Okay, good evening everyone. There was some problem from my side so I couldn't post it. Start the class now. Okay, people are joining so let me wait for two minutes. Just let me know whether you can see the screen properly or not. Can you see the screen? Okay, so most of people have joined now. I told you last week that I'll be doing these kind of questions once. So let me do question number six for you. A lot of few people have asked me this question separately that how to solve this kind of question. So as I have already discussed with you that in blood relationship kind of question, one thing which matters a lot is there are two things you have to do in blood relationship kind of questions. Blood relationship, first one is type of relations and second one is gender. Now, why these two things are important because to identify relationship, try to understand. So if I see that A and B are my cousins. Now this particular statement is very ambiguous with respect to the gender of the two persons because this is a relationship. Cousin is a word which is used for both male and female. Now, this is a due to reason like parents. So when I talk about parents, parents is also a word which creates ambiguity whether mother or father. So there are few relationships where identify gender is very, very important. So if I don't siblings, one more word, so siblings, you don't know male or female. So there are few relationships which only gives you the type of relationship. And if gender is not provided, you don't know whether I'm talking about male or female. And that is why it becomes very, very important for a very conspicuous answer that both type of relationship and gender is known. One mistake particularly that people do in this kind of question is that if the name has been given as a male name that suppose I write that Ramesh has two siblings. Akash and Amar. Now looking at the name, all the names by Indian standard looks like a name of a male. But don't make a mistake here in this question. Try to understand just having names Ramesh, Akash, Amar doesn't mean that the person I am talking about in the question is a male. Try to establish that relationship in the question in the given context of the question rather than looking at just the type of names being used in the question and then you solving these questions without even establishing the relationship and gender. So always remember all the questions that I do, I tend to mark whether I know the gender or not and whether I know the relationship or not. So this is, few people have written screen not clear. Is it clear to all others? Is it clear to others screen? I can see it in my mobile, it looks clear. Okay, fine, fine. So I will solve this question and by solving this question I would like to show you how I solve blood relationship question. A and this dollar sign B means A is brother of B. Now when I read this question on and I read this first statement, what I read is A dollar sign B means A is brother of B. If A is brother of B then A is male and relationship is brother of second person. So brother of second person. So wherever this dollar sign is coming, I'll write dollar side first male brother of second. So this kind of sign I make. Then add sign and what about second person? I don't know gender of this person. So I could look at here. So whenever I write a person given in the question, I mark a suffix over here and that suffix is denoted by the gender of that person. If I know the person, I write the gender MF. If I don't know anything, I just cross it so that it is very clear that gender of this person has been identified in the question or not. If it is not identified, then I put this cross and I'm very sure at the end of the question while marking my options that I know the specific gender of this person. So this A dollar B means first person is male and brother of the second person. I don't know the gender of the second person here. That means A is wife of B. So first person would be female and second person relationship would be wife. If A is wife of B, it means that A is wife of B. It means that B is husband of A. So here the relationship had been identified because husband-wife relationship there has to be a male and a female. So if first person is wife, second person has to be male. So that's why I'm writing here male. So A to be brother of B, B can be sister of A, B can be brother of A. That is why I have put this cross sign here. Now if I have a hash sign, the hash sign is saying that A is daughter of B. So first person becomes female and daughter. Now you don't know second person is male or female because both male and female can have a daughter. So second person, I don't know the gender and for star, A is father of B. So it means first person is father of, so it means it would be male. Relationship is a father of B and both male and female can have a father. So I don't know anything about the second person. So if try to understand out of the given equation, it is very much sure that I don't know the gender of the second person in case of three cases, which is of dollar sign, which is of hash sign and which is of star sign. I know that in case of ad, the relationship can be identified by both first and second person, for both first and second person. So try to understand here, now U is father in law of P. So how do you do it? U is father in law of P. So it means that if U has to be father in law, U has to be male. So first of all, U has to be male. Try to understand in these three cases, I don't know what U is. Because when star is there, so T is father of U, T is father of U and W is father of U. So here I cannot identify what U is. So I will just check first option and whether I am getting the answer or not. So U star W is giving me that U is where is star, star means father. So U is father of W.   So try to understand, is this equation making any sense? Still now whatever I have written, is this making any sense? Just tell me. Tell me. You can write few things. Let me remove this till the time of type and I will solve this question not only by the method by which I have started solving but I will also tell you the trick by which you could have easily identified the option. So look at here. This gives me option A gives me that P at Q is wife of Q. And Q dollar T gives me that Q is brother of P hash U gives me that T is daughter of U. So from here only I think I can find out the relationship between because I know from here that U is male. So U is daughter or T is daughter of U. So I have U here and T is daughter. So I am writing here daughter and T has a Q is brother of T. So try to understand if Q is brother. So for this particular person U, Q would be son and P is wife of Q. So wife here is P. So it means that this lady P is daughter in law for this particular person U who is male. So for P U would be father in law. So answer would be first answer. Now I didn't need to do this guys. You should understand why because try to understand for a relationship of father in law I need to find out first the relationship father in law and I need to prove that the person whom I am proving father in law is proved male by the given question. Now here in these three cases the relationship of U can never be identified. So these three cases can never be my answer relationship of U can't be determined here. So I will not even check first option. I will pick first option and I will move ahead from here. That is why I asked you whether that is making some sense or not. So if this question could have been in front of me I could have looked at this three option. I could have seen here that A is star means A is father of B and I can't know the gender of the second person. This is a cross sign here so I write a cross sign here across U and as I cannot establish the gender out here. So I will not be able to say that U is father in law or mother in law even if I am able to establish the relationship. Hence I will just take option A and move ahead. So that is what the shortcut trick which is used in examination that could have been used over here. So I don't know how many questions I solved. Let me solve one more question of this type and then I will move ahead. Question number eight and nine. I know you have solved this but solve it for two minutes. Question number eight I am getting answer D from a lot of you. I am waiting for other answers. Okay so I have got a lot of answers which are eight D and nine C. I will still like to solve this question and then tell you the answer. So and sign here means P is father of Q. So and I am writing here and first person is male not and sign dollar sign. And second person I don't know the gender. So second person I don't know the gender.  So first person becomes female and this becomes mother and second person again no specific information about gender. And third first third one star means so star means that first person is sister of second person again first person becomes female and second person. I don't have any specific information about gender and I write your sister. So let me solve this question and hash L dollar P star Q and then shows that which of the relationship is Q of N. So let me write here N hash elements where is hash so N hash elements N is mother of L. So an L dollar P means L is father of P and P star Q means and so P star Q means P is sister of Q. So try to understand here N is mother of L. So N would be generation first generation here and then comes L and L is father of P. So there is then there is another generation here and I know that N is female and L is father. So L is male and P is sister. So P is female and P is sister of Q. So this is the same generation so which Q shows which of the relationship of Q of N. So N is grandmother of Q but whether Q is granddaughter or grandson you don't know. So question number eight a lot of you have given me answer D which is a right answer because here I mark this sign which shows that Q is. Grand son or daughter of N. And how do you write how do you know that whether you have to write N is grandmother of Q or Q is grandson daughter of N. So you look at here Q of N. So Q is grandson or granddaughter of N. So this is how you have to represent the data. And as there is ambiguity out here there is no clear answer the answer would be 8D.  So there is one specific doubt that because the signs like in question number nine negative plus and multiply sign is there then plus multiply negative sign is there then negative plus multiply sign is there then negative and percentage sign is there. So in these three options people ask me and a lot of people have asked me whether you have that sir should we apply board mass here or something like that. No this is a blood relationship question and every sign has a meaning these are not mathematical signs which have been used here even though they are mathematical signs the meaning of this mathematical signs have been explained over here. So this is not a question of board mass or something so please don't keep these doubts in your mind. So plus sign means first one in question number nine first one is mother so first one is female and second one mother of second one and then negative sign is there. So first one is brother so male and no idea of this person brother of B so second person and no idea of gender and this is brother third percentage sign is there. So percentage sign gives that is father of B so first one is again father and second one gender no idea and fourth one is multiplication sign and fourth one same as a sister of B so first one is female and sister and no idea about gender of the second person. So anywhere here second person's gender is not out so P is maternal uncle of Q. So I need to check you should know that here I don't know the sign of I mean gender of P here I don't know gender of P written at the last. So I will not check option A and D because I cannot identify maternal uncle men's uncle men's male I cannot say that P is male in these two conditions so I will only check B and C. So also there is one more sign that if plus sign comes the first person becomes male. So here actually I don't need to write anything I know that plus sign if first one is followed by plus sign the person becomes male so you look at here plus sign is here it means that I'll write here P is mother of S. So if P is mother of S P cannot be male so it cannot be maternal uncle so in second second one also cannot be my answer because P over here is female P over here is not male. So answer can only be nine C so that is why I see how I have been eliminating answer so you can eliminate answer very quickly rather than writing it and investing time. So question number nine the only option that I can have is nine C. Okay now let me move to how many of you want to revise few more questions from this sheet in case of blood relationship anyone wants to do it. Do you want to solve last two questions? Okay I'm solving question number 14 for you. There is one general trick so the trick is that generally you assume one person to be yourself in the question and then try to identify the relationship. So in this question so what I do is introducing a girl, Vipin said that her mother is only daughter of my mother-in-law. So if I am Vipin so I am saying that so if I assume myself this is just a trick you can apply this you cannot apply this I write this I and I am Vipin. So now a Vipin is replaced by I it means that I am saying the person who is reading the question is saying that her mother is only daughter of my daughter mother-in-law. So as a person my mother-in-law lost daughter only daughter would be my wife. So this is I and I's mother-in-law's mother-in-law daughter would be wife and I'm saying her mother is only daughter it means that I'm talking about a daughter of this daughter. So I am writing here my wife's daughter so my wife's daughter would be my daughter also. So for my daughter I would be what father so answer here is 14 B. So this is one specific example that you assume one person out there as yourself and then you solve the question.  So mother-husband means my father mother's husband would be my father my father's sisters is my aunt. How is the lady related to man so your mother's father sister is my aunt. So here am I and my mother's husband sister is my aunt and my aunt is aunt of that man also. So this lady is aunt of this man also. So how am I related to him so it can be only one relationship that my aunt is somebody else aunt. Can be a relationship of cousin can be a relationship of brother or can be a relationship of sister. It can be only first generation relationship. So there is only one thing sister here and no answer as cannot be determined so I take sister and move move ahead. If the answer could have been cannot be determined if the option I could have ticked cannot be determined because you don't know the other person is male or female or cousin or brother. Neither the relationship was identified nor the gender was identified. So why I didn't answer sister because there is no option access that cannot be determined. So that's why I ticked here sister because I knew that it's a first generation relationship. So that's why. So I think you I you have got this. Solve these questions that these questions don't need any specific. You have to identify that on solve first two questions. So quick good good very good. Radhika for most of them screen is not blur. Also as I can see in my YouTube channel I mean I'm also looking at it screen is coming out to be fine. So can you please refresh it or can you reopen it from the link I think it would be fine for you. Question number one and two what is the answer question number one one is to eleven would be equal to two is to twenty two eighteen is to twenty seven. So this is two by three so nine into two nine into three so eleven into two eleven into three. So thirty three would be answer question number three is is question number three is fourteen twenty. And so question number three is fourteen twenty. So this is sixteen the answer would be what can you give me the answer. Let me check the let me check what's the answer you are giving three is a yes good three is answer. So this is fourteen is seven into two and this is seven into three minus one. So this is eight into two. So this one would be eight into three minus one. So this would be twenty three. Now question number four can you solve it. Question number four and five you are giving me answer four B. And you are saying that it's five B. For I've got answer from few of you five I have not got. So you may answer of question number five others. Okay question number five and six. No guys I was this is five square and five square minus one. And if this is twenty four eight. So sorry this is five and five square minus one. So this will be eight and eight square minus one. So this is sixty three. So answer is this. So let's go to question number six here. Question number six answer me. This is a good question. How come you guys are writing six C. Those who are writing six C just give me the logic behind it. What's the logic. Those who are writing who all have written Vanisha has written. Anand has written Neha has written Vaishnavi has written.  Logic behind six C. No what is this by adding twenty how do you add twenty. Oh twenty three plus twenty. So for that matter try to understand this question. That's why I told in the beginning there is no doubt at twenty to seven. I am not questioning that logic for even a second. So I'm not saying that is right or wrong. So let me discuss this question. This question can be solved by three methods. People can think that it is twenty three plus twenty is equal to fifty three. So they write seven plus twenty is equal to twenty seven. That is one logic. Second logic people give in this question is twenty three into two plus seven is equal to fifty three. So seven into two plus seven is equal to twenty one. So this logic also is not wrong. Third logic that people give out here is that twenty three is an prime number. Fifty three also is a prime number seven also is a prime number. So next number also has to be a prime number. So when you write twenty three to fifty three. So what are the prime numbers here twenty nine thirty one then thirty seven then forty one forty three forty seven. So these are the numbers twenty four twenty five twenty six twenty seven twenty twenty nine thirty thirty one two three four five six seven eight nine ten forty one forty three forty seven. So when I write seven to nineteen let me check. So I write eleven thirteen seventeen. So few people also give this particular option that all numbers are prime numbers. So I don't apply any particular this thing. This question has been framed in a wrong manner over here. If I would have given you options I could have never given you two options out here which is twenty one. If I want you to tick option D I could have never given option twenty one and twenty seven to you. I could have written it twenty eight and twenty two or something like that. Then this question would have been difficult for you so that you could have not identified this. So okay no issues this question was not framed in a good manner. Solve question number seven eight and nine. Sorry. Yeah I know twenty plus not twenty three plus twenty is not fifty three it's forty three. So that logic to anyway does not apply my bad. I went by what they said rather than applying my mind and you look at the repercussion of it. So never do it apply your own brain. This gives a direct correlation between your efficiency and application of your brain. Question number seven C is the right answer. Six plus three is nine. So seven plus three would be ten. So C option seven into four is twenty eight. So two into four would be eight. So this is the answer. So these two were easy questions. That's why I didn't give you much time to solve it. Solve question number nine and ten. Question number nine you have been giving me answer. Few people are giving a few people are giving the D every kind of answer I'm getting. Okay. Let me solve questions. Okay. I'll give you some more time. But people have given me answer right to it. So from 65, how do you get 30? So six into five is 30. So it means it is multiplication of two numbers. So from 44 what do I get four into four 16. So answer is B out here. Now 99 minus 23 is equal to 76. So 24 minus 23 is equal to one. So answer out here is one. So nine D and 10 A. Question number 11 and 12. So 11 C is a right answer though I do have. So why nine is to 27 would not be answer here because three is to one by three. One by three into nine is equal to three. So this is nine times nine into 27. Nine is only 27 is only three times of nine and it could have been written 27 is to nine. Then also I could have understood because here bigger number is coming first here. Also bigger number should come first. So only answer I have here is eight is to one by eight. No other number is here. So and why I'm choosing eight is to one by eight. Three is to one by three gives me that for second number. So denominator square is denominator square multiplied and one by three denominator square is equal to the other number three. So it is one by three into nine is equal to three and same is one by three and denominator square is 64. So I get eight out here. So this logic applies in second question. Sorry, third option. So that's why I'm applying this logic question number 12. The answer would be B 43 and 34. So 43 and 34 has been written in reverse order. So 52 in reverse order would be 25. So that's my answer. So this sheet is done. Let's move to another sheet. So here you have to find out relationship in the one C is right answer. Go to second question. Okay, guys. In second question, it's not poison. It's prison. In second question, that's what that's why I was getting confused in second question. Because the person who takes care of museum is known as curator. So the nobody takes care of poison. I mean, this is a wrong word which has been used here. So second question is prison. So in charge of prison is jail. So answer is the question number C. Question number three, sorry. Three is right answer. Poison, the opposite would be nectar. Your fourth option would be C. Our minutes second. So third position from our is second. So for primary, it will be tertiary. So answer is C. Question number five. So flower Lotus is a flower. So which of the following is bird. So fly is not a kind of bird. Sky is not a kind of word. Nest is not a kind of word. Black is a kind of bird. So answer would be B. Question number six. Very easy question for you guys who have been doing math. Sorry, English properly. Question number six is C. It is Antonin's used here. Death, birth, height, death. Question number seven. Good. Seven answer is B. Again, Antonin's abundance, scarcity, extravagance, majorliness. Question number eight, nine and 10. And question number 10 will tell me whether you are studying, whether you are studying civics or not properly. Question number nine. The answer is A not B. Where you fly. Fly means not staying at your position, changing your position. So water it would be swim. Swim means you are changing your position continuously. Float means you are at one position only. Floating at one position. Float is a wrong answer. Swim is the right answer. Question number 10. So a person can vote when he is of age 18 or more. Lok Sabha member can only be, I mean you cannot be of age below 25 years. So for Lok Sabha, for a person to be a Lok Sabha member, he has to attain the age of 25. So answer here is 10 C. Okay. Let's go to question 1112. Give me answer of question number 11 first. Okay, question number 11, the answer is B. Arya Bhatt was a mathematician and Varah Mitra was an astronomer. So answer is B for question number 11. Hunger is related to food and thirst is related to water. So answer here is water. So question number 12, the answer is B. And in question number 13, food is poured into stomach. Food is processed in the stomach. Fuel is related to engine. So question number 13, the answer is engine. Question number 14, can you solve? You have 14 C is the right answer. It would be desert. Question number 15 and 16. 15 is B as birds fly snakes' crown. So sorry, 15 is C, not B. I'm sorry, 15 is C as birds fly snakes' crown. So 15 is C. 16 answer is A. It's Antonin, so nothing else out there. Question number 17 and 18. Both question number 17 and 18 options are C. By putting alphabets in correct order, we find words. By putting words in correct order, we find sentences. So answer is sentence. Question number 18 is uses of Antonin. So life, death, hope, despair. Question number 19. Question number 19, answer is D not C. Though D and C both are similar answer. The skin of the fish is known as a scales. So it would be skin men. You can also say that why not feather bird? So it is not option C because it has been written in opposite order. If it would have been feather and bird, if here it would have been written feather, first and then bird, then this would have also been my answer. But it has been written in incorrect order. That's why C is not answer, D is the answer. Now let's go to first read it and then do it. Question number 1, a lot of you are giving me answer C. So answer C looks like a right answer to me. Let's go to question number 2. Here is question number 2. And here is question number 2. So solve question number 2 only. 2a very easy. So water image. This figure is water image of this figure. So I will take water image of this figure. It would be A. Let's go to question number 3. Yes, 3B, there can be only one answer. V, P, O are not matching with this N. So N opposite of N is only U. So this has to be answer 3B. No other option. Question number 4. So what answer you are giving me for question number 4? 4B is wrong answer. This cross sign, how will you justify this cross sign? This cross sign cannot be justified here. 4B is the right answer. This will convert into this. So first of all, the outer figure remains same. And this semicircle is converted into, what do you say? And even if you look here, you try to understand. Look at here. Here I have, if I write it from here, inner most circle is, or the first one, the outer most circle is square. Then second one is triangle. The third one is here. Third one is again smaller square. And fourth one is a circle, or oval, whatever you want to say. If it doesn't look circular, then it's oval. You look at here, in the second figure, first and third figure are coming together. So in second figure, first it is square. And then the third figure here was square. It is becoming second figure here. And third figure is becoming second figure. So it's interchange of these two figures. So try to understand it is, here the first figure is square. So it remains square. Second figure is half circle, semicircle. Third figure is triangle. So here the second figure would be triangle, because it is interchanged between third and second. So second figure would be triangle. The third figure would be semicircle. So it would be something like this. It would be a semicircle. And fourth will, so first and fourth remain same. And it is interchanged between second and third. So that is why oval would be D and not B. Question number five, what's the answer? Question number five, you have been giving, few of you are giving me answer A. And few of you are giving me answer C. So I'll still wait for your answer. Question number five, I'm waiting for the answer, what you have given me. Question number five, I'm not scrolling down, because I didn't get the answers. Now I'm getting the answers. And I'm getting all kinds of answers. A, C, D, everything. Question number five, the, sorry, question. Question number five, the answer is A. Why the answer is A? Because you look at here what is happening. So the shape on the, this shape, it is, look at here what happens. If I turn it 90 degrees, then what will happen? So this goes by one second. This particular shape goes by 90 degree here. This is turned upside down. And the top part, this particular part. So you look at here, this particular part is taken out and it is getting enlased. So this particular part is getting enlased. And this bottom part is upside down. So you look at here, this is 90 degree left-hand side. This is upside down. Then enlargement of this. So this becomes a square and then this goes upside down. So what happens over here is then this particular figure would be, what to do here? 90 degrees. So upside down means this will remain upside down. This will go by 90 degrees. And then enlargement of the, enlargement of this figure. So this particular figure would be white. You see here, this has been white-hand. So this will be white-hand. So this particular figure would be white-hand. So this would be white-hand here. And this would be enlarged. So this has been enlarged. And this will again become, sorry, this would be enlarged and with black color. So this has been enlarged. And this has been white-hand. So answer is C. Question 5 here, answer is C. So solve question number 6. This question is, I was doubtful between C and A. But I rejected A because figure in A would be, this particular figure would be C. Here three figures are coming. You look at here once more I'll explain this question. Here three figures are coming. This figure, this particular, like when this is converted to this, I already have this, I already have this. But from where this third triangle is coming? So this third triangle is coming from here. And it has been white-hand. So try to understand this has been white-hand and taken like this. This has been upside down and this has been taken 90 degrees on this side. So similarly, I will write in this and I will rotate it upside down. I'll take 90 degrees. So one is going 90 degrees, one is upside down. And one is making, getting white-hand. Here it is not getting white-hand. Here it is wrong because no correlation is found here. And here there are only two figures. So that is why I'm selecting C out here. Look at here guys, it is option elimination out here. I know this question is a bit confusing. I'm explaining it time and again. This cannot be my answer because you look at here, the figure out here is there are two, this kind of figure and it is becoming three out here. Here it is only one. This one is getting eliminated, I don't know where. Sorry, this one is getting eliminated, I don't know where. So B cannot be my answer. Indeed, there has to be three figures. So here there are only two figures. These two figures are becoming, two triangles are becoming three triangles. So here two dumbbells have to become either three dumbbells or two dumbbells and one triangle. So here there is only one, here there is only two. So B and D cannot be my answer. Similarly here in A and C, in A and C you look at here, here there is one colored picture, one white end, one colored triangle, one white end triangle and the third triangle is also white end. So it means that this particular triangle is coming out and getting white end. So here also this particular sign, this sign will come out and will get white end which is coming only here in option C and not in option A. That is why I am rejecting option A and I am telling that option C is the answer. So I hope you understood it now. Question number 6. 6D is right option because this is anti-clockwise movement 90 degree from here to here. So anti-clockwise movement 90 degree would be from here to here. So D is my answer. Question number 7. Question number 7, you are giving me answer C. Most of you are giving me answer C. Question number 7, answer C is correct option. So figure is rotated 45 degree here. Clockwise direction. Yes, this goes clockwise direction. So figure would be rotated clockwise direction. So this becomes straight something like this. 7C is right answer. So thank you so much. This ends the class today's portions of the class. Next class, I will try to bring something more to you. And plus if I have time next class, I would like to discuss a few chapters of SAT with you. So till that time, thank you so much for joining. And let's meet next week. Thank you. Thank you so much.


الحمد لله رب العالمين له الحمد الحسن والثاناء الجميل واشد أن لا إله إلا الله وحده لا شريك له يقول الحق وهو يهد السبيل واشد أن سيدنا ونبينا محمد آخر الأنبياء في الدنيا عصرا وأجلهم يوم القيامة شأنا وذكرى صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وأصحابه والتابعين لهم بإحسان إلى يوم الدين أما بعد والبلافد برذن سسطز في الإسلام today I wanted to share with you a hadith that has really touched me through the course of my life and a hadith insha'Allah وتعالى that really represents and shows how the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم was comprehensive in his speech but he would say his words in a very small constructed sentences but he would have a very vast and strong meaning as he said about himself I was given the comprehensive speech والله was عليه صلاة والسلام there is a hadith which ألمام حافظ رحمه الله he wrote in his kitab جامع علوم والحكم حديث 18 that is the hadith of the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم and this hadith in its original essence is in Sunni Tirmid ألمام الترميد رحمه الله he narrated it في السفيان الثوري رحمه الله who narrated from حبيب ابن أبي ثابت who narrated from ميمون ابن أبي شبيب who then narrated from أبي ذر رضي الله تعالى عنه that the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said اتقلها حيث ما كنت وأتبع السيئة الحسنة تمحها وخالق الناس بخلق حسن the Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم by saying اتقلها حيث ما كنت the Prophet said be conscious of Allah سبحانه وتعالى wherever you are تقوى have a taqwa of Allah سبحانه وتعالى it was narrated that علي ابن أبي الطالب when he explained what taqwa meant he said التقوى means العمل بالتنزيل is to implement the Quran and the sunnah العمل بالتنزيل and it's to be pleased with the minimum والرضى بالقليل واستعداد اليوم الرحيل and it's to prepare for the day which you're going to meet الله سبحانه وتعالى let me repeat one more time what he said he said العمل بالتنزيل والرضى بالقليل واستعداد اليوم الرحيل this shows us that the sahab is understood taqwa what it meant طلقنا حبيب and others they explained it in other meanings and other definitions that it holds the people of taqwa are those والله تبارك وتعالى promise jannah for them تلك الجنة التي نورت من عبادنا من كان تقية here it is jannah is prepared and it's for the people who come with taqwa in that same surah الله سبحانه وتعالى he says وإن منكم إلا واردها كان على ربك حتى من مقضية ثم ننجل الذين التقوى ونظرو ظالمين فيها جثية الله سبحانه وتعالى that every single person is going to go over the hellfire but there's a group of people who are going to make it through a group of people are going to be saved from falling into the hellfire الله سبحانه وتعالى ثم ننجل الذين التقوى the people who are going to be saved are those who come with taqwa so the hadith that I started my reminder with which is اتق الله حيث ما كنت fear Allah and be conscious of him wherever you are that part of the hadith is what the method that صلى الله عليه وسلم has stated and here you can all see me today I'm out there in the open I'm in a place where you can see all of London but it reminded me that الله سبحانه وتعالى is over us and he sees us سبحانه وتعالى every movement that we do and wherever we are he سبحانه وتعالى is going to see us and he's going to account us for it he knows the deceiving eye what he's doing and he also knows سبحانه وتعالى that which is in our chest so الله تبارك وتعالى deserves that we fear him and that we are conscious of him and that whatever we do he's going to hold this account for the day of judgment يوم لا ينفع مال ولا بنون the day when children and wealth are not going to benefit you إلا من أت الله بقلب سليم except the person who comes to Allah with a pure heart and the taqwa it resides in the heart as the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said أتكوها هنا أتكوها هنا فأشار إلى صدري ثلاثة مرات the taqwa is here the taqwa is here the taqwa is here and he pointed towards his chest three times عليه الصلاة والسلام the second part of the Hadith that I started with is and every crime and every mistake and every shortcoming that you do follow it up with a good act as الله سبحانه وتعالى إن الحسلات يدهبن السيئات that the righteous actions would eradicate the mistakes that you have done so the second part of the Hadith is telling us you're bound to do mistakes as human beings but what's needed from you and that which you should come with my brothers and sisters is follow it up with the righteous actions follow it up with something that is pleasing to Allah سبحانه وتعالى the third part of the Hadith is وخالق الناس بخلق حسن وخالق الناس بخلق حسن deal with the people in a good manner be a person who is of high morals and ethics good etiquettes and if the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was told to have good characteristics with his own companions what do you then think of yourself الله سبحانه وتعالى he said in the Quran فبما رحمة من الله ولو كنت فضل غليذ القلب لم فضل من حولك فعفوا عنهم وستغفر لهم وشاورهم في الأمر فإذا عزمت فتوكر على الله إذا كنت ليس شخص جيد with the companions and you didn't show them leniency the Sahabas would disperse from your gathering they would leave you if you were a person who had bad manners and you are they would leave you so the good manners is needed from every single person every single Muslim should have good manners and uphold that manners my beloved brothers and sisters good akhlaq and good manners the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم he said in the hadith إن أقربيكم مني منزل يوم القيامة and the people who are the closest to me in status and closest to me the day of judgment أحسنكم أخلاق then once you have the best characteristics have good manners there's no excuse not to have good manners the times when you're happy and the times when you're sad the times when you're stressed and the times when you're going through good always remember to have good manners and good etiquettes and the way you deal with people if a person insults you and calls you by evil names to remember to call them in good and to show good conduct good behavior good morals and good ethics this is a sign that every Muslim should hold up to والله سبحانه وتعالى كمان دي ده سبحانه وتعالى إنه قرآن that being the case my brothers and sisters I conclude there I just wanted to make it a benefit that we can all share from and that we can all take this benefit is to myself and it's to each and every one of you anything which I have said that was wrong the slip of the tongue because it's not a topic I prepared it's not a talk I but it's something that just came to my mind and I thought I'd share it with you all إن شاء الله وتعالى سبحانك اللهم بحمدك أشدوا اللا إله إلا الله أستغفرك واتوب إلي


We've just concluded Livefish 2, another successful operation. We've done it in partnership with Octrish, the Caribbean Customs Law Enforcement Council, World Customs Organisation and Europol. And the whole operation was made possible obviously by the Ministry of Interior, the French Ministry of Interior. The operation was very successful, obviously you've seen that we had multiple tonnes of narcotics seized, numerous arrests, all made possible by the 27 participating countries. It's an extraordinary effort from them. They had their own national plans and after a series of meetings with them, we came up with an overall plan for Livefish 2. So really the success is really because of their efforts and the frontline and each of those border crossings and land crossings in the Central South American Caribbean Basin. Now the reason we did this operation is it falls under our full tomato framework, focusing on organised crime and the movement of narcotics through the Caribbean Basin, up to the Americas, Europe and even on to Australia. So we're supporting these member countries to work collectively to make the region more tolerant to organised crime and what we've seen here in numerous countries have worked a similar fashion to last year, worked together for a common interest and that's to interdict the movement of narcotics and people and organised crime and disrupt it. So a wonderful effort and I think those 27 member countries and obviously our partners for being involved and I think it's been a very successful operation.


Well, hello, everybody. This is Byron King with Investor Intel, and we are with Abraham Drost of Clean Air Metals, which is a platinum palladium exploration company located in the Midcontinent, Canada, just north of Lake Superior in a very, very rich mining district. Abraham, it's great to be with you. We are, we're, we've, you've got a company called Clean Air Metals, which is focused on the platinum and palladium plays in the middle of the continent. What is going on with platinum and palladium? Some people out in the viewer land might look at this and say, wait a minute, if we're going to get rid of internal combustion cars, we don't need, you know, catalytic converters, who needs platinum and palladium? So who needs platinum and palladium? Why are they hot metals right now? Look, I mean, palladium sort of led the charge from 2016 when it was priced in the 550 US per ounce range. Johnson Matthew at the time was predicting that palladium was going to go to $2,000 an ounce by 2020. My colleague and executive chairman of Clean Air Metals, Jim Gallagher, was actually a CEO of North American Palladium at the time with the lactazil mine. He could hardly believe that three times, you know, price movement prediction. But there was one very notable party that did believe Johnson Matthew in 2016. And that was Neil Froneman, the CEO of a small South African gold producer called Sabanie Gold. And being South African, he knew the value of the PGE suite, platinum and palladium. And he bought the Stillwater Mining Complex in Montana. And everybody thought he was nuts, or was wondering what the heck he just did. Well, by 2019, he was the top performing diversified gold producer in the world, bar none, number one. And why? Because of the income stream from Stillwater on the back of $2,000 palladium. So Johnson Matthew was exactly right. Johnson Matthew today in 2023 is all in on PGEs. They have sold their battery and metal assets in favor of PGEs. Why? Because platinum's the next one. Platinum, you must have platinum to produce green hydrogen. You must have platinum in a fuel cell to use green hydrogen. And quite frankly, people like Johnson Matthew, people like SFA Global, you know, the consultancy in London, believe that platinum has the potential to go to 2400 U.S. on the back of the green hydrogen revolution. And we're reading about hydrogen every day. So this is to answer your question more directly, Byron, this is an element suite that has torque because it's needed in this world that we live in, especially through the climate change imperative. I see. Now, historically, quite a bit of platinum and palladium has come out of Russia, come from a company like Norilsk, for example, but for obvious reasons, we are probably not going to be doing too much trade with Russia in the next few years, let's say, or maybe longer. You never know. So what does the supply demand look like? I mean, where else in the world besides Russia could people get platinum and palladium you know, besides elsewhere besides North America? South Africa comes to mind. I mean, South Africa and Russia collectively represent about 35 to 40% each of the PG markets. Obviously, Russia has its problems right now, and the world is having problems because of Russia. But at the end of the day, you know, South Africans, it's not easy street there, especially with the SCOM scandal and, you know, the lack of infrastructure to support, you know, a vibrant industrial sector. That's why parties like Triple Flag and Elliott Management, who majority own them, are looking for domestic sources of platinum and palladium. We have platinum and palladium geologically at a one-to-one ratio at Thunder Bay North.  So is it fair to say that in North America, you know, you've got the still water complex in Montana, which you mentioned with Sabanie, but where you are north of Thunder Bay, are these pretty much the only two major locales that we know of where there would be significant platinum palladium? Well, the South Africans are here. That tells you the South Africans in Palo Platinum took over lactazil. They took over still water. They've taken the two principal PG assets in North America. Is there potential for more? Absolutely. The critical mineral strategy of Ontario and now the new federal critical mineral strategy will provide incentives to see more exploration to build that domestic supply chain. We're now seeing President Biden talking about critical metals on prime time, you know, the three amigos coming together and saying, you know, we got to get together and build out this domestic supply chain. And so it's become very strategic, very topical, and quite frankly, you know, we love the green hydrogen market because we got platinum. We've also got palladium. And what Triple Flag loved about Thunder Bay North, our project was that, you know, as internal combustion comes off, green hydrogen is going up. And so this one-to-one ratio gives perfect optionality in those uses. I see. And so we'll wrap it up by sort of refocusing back on clean air metals. Your company clean air metals trades on the OTC and the US trades on the TSX venture in Canada. You have a website, you have presentation on there and fact sheets and a point of contact for viewers out there who want to learn more. It's a hot metal in a hot market. And you've got money in the bank and plenty of geology under your boots, if that's a good way to sum it up. Indeed, yeah. No, we're very gratified, as I say. And I'm a resident of Thunder Bay. I love the fact of having a project that I can drive to, check out the Corsac, be involved with. I've had projects in Guyana, South America. I've had them in Nunavut. And having one in the backyard in the latter stages of my career, I've been at this for 35 years, is tremendous. It's exhilarating, actually, and of something that's so relevant to where we need to go as a planet. Well, thank you, Abraham. We wish you well. And viewers out there, again, please check out Clean Air Metals if you're looking for this. If you're looking for great investment in this particular metal space, it's staring you right in the face. Thank you. Thank you, Byron.


k. That's so awesome. Legendary, baby. Wait, we can't do these anymore? Avoid shards. Okay, we're out of avoid shards. Increase your champion spot capacity. Oh, we're out of champion. Okay, let's go trade in some champions then. I always forget about that. So we picked up a legendary. That's our first legendary. That's really cool actually. It's the guy from Fortnite. Okay, so let's trade in this uncommon guy. Oh wait, what am I doing? Where do you trade him in again? There's so many buttons. Whoa, voice acting. Whoa, that's how you upgrade skill. That's not what we wanna do. Boop. Open more LOB. I will when they reprint it. He's actually pretty good when you awaken him. Nice. Tavern. Oh, so it's at the tavern when we do it? There we go. Okay. So, let's trade him in. Oh wait, no, here's how you do it. Is this to level him up? You pick one and then you trade him in. Oh, this is to upgrade. I don't wanna do that. I wanna upgrade you. Champion is locked. Wait, what? Why is he locked? What does that mean? I unlocked him. What did I just do? I don't know what I did, but. The Rhonda code, Rhonda Raid. Yeah, I put in R-O-N-D-A, but it might be R-H-O-N-D-A. Can we fuse another champion? I'm sure you wanna sacrifice this champion. Sacrifice him. Sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice. Okay, if you're sure you don't need them. We should sacrifice these, right? They're all level three and level two, yeah. Easy. Let's use this. Pump this dude up.  We're just giving him all the stuff. Let's go. He's gonna be a beast, literally.  Not leveling up these people, we're just upgrading this guy. We're feeding him to the lion. Ha, ha, ha, ha. Feed him to the lion there, light. Oh wait. Yeah, why does he keep confirming on certain people? I usually, so they have stars. It's like, this one's a five star, so I'm sacrificing the lower end ones and then the ones who aren't leveled up at all. I'm gonna sacrifice them into the level five guy. He's level 30 now. He's a star, let's go. He will become powerful. Ah, ah, ah, ah.  Okay, let's level up some of our other people. No, I'm gonna save it for legendaries. Okay, let's see what happens. What is this? Okay, let's see what happens when we tried this level 33 guy now. Let's see how good he is. Have we done all these already? Should we do dungeons or campaign? Let's do campaign where we lost last time and see what happens. Battle, we need the wolf, aka the lion. You're ninja's level 50? Oh my gosh, that's crazy. All right, let's see what the lion does. The lion is crazy. Okay, I wanna use this guy. Made it 12, nice, nice. Clutch. I want a lion. Oh crap, they just waxed him. Okay, wait, here is moves. Taxile enemies, okay. Taxile enemies two times, we're doing that. Was that two times? That was it. Oh, I guess to just use both things. Send me on level four. I got one of the four star chickens level up champions, the four to feed them to it. You can't go past four. Maybe, I'm not sure exactly why you're stuck on that. Oh, that didn't kill. This lady's insane. This guy makes a huge difference though. Having a level 33, nice. Boom, easy. Back off my lion. We're still barely, we might not even win actually. They're really picking on him, man. Heals a champion 50%, let's do that. Let's do, go for her. Okay, take that out. No, the lion! Uh-oh, this is not good. Can we take him down? We probably can't, two on three. Ah, we're in trouble. What's going on? Did you get the dragon? We didn't get it. We didn't get it, unfortunately. This is the sponsored segment. We're doing Raid Shadow Legends. We do have a giveaway though. Giving away, if you do download Raid, we're giving away these four cards to four winners. And all you have to do is download it, send me a screenshot via email. Lion's a beast, but unfortunately, our rest of our team is not quite up to snuff to hang out with the lion. We're still alive. I think we just have to go for it. We just gotta go for it. We still lost, wow. That's a pretty hard one, actually. Even with Mr. Lion. Can we upgrade his lion's moves? So like, okay, can't upgrade his rank. Upgrade his skill. You don't have any toms or duplicate champions. Okay, so we can't. So we would need another champion of him to upgrade him. Okay, so we gotta only upgrade level. That's basically all we can do. Why do you have to? Okay, we've still got a bunch of extra people. So I think we're gonna use to power these people up. Upgrade.  Okay, now we can open some more too. Because we have more room. We've got more room to summon people, which is fun. We still have 25 shards here, so let's do this. Easy Pogs. Who do we get? We got level 33, four, okay. We're in girl, nice. And then some more threes, okay. Cool. Oh, you're doing it one at a time, it's more fun. Then it'll all pop up at once. Okay, we got this guy again. All right, same guy. Maybe we could power up his stuff with a rare. Okay, not bad. We have an epic, nice and epic. That's pretty cool. We're running low on money though. All right, we're gonna use the rest. We need streaming next with Yu-Gi-Oh. I stream three days a week on Twitch at Rukson34. That's a rare, okay. What's up Yu-Gi-Oh, TCG? How's it going? Okay, all right, Valeria. And we have a dwarf guy? Okay, a rare. Okay, wait, I think we have one more. One more, can we get something big? Come on, rare. Okay, we got a struggle, we used all our money. We've officially used all our money, which means we probably can't level up anymore, can we? Okay, now we got a battle. Let's do dungeons. Let's try and win some dungeons out there, might. All right, where's our lion? Lion it up. You could upgrade ranks, I didn't know you could do that. Your jugs level up unless you have duplicate champions? Yeah. These guys are level 33. Oh, we're gonna get destroyed. We only have lion at level 33. Yeah, we're in trouble. This is way too hard. I went to the last level, that was a mistake. Hardy the savior, true. True Hardy would save us. No, no, no, no, no. Lion puts him work though, man. He's good. He's really good. Okay, can we make it to the final round? Probably not, went on one. Can lion pull it off? Yes, he did it. Okay, it's not, I mean, we're gonna lose to this guy, the hardest part, but. Yeet, lion is a stud, rip. Okay, he did well though, he fought well. He fought, oh, we got a daily quest. Let's go back and collect it. Daily quest. Oh, I think we've done all of our time rewards today. Our champions are clutch, that's all I can tell you. Another quest, beautiful.  See some pictures of a messenger of the demo cards you asked for, demo cards? What demo cards? On messenger of what? Did you pull the dragon? We didn't Kyle, we didn't pull it. We had a great case though, we didn't pull the dragon. We were waxing these people, we're only at level five. We're going through, we're running this. Our lion is so crazy, I love him.  I'm training this dude up. Yeet, that did a ton, oh my gosh. Oh, got him. Next one, here we go. Legendary. Also, do we even give the lion like armor? I don't know if we did. I don't even think he has armor on right now. I think he's just insane. He doesn't need armor. Next time for sure, yeah. Fo sho. Don't forget guys, if you haven't done the giveaway, gotta remind you guys, check that out. There's not, there's not gonna be as much competition as normal giveaways, so you have a better chance to win. What's he low, what level is this big guy now? Oh, he doesn't even have one, does he? Yeah, we need to give the dude some armor. Let's go back and give him some armor. KFC, hopefully not. Hopefully I will not have to do that. Okay, let's, yeah, look at this. This is all we got. That's a common weapon. An epic shield, I guess that's pretty good. A quip, that's pretty good. Gotta give him some good stuff, because if you swap them, then you then have to, commons, rares, epic. Whoa, what is this? This is nice. Whoops. Oh, he's gonna be insane now. Okay, now he's got all kinds of stuff. Oh, you can do masteries too, okay. All right, back to our, back to what we were doing. What were we on stage, like three or something? He's gonna be ballin' now. You ex-gamer, you gettin' hungry in the chat? What's goin' on? Did they all just die in one shot? They all just died in one shot. That is crazy. That's absolutely crazy. When will the giveaway winners be announced? On Monday, maybe tomorrow, if I get ambitious. Yeah, get buffs. Let's go, baby.

Upgrade your armor, too. Yeah, I know, yeah. So, first you equip, you gotta equip it, then you can upgrade it. Just make them absolute studs. This guy looks cool, though. This little dude right here. He looks sick. Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh. Decreased of fits. Decreased attack. Yeah, help increase their stats and stuff. Yeah. We need to upgrade this guy. He's level eight. He's slowly gettin' there, but... All right, we're makin' our way. makin' our way through. Never seen any before like that, so I was wondering myself. Okay, I'll check it out. I'll check it out.

I think the next round might actually be, we might actually get close to losing. I think we still win this one. But we're near in the end. I think that we still probably can't beat that last level. I still want my Starlight Superpoly. Nice. How much are those right now?

Welcome back everyone to theCUBE's live coverage in San Francisco for VMware Explorer 2022, formerly VMworld. I'm John Furrier, Dave Vellada, Dave. 12 years we've been covering this event, formerly VMworld now. First time in west. Now it's explore. We've been in north, we've been in south, we've been in Vegas. Multicloud is now the exploration, VMware community's coming in. John Siegel, SVP at Dell, CUBE alumni, Dave Mcraw, VP at VMware. Guys, thanks for coming back, both CUBE alumni, it's great to see you. Very senior organizations, senior roles in the organizations of VMware and Dell. One year since the split, great partnership continuing. I mean, some of the conversations that we've been having over the past few years is that control plane, the management layer, making everything work together. It's essentially been the multicloud hybrid cloud story. What's the update? How's the partnership look? Yeah, just to start off, I would say, I don't think our partnership has ever been any better. If you look at, you mentioned our vision, very much a shared vision in terms of the multicloud world. And I don't think we've ever had more joint innovation projects at one time. I think we have over 40 now, Dave, that are going on across multicloud, AI, cybersecurity, modern applications. And here, just that, at VMware Explorer, we have over 30 VMware sessions that are featuring Dell. And this is, I think, more than we've ever had. So look, I think there's a lot of momentum there and we're really looking forward to what's to come. So you guys obviously spent a lot of time together when VMware was part of Dell and then it's been a year since the spin. And then you codified, I think it was a five-year agreement. So you had some time to figure that out and then put it into paper. So you just kind of quantified some of the stuff that's going on, but now we're entering yet another phase. So that agreement's probably more important than ever now. I mean, at least in terms of getting it documented and understanding, right? What are you talking about? Yeah, that agreement really defines a framework for solution development and for go-to-market. So we've been doing it and refining it for the last five years. So now, you know, putting and codifying it into a written signed agreement, it basically is instantiating what we've been doing that we know works, where we can drive solution development, we can drive deep architectural co-innovation together as well. And as John said, across multiple, you know, project and solution areas.  And I know that you guys have had a, you know, a big sort of input into that. And so now to see it come to fruition is huge because, you know, from our view, what's the future of computing architectures? How do you handle, you know, data-rich applications, AI applications? That's, what are your thoughts on it? I couldn't agree more. Project Monterey is a great example of how we're innovating together. We just talked about, I mean, first of all, it's all, so we have the X-Rail, which let's start there, right? We have over 19,000 joint customers right now. We continue to innovate more and more on the VX-Rail architecture. Great example of that as our partnership with Project Monterey and taking essentially vSphere 8 and running it for the first time on an HCI system, directly on the DPUs itself, right, on the DPUs. Ability now to offload NSXT from the CPUs to the DPUs. You know, and the short-term, first of all, great benefits for customers in terms of better performance. But as you just mentioned, it's game-changing in terms of laying the foundation for the future architectures that we plan on together, helping our customers back. It was one of the dynamic for you on, is, and it's not unique to Dell, but Dell's the biggest supplier partner, et cetera. But you're able to take VMware software and drive it through your business, and that enables you to get more subscription revenue and makes it stickier, and that's a really important change from 10 years ago. Yeah, and it's a combination of Dell software and VMware software. Yeah, they're absolutely. And I think this is a game-changing innovation that you can run on top of our joint system, VxRail, if you will. And now what our customers can expect is lifecycle automation of now the DPUs as well as Tanzu, as well as everything else we layer on top of that core foundation that we have over 19,000 customers running today. So, I mean, like that 19,000 number, I want to get back up to the VxRail, you mentioned vSphere. That's big news here this year. VSphere 8, big release, a lot of going on. What's the HCI angle? You mentioned that. What's in it for the customer? What does that mean for the folks here? Because let's face it, the vSphere 8's got everyone in it. All the vSphere comes going crazy, right? Another vSphere release. Training there of the labs here. What's it mean for the customers? What's the value there with that HCI solution with the DPUs? Well, first of all, vSphere 8, as we know, it has a lot of goodies in it. But what I think, to me, what's been the most powerful about this is the ability to run vSphere 8 specifically on the DPUs. Now you can run, it's opened up all new possibilities now. And so, that NSXT that I mentioned, running that on DPUs opens up a whole new architecture now for our customers going forward, and now really sets us up for modern distributed architecture for the future. So, like Edge? Like Edge? Yeah, and vSphere 8 brings in cloud connectivity as well. So, customers can run in a cloud disconnected mode. They can run in a cloud connected mode. So, that's going to bring in the ability to do specialized things on security, lifecycle management. There's a whole series of services that can now be added, as well as leveraging vCenter management capabilities. So what's happening at the Edge? We had, I think it was Lowe's on at Dell Tech World. Okay, good. Not the other one. But so, that's got to be exploding now with that, because it just changes the game for these stores. There's, I mean, retail, manufacturing. Maybe you can give us an update on... There's so much happening on the Edge side, as you know. I mean, that's where most of the, a lot of the innovations happening right now is in the Edge and a lot of the companies we talked to. 8X, right? 8X expectation of increase in Edge workloads over the next couple of years. And the data challenge too is huge. So, you heard about the innovations with vSphere 8. In addition to that, we just introduced today as well, the smallest vX rail for the Edge ever. This thing is, it's like, picture a couple of eight and a half by 11 notebooks. Not much, you know, maybe a little wider than that, but not much more. You know, these are stacked on top of each other. You can rack and stack and mount these things anywhere. And it also is the first HCI system that has a built-in hardware witness. So, this helps set it up for environments that are network bandwidth constrained or have high latency. No longer an issue. Those next gen apps are going to want to have a local data server at the Edge and with compute there. High performance. Right, right. So now you get across the wire. Yes, you get rack and stack, a couple of these small things. I mean, they can fit into like a, Clark Kent's briefcase, right? These things are so small. You want to do the analytics on site and return responses back. You don't want to be moving massive data payloads off the Edge. So, you got to have the right level of compute to run machine learning algorithms and do the analytics type work that you want to do to make local decisions. Yeah, I mean, we just had David Lithcoman, who was one of the keynote speakers here at the event. And we've been talking about SuperCloud and MultiCloud, MetaCloud, all the different versions of what we see as this next gen. And this brings up a point of, like he's advised the young kids, learn how MultiCloud, learn about system architecture because if you can figure out how to put it together, you're going to have to make more money. Anyway, this whole Edge piece opens up huge challenges and opportunities around how do you configure these next gen apps? What does the AI look like? What's the data architecture?  No, this is more complicated. But with the hardware, you guys make it easier. So where's the complexity shift between having a powerful Edge device, like the VxRail with the vSphere? What's the EC button on that? Like, how do you guys, what's the vision?  It's going to be huge. I think when you look at the innovation that Dell is bringing to market with technologies like Outlander and then designing that into VxRail, and then you combine that with our Tanzu capabilities to manage development and deployment of applications. This is about heterogeneous deployment and management at scale of applications with technologies like Tanzu Mission Control, then deploying service mesh for security, being able to use SASE to be able to secure cloud security over the wire. So it's bringing together multiple technologies to deliver simplicity to the customer, the ability to go one to many in terms of being able to deploy and manage an update, whether that's a security patch or an application update, and do that very rapidly at a low cost. So the benefit with this solution now, just putting this together, I can ship a box, small, and or stack them, and essentially it's done remotely. That's provisioning, the provisioning issues, not a truck roll as they say, or professional services enabled. You can just drop that out there. And this is where customers need to be. Yeah, absolutely. Exactly, you don't need the skills, you don't need the specialized skills, you don't need a lot of space, you don't need high network bandwidth. All these things, right, all these innovations that we're talking about here, really combined into really enabling a whole new future here for Edge. Is Apex, are you doing Apex now? Is that, I think it's part of your daily work? Okay, so is Apex fitting into the edge? How does it fit? Yeah, I mean, well first of all, a lot of what we talk about with Apex is really about a consumption, a way to ensure there's a common cloud experience wherever the data is and where the applications are. And so absolutely, Edge fits into this as well. And so we have common ways to consume our infrastructure today, our joint infrastructure, whether it's in the data center, at the Edge, or in the cloud. Usain Haragu, when he was on, I said it was a great keynote, loved it. One of the things that I didn't think there was enough of was security. And he's like, yeah, we only have so much time, but VMware is a very strong security story. We heard a really strong security story at Dell Tech World. I mean, half the innovations in the new storage products were security and the new OSs and it was impressive. What's, how are you guys working together on security? Is that one of those? Well, let me give you a few key things here. Our teams are working together at the engineer to engineer level reference architectures for zero trust is an example. Being able to look, hardware root of trust up into the application layer. So we're looking at really defense in depth here. I mentioned what we're doing with SASE, with cloud security capabilities. So you really have to look at this from the Edge to the core, from a networking perspective, getting the insights on things that may, anomalies that may be happening on the network. So using our network insight technology, NSX, and then being able to ultimately have a secure development pipeline as well. I mean, we all know about the supply chain attacks that happened, right? And so being able to have a, you know, secure pipeline for development is critical for both of our companies working together. I think the Tanzu, and you mentioned the developer self-service, that experience, combined with the power of the Dell, you know, let's face it, the boxes are awesome, hardware matters and software matters. So bringing that expertise together, Michael Dell always used to say on the Cube, better together in respect of VMware and Dell, a lot of fruit has been born from that labor, right? Specifically around, and now when you add the Tanzu and you get the vSphere, you got the operational excellence, you got the performance and scale with the Dell boxes and hardware and software, and now you got the Tanzu. What's missing, or is it all there now?  Is it like, it's all rocking right now, or? I'd say you're never done, first of all, but I look at some of the innovations that we've brought to market recently, where we are combining and stacking these technologies into a more defense and depth-like solution, you know, bringing NSX on to VxRail so that you can flip a switch easily and light up firewall. The new plug-in, yeah, that's a great example of that. Simple, simple.  So we're seeing very good traction with those solutions. And the cloud-native developers, containers are all native container. We're going to compute and container storage, object store in the cloud, Kubernetes. That's what we've embraced it, yeah. I mean, containers, running containers in VMs on the same infrastructure, common way to manage it all. I mean, that's been a big part of it as well. You guys done that earlier. Obviously, a lot of the focus that Dell's bringing here as well is an ability to run that stack easily. You heard the announcement on Tanzu for Kubernetes operators, right? Earlier today, TKO, we call it. You know, that running on VxRail now is really targeted at the IT operator and allowing them to easily stand up a self-service developer DevOps environment on VxRail going forward. And then a piece that might be invisible to them is back to Monterey. Isolation, encryption and data moving, the storage, the security, the compute, the management, that's a complete change. And it's about reducing attack services as well. The security perspective as well. If when you're moving NSXT onto a DPU, you're doing that as well. So there's, it takes the little things, right? At the end of the day, security is a mindset up across both companies in terms of how we approach our architectures. And a lot of times it's the little things as well that we make sure are right. So shared vision, working at the engineering levels together for many, many years, know that. You guys are validating more of that coming. What's next? Take us through, okay, we're here, 2022. We got super cloud, multi-cloud, hybrid full throttle right now. It's hybrid to steady state. That's cloud operations, infrastructure as code. It's happened, it's happening. What's next for you guys in the relationship? Can you share a little bit that you can, if you can, what we can expect? What you see with Monterey is the start of a re-architecting of IT infrastructure. Not just in the data center, but also with the edge. These technologies will move out and be pervasive across edge to colo to core data center to cloud. And so that's a starting point. Now we're looking at memory tiering. I think we talked last time about Capitola and memory tiering and being able to bring that forward, being able to do more with confidential computing as an example, right? Secure enclaves and confidential computing. So, a lot of this is focused around simplicity and security going forward and ease of management around. Take the heavy lifting away from the customer, abstract that in, offer the power and performance. That's right, and it's going to come down to delivering time to value for our customers. Can we cut that time to value by 25, 50% so they can be in production faster? Yeah, I think Project Monterey is something we're going to be building on for a long time. Right, I mean this is the start of a major new future architecture of these companies. So if you had to pick one, we have 40 initiatives that are joined together literally. Project Monterey is one of my favorites for sure in terms of what it's going to do not just for that common cloud experience, but for the edge. And we talked a lot about the edge today and where that's headed. You think it's going to explode up new apps? I really do think so. Well it's going to put you on a new curve. It's going to put a new curve, yeah, absolutely right. And operationally, security-wise, from a modern apps perspective, I mean it checks all the boxes and it's going to allow us to help and take our existing customers on that journey as well. What's great about this conversation is one we've been following both of you guys for a long time and your companies and technology upgrades and the business impact and the open source and all doing all this for customers. But the wave that's coming was seeing the Expo Hall here. I mean, people are really excited. They're enthused, they're committed. Highly confident that this wave is coming. They kind of see it, people kind of seeing the fog lift, they're seeing money making, value creation, people kind of feeling more comfortable. But still a little nervous around what's coming next because it's still uncertainty. But pretty good ecosystem, I'd have to say. It's pretty interesting. Yeah, a lot of them are excited about what they can do at the edge and how they can differentiate their businesses. I mean, that's easy. Well, congratulations guys. Thanks for coming on theCUBE and sharing the update. Thank you, Sean. I appreciate it. I appreciate it.  Dell and VMware are continuing to have that kind of relationship. Join engineering. It's all coming together and you can mix and match the stack but it's ultimately going to be cloud operations. Edge is the action. Of course, hybrid cloud as well. It's theCUBE. Thanks for watching.


Okay, so now that we've captured our domain, our domain good and our initial domain, we're going to perform the next step, which is compiling those sources into a dekem record. To compile the sources into a record, essentially we take the data that we've already collected, so we have our domain, our domain good and our initial domain, and we just copy and paste those pieces of data into these strings that we've provided. So, for example, in our demo tenant, we're going to create the following record. There's going to be selector1.underscoredomainkey.moderndigitaloffice.com. That'll be a CNAME record that points to a record that already exists on the internet, selector1-moderndigitaloffice-com.underscoredomainkey.m365x97653.onmicrosoft.com. So, essentially we're taking those three pieces of information that we just found and just copying and pasting them into these strings here, so that we can create those records. So, I'm going to switch back over to my notepad document real quick and just show you that. So, again, we're going to copy the domain, moderndigitaloffice.com, and I'm pasting that into domain. We're going to take the domain GUID and paste that over domain GUID and the initial domain and paste that over initial domain. Then you'll notice that there are two records. We have the selector1 and the selector2 record. Technically, the only difference between the two is that one and that two, so what I usually do is just copy-paste that entire string and just change the one here to a two and the one there to a two.


Hey guys, my name is Jeremy and I run a YouTube channel talking about movies, television shows like Supernatural, and other media and stuff. I've been reviewing content for over five years now and, funny enough, you guys don't seem to be bleeding from the ears at my voice so I guess you guys like what I have to say. I have always been very appreciative of the support that I've received over the years and that's why I'm starting a Patreon account. This is for the people who want to support the channel on another level and have more involvement in what I have to talk about and produce on this channel. We have three different tiers of pledges and co- Aw, yes, the money! Whoa, what was that? The monies! We want the precious monies! Uh, I mean that would be helpful in terms of supporting the channel and improving quality and whatnot but wait a minute am I having a conversation with a dog? I am your inner thoughts telling you to get me more doggy treats and chew toys! So we're just gonna bypass that whole cheap telepathy gag we've got going on here. I wouldn't draw much attention to it, no. Oh, well, okay then. Yees! Now tell people to give me doggy treats! This isn't about you getting more doggy treats or toys, Arrow. This is about improving the channel as a whole. For instance, we're still using the same lighting setup that we made at Home Depot back in 2014. Noise? Deception? No! Like, look! Those really are rotten! But after the lights, then we get me treats! No way, Arrow! After we improve the lighting setup, we're going to upgrade the audio equipment and the editing software. It's also going to give us time towards building and creating new video essays. Essays? Yes, video essays about specific movies, television shows, forgotten marvels, and masters of disaster. These things take a lot of brainstorming and creative thinking to create, and it's a lot more complicated than eating, sleeping, and pooping all day.  Considering the year we just had, I bet you loved all of the company.  Human slave! So as I said, if any of you want to support the channel, any of the options are welcome. Whether it's simply just supporting the channel, having your name shouted out at the end of every video, or maybe even having a say in what I'm going to review every month, check out the options, and I look forward to making quality content for you guys in the years to come. Thank you for watching the video, and I hope you guys have a good day. And you get to see more of me!


Ready to go? OK. Thank you, everybody. My name is Nick Dossanovich, Solutions Architect at Netronome. Today I'm going to be talking about SmartNix. So SmartNix, there's been quite a bit of buzz in the industry about SmartNix. At Netronome, we also call them intelligent server adapters. But people like to call them SmartNix, I guess, because it's shorter and it sounds cool. And I have nothing against that. Before we talk specifically about what a SmartNix is, I want to introduce sort of where the SmartNix plays in a cloud stack network. So really we're going to focus in on the compute node, which is the server in the cloud infrastructure, which is working within the context of an open stack cloud. And in the compute node, obviously, you have a CPU that's running your virtual machines. And then typically there's a network interface card that's plugged in via a PCI slot that performs functions such as talking to your network switch, your top of rack switch, through ethernet ports. And then doing some basic functions to the packets, processing the packets and sending them over the PCI bus doing some DMA operations. In some cases, the basic NIC functions include things like basic offloads. RSS is an example or LSO. Check some offloads, things like that. And then there's specialized offloads that some NICs do for things like storage and so on. And then once the packet is delivered to the server, that's where the server networking data path takes over. And this is where richer features are implemented. And these richer features are critical to successful deployments of open stack clouds. So as an example, in open stack clouds, typically there is overlay network support to support things like network virtualization and multi-tenancy. And in that case, overlay tunnels such as VXLAN or other types of tunnel protocols need to be processed. And they're processed in the server networking data path. Other things that can be done are more complex traffic classification for policy-based forwarding and also security policy, both stateless and stateful, can be implemented in the server-based networking data path. And then finally, things such as customer-based or workload-based QoS, metering, statistics, and stateful operations as well. So this rich set of server-based networking data path functionality, as I said, is critical to open stack clouds. And today is commonly implemented in the server in software, either running in kernel space or in user space in some implementations. So the key attributes of the server-based networking data path in an open stack environment are the ability to handle these rich features that we just discussed and future features that may come along. And then it's very important that the server-based networking data path is very flexible and easy to use so that operators can roll out features very quickly, implement things like new tunnel types and new features in their open stack clouds. So that implies very simple and easy programming and configuration of the server-based networking data path and also, obviously, leverage of the open source ecosystem is critical here as well. What the server-based networking data path must not be is a bottleneck to performance or provide an excessive tax on the server CPU. Unfortunately, that's exactly what's occurring today. And this graph illustrates the performance of a typical server-based networking data path based on open vSwitch or OVS and the performance that we get with that data path running it in software on an x86 CPU. And you see both a kernel-based and a user-spaced implementation for Layer 2 or tunnel-based processing in the context of OVS. And normalized per core roughly hits about a million packets per second of processing. So you can see that that's not even close to 10-giggy line rate. Many cores would be needed to support a 10-giggy line rate at that performance level. And furthermore, operators are moving to 25-giggy, 40-giggy, and beyond in their network. So this is a real problem today and it's getting worse as time goes on. Just to illustrate this in a little bit more detail, let's say we take a typical implementation of a server-based networking data path in software running on four CPU cores. As we just said, you get about 4 million packets per second of data path performance. And in a 24-core, typical 24-core modern server CPU, you have 20 cores available for VMs. And if at a VM workload of 1 million packets per second, which is not unusual, those VMs would be asking for 20 million packets per second. Yet the data path can only deliver 4 million packets per second. So you have a bottleneck. And basically your applications are running in a starving state and are not able to perform. Now you can try to solve this problem by adding more cores, throwing more cores at the problem. And in this case, you can have 12 cores delivering 12 million packets per second to 12 VMs. And there's a nice balance in terms of data path performance. But look what happened. You just took up half of your server CPU and it's not running applications. So that's not a good utilization of your cloud infrastructure resources. This is why we need smartNICs. I think there's a wide recognition here that this is a problem that needs to be solved. And the way to solve it is to take the server networking data path and accelerate and offload that networking data path down into the smartNIC. In this case, we're showing the data path being implemented in a processor on the NIC card. And all of those functions, the same functionality had before, can be implemented in the processor on the NIC card. And the processor here is optimized for server-based networking processing so that it can implement those functions at a much lower cost and power per bit than they can be implemented on the server. And at the same time, you get all of your CPU, expensive server CPU resources back for applications. So with the smartNIC, you now have an even balance. The data path can support the same data rate that all of those VMs need, even to 23 million packets per second and beyond. And you have minimal impact on your CPU resources and almost all of your CPU is now available to run your applications. Now there are different models. Not all smartNICs are created equal. So we'll talk a little bit about how the smartNIC operates and different options for offload. So on the left of the screen, you see a partial offload model. In that case, you split up the functionality and you perform some of the functions on to the smartNIC. And some of the functions still occur on the server. This might be because the smartNIC may not be able to process all of the functions or something like that, or they're not implemented yet. So that's one model. It's called partial function offload. The next model is partial flow offload. And this is the case where the smartNIC can process all of the traffic. All of the functions are on the smartNIC, but it may have a limited capacity for flows. So you may cache a subset of your flows in the smartNIC and accelerate those. But if you go beyond that capacity, then you'll have to fall back to the server-based networking data path. So you get some acceleration, but it depends on how many flows are active at a given time. And then, of course, you can have a combination of those two, partial function offload and partial flow offload. So these are partial offload models. And then, of course, there can be a full offload model. And in the full offload model, all of the functionality is implemented on the smartNIC. And all of the flows that are active can be held on the smartNIC so that there is no intermediate step. All of the traffic gets accelerated and offloaded and delivered directly to the applications. Now, the next one on the right side of the screen shows a full data plane offload model. But in addition to that, you have a control plane offload as well. So in the previous models, the control agent was always running on the server. In this case, the control agent can be run on the NIC card on some type of a processor that would be present there. This use case is applicable in cloud environments where the host operating system is unknown or not trusted in some way and is also very useful in bare metal environments. So you don't have to be running VMs at all. You could have a bare metal server. And you may want to have smartNIC functionality to implement things like security policies and things like that on the NIC card. In that case, typically the control agent is accessed via the network and not via the server so that basically the server doesn't have to know that anything is running, but it's getting the ability to get security firewall policies, for instance, metering QoS and things like that. So I presented several models for smartNIC offload. And the key point here is that it's not all black and white. There is a spectrum. There are approaches that do less flows and approaches that do more flows, approaches that do less functions, approaches that do more functions. So there's a spectrum here. And really, if you're looking for a smartNIC, you want to look for one that tries to optimize that for your data center. So the more functions you offload that are applicable for your use case and the more flows you offload in your flow environment, the higher the performance is going to be, the more CPU cores you're going to save. And that translates directly into total cost of ownership in terms of capex for servers and things like that and power and overall operational cost. Now, we talked a lot about performance. We talked a lot about CPU utilization. We talked a little bit about flexibility in terms of being able to program or change the functionality and adapt the functionality of the smartNIC. But flexibility is more than just programmability. Sometimes people just think of those as being the same thing. But in a modern, open-stack cloud, flexibility means more than just being able to change the functionality of the data path. There's a lot of operational complexity in implementing a large-scale data center. And flexibility is important when you think about dynamically moving workloads around, not having to worry about the software infrastructure in terms of drivers and things like that for your workloads. So it's very important. And so not having limitations on where you can place specific workloads, not having limitations on vendor-specific drivers, is directly translates into operational efficiency for Cloud Service providers. So in addition to being programmable, the key point here is that a smartNIC should have a strategy, must have a strategy, to be as vendor-agnostic as possible in terms of its driver architecture. And then also to effectively be truly flexible. It should have something that's typically built on a VerdiO or Power Virtualized Driver infrastructure. So here's an area where Netronome has announced a architecture called XVIO. And XVIO stands for Express VerdiO. And what this does is it kind of puts together the best of all worlds. It takes driver architectures that are very efficient and high performance, that are based on things like DPDK Polmo drivers and SRIO V principles. And it integrates them together and presents them to workloads in the same common way, in a vendor-agnostic way, through VerdiO. And that's what XVIO essentially is. And what XVIO basically translates to the end user is very high performance. Basically, the performance of XVIO is on par with SRIO V implementations. But at the same time, you get rich services and you get high flexibility, as we just said, because you can move workloads around and you don't have to pin workloads to specific resources. So that's some of the key principles behind XVIO. So what does a SmartNIC look like? Here's a picture of one. Netronome provides a line of SmartNICs called Agilio, Agilio CX. And as I said earlier in the presentation, we also call them intelligent server adapters or ISAs. We have versions that are based on 10-giggy and 40-giggy standards and 25-giggy is coming as well. And the key point here is that we support all of those different offload models that I presented previously, partial and full offload, full offload because we can support millions of simultaneous flows. So in any real-world environments, we can effectively have all the flows being offloaded down on the SmartNIC card itself. And our metrics are showing a 20x performance gain core per core on the x86 over user space-based OVS implementations, so very high efficiency. And as I noted, we have the XVIO strategy to provide the workload flexibility. So here's a picture of one. You can also pick one up and touch one in our booth, which is located right over there, behind the stage, to the left, to my right. And we'd be happy to answer any further questions. Thank you. Questions right now, or do you want to? Questions? Yes? Yeah, excellent question. Question was, does it support firewall features or connection tracking? The answer is yes. We have support in our OVS offering. We support the contract functionality, which is integrated into OVS 2.5. So that's basically a stateful connection tracking feature. And you can implement things like distributed stateful firewalls for micro segmentation and things like that. And that is supported in our hardware and our software. Yeah. Yeah. And our VRouter package as well, yes. OK? Other questions? OK, well, thank you very much for your attendance.
