Mushroom Networks Sets Networks on Autopilot Furthering the Human vs. Machine Saga

Mushroom Networks, Inc. Announced today a new set of capabilities that further automates networks via their cognitive SD-WAN routers. The new mechanisms can intelligently understand flow patterns, identify traffic types and accordingly adjust real-time treatment of IP packets over the WAN networks – moving those mundane duties away from network engineers at the enterprise branches.

Read this here.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/georgia-softworks-announces-telnet.html

Mushroom Networks' SD-WAN routers have the ability to control how packets travel over the network by taking advantage of overlay tunnels that optimize performance in real-time with respect to application types. As an example, a WAN link can be greylisted with respect to real-time traffic during a period of high latency, while still being utilized for file transfers during the same period. These types of capabilities enable IT managers to automate traffic flow to WAN assignments providing dynamic management of those WAN resources on an on-going basis without costly and error-prone human involvement.

SD-WAN and IT automation have been widely regarded as a rising threat to human jobs as they can significantly reduce or completely eliminate many traditional IT tasks. "The new capabilities offload the manual analysis and never-ending network debugging work from the network engineer's plate and automates that piece of the job", said Dr. Jay Akin, CEO of Mushroom Networks. In fact, as more parts of network management are automated, job requirements for network engineering are shifting from daily routine tasks, including putting out daily fires, to high-level and forward-looking design projects.

Regarding the feared (but largely unjustified) threat that SD-WAN and IT automation jeopardize the jobs of IT professionals, Dr. Akin added, "Similar arguments were made about carriage drivers when cars were first invented, but I can safely argue that there are more professional vehicle drivers today than there were carriage drivers".

About Mushroom Networks
Mushroom Networks, Inc., is a privately held company based in San Diego, CA, patented Broadband Bonding SD-WAN solutions to a wide range of Internet connection applications. Their products bond dissimilar broadband access technologies forming a single highly reliable broadband pipe that can easily be scaled and customized based on needs.

Knotty Roller, the Most Versatile Way to Loosen Knots and Strengthen Muscles, Breaks $20,000 Goal Within Hours of Kickstarter Launch

Knotty Roller, the affordable all-in-one muscle recovery system with six tools packed into one ingenious magnetic roller case, quickly broke its campaign goal– raising more than $20,000 in only eleven hours after launching on Kickstarter. Read all the latest news.

"We're excited to see the response from the crowdfunding community, who'll be the first to enjoy the ease of use and versatility of our product," said Knotty Roller CEO and Creator Wesley Wilson, a long-time personal trainer in California who developed the product after suffering his own injury while running.

"During my recovery, I tried out all the different types of foam rollers and massage tools and realized there was a real need for a more versatile product on the market that could be used over the entire body, not require as many individual pieces and be affordable," Wilson said.
Wilson says there are 200 different ways to use the Knotty Roller, which means there's no knot that stands a chance.

"When all pieces are together, the Knotty Roller is a dense 24-inch foam roller," he said. "Then, when you remove the top, it becomes a 24-inch half-dome…with these two taking care of all the big muscle groups."

In addition, the Knotty Roller includes a massage stick, two different massage balls and a stretch strap. The stretch strap is also used as the knotty roller carrying strap.

Wilson notes that the use of foam rolling is becoming more popular among a wide range of exercise enthusiasts – from someone just hitting the gym a few times a week to professional athletes – for muscle recovery and to strengthen muscles, as well.

"The Knotty Roller also saves you a bundle, since the cost of each one of these premium tools on their own adds up really quick," Wilson said. "With the Knotty Roller, anyone can take the cost and clutter out of muscle recovery. In short, the Knotty Roller is a single solution complete with six knot-blasting tools…all in one badass roller." Read this for more information.

Ready or Not, Here Comes the 2019 Holiday Shopping Season

Consumers are split in their attitudes about holiday shopping. According to the 2019 Holiday Purchase Intentions Survey from The NPD Group, most consumers are looking forward to this holiday season, and see the holidays as a break from everything happening in the world – half even say going out shopping puts them in the holiday spirit. But almost half of consumers that said they would rather plan an outing with family or friends than exchange gifts – more than last year. More consumers also said they think preparing for the holidays may not be worth all of the work entailed.

"There is more of a divide in consumer sentiment heading into this holiday season than we have seen in years," said Marshal Cohen, chief industry advisor, The NPD Group. "There are fewer consumers planning on doing what they did last year, which means retail needs to be prepared to think differently as well."

Consumers plan to spend an average of $740 during the 2019 Holiday shopping season, which is a 7% increase over their anticipated holiday spending last year. However, planned spending is more polarized than it was a year ago, with increases in consumers who plan to spend more than last year, as well as those who plan to spend less.

NOMATIC teamed with YouTube photographer/videographer sensation Peter McKinnon to create the ultimate camera pack with customizable organization and easy access pockets. Click here.

McKinnon, a YouTube star who creates content about photography and cinematography for nearly four million YouTube subscribers with 269 million views, was already a big fan of the NOMATIC line of travel bags when he partnered with NOMATIC to design a functional camera pack.

"We're excited to reach this level of support so early in our campaign, which shows there's a real need for a functional camera bag like this," said NOMATIC co-founder Jon Richards. "In addition to all the best features necessary for a photographer, Peter wanted us to design a full travel system – and that's what 'The Camera Pack: Peter McKinnon X NOMATIC' is."

First and foremost, the team focused on organization – creating thoughtful compartmentalization with endlessly customizable folding dividers. The NOMATIC Camera Pack is made for a pro or a hobbyist with a separate clothing compartment to optimize packing – including a seven-liter expansion when more space is needed.

"It can be hard to find the perfect camera bag, especially when you want a bag that can serve as both a camera bag and a travel bag at the same time," McKinnon said. "This bag is designed to have all the pockets and compartments you need with customizable storage to hold your gear and your clothes too." More info here.

The NOMATIC Camera Pack is a carry-on size, includes quick camera access or a full wide opening and has an external laptop pocket for a 15-inch laptop and several easy access pockets.

McKinnon and the NOMATIC team also focused on comfort, designing the camera pack with a full internal suspension system to lighten the load, and multiple external adjustment and support straps. Read all the related news.

The Camera Pack is filled with the tech features customers have come to expect from NOMATIC. It offers full main access, quick side access and the ability to expand from 35 liters/2,100 cubic inches to 42 liters/2,600 cubic inches – with pockets for a tripod/bottle, laptop, tablet and other small items.

Other features include:

It also comes with a cube pack made with durable materials that fits perfectly in the camera bag, which can be used to store a camera or drone – and can be transitioned into a small backpack.
There's also an accessory case; a protective Eva foam formed case with customizable dividers inside; a card case that holds up to six SD cards and four C fast cards with a zipper pocket; and a lens filter case, designed to hold up to six filters.

"When traveling to a destination that I was going to be in for only a few days, I had to bring my backpack with all my camera gear and a rolling bag, but I had always wanted to make that trip with a single bag," McKinnon said. "Now, with NOMATIC, I can…and so can other photographers, whether they are professionals and hobbyists. NOMATIC is well-known for designing the most functional products for travel and everyday carry, and they're continuing in that tradition by creating the perfect camera bag."

Since then, Richards and Durham have raised nearly $10 million through eight crowdfunding campaigns, as NOMATIC continues to design the most functional products on the market for travel and everyday carry.
