The highly anticipated all-electric Rivian R1T is entered in the Rebelle Rally 2020 4×4 Class

“Rebelle Rally shows us what is possible when we have the courage and ambition to do more with the cars in our driveway, and we need that inspiration now more than ever,” said Mitsubishi Motors North America Chief Operating Officer Mark Chaffin.

RENO, Nev (PRWEB)
August 18, 2020

The Rebelle Rally announces the exciting addition of the Electrified Designation for electric manufacturer vehicles taking part in the fifth anniversary edition of the endurance off-road competition.

The Rebelle Rally is the longest competitive off-road navigation rally in the United States. The remote rally will take place over 10 days and 2,000 kilometers of stunning roads, dirt roads, trails, dunes and designated open off-highway vehicle areas across Nevada and California. Teams of two – a driver and navigator – turn in their cell phones, GPS and Internet enabled devices and navigate their way to checkpoints of varying degrees of difficulty using only a compass, maps, and roadbooks. It is not a race for speed but precision driving and navigating.

Designed as the ultimate proving ground for stock manufacturer vehicles, there are two classes – 4×4 and Crossover. Minimal modifications are allowed. This year, the organization has worked diligently to launch the Electrified Designation – an authentic challenge for electric (EV), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) and hybrids. The EV and PHEV teams do not compete in a separate class, but directly in their intended class with allowances for on course rapid charging. 2020 is designed as a test of the program with a limited number of vehicles debuting.

“Since we first envisioned the Rebelle Rally, we knew it would be the ultimate true test of electrified vehicles available to consumers and we have worked tirelessly to make this happen,” explained Emily Miller, the rally’s founder. “Providing battery-based mobile rapid charging on course allows these vehicles to compete in the standard classes, an exciting and important component of the Electrified Designation.”

The Entries

The highly anticipated all-electric Rivian R1T is entered in the 4×4 Class and will be piloted by 2-time Rebelle Rally champions Emme Hall and Rebecca Donaghe. “Adventures like the Rebelle Rally are what Rivian vehicles are made for. It’s meaningful to join as the rally’s first all-electric vehicle,” noted Rivian Creative Director Larry Parker.

Mitsubishi returns to the Rebelle for its second year fielding the new Outlander PHEV in the Crossover Class. “Rebelle Rally shows us what is possible when we have the courage and ambition to do more with the cars in our driveway, and we need that inspiration now more than ever,” said Mitsubishi Motors North America Chief Operating Officer Mark Chaffin. “We are thrilled to continue our support for Team Record the Journey this year with the world’s best-selling plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, and to continue to prove our legacy of quality, dependability and reliability.”

Powering the Electrified Program

The Rebelle Rally is partnered with Power Innovations, the industry leader in the development and deployment of consumer and corporate green power solutions, including challenging and rugged conditions like the Rally. The Utah-based company will provide all the power for the base camp, as well as on-course BEV 175 KW fast charging.

“We have a history of accepting challenges that have never been done before – things that a lot of people classify as unrealistic. These challenges push us as individuals and as a company to do hard things. Challenges that will make a positive difference for us all. This challenge should help us all rethink the possibilities of BEV and H2 as we commit to a green future without limits,” noted Robert Mount, President and CEO of Power Innovations.

The Rebelle Rally is a remote, outdoor event with no spectators or outside assistance. To follow along, viewers can watch the live webcast at http://www.rebellerally.com October 8-17, 2020.

About: The Rebelle Rally, entering its fifth year, is the first women’s off-road navigational rally raid in the United States. The event has a unique challenge and scoring system where precise navigation, not speed, is the ultimate goal. Participants trade in cell phones and GPS for old-school navigation in a competition for the elements of time, distance, headings, and hidden checkpoints. Armed with just maps, compasses, and roadbooks, up to 50 teams of two will be pushed to their limits as they make their way across 2,000+ kilometers of Nevada and California’s iconic terrain. Starting October 8 in Lake Tahoe and finishing October 17 along the famed Glamis Dunes, the competition is the longest competitive off-road rally in the nation.

The TCO Calculator shows how your costs can explode with some providers, particularly when your workloads scale suddenly and traverse geographies.

PHILADELPHIA (PRWEB)
August 19, 2020

Linode today launched an innovative total-cost-of-ownership (TCO) calculator which makes the often complex cost calculation of moving workloads to the cloud simpler and more accessible. Linode’s TCO Calculator is designed for anyone moving a workload from on-premises to the cloud, switching from one cloud provider to another, or setting up a hybrid or multi-cloud architecture. The TCO Calculator is available via the Linode website.

True Cloud Cost Comparisons Made Easy

Linode’s TCO Calculator accounts for all of the costs that go into a company’s server infrastructure. In contrast to many other calculators that ask obtuse and archaic questions, Linode’s TCO Calculator is designed to be approachable and useful to everyone. Even those who are not fluent in server plans and CPU core counts can still receive a useful estimate, trustworthy comparisons and technical recommendations.

The TCO Calculator starts by offering eight different pre-packaged bundles of services to choose from, each corresponding with a common workload, such as websites, databases, data analysis, content delivery, code repository, backups and more. Within each package, a slider tool allows the user to adjust key variables, if desired.

“We did all the legwork and pricing reviews so that the person using our TCO Calculator doesn’t have to,” said Nathan Melehan, TCO Calculator project lead. “The components of AWS pricing are not available in one place and typically vary considerably by geography and other factors. Linode’s TCO Calculator pulls back the curtain on AWS pricing and lets you see the true cloud costs you are likely to encounter.”

No More Surprises: Customizable, Dynamic Comparison of Variable Costs

For those who want to dig deeper into the finer details of infrastructure architecture, Linode’s TCO Calculator offers a bespoke cost comparison for custom workloads, allowing the user to specify arbitrary compute, storage, and networking resources. Users may even choose to precisely map their existing infrastructure.

Linode’s TCO Calculator provides interactive estimates as well. The calculator offers a slider that dynamically illustrates how costs vary depending on network transfer usage and geographic locations.

“One of the biggest and most pervasive fears business executives have is not being able to plan for unanticipated events, especially when those events can have a significant impact on their operational expenses,” says Melehan. “You want to know how much your bills will be as your business grows. The TCO Calculator shows how your costs can explode with some providers, particularly when your workloads scale suddenly and traverse geographies.”

TCO Report: True Cost Comparisons in Black and White

Linode’s TCO Calculator automatically provides a report to the user with three key components:

1. A summary of cost breakdowns, comparing AWS and Linode as well as on-premises installations, if selected. Any assumptions are listed in an appendix.

2. A recap of all qualitative information compiled in the process, including links to helpful documentation.

3. Recommendations, based on the users specific requirements related to customer support needs, avoiding vendor lock-in, cost savings, predictability and transparency of billing, data sovereignty requirements and more.

Designed for enterprise users, small and medium-sized businesses, agencies and freelance web designers, Linode’s TCO Calculator is free and can be used an unlimited number of times by the same user. The company also has a simplified pricing tool for smaller-scale and personal use cases. Called the Linode Cloud Estimator tool, it offers instant pricing comparisons of Linode, AWS, GCP and Azure.

About Linode

Linode accelerates innovation by making cloud computing simple, accessible, and affordable to all. Founded in 2003, Linode helped pioneer the cloud computing industry and is today the largest independent open cloud provider in the world. Headquartered in Philadelphia’s Old City, the company empowers more than a million developers, startups, and businesses across its global network of 11 data centers.

2 JetForm/Adobe Central Server replacement projects, successfully completed

Given the success of the JetForm/Adobe Central Server software replacement, both companies subscribed also to DocPath’s Maintenance and Support service offering, which assures software updates and support for the resolution of any incident that may arise.

SUWANEE, Ga. (PRWEB)
August 18, 2020

Recently, DocPath successfully completed two projects that aimed to replace the JetForm/Adobe Central Server software, thus ensuring the continuity of the customer’s form designs and optimizing its document design, generation, printing and distribution processes. This has been achieved thanks to the DocPath Ontario Suite document software solution and the extensive experience of DocPath’s technicians for this kind of project.

One project was carried out in the Hungarian headquarters of a large Japanese automotive company and the other was executed for a Spanish lock manufacturer, which in turn is part of a Swedish group of companies.

Required changes

The software used by both companies was JetForm/Adobe Central Server. One of the first document software products that allowed designing and generating business documents on desktop laser printers. Back then, it was a resounding success, due to the fact that it has been implemented by many companies all around the world. However, companies that still use this kind of technology now face the need to find an alternative solution, since this product no longer offers technical support.

Adopted solution

DocPath Ontario Suite, part of DocPath’s CCM (Customer Communications Management) document software offering, was the perfect solution for a transparent, rapid and secure migration from JetForm/Adobe Central Server, which avoids having to apply any kind of modification to the applications. With the new document software solution, the customers gained access to many additional features, besides what JetForm already had provided, such as dynamic graphics, HTML5 output, full color support, multitasking, use of containers and kubernetes …

Implementation project

The installation of the document software solution within the infrastructure of the customer had been carried out remotely by DocPath’s technical department. In addition, a comprehensive training on the document generation engine and document design software was provided to the customer.

The high level of DocPath’s professional services allowed these customers to gain access to a technical support team that resolved any doubts and/or problems that might have arisen while implementing DocPath’s Ontario Suite document software.

Given the success of the JetForm/Adobe Central Server software replacement, both companies subscribed also to DocPath’s Maintenance and Support service offering, which assures software updates and support for the resolution of any incident that may arise.

About DocPath
