changes I think they've moved away from you know console DNS to Bosch DNS So you push it out to QA or dev low environment test it around play with it And then once you're satisfied with that you can set basically a kit number in a manifest In a global manifest and you can start kicking concourse off and it'll deploy out to any ones that you choose Well, like I said, I'll be at the Comcast booth shortly if anybody wants to you know talk further about this stuff Thank you. Thank you for coming appreciate it


My research is in privacy. Privacy used to be a right that you exercise while you're in control of your data. About 50% of youth reported they are lonely, and what's even more devastating is that for about 3% of them this is chronic. The digitization changes our society. What I found out a couple of years ago is actually that my music tastes radically changed after I started using Spotify.


Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome. This is Melissa with the stockswush.com, and I thought I would do a market review here. It's getting into three o'clock, major reversal time. And look at this market. I mean, it is amazing. I take the room today. I went back and I was listening to what I said this morning, although I did remember what I said this morning about the market. But then I went back and I listened to exactly what I said about the market this morning. Because when I see stocks or the market, anything I see in a gap, which is always in the pre-market, I get such a good read on. It's like that time, that space that I am in before 9.30, whenever I get in that space, 8 o'clock, 8.39 o'clock, 7 am, whenever I sit down and I'm in that space and I see the QQQ's the spot and any stock I'm looking at when I see a gap, I'm like so in touch with the market and the stock that I'm watching in a gap in the price action. And what comes out of my mouth just whatever just comes right out of my mouth, which is an instantaneously what I see, which is just the raw Melissa Armo, actually, is usually very extremely, incredibly accurate. So what I said this morning was the market was going to hold. And the market held today. I mean, I don't even know why I'm like surprised at myself. Like, I mean, I read this perfectly. Like, does anyone even listen to anything I say? I mean, I don't even know if anyone, except for me, really understands how incredible that I see these gaps like this. I mean, do you have any idea how many people try to short this market today? Like, tons, OK? First of all, it was very difficult for traders to think to go along the market today. Market trading a very tight range of fact on QQQ's from the highest point of 7-eleven and the low is 106.74. The range for the market today is literally like $0.35, OK? And traders couldn't buy this and they were probably looking to short it. And it never came in, which I said this morning. I mean, when I read the gap this morning, I said, don't expect us to go anywhere. We're not coming in. Like, I said, no matter what the market does today, we're not bearers. Don't expect us to go anywhere. I said, do not expect us to go anywhere. We never went anywhere. We held in the sky after rallying for unteamed days in here. This market is so fantastic. And what I saw this morning in the pre-market and the gap when I looked at the market 10, 15 minutes before the open, whenever I looked at it, was exactly how the market played out today. It was exactly how it played out today. It's all because I know how to read gaps. I mean, that is how I'm able to see this. And the great thing, the amazing thing is that gaps happen in the morning before 9.30. Now, some happen at night and some happen before 9.30. But either way, they're all before 9.30, whether it's at 9 or in the morning. So not only is it great because of the fact that it happens in time for you to decide what to do with the direction of bias of the market or a stock, it gives you time to prepare to see what to do. It's like if you're reading everything on the fly of trying to get the intraday trend and something on the fly every day or trying to get it right with the market, I mean, this is what many people do. This is how many people trade. This is why many people don't make money trading. That's challenging. But I have everything figured out beforehand because I'm able to read the gap. Because I am able to read the gaps in stocks and the market's so well here. And go back and watch my market call that I have in the live room because I take the live room today. The market played out exactly like I thought. I sold a fossil actually, but really, I mean, I think in a live surprise, it's like, does anyone even listen to what I say in the room in the morning? The things that I say about the market in the room in the morning, it's just incredibly accurate. This market is higher. This market's gonna do it this year. Just like I said last year, at the end of the year. Out of strength here. Out of strength. And do you know that people that are short, that are traders that are short this market have still not covered in here? I mean, they have still not covered in here. No one should have ever been short this market. But there are traders that actually did short the market and they are still short the market. And their stop is like at the resistance at 108 or 110 or I don't even know. I mean here, people are not even out of this market short yet and the market is so definitively higher. Yeah, we're just gonna keep going. I mean, there's just, I don't even know why I'm looking at this. I'm telling you though, I'm just saying this though because don't be surprised, which I did say I think the other day in the market video, not this morning, but the other day when I just did a market call. Don't be surprised if we just continue rallying in here. Now I'm not saying we're not gonna pull back at some point, of course we are, but I don't know where that happens. I mean, that may not happen to 110 or something. And then I don't even know what it looks like because I have to just see how we trade here and how we gap every morning. But the market held in the sky today, people made an attempt to short this. If you didn't have a great gap trade like I did this morning, you probably struggled it with because a lot of stocks do tend to trend trade with the market on the day and the market really was neutral slash bullish today. That's how I read this market today. It's neutral slash bullish. Market didn't command people who expected it to, didn't do it. Market didn't really make a new hide today. Well, it did buy three pennies, but it really, the market just held neutral slash bullish. But that's bullish. I mean, it's bullish because of the look of the chart. This is what I'm trying to say. This market is incredibly strong. It's going to continue. It's gonna continue all of 2015, barring unforeseen circumstances like wars or calamities. The market will continue higher and shorts have not covered here. It just happened still even given up on it yet. So what a great call I made in this gap this morning because it was challenging to read, but it's just like what the first thing comes out in my mouth as soon as I see price, I can read it as soon as I see the gap. I just know whoop, there it is. And I just say it. And so I did and we held all day here. We're gonna hold into the close. It's almost three o'clock. What we do here in the next 60 minutes doesn't even matter. Market is strong. I don't know where we got tomorrow morning. Nothing would surprise me. Whether we get down, neutral, up, who knows? I'll see you tomorrow morning when I get up. But there's two more trading days left this week. So that is a lot of time for the market to do something else this week. I'll tell you that. I just won't know until I see the actual gap. So have a great day everyone. If you're interested in information about signing up for the Golden Gap class, email me at Melissa at thestockswush.com. The next Golden Gap class is February 21st and 22nd. You know what's amazing is that I am so in touch with reading price action and gaps. It's not just reading price action. It's reading price action and gaps. Like I said, which I read in the morning. Let's just take this off here. I can show you. This was this morning. Let me just get rid of this here. This is all in the morning. This is what the market was doing. It's just lingering here in the morning. I did not have a fall sleep last night. The amazing thing is I still made incredible calls today. Pre-call I made today in the room followed through, called the market accurately, nailed fossil. And there's only one person in the planet that knows this but I literally did not have an entire night sleep last night. And on top of that, I have been fighting this cold thing. Although I feel better today. So on a lack of sleep and feeling a cold, I traded accurately today with incredible precision. And it's really because I'm just so in touch with gaps in the market. It's like just comes so naturally to me. I just see something and I just know exactly what it's supposed to do and I know exactly what it should do. I know exactly what it's going to do. And I know exactly what it needs to do in order to do this. I know the targets, I know the entries. I see the direction of bias. So it's just, I am just one with price action and gaps in the market. Whether it's the QQQs, the spy, whether it's stocks, whether I have a full night's sleep or not, it just, it is just, I am part of my being actually now. And I have been trading for seven years, but in the scheme of things, it's really not that long of a time. It's long enough that I've gained maturity and experience as a trader, but in the overall scheme of things in life, it's really not that long of a time, but it just goes back to the original thing that I've been teaching people. Get good at something. Get really, really good at something. And really it is gaps. Look at this market. It's going to try to make a new hire into the post. Look at, look at this. Wow. It's day trading. If you're going to be a day trader anyways, Marcus is going to try to make a new hire into the post. Wow, it's three o'clock. Oh yeah, yeah. If we are, we're not going to. We're going to make a new hire over yesterday's time of the post, as I'm seeing this here. Anyways, what was I going to say? Oh, if you want to be a day trader, it's about chunking it out. So you chunk it, chunk it, chunk it. It's not about just staying in things forever and ever and ever and doing a million trades all day. You get the move, you get the momentum move, you get the money move and you chunk it out and you're out. That's it. Your day is done. I mean, that's the proper way to trade. Otherwise it becomes very stressful, tedious, long. You do what you do and you're out. And if you're in swing trading or court trading overnight, you shouldn't be sitting and looking at your trades every day anyways.  So day trading is about playing the momentum moves and they happen in the morning and gaps. That's the way to be consistently profitable. This back and forth, back and forth that people do is why they don't find consistency and profitability. So I really, I really have something special here, which I've always known. I've known it for a long time, but I really, really just nailed everything today and didn't even have a full night's sleep. And it's just, I just realized that I, it's just, it's just a part of me reading gaps. It's just who I am. And the market's gonna make a new hire into the clubs. It's really going to. 10720, 10725-ish, 10750, 108. I wouldn't put it past the market to do anything here. The market could run up a dollar in the next hour, literally. I just see here, I'm just watching this and just seeing us do this. So if you'd like to learn how to trade gaps, email me at melissa at thesoxswitch.com. Again, the next class is February 21st and 22nd. The price of the class is going up as of March 1st to $34.99. You can sign up and pay and register for the class prior to March 1st and do the class in March. I'm just letting everybody know that this is the last class this weekend before the price increase. Otherwise, you're signing up for the class last week of February and you can do it later this year if you choose to. Have a great day, everyone and I'll see you tomorrow.


Hi everyone, we just installed a new roof using Atlas Pinnacle sun shingles on this house. I love the innovation. These shingles have cooling technology from 3M. They reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat than a regular roof. That's not all. The Atlas Pinnacle sun shingles also fight smog. In fact, your roof can be a smog fighting surface with the smog reducing power of two to three trees. That's why over 1.5 million homeowners have trusted Atlas to protect their roofs. Now that's making it right.
