Single planetary gear sets operate under certain laws, five in all, to achieve various drives on vehicles. Let's review the five laws that govern these drives. First, there's neutral, governed by law number one. When there is an input and an output, but no reactionary, the result is neutral. Next is law number two. When the planet carrier is the output, and there is a reactionary, we get gear reduction. This sets our vehicle in motion. After this comes law number three. When the planet carrier is the input, the result is overdrive. Then there's law number four. When the planet carrier is the reactionary, we get reverse. And finally, law number five. When any two members are locked together, the result is direct drive. But for the mobility required today, many vehicles must have more speeds and capabilities at their disposal. One way to get this required mobility is by changing the relative sizes of gear members in a set. To widen the selection of ratios still more, we can use two or more sets in combination. Such combinations called multiple planetary gear sets are typical of certain transmissions. To demonstrate how connecting the sets multiplies ratios, let's use just two sets first. We'll put both sets in reduction. One set has a ratio of three to one, and the other a ratio of four to one. Therefore, we get a total reduction of twelve to one. This is the lowest speed. Now, by putting the small gear set in direct drive and keeping the large one in reduction, we get a total reduction of four to one. This is second speed. By putting the small set in reduction and the large one in direct drive, we get a three to one reduction, or third speed. With both sets of gears placed in direct drive, we get a ratio of one to one with no gear reduction. That's fine for forward, but vehicles have to back up too. How do we get reverse? Well, to our two sets, we could hook up a simple reverse set. With the planet carrier made reactionary by a band, this would give us reverse. We could also transmit forward through the simple reverse set by putting it in direct drive. Actually, such a reverse would be too bulky. Space and weight can be saved by using what is called a compound reverse, which you'll come across in certain truck transmissions. With our compound reverse model, let's keep in mind that this is our front set, this is the intermediate set, and this the reverse unit. To see how this works, let's build up the compound reverse unit step by step. The ring gear of the intermediate set is connected by this shaft to the sun gear of the reverse unit. This connecting shaft is hollow to allow the output shaft to pass through it and connect the planet carrier of the intermediate set to the planet carrier of the reverse unit. We have the planet carriers of these two units connected by the output shaft. And we have the ring gear of the intermediate set connected to the sun gear of the reverse unit. The next thing we add to the reverse unit is its ring gear, which can be held reactionary by a cone type clutch. Now let's follow the flow of power in this compound reverse setup. The sun gear is the input in the intermediate set. The load on the output shaft, which connects to the intermediate planet carrier, makes it the reactionary. With this planet carrier reactionary, the intermediate ring gear will move in a direction opposite to that of the sun gear, which is driving. This gives us the reverse movement we want. This reverse movement of the intermediate ring gear is transmitted by this connecting shaft to the sun gear of the reverse unit. By making the ring gear of the reverse unit reactionary, the planet carrier becomes the output and follows the direction of the sun gear, which is driving. The reverse planet carrier transmits the reverse through the output shaft to the wheels. That's pretty complicated, so let's look at it again. Remembering that the reverse actually takes place in the intermediate set with the input of the sun gear. The planet carrier, controlled by the load on the output shaft, causes the ring gear to turn in a reverse direction. The ring gear transmits this movement to the reverse unit's sun gear. Locking the ring gear in the reverse unit gives the reverse planet carrier, which is now the output, no other course but to follow the sun gear's reverse direction. Thus the output shaft and the wheels also turn in reverse, and our vehicle backs up. We can also go forward by releasing the reverse unit from the hookup. We place the intermediate set in reduction and keep the front set in reduction. The flow of power is then allowed to pass right through the reverse unit, which is now just going along for the ride as it does in all forward speeds. Talk about going along for the ride. In this truck the driver might be doing just that because the combination of planetary gears and hydraulic controls does most of his work for him. We can get even greater variations in output ratios by adding another source of power to the planetary gear setup, giving us two inputs. One input is used to drive one of the gear members, the ring gear in this case. This input is run at a fixed speed. The other input is hooked up to the sun gear, and its speed can be varied. First let's rotate the sun gear in the same direction as the ring gear, which maintains its fixed speed. By the use of indicators we will see the various speeds. The first indicator is connected to the ring gear. The speed of the ring gear will not change. The second indicator is connected to the sun gear. The sun gear speed can be varied. The third indicator is connected to the output. Now let's increase the speed of the sun gear. This results in variation of the output speed. The faster we drive the sun gear in the same direction as that of the ring gear, the greater will be the output speed. The output speed always stays between the two input speeds. No matter how we vary the sun gear speed, the output always stays between the two input speeds. Now let's see what takes place when we rotate the sun gear counter to the ring gear's direction. We'll keep the ring gear speed constant and vary the sun gear speed. The direction of the member with the faster tooth speed, that means the greater number of teeth passing a given point, is the direction that the planet pinions will follow. Consequently, that's the direction the output shaft will take. Increasing the counter rotation of the sun gear slows down the output speed. When both input tooth speeds are equal, the output shaft stops. By increasing the speed of the sun gear still further, its tooth speed goes beyond that of the constant input and pulls the planet carrier with it, causing the output shaft to reverse its direction. We can see that giving planetary gear sets two inputs instead of one widens their possibilities, making them especially useful in driving tanks. For instance, this tank uses the two input principle on its two planetary gear sets, one for each track. A mechanism called the differential controls the speeds of the second inputs and facilitates steering by transferring power from one track to the other. In this way, the steering differential permits one output to be speeded up while the output on the other track is retarded. We can even make the tracks go in opposite directions and give us a pivot turn, like this tank about facing in its own length. Look how easy and effortless driving can be with hydraulically controlled planetary gear sets. Just a slight push of the wobble stick to the right and 50 tons of steel obediently turn in that direction. Any movement of the wobble stick gets a response from the tank because it hydraulically controls clutches and bands inside the transmission, with practically no more effort than was used to apply the clutches and bands on the model. No matter how complicated the hookup of the actual planetary gear sets may appear, just remember that basically it's only a number of simple sets arranged together. So if you understand simple planetary gears and know the five rules that govern them, multiple planetary gear sets should give you no trouble.


Greetings and welcome to the Astronomy Picture of the Day podcast. Today's picture for March 25th of 2024 is titled Sonified, the jellyfish nebula supernova remnant. So what do we see here? Well here we see the remnant of a supernova out in space. Now a supernova occurs when a star explodes and expels material out into space and that's what we're seeing here is the expansion of that material. However, you'll note that this is actually a video and I'm going to play it in a moment and what it is is it is turned into sound. So how can you understand this if you're not seeing the image? Well we can convert the different colors to different tones of sound and that's what you'll see is a line passing through from top to bottom of the image and it is going to convert the different colors into sounds using the sound of a drop of water in honor of the jellyfish nebula so water being appropriate there. Now when we see the reddish glow we're going to get a low tone green is going to give you a middle tone and blue is going to give you a relatively high tone and those correspond in this image to different colors. So the x-ray is in the blue and again that will be the very high pitch the optical is in the red which will be the lower pitch and the radio waves will be in the green colors and that will be the middle pitch. So as we play that we'll be able to sear a little bit of what the nebula would be like using that kind of coding. So let's go ahead and play the video here for a minute and then we'll see what we get. As you've heard there are different tones that occur over the course of about the 30 seconds it takes to play through the video and for the line to scan from the top to the bottom of an image. So a way to be able to understand the image to some extent even if you cannot see the image. Now here we see this as again a supernova remnant which is slowly dispersing out into space that material has been expanding for tens of thousands of years and that material will eventually dissipate. At the center there is a neutron star which forms when a massive star collapses inward on itself forming a very dense core about the size of a city and that will remain forever. So that will stay there for the rest of the time that the universe is around. So here we get to see an example of sonification I should say see and hear an example of sonification turning a visual image into sound. So that was our picture of the day for March 25th of 2024. It was titled sonified the jellyfish nebula supernova remnant. We'll be back again tomorrow for the next picture previewed to be Comet Tales. So we'll see what that is about tomorrow and until then have a great day everyone and I will see you in class.


The Narcissist is spying on you. If you were a good source of supply to the Narcissist, they are not just going to let you go. They are not just going to forget about you. When you try to move on from them, they will still be watching you. They will still be spying on you. They will be looking at, that will observing you attentively over a long period of time. They will be keeping you under careful protective or secret observation. They will follow you closely and maintain an interest in you. They will be looking out for you. They will be on the alert for you. And this isn't just something they do in their spare time. This is something that they do full time. It becomes a lifestyle for them. It becomes a way in which they live. There is always something triggering in their minds. There is always something that they have read, seen or heard, which then causes them emotional distress. It causes them anxiety, sorrow or pain. Where they then have to act on these thoughts and feelings in an attempt to relieve them by returning to the perceived source of their anxiety, sorrow or pain. They don't self reflect or look within. So the only other way for them to resolve these painful emotions is by returning to you. Checking in on what you are doing or harassing you. This is how they medicate. This is how they try to treat their condition by using you as their drug. But it never heals or cures their condition. It might mask their symptoms. It might give them entertainment or amusement. But soon enough the anxiety, sorrow or pain comes back again. And that is why they have to keep returning to you. That is why they continue to spy on you. They continue to watch you. They have to keep returning to you to treat the symptoms of their condition. But it never heals or cures their condition. It only masks the symptoms. That is why it never goes away. That is why they have to keep returning to you. The only way for them to really heal or cure their condition is through self-reflection or going within. But as we know, that is something the narcissist is never going to do. Their disorder is designed to block or deny any form of self-reflection. That is why they deny, project, blameshift and gaslight. These are all their attempts of avoiding self-reflection. That is why they cannot stop returning to you. They cannot stop spying on you. It becomes a sickness. And the only way that they can find temporary relief is by spying on you. As long as they know what you are doing. As long as they know where you are or who you are with. It provides them with some relief. They feel as though they have some level of control over the situation. If they cannot keep track of you, they begin to suffer from anxiety, sorrow and pain. They become depressed. They become envious and jealous. They feel as though someone or something is taking you away from them. In their minds you are their possession, their property. You belong to them. They feel that they own you. They feel that they have the right to control you. They feel that they should have the power to influence or direct your behaviour and the course of events. They feel that they should determine your behaviour or supervise your actions or movements. Because in their minds you are their possession. You are their property. You are an object that exists to serve them. You are their medication. You exist to relieve their symptoms of anxiety, sorrow and pain. To make them feel as though they exist. To make them feel as though they are not alone. In their minds that is your duty. That is your purpose. And if you are trying to divert or change course from the duty or purpose that they have established for you. They feel that they have the right to spy on you. They have the right to watch you. Because in their minds you are just an object. And they don't see you as though you have feelings of your own. They don't see you as having wants, needs or desires of your own. In their minds you are just an object. A tool that is faulty or not working correctly. They don't care about you. They don't have your best interest in mind when they are spying on you. All they care about is their own selfish needs and what you can do for them. All they care about is their overwhelming feelings of envy and jealousy. Relieving the symptoms of their disorder. And that is why they keep returning to you. That is why they continue to spy on you. Thank you for watching. I hope this video resonated with you. Please like, comment, share and subscribe.

To start building a C-Sharp project in Visual Studio 2017, go to File, New, Project, or if you prefer short key, Control-Shift-N. Now, under Templates, make sure that you've selected Visual C-Sharp and select a console application. In this case, I'm selecting the console app with .NET Core. I'm going to give it the name of Hello World. I'm going to click OK. In Program.cs, you will see a simple console application that will print Hello World when you run it. You can run this application in debug mode by clicking the Start button. Wow, that was really fast. I highly doubt that you saw Hello World. To see Hello World in command prompt, you can try one of these options. You can run your code without invoking the debugger by hitting the short keys, Control-F5, and there it is. That's Hello World. I'm going to press any key to continue. You can also keep the console window open in debug mode by including user input. For example, I'm going to have the user enter any key to exit the application, similar to what we saw without debugging. I'm going to put another console right-line. We get really good intelligence here. Enter a key to exit. Then I'm going to add another line to my code. That's going to ask for a key. I'm going to select Read Key, and I'm going to close that up.  By adding the Read Key method, we are able to easily see our C-Sharp Console application in Command Prompt. Now I'm going to hit the Enter key to exit the application. Thanks so much for watching and continue to use Visual Studio.


and you're welcome hey guys now no so if you got a twitch prime token just sitting there doing that be nice if you can use it here at twitch.televisionslash1a you can use it here yeah you can yes you can mine mayor two months of robots on some level chat thank you so much for the support dude welcome thank you back thank you back thank you back are you in position yeah about that seriously i got stuck with patrol duty i'm not a freelancer i can't just tell the commander to shove off all right talon's a popular guy i got a sniper oh he shot me with a asset and now he's toast i kill me with a sniper that can i need more bodies oh crap i don't see him these guys are all scrambling nothing check this writer maybe it'll have another lead it's a map what no it takes a long time to switch weapons like if i do boo boo boo boo boo that goes just bring it to me i was doing that for a while by the way but i think the squishy guys you can just like shoot in between them mine you can shoot in between them and they'll kill like three dudes at one three four you're right though i should soften them up more especially the guys with the shields and i'm at the missionary don't transport me overheat it looks like squiggles to me wait how do you know what happened to the sound oh that's her there i thought she was on patrol duty is there one nearby there is actually sending it now i've never been so attracted to chevron since battlefield chat oh tight we found the strider who's been ambushed by titan today's not a good day for striders not good kills here oh crap you just gotta find a way inside without a kill here that's always the love three's right check the wreckage for a replacement gotta hate fighting these dudes because of those balls it without the balls is not that bad next time he summons those elementals i'll uh i'll not do that again don't know how to deal with those balls the pain it's painful to be here that's right if it happens again she'll catch up with a broken clock wow i have never heard that expression let's see who gets there first i've never heard that expression it'll be fine she'll catch up with a broken clock chat gotta use that somehow too late she's she's special chat i'm not talking about the good kind of special hey how do i get up there through the power portal without the drops defenses to reach him yes more kills please i need bodies yes there's three don't kill him yet see that i'm so badass watch your six you mean yeah again she actually said it twice oh i don't have any bullets switching back that's got a hunger for the action chat i guess some more kills for this deficit me first me first no y'all got to wait my mind me me i don't like this screen i see a lot of not ready's uh that's an awkward pause let's kick him in the face and take it i know talent give me can't burn that thing in two seconds the talent give you permission to burn it okay why does talent even want that journal because it's a treasure map all those missing people carry why is he walking like that jungle and when i find him you shouldn't have chased me danks you shouldn't have robbed me talon is what i do you hired these people that's how they got your journal it's hard to do background checks out here besides talent used to be a sentinel and now he's been reduced to this and you die first what a dummy what why would you toss it like that chat i'm going to reach way back yeah is that your hand no it's mine move it now which way did talon go commander how'd you find us i followed the smoke passed by what was left of your javelin i can explain no you're done there's someone waiting at fort tarsus to take you home commander wait this journal belonged to my aunt it can solve the mystery of the emerald abyss i'll take that how much is the worst hey give it back consider yourself lucky that you still have a javelin freelancer let the boss of me at least talent doesn't have the journal he doesn't need it anymore just didn't want you to have it wait i'm looking at the back of a head yet so far ahead you should just give up give up yeah not what i do good like ranger that's my current main one i'm using so i like it get that delicious xp that i need new javelin wait i already unlocked all of them i thought oh i got a rare i got 20 frosts though all right uh i don't think i want to change anything now let me now be a quest confusion when i get back to town you ready to go to the heart of rage no you need to do the side quest that you need to do before the heart of rage dax has been escorted to her apartment should i patch it through go ahead fey fey's right there by the way but we still need to work on your whispering skills what i'm like a rabbit in the night uh huh does wool still have the journal as far as i know try to get back but he says i can't be trusted with that book of nonsense you might have more luck though it's worth a shot always the big reason i could just finish the game right now and go do the heart of rage but um i think would make that kind of mark i need the levels i'm like under level because i've already skipped a big portion of the quest i didn't want to but bugs kind of happen give me the journal commander no no no i will not release kardea del's journal into your custody i didn't realize the book was under arrest do i seem like i'm joking i honestly couldn't say you're kind of hard to read but i do feel for you commander working with dax she's a handful she's an impulsive untrained thrill seeker who's going to get herself killed and i'll be blamed for it not me more if she's been recalled home dax is no longer your problem i guess that's true so there's no harm in giving me the journal your ass is covered never underestimated daxia del's propensity for trouble i'm willing to take the risk then you're braver then you look freelancer i don't know what happened hey dax i've got the journal perfect timing just bid farewell to my not so gilded cage this means to the ball oh wait is she actually gonna be there so i mean she's technically back there are they gonna put fey in two spots oh boy we're gonna have a two fey oh we got two feys chat here it is the elusive journal let's recap what we know before her disappearance my aunt was in the midst of charting the locations of volatile shaper relics near fort tarsis it looks like they formed a circle guess what's at the epicenter the heart of rage yep when the heart of rage appeared it created a ripple effect causing relics far and wide to go crazy like people vanishing into thin air crazy that was the theory aunt cardea disappeared before she could prove it from his notes it looks like talon agreed with her his notes he defaced my family heirloom focus dax what does talon say he thinks activating certain relics will lead him to wherever the caravan vanished but instead of bringing all their remains he's gonna steal their stuff freelancer my aunt everyone who disappeared they deserve better activating the relics will be tricky and i should point out this is all theory we don't really know what will happen who's talking about plenty of shapers stuff before there's a voice coming from someone hasn't killed us yet who could it be yes my javelin's pretty big depth but it'll still fly let me know when you're ready and i'll meet you outside the wall okay all right so fey you're gonna teleport back over here so she teleported and then she's gonna be standing in front of the javelin and they're gonna be ready to go to the heart of rage but we're not i feel so unique i'm probably not the first person to do this i mean the worst thing you know you're sure there's other people who who are doing the quest out of order somehow and skip and skip and do this once we finish the story chat i'm gonna really go to town on the fashion i'm gonna i'm gonna get serious about it i'm gonna go with two tones three colors i might i might throw in a third i don't know i think two tones look really nice and that happened first dc of the day let's run really fast thank goodness we have this new sprint i can get back over here in no time look at me go gotta go fast at the sanic gotta go fast we do this again and skip and skip oh yeah yeah yeah i should stand i think antham will last approximately 138 days and i think it is worth buying the dc again hey we didn't get dc if talent's correct you'll need to activate them in a particular order let's help he's smarter than he looks you should have asked us back in the fort but yes there is pdo let's stop that from happening to us um nothing but according to our chorea the disappearances have been close together last one on record was a month ago so we should be safe should being the key word there the first relic is bigger than expected yeah mine looks like a massive valve hey what now hold on i'm picking up volatile energy readings below same for dax i think you need to silence it in order to activate the valve okay how do i do that look for a smaller relic it should is it this glowy valve thing yes dax looks glory actually it already did that we need to find fragments on it we have freelancer first dax well we're still here i think not seeing any major changes yet the talent has two more relics marked i'm sensing similar volatile energy at the structure's base must be another relic dax you remember what to do gather the shiny bits and reassemble them on the glowy valve thing closer so more scars scars again all right there anywhere you are i don't want any of the closest that's all 32 done she's helped me chat


Sell in May and go away. It's an old adage for the traditional market. And what I wanna do today is do a recap of if that is applicable to our market. So why don't we just do that all the time? Just sell in May, go away. I don't think you should, and here's why. And the things that we talk about here are gonna be applicable to 2023, 24 and 25. Here's what it said. Markets have tended to return closer to 1% over the May to October period. It's important to note this rule does not hold up each year, just on average. Even if it returns at 1% of the summer months, it's still positive, right? So why don't we just do it? There's a little caveat, which all comes down to the time or the cycle of years.


Live from San Jose in the heart of Silicon Valley. It's theCUBE, covering DataWorks Summit 2018. Brought to you by Hortonworks. Welcome back to theCUBE's live coverage of DataWorks Summit here in San Jose, California. I'm your host, Rebecca Knight, along with my co-host, James Kobelius. We're joined by Rob Bearden. He is the CEO of Hortonworks. So thanks so much for coming on theCUBE again, Rob. Thank you for having us. So you just got off of the keynote on the main stage. The big theme is really about modern data architecture. So we're going to have this modern data architecture. What is it all about? How do you think about it? What's your approach? And how do you walk customers through this process? Well, there's a lot of moving parts and enabling data architecture. One of the first steps is what we're trying to do is unlock the silo transactional applications and to get that data into a central architecture so you can get real-time insights around the inclusive data set. But what we're really trying to accomplish then within that modern data architecture is to bring all types of data, whether it be real-time streaming data, whether it be sensor data, IoT data, whether it be data that's coming from a connected car across the network, and to be able to bring all that data together in real-time and give the enterprise the ability to be able to take best-in-class action so that you get a very prescriptive outcome of what you want. So if we bring that data under management from point of origination and out on the edge and then have the platforms that move that through its entire lifecycle, and that's our HDF platform, gives the customer the ability to, after they capture it, at the edge, move it and then have the ability to process it. As an event happens, a condition changes, various conditions come together, have the ability to process and take the exact action that you want to see performed against that, and then bring it to rest. And that's where our HDP platform comes into play, where then all that data can be aggregated so you can have a holistic insight and have real-time interactions on that data. But then, it then becomes about deploying those data sets and workloads on the tier that's most economically and architecturally pragmatic. So if that's on-prem, we make sure that we were architected for that on-prem deployment, or private cloud, or even across multiple public clouds simultaneously and give the enterprise the ability to support each of those native environments. And so, we think hybrid cloud architecture is really where the vast majority of our customers today and in the future are going to want to be able to run and deploy their applications and workloads, and that's where data plane service offering gives them the ability to have that hybrid architecture and the architectural attitude to move workloads and data sets across each tier transparently to where that, what storage file format that may be or where that application is, and we provide all the tooling to mask the complexity from doing that. And then we ensure that it has one common security framework, one common governance through its entire lifecycle and one management platform to handle that entire lifecycle of data. And that's the modern data architecture that's be able to bring all data under management, all types of data under management, and manage that in real time through its lifecycle till it comes at rest and deploy that across whatever architecture tier is most appropriate financially and from a performance on cloud or prem. Rob, this morning at the keynote here in day one at DataWorks Center, Jose, you presented this whole architecture that you described in the context of what you call hybrid clouds to enable connected communities and with HDP, Portland Works Data Platform 3.0 is one of the prime announcements. You brought containerization into the story. Could you connect those dots? Containerization connected communities and HDP 3.0? Well, HDP 3.0 is really the foundation for enabling that hybrid architecture natively and what it's done is it's separated the storage from the compute and so now we have the ability to deploy those workloads via a container strategy across whichever tier makes the most sense and to move those application and data sets around and to be able to leverage each tier in the deployment architectures that are most pragmatic. And then what that lets us do then is be able to bring all of the different data types whether it be customer data, supply chain data, product data. Imagine as an industrial piece of equipment is an airplane is flying it from Atlanta, Georgia to London and you want to be able to make sure you really understand how well is that each component performing so that if that plane's going to need service when it gets there, it doesn't miss the turnaround and leave 300 passengers stranded or delayed. Right, now with our connected deployment we have the ability to take every piece of data from every component that's generated and see that in real time and let the airlines make that in real time and ensure that we know every person that touched it and looked at that data through its entire life cycle from the ground crew to the pilots to the operations team to the service folks on the ground to the reservation agents and we can prove that if somehow that data's been breached that we know exactly at what point it was breached and who did or didn't get to see it and can prevent that because of the security models that we put in place. That relates to compliance with mandates such as the Global Data Protection Regulation GDPR in the EU. At DataWorks Berlin a few months ago you laid out, Hortonworks laid out a renouncing new product called the Data Steward Studio to enable GDPR compliance. Can you give our listeners now who may not have been following the Berlin event a bit of an update on Data Steward Studio how it relates to the whole data lineage or set of requirements that you're describing and then going forward, what is Hortonworks' roadmap for supporting the full governance life cycle for the connected community from data lineages through like model governance and so forth. You can just connect a few dots that would be helpful. Absolutely. What's important certainly driven by GDPR is the requirement to be able to prove that you understand who's touched that data and who has not had access to it and that you ensure that you're in compliance with the GDPR regulations which are significant but essentially what they say is you have to protect the personal data and attributes of that data of the individual. And so what's very important is that you've got to be able to have the systems that not just secure the data but understand who has that accessibility at any point in time that you've ever maintained that individual's data. And so it's not just about when you've had a transaction with that individual but it's the rest of the history that you've kept or the multiple data sets that you may try to correlate to try to expand your relationship with that customer and you need to make sure that you can ensure not only that you've secured their data but then you're protecting and governing who has access to it and when and as importantly that you can prove in the event of a breach that you had control of that and who did or did not access it because if you can't prove in a breach that it was secure and that no one breached it or accessed it that it's not supposed to you can be opened up for hundreds of thousands of dollars or even multiple millions of dollars of fines just because you can't prove that it was not accessed. And that's what the variety of our platforms you mentioned Data Studio as part of Data Plane is one of the capabilities that gives us the ability that the core engine that does that is Atlas and that's the open source governance platform that we developed through the community that really drives all the capabilities for governance that moves through each of our products, HTTP, HDF, then of course in Data Plane and Data Studio takes advantage of that and how it moves and replicates data and manages that process for us. One of the things that we were talking about before the cameras were rolling was this idea of data-driven business models, how they are disrupting current contenders, new rivals coming on the scene all the time. Can you talk a little bit about what you're seeing and what are some of the most exciting and maybe also some of the most threatening things that you're seeing? Sure, you know in the traditional legacy enterprise it's very procedural driven. You think about classic and core ERP. It's worked very hard to have a very rigid, very structural procedural order to cash cycle that has not a great deal of flexibility and it takes through a design process that builds product that then you sell product to a customer and then you service that customer and then you learn from that transaction different ways to automate or improve efficiencies in your supply chain, but it's very procedural, very linear. And in the new world of connected data models and you want to bring transparency and real-time understanding and connectivity between the enterprise, the customer, the product and the supply chain and that you can take real-time best-in-practice action. So for example, you understand how well your product's performing. Is your customer using it correctly? Are they frustrated with that? Are they using it in the patterns and the frequency that they should be if they are going to expand their use and buy more and if they're not, how do we engage in that cycle? How do we understand if they're going through a re-review and another buying of something similar that may not be with you for a different reason? And when we have real-time visibility to our customer's interaction, understand our product's performance through its entire life cycle, then we can bring real-time efficiency with linking those together with our supply chain into the various relationships we have with our customers. To do that, it requires the modern data architecture of bringing data under management from the point it originates, whether it's from the product or the customer interacting with the company or the customer interacting potentially with our ecosystem partners, mutual partners, and then letting the best-in-practice supply chain techniques make sure that we're bringing the highest level of service and support to that entire life cycle. And when we bring data under management, manage it through its life cycle and have the historical view at rest and leverage that across every tier, that's when we get these high-velocity, deep transparency and connectivity between each of the constituents in the value chain and that's what our platforms give them the ability to do. I remember your platform, you guys have been in business now for I think seven years or so you shifted from being in the minds of many and including your own strategy for being the premier data at rest company in terms of a Hadoop platform to being one of the premier data in motion companies. Is that really where you're going to be more of a completely streaming focused solution provider in a multi-cloud environment? I hear a lot of Kafka in your story now that's like, oh yeah, that's right, Hortonworks is big on Kafka. Can you give us just a quick sense of how you're making that shift towards low latency, real-time streaming, big data or small data for that matter with embedded analytics and machine learning? So we have evolved from certainly being the leader in global data platforms for all the work that we do collaboratively in and through the community to make Hadoop a enterprise viable data platform as the ability to run mission-critical workloads and apps at scale, ensuring that it has all the enterprises from security and governance and management. But you're right, we have expanded our footprint aggressively and we saw the opportunity to actually create more value for our customers by giving them the ability to not wait till they bring data under management to gain an insight because in that case they're having to be reactive, post-event, post-transaction. We want to give them the ability to shift their business model to being interactive, pre-event, precondition. The way to do that we've learned was to be able to bring the data under management from the point of origination and that's what we use Minify and I-Fi for and then HDF to move it through its lifecycle and to your point, take prescript, we have the analyte, we have the insight and then we have the ability then to process the best in class outcome based on what we know the variables are we're trying to solve for. Is that happening? And there's a word, the phrase acid, which of course is a transactional data about paradigm plan. I hear that all over your story now in streaming so what you're saying is that it's a completely enterprise grade streaming environment from end to end for the new era of edge computing is that, would that be a fair way of character? That's very much so and our modeling strategies always then bring the other best in class engines for what they do well for their particular dataset. Couple of examples of that, one you brought up Kafka another is Spark and they do what they do really well but what we do is make sure that they fit inside an overall data architecture that then embodies their access to a much broader central dataset that goes from point of origination to point of rest on the whole central architecture and then benefit from our security governance and operations model being able to manage those engines. So what we're trying to do is eliminate the silos for our customers and having siloed datasets that just do particular functions. We give them the ability to have an enterprise modern data architecture. We manage the things that bring that forward for the enterprise to have the modern data driven business models by bringing the governance, the security, the operations, ensure that those workflows go from beginning to end seamlessly. Here, go ahead. So I was just going to ask about the customer concern. So here you are, you've now given them this ability to make these real time changes. How, what's sort of next? What are their, what's on their mind now and what do you see as the future of what you want to deliver next? Right. Well, first and foremost, we got to make sure we get this right. And, you know, we really bring this modern data architecture forward and make sure that we truly have, you know, the governance correct, the security model's correct. You know, one pane of glass to manage this and really enable that hybrid data architecture and let them leverage the cloud tier where it's architecturally and financially pragmatic to do it and give them the ability to leg into a cloud architecture without risk of either being locked in or misunderstanding where the lines of demarcation of workloads or data sets are and not getting the economies or efficiencies they should. And we saw that with data points. So we're working very hard with the community, with our ecosystem and strategic partners to make sure that we're enabling the ability to bring each type of data from any source and deploy it across any tier with a common security governance management framework. So then what's next is now that we have this high velocity of data through its entire lifecycle on one common set of platforms, then we can start enabling the modern applications to function and we can go look back into some of the legacy technologies that are very procedural based and are dependent on a transaction or an event happening before they can run their logic to get an outcome because that grinds the customer in post-world activity. We want to make sure that we're bringing that kind of, for example, supply chain functionality to the modern data architecture so that we can put real time inventory allocation based on the patterns that our customers go in and either how they're using the product or frustrations they've had or success they've had and we know through artificial intelligence and machine learning that there's a high probability not only they will buy or use or expand their consumption, whatever they have of our product or service, but it will probably, to these other things as well, if we do those things. Correctly. Predictive logic as opposed to procedural, yes, AI. And very much so. And so it'll be bringing those that, you know, what's next will be the modern applications on top of this that become very predictive and enable versus very procedural post-event, post-transaction. We're a little ways downstream. That's looking out. That's next year's conference. That's probably next year's conference, please. Well, Rob, thank you so much for coming on theCUBE. It's always a pleasure to have you. Thank you all both for having us and thank you for being here and enjoy the summit. We're excited. Thank you. I'm Rebecca Knight for Jim Kobielus. We will have more from DataWorks Summit just after this.


Up early in the a.m. Ready to play ball. Let's go brew crew Let's give these Cincinnati Reds an L and get a job for you. Let's go brewers


This is Witch Based News for Friday the 9th of April 2021 I'm CMDR Buur In this weeks news Phase 2 of the Odyssey Alpha arrives Bits of Phase 3 of the Odyssey Alpha arrive In the main game the Adamastor breadcrumb trail starts up again There's a trailer for a new Elite Dangerous Comedy series And turning the wheel completes its first major milestone If you enjoy this video hit like and subscribe And remember to click the little bell icon and select all notifications As that stuff really helps the channel And if you'd like to further support our work you'll also find us on Patreon Links to everything you need are in the description below Phase 2 of the Odyssey Alpha test arrived this week And as well as a raft of fixes and tweaks to what we'd been experiencing for the last week It also added features new to the test As well as being the owner of a shiny new Cobra Mark III And having 300,000 credits in the bank Commanders in the Alpha can now buy ships and SRVs And travel within a 20 light year bubble And buy the Dominator Combat Suit Aside from no longer being restricted to the Adachian system And forced to use Apex shuttles to move around however The real headliner is the addition of surface combat zones And the frontline solution system The drop was preceded by a short video from Frontier Detailing how the combat zones function and how to access them And they are exactly what they sound like The planetary surface equivalent of the usual space based combat zones That we've become used to They function however completely differently In tone they feel somewhat like the more mainstream First person shooter experiences like Battlefield or Call of Duty But with the addition of shields, spaceships and SRVs But that description really does what Frontier have achieved here A serious disservice Rather than being restricted to an invisible walled arena Like other team and objective based FPS experiences The Elite Dangerous Odyssey combat zones exist As part of the main game world You can wander into and out of them when going about your business You can essentially arrive at an installation And it just happens to be under attack by two opposing forces To take the Battlefield, Battlefront or Call of Duty style experience And put it in the middle of a fully simulated planetary system Let alone a galaxy And then attach socio-political trade And all manner of other BGS detail changing ramifications To your faction's performance in that battle Is nothing short of extraordinary Rather than the standard conversations in an FPS pregame Where players might be exchanging quips about the coming battle Saying oh I like this map, it's a night one The combat zones of Elite Dangerous Odyssey Are just centered around the installations within a system Which could be anyone of dozens of different types They'll be subject to the localised conditions of the Stellar Forge On a planetary scale at least So that gravity and atmospheric conditions will be different From planet to planet And they'll be in daylight or night time Or indeed dawn or dusk or everything in between If that's what the local stars are doing at that particular moment Indeed you could even be subjected to a stunning planetary rise By a local ringed gas giant Just like everywhere else in Elite If that is what is happening in the star system That you're in at that particular moment In a few short hours since the combat zones arrived We've already seen footage of a lone soldier on foot Taking down a Cobra Mark 3 That wouldn't leave them well alone And we've likewise seen an unopposed SRV Roll into a combat zone and lay waste to the surrounding soldiery With the turret gun It's often said here in the pit that Inside Elite Dangerous Frontier Does what we like to call subtle cinematic Very well It's not usually scripted out Or held in an isolated cutscene That you're forced to watch But it happens around you as a result of the game Not because of you being present in the game The burning stations entering a Thargoid structure Watching traffic at a busy star port Or just a beautiful sunrise over a distant world Arriving at the combat zones Or indeed just watching without participating Is a new experience to be added to that list Reminiscent of movies like Aliens or Starship Troopers The Odyssey combat zones are constantly attended By wave after wave of vulture dropships Literally dropping commanders and NPC soldier respawns Into the battle If you've no interest in participating in the combat zones And I can understand that That kind of gameplay is not for everyone I implore you at the very least to visit one yourself Don't sign up for it Just fly yourself to it Perch nearby, they won't bother you And just watch the ensuing chaos It's incredible And this is only the alpha test As part of the Phase 2 launch yesterday frontier Accidentally let the Artemis suit And the plasma weapons into the game as well The unintentional release was quickly removed But not before a few early arrivals noticed And managed to try them out As a result we got our first tentative look At the functioning handheld biological sampler That comes as part of the Artemis exploration suit We've linked to a video below That shows the device in action But in summary Like the other tools in the game It has two modes One appears to produce a sort of ground based version Of something between a ship born discovery scanner And the core mining pulse And the other Used for actually sampling Initiates a kind of mini game Of a similar style to the subsurface mining experience Where you're matching rotating bars up To create as complete a genome sequence as you can It actually looks really cool And I was personally pleased to see That there would be some skill involved In getting the best sample that you possibly can From an extraction The plasma weapons for the brief appearance That they had certainly made an impact They're considerably more powerful Than the weapons that we have access to right now But have a much slower projectile speed And therefore require more skill to use I've linked to a video from Will and Kate In the description that shows them in use If you're curious as to what you can expect In the full game We should be getting access to the Artemis suits And the bio scanner in the next phase of the Alpha Probably sometime in the next couple of weeks And one final point The video that was released before Phase 2 went live States on the text at the very end That no one ever reads That the Alpha runs until the 30th of April What happens after that? We don't yet know Alpha tests usually precede beta tests obviously But Frontier are tight-lipped on that subject right now With all the noise and hubbub around the Alpha test You might be mistaken for thinking that Nothing is happening in the main game right now The Neomalanists were defeated in last week's community goal Which wasn't a huge surprise But also, intriguingly A news piece on Galnet appeared That stated that a previously inert Komsbeacon found on board the Ghost Megaship The Adamasta in the Chukchan system Had suddenly sprung to life Upon receiving an interstellar signal of unknown origin If you visit the Adamasta You'll be contacted by a mysterious stranger as well A breadcrumb trial is still As of this recording being followed Deciphered and decoded And it promises at least to rewrite history If you're familiar with the Adamasta and its origins You'll know that it has already done that to a degree Detailing as it does Mankind's first encounter with the Thargoids There's clearly more to that story And we do know that the Adamasta had a sister ship called The Hesperus What happened to that ship And what part it plays in the story of the Adamasta And its ill-fated crew We have yet to discover To follow the breadcrumbs yourself Start at the Adamasta Megaship in the Chukchan system Forum luminary Alec Turner sent word this week That the trailer and pilot episode for a new Elite Dangerous-themed comedy series that he's involved in Called Rebuy Unlimited went live this week Taking cues and influence from the furiously successful Halo Machinima series Red vs Blue The show features some great camera work and scripting And is prepping its full launch to utilize the power of Odyssey Where it will be able to feature a cast of characters As well as the ships and SRVs that we're familiar with Check it out in the description below And finally this week The Turning the Wheel initiative hit its first major milestone When it tried to expand the Dark Wheel faction into Sol After spreading the wings of the enigmatic truth-seeking Non-player faction from Shinrata Desra In a bid to uncover what and where The mysterious Raxler is If you're unfamiliar with most of the words in that paragraph Fear not, I've linked to a playlist of our videos on the subject That will get you up to speed on the Dark Wheel, Raxler and Turning the Wheel Suffice to say, the player-driven Turning the Wheel initiative Is using the background simulation to spread the influence And reach of the Dark Wheel in-game non-player faction Towards specific targets in the galaxy In an effort to see if something, anything happens To aid in the search for whatever Raxler is The location and nature of Raxler being a mystery in the elite games Since as far back as 1984 The first test for the team was to drive the faction towards Sol And see if it was able to expand into it They got the faction to Sol's doorstep after months of dedication and work But sadly no dice With the weekly tick the faction didn't yet at least appear in Sol Regardless of the result, that's that test completed And they now know that that didn't work Which is more than they knew at the start The next goal, and for my money the more intriguing one Is LFT 509, a permit locked system near to Shinrata How you obtain the permit for the system is unknown at the moment It's hoped that the proximity of the Dark Wheel faction At the very least cause the permit to become available And allow the faction to spread into the system So the search for Raxler continues To get involved yourself and help with turning the wheel See the links in the video description So are you planning on searching for mysteries in the elite main game Or helping to turn the wheel maybe Or are you just too utterly absorbed in ground based combat zones To notice anything else exists Let us know in the description below That's it for now, thanks very much for watching We'll be back later this week with more videos Until then, O7 commanders follow the greens on the way out And do keep clear of the toast rack We very much look forward to seeing you next time


being unearned revenue. Down here you usually have invoices that we're going to apply the payment to, but this time we don't have an invoice because we didn't make the invoice yet because we haven't earned the revenue yet, but it still has something down here because it's pulling in the sales order. That's the new thing. That's how QuickBooks is tying this stuff together. So let's say that we're going to be collecting then the whole, the whole thing. And how much was it? $188.56 because it's a subscription model. So we're going to get this upfront right here right now. That's when we're going to get it. And we're going to say this is going to happen on 0703 27. And this is clicked off down here. So what's this going to do from a journal entry standpoint? Let's let's check it out. We're going to say from a journal entry standpoint, cash is going to go up. It's going to go into unearned revenue, but we're just going to call it cash here for the amount of how much was it. It was with the sales tax included $188.56. So let's wait. This needs to go over here. Cash $188.56. So this is the receive, receive, prepayment. I'm going to try to call it something different because this is the receive payment form, but you have this prepayment little button over there that makes it different because it's not going to increase the accounts receivable, but the liability instead, the liability is now going to be called. Let's just change the name. It's not going to be customer deposit. We're going to call it unearned revenue. You're not entitled to that revenue yet. You think it's, you think you're entitled to it, but no, you didn't do, you haven't done the work. You haven't done the work to and be entitled to that revenue. Okay. So we're going to put it in here into a liability account until you do, until you do have, have done what you need to do to bring it on down from unearned revenue into the income. We do that with the invoice. So if I go back on over here, let's record it on this side. I can't do it because I can't see the button. So I'm going to say, let's bring the size of the screen down to 125. And then I can see the button, save it and close it. And hopefully I did that right because you can't change it. It said remember. And then I'll make it super sized again and close it out. And so there we have it in the internal documentation. And let's see what happens over here. We're going to go then to the balance sheet. And it went into unearned revenue or undeposited funds. So I get those confused sometimes because they have the on in front of them. But there it is undeposited funds. And the other side did not go into a negative receivable but rather should be going into a liability account, which we are now calling unearned revenue unearned revenue. So there we have it. So that looks movie B to the end. If I double click on that, we get into our payment closing that out looks good. So that's the differentiating factor here. So last time it went into the negative receivable. Now if I look at that from a reporting standpoint, it actually is a little bit more confusing because because usually when I'm looking at my customers, if I want to look at the reports, I would look at a sub ledger for accounts receivable like we did over here. If I go to my customer balance information, remember this is the similar scenario we did with a negative receivable before where we would see the negative amount and then the payments apply to it. When I look at this new one, it's not here. It's not here at all. But we have another sub ledger for the open prepayments. So if I go to the customer dropdown, and we go to the customers and receivables, we've got this customer prepayment report. Boom. And there it is right there. So we have this added report, which makes it a little bit more confusing. But you know, but on the plus side, it's recording it properly from a financial reporting perspective. Internally, if I go to the customer balance or the customer center, it looks pretty much the same internally. So if I'm trying to manage this and just manage it from an internal perspective, which you would normally do over here from the bookkeeping side of things, it looks pretty much the same, right? We made the estimate, we did the sales order, and now we have the prepayment. Whereas this scenario, we did the similar process, we had the estimate with the sales order, and we had the payment. The only difference is that this payment now is now posting, it was posted to negative accounts receivable. Now it's posting to the unearned revenue. But like on a bookkeeping side, I might not even be looking at the reports, right? I'm kind of looking in here to just to see what's happening. And from that perspective, these two things are are running the same pretty much the same process thus far. Now the next step does add a little bit more complexity. So the the pros here being that thus far, it looks pretty, this the process is pretty much the same. And the benefit is that now when I look at my reports, I don't have to do an adjusting journal entry for those negative receivables at the end of the month for external reporting. I already have it posted properly into a liability account, as should should be the case. That's great. From the cons perspective, it's it's a little bit more confusing when I look at the reports because now I have two sub ledgers and I have to look at a liability account to see the sub ledgers. And I'm adding on the level of complexity where people can mess things up because they might post something to unearned revenue instead of to revenue or something. I have another account that could cause people problems. And I have two kind of forms that look like a received payment form that are basically different one of the received payment forms being for deposit versus the other received payment form that can cause a little bit of confusion. And then when I when we finish this off, they're going to have to pull in this amount that's in that's in the the unearned revenue. Where did it go? They are going to have to pull that in and net it against the receivable, which is going to cause a journal entry and another clearing account. So it does add some levels of complexity to to to the system. But it works pretty well. I mean, there's no way to kind of get around that. I'm not trying to save it. But that's, you know, the kind of the pros and cons of the prior methods still, it might be appropriate for basically smaller companies or companies that are more comfortable doing that adjusting entry at the end of the period still works pretty good. The new method those is looking pretty similar from a bookkeeping standpoint, but it has a couple of those things that do add a bit more complexity just from the internal bookkeeping side of things. So we'll continue on and finish this out next time.
