    Delhi, [India] : The synergy between mind and body ensures fitness, agility, vitality and longevity – are tempting words that everyone wished described their lives. However, most people hardly ever adopt the pre-requisites to accomplish their yearnings. But there are some who build the right habits that help them realise their yearnings of holistic health and wellness.

    Arguably, one of the fittest model-actors from the Indian film circuit  is ageing like a fine wine – Milind Soman, who is symbolic to ‘Mind-Body Fitness’ and ‘Vitality’ is all set to associate with Maharishi Ayurveda being fascinated by the virtues of its product Maharishi Amrit Kalash.

    Revealing the secrets of his charismatic fitness of mind and body even at the age of 55, Milind Soman says, “Despite living in harmony with nature, eating right and exercising right, if we are not feeling right and we miss a natural source of nourishment to maintain synergy between mind and body – Maharishi Amrit Kalash – the super Rasayana – can naturally help to harness the power of body and mind.

    This super Rasayana was created by using 53 highly effective Ayurvedic ingredients, combining various powerful Rasayanas. It has more than 75 research papers published in peer review journals and in globally reputed universities and institutions.

    Adding further, he says, “This unique formulation is said to strengthen every vital organ to restore the inner balance of the body and mind. As a result, the body is at its strongest from the inside whenever it is challenged from the outside. The super Rasayana – Maharishi Amrit Kalash helps maintain the synergy between mind and body.

    If this synergy is maintained, one can prolong youthfulness, prevent premature ageing, improve organ functioning, enhance mental alertness, broaden comprehension abilities and build resistance towards disease. Then nothing will stop us from being more than we think we can be.”

    “The ‘Ironman’ of India and ‘Unstoppable’ – Milind Soman, who has recently turned 55 looks as agile as a 30-year-old youth. From being India’s first supermodel to a fine actor to a marathon runner, Milind Soman is the epitome of fitness. His fitness speaks volumes as he is a true believer of ‘Mind-Body Synergy’. While running is his forever love, yoga is something that he does for peace of mind. He also believes in natural sources of nourishment to maintain synergy between mind and body – that’s why he is fascinated with the virtues of Maharishi Amrit Kalash – this is a herbal masterpiece known to strengthen every vital organ. We are happy that the virtues of Maharishi Amrit Kalash fascinate him, and hope that he will inspire millions of people to stay fit by following the principle of natural living in tandem with the use of the super Rasayana. His association with Maharishi Ayurveda will help people realise the significance of Ayurvedic herbs, Rasayanas and the natural living in staying fit,” says Mr Ram Shrivastava, Director -Marketing, Maharishi Ayurveda.

    Milind believes that Maharishi Amrit Kalash is a key to enhance healthy living. It has a protection guarantee as a natural product. This is made up of natural plants, herbs and minerals. Everyone wants vitality and longevity, which is accompanied by natural living and the natural environment. And a regular serving of Amrit Kalash provides all these in one-go and just helps one bring out the best from one’s diet and exercise so that one gets naturally fit.

  • “NITI Aayog Selects QSS Global led by lesser known entrepreneur, military spouse, for Prestigious UN Investor Consortium”

    New Delhi, [India] : HR consulting and business advisory firm QSS global, led by an army spouse which infuses in its DNA, values and guiding principles like integrity and maintaining the highest ethical standards with the clients has been chosen by NITI Aayog for the prestigious UN investor consortium. The UN investor consortium is a joint initiative of the ‘Women Entrepreneurial Platform of NITI Aayog and UN India business forum.

    The primary objective of this consortium is to create equal opportunities for women entrepreneurs with reference to fund raising which fosters financial inclusion and economic empowerment of women.

    Commenting on the development Sarla Singh, Founder & Director, QSS Global said “Despite the huge success of startup India initiative, the funding scenario is still dismal for women entrepreneurs in India. In 2019 only 6.5% of raised capital for startups went to women led ideas, there is a huge gap. There are socio-cultural barriers and unconscious bias when it comes to fundraising and networking by women entrepreneurs. I feel delighted to be a part of ‘United Nations Investor Consortium’ which is aimed at bridging this gap. Women are breaking the glass ceiling and emerging as strong entrepreneurs and United Nations Consortium for women entrepreneurs will act as a catalyst in the entire process”.

    QSS Global also initiated the innovative ‘Mentorship Program by corporate CEO’s for Military Talent’. This initiative will span 3 to 6 months with Industry leaders. Military talent will work with Industry leaders to align themselves to a prevalent gap in work culture in top corporate.

    The above program is unique as it will provide Corporate CEOs the opportunity to contribute to a much larger cause of empowering and enabling high caliber military personnel and give them a chance of getting absorbed in the mainstream professional set up. This is expected to create a win-win set of talent pool for both sides.

  • Kingston Technology accelerates Virtual Machines with DC500M SSDs’ for one of Germany’s largest IT Websites- Hardwareluxx.com

    Mumbai, Maharashtra [India] : Kingston Technology, a world leader of memory products and technology solutions, empowered Hardwareluxx.com, one of the largest IT websites, with the best-in-class Kingston DC500M SSDs. Hardwareluxx.com operates under the domain www.hardwareluxx.de with news, test reports and an integrated discussion forum.

    The website experienced heavy traffic due to the 2.4 million monthly visitors and the 270,000 forum members on the website.The workload was to be dividedby havingweb server and MySQL serversrun separately on differenthardware.After switching to new software, it was possible to use Elastic search as a new option for post search functions, which was otherwise very resource intensive. Attempts to run Elasticsearch VMs sensibly with due to the size of the database with an HDD Raid Federation array caused search delays. With heavy load on the searchfunction, an overload was tobe expected. In the absence of free capacities since other free volumes were already based on SSDs’ the HDD array had to be replaced, and hence eight 1 TB hard drives were set to eight correspondingly large SSDs.

    Kingston Technology SSDs’ were selected since there was already a prior experience using DC400 SSDs’ and there was enough confidence built up since none of the 16 SSDs, used had to be replaced even after two years of use. After an analysis it was decided to select the DC500M series as the data viewfinder results needed to be constantly updated and corresponding reading and writing accesses take place. The M-series offered a higher number of replacement cells due to overprovisioning.The DC500 series hasthe general advantage that builtin capacitors ensure safe storageof the data even in the eventof a power failure. If written tothe drive during a power cut,the mounted capacitors help tosafely write the data containedin the caches to the flash devicesand enable a secure shutdownof the SSD. For databases, this isan additional security option thatcan increase the integrity andconsistency of the data if there isno other way to prevent a powerfailure.

    Before the hard drives were replaced, a series of tests were conducted to measure the performance advantage of the SSDs’, and these tests showed significant improvement in all configurations.

    By switching the array to Kingston Technology’s DC500M, Hardwareluxx.com were able to achieve their goal of running the Elasticsearch VM with very high performance to enable readers to search quickly and with high response. The Kingston Technology SSD’s offers modern architecture with greater resilience and can add more VMs to the array due to increased performance. In addition, the SSD’s offer power saving options when compared to the hard drives.
