The Caddie Network


STAMFORD, Conn. (PRWEB)

The Caddie Network Marks Year Two with Continued Growth and Momentum; Secures Next Investment Round, Three New Sponsors and Expands Marketing Staff

Kingmade Jerky, Medterra and OnCore Golf to Present Caddie Network’s First Major Sponsor Campaign with Holiday Promotion

Shortly following its one-year anniversary, The Caddie Network (TCN) announced today its next round of private investment funding, three new corporate sponsors and the addition of key marketing executives to its staff. This positive news marks year two of the Network’s continued growth and success.

With more than 150 professional caddies participating, and a loyal and passionate golf audience, TCN is the first-ever digital content platform dedicated to professional and amateur caddies and their unique experiences and insights. TCN launched in 2018 and has steadily grown its audience in nearly all key engagement metrics.

TCN will soon launch its first major sponsor campaign with Kingmade Jerky, Medterra and OnCore Golf joining TCN’s family of sponsors and all three serving as presenting sponsors of TCN’s upcoming national holiday consumer promotion. TCN’s new holiday promotion will give fans the opportunity to receive special offers from each presenting sponsor and win live chat experiences with 12 professional tour caddies. The promotion kicks off December 2 and concludes December 20.

“We are very excited to partner with The Caddie Network around this great holiday promotion,” said Tom Poden, CEO of Kingmade Jerky. “Given that our brand was created by long-time tour caddie Jeff King, this is a great opportunity to extend our commitment to both caddies and golf fans with a special holiday offer.”

“We are very pleased to be partnering with The Caddie Network and extend our ongoing support of caddies,” said Taylor Massey, Director of Golf at Medterra. “When it comes to aches and pains, if anyone needs recovery assistance, it’s the guys carrying 50 pound bags for six miles a day, five or six days a week.”    

“We are excited to be partnering with The Caddie Network, an authentic voice in golf media,” said Steve Coulton, Cofounder of OnCore Golf. “This is a perfect match for our unique approach to golf ball design and technology.”

With its next capital raise secured from a group of new private investors, including Greg Richter, TCN has expanded its staff with several significant sales, marketing and content executives. Kevin Flanagan has joined TCN as Director of Sales and will lead the Network’s media and sponsorship sales efforts. Flanagan has extensive sales and marketing background with Swing U, Bauer Media Group and Golf Digest.

TCN also has added several staff to elevate and expand its audience and content development, including a new Director of Caddie Engagement who will work directly with the caddies to build new content programs, and a Director of Audience Development.

“We always knew The Caddie Network would provide a unique and unmatched experience for today’s golf fans,” said TCN Co-Founders Merrill Squires and John von Stade. “The exponential growth and success that we have achieved in such a short span; however, are beyond what we could ever have imagined. We could not be more pleased to welcome our new investors, Kingmade, Medterra, OnCore and Kevin to the TCN team. We have caught an incredible tailwind and remain very bullish about TCN’s future.”

TCN has experienced exponential growth since its inception in 2018. During the last six months, TCN reports a more than doubling of all key audience engagement metrics, including: digital impressions, social engagements, social followers and video views.

Bright Computing Releases 9.0 Version of Bright Cluster Manager for HPC, Cloud, and Data Science at SC19

Leave a comment


News Image

Our development team has been hard at work implementing a host of features designed to better extend on-premise clusters to the public cloud and edge, improve ease of use, lower administrative costs, and increase standardization across the enterprise.


DENVER (PRWEB)

Today at SC19, Bright Computing, a global leader in cluster and cloud infrastructure automation software, announced the latest version of their Bright Cluster Manager software for HPC, OpenStack, and Data Science. 9.0 simplifies building and managing Linux clusters from the core to the cloud and to the edge by delivering the ability to:

  • Enhance cloud integration with new data management capabilities, integrated marketplace pricing/payment options and support for larger jobs in the cloud

  • Combine multiple CPU architectures and operating systems in the same cluster

  • Auto scale hybrid cloud implementations

  • Get detailed resource utilization from within Kubernetes

  • Run customizable dashboards in Bright View

  • Support OpenStack Stein and Ceph Nautilus

  • Deploy edge compute with additional options and increased resiliency


Bright Computing is exhibiting at SC19 in Booth # 503. Visit their booth for a demonstration on Bright Cluster Manager 9.0.

“We are excited about the new features in 9.0,” said Martijn de Vries, CTO of Bright Computing. “Our development team has been hard at work implementing a host of features designed to better extend on-premise clusters to the public cloud and edge, improve ease of use, lower administrative costs, and increase standardization across the enterprise. The platform enhancements included in this latest update further our mission in offering a cluster management platform that reduces complexity and decreases the effort and risk when building and maintaining Linux clusters.”

Enhanced Public Cloud Integration

9.0 brings with it a variety of cloud enhancements, including:

  • Data-Set Labeling―Makes it possible to label datasets for input and output data that are sent to the cloud only once using the cmjob utility

  • Support for Larger Cloud Jobs – The addition of FSx for Lustre support in AWS and Azure NetApp Files (ANF) support in Azure provides a parallel storage option that scales further than single NFS storage nodes for jobs running in these environments

  • Integrated Utility Pricing & Payment – Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure are now integrated with Bright such that usage of Bright in the cloud can be billed on an hourly basis and included on your monthly statement from your cloud provider. This will streamline the purchasing process and enable you to pay for Bright Cluster Manager as an integral part of your cloud service, all in one bill.

  • Auto Scaling Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure – Bright’s auto scaling capability can now automatically scale HPC queues and Kubernetes applications from pools of cloud nodes and local nodes, creating a highly effective hybrid cloud environment. Users simply specify the pools each type of workload can pull from and the order in which they would like them to be used.

  • Tagging of resources in AWS – When you run a compute job in AWS through the HPC workload management system, Bright will tag the instances and storage that you use in the cloud so that you can determine which jobs / users / projects were responsible for which AWS costs.

Simplified Management of Multiple-Architecture and Multiple-OS Clusters

In Bright Cluster Manager 9.0, we’ve made it even easier to combine different types of servers, CPU architectures, and operating systems in the same cluster, and added support for the Fujitsu A64FX Arm platform. This is done by making it possible to carry out package install, update, and removal functions for any CPU architecture/operating system combination from the cluster’s head node.

Enhanced Flexibility and Resiliency for Bright Edge

In 9.0, Bright Edge now provides more options for edge deployment, including the ability to deploy a single HPC workload management system across an entire geographically distributed cluster or deploy individual workload managers for each location. 9.0 also provides additional capabilities that further enhance the product’s ability to continue service users and edge devices in the event of network failure.

Enhanced Workload Accounting and Reporting Capabilities

Workload accounting and reporting was first announced in version 8.1, enabling administrators to track resource utilization by job and user jobs running under HPC workload managers. With 9.0, we’ve extended this feature to include jobs running on Kubernetes. We’ve also added the ability to run multiple instances of workload accounting and reporting, making it possible to isolate resource utilization by project and limiting visibility of resource usage to the owner of the project. 9.0 also has additional reporting capabilities in Bright View, which lets an administrator or user easily drill-down on resource utilization for individual users, projects, and/or applications. It has also become much easier to track GPU utilization for applications during the runtime of jobs, which allows cluster owners to make sure that allocated GPU resources are utilized effectively.

Kubernetes

Kubernetes support has been upgraded to version 1.16. In addition, Bright 9.0 makes it possible to use the Singularity CRI, which allows Kubernetes to be used without Docker as the container runtime engine, thereby avoiding security aspects that are inherent to using Docker.

Customizable Dashboards

We enhanced Bright View’s dashboard capabilities to include customizable dashboards for entities such as nodes, node categories, and software images. This way, administrators can track all nodes in a cluster, ensure the nodes are optimized for the types of jobs they run and make adjustments as necessary.

Support OpenStack Stein and Ceph Nautilus

We are excited to announce that in 9.0, Bright OpenStack now includes the Stein release of OpenStack and the Nautilus release of Ceph. Bright OpenStack Stein provides multi-attach for RBD volumes, optional deferred asynchronous volume deletion, bandwidth-aware VM scheduling, and a new OpenStack placement service that replaces the nova-placement-api.

First-Ever Dual Fast Charging Power Bank

Leave a comment


myCharge expands customer favorite Hub series with Hub Turbo, the first-ever power bank with dual fast charging capabilities.


DETROIT (PRWEB)

When the low battery notification pops up on a smartphone or tablet the last thing anyone wants to do is sit around waiting for it to recharge, let alone search for the correct charging cords. The newest portable powerbank to join myCharge’s flagship Hub series line, Hub Turbo, is an all-in-one portable powerbank that solves both issues with built-in charging cords and technology that delivers a powerful, fast recharge. Hub Turbo chargers are now available at Best Buy and Amazon.

The anodized aluminum line of Hub portable powerbanks makes powering smartphones and tablets on-the-go incredibly convenient. The latest additions to the Hub series, the Hub Turbo 6700 mAh and Hub Turbo 10,050 mAh pair a Lightning cable with a USB-C cable that push both Power Delivery and Qualcomm Quick Charge for a fast recharge. The Hub Turbo is the first powerbank to hit the market with this feature and can recharge any Power Delivery or Quick Charge compatible device 75% faster than a traditional charger or power block. Both the 6700 and 10,050 mAh models also feature a USB-A port on their sides that can be used to charge another device with a separate charging cable as well as fold-out wall prongs on the back that can be plugged into a wall outlet to recharge the unit.

“The Hub series is everything you could need for mobile charging, plus the kitchen sink,” said myCharge President Jim Dara. “We’ve added new combinations of built-in charging cables so now Apple and Android device users can charge via older standards or the new C standard, and we’re also incorporating the latest fast charge technologies so your device battery will be at full capacity again in less time. There isn’t a charging convenience that we have overlooked in the Hub series, especially with the new Hub Turbo powerbanks.”

Racing to be the first-to-market with the latest charging technologies leads some companies to take shortcuts in design and manufacturing that can result in battery malfunction. myCharge always puts safety at the forefront, designing its batteries with 12 layers of protection including defense against overheating and overcharging. Batteries used in myCharge devices are certified and pass National Analysis Center (NAC) performance and safety standards.

The Hub Turbo 6700 mAh retails for $89.99 and the 10,050 mAh retails for $109.99. Both are available for purchase at Best Buy or Amazon. More information about the Hub chargers and the entire myCharge product line can be found at http://www.mycharge.com.

About myCharge

myCharge, innovators in portable power create the ultimate portable power solutions for anyone, anywhere who needs to stay charged. Incorporating the highest quality components, cutting-edge design, and smart technologies, myCharge responds to the latest technological advances by providing products dedicated to restoring everyday balance and fulfilling consumer needs in today’s on-the-go, always connected, digital society.
