Users of Salon Iris softwareDaySmarts premier business management solution created specifically for salons and spascan now engage with clients virtually to consult on at-home treatments, offer lessons on hair care, make up or hair color and develop new revenue by booking paid tele-consultations. By integrating this service with their existing business management solution, salon and spa owners will be able to effectively maintain client relationships, continue selling products and services and manage the health of their business operationsall from one platform.

The pandemic has forced many businesses to close their doors, and for those that require face-to-face interaction, that impact has been detrimental to their growth. Moreover, hair clipper sales rose by 166% in the last week and at-home hair color increased 23% over the same timeframe from the previous year, according to data from Nielsen. Recognizing its salon and spa customers faced a significant financial threat from COVID-19and that their clientele were in need of salon and spa interactionsDaySmart fast-tracked the development of this service and committed to deliver it to current customers at no cost. Using the tele-consultation service, now activated in every current Salon Iris account, salon owners can interact with clientele through this "video face-to-face" feature to offer complimentary consultations on home hair coloring or styling, or to sell customized hair, nail and makeup lessons or advice. Early users of the system have also found it an effective way to maintain contact with employees.

The release of the free tele-consultation service is one of many steps DaySmart has taken to offer assistance to customers impacted by COVID-19. At the start of the forced business closures, the company established free email capabilities and amended their text marketing modules to make it easier for customers to communicate with clients and employees. Additionally, DaySmart launched a partnership with Kabbage, Inc.an online financial technology company dedicated to small businessesto deliver customers a streamlined, simplified SBA loan application process. Those interested in applying can visit http://www.saloniris.com/cares.

"This is an incredibly challenging time for everyone, especially businesses that rely on face-to-face client interaction," said Jeff Dickerson, CEO of DaySmart. "Our mission has always been to empower small entrepreneurs to create sustainable growthand that can mean adapting to challenges like the one created by the current pandemic. We hope every Salon Iris customer takes advantage of this new, free service to stay connected to clients or explore new revenue opportunities."

AWS doubles the performance of its Snowball Edge device and adds new software – SiliconANGLE

Amazon Web Services Inc. today introduced a new version of Snowball Edge, its system for running edge computing workloads and migrating data to the cloud, that features more powerful silicon as well as additional management tools.

AWS launched the first Snowball device in 2015 as a way for enterprises to move large amounts of records to its public cloud. A company could order a system to its data center, load it up with data and ship it to the nearest AWS facility. Snowball Edge (pictured) serves this function as well, but it can also double as an edge computing platformfor runningapplications in environments such as factories and ships.

AWS refreshed the so-called Storage Optimized variant of the device as part of todays upgrade. The company has added in a 3.2-gigahertz processor that doubles the systems computing power and provides a total of 40 virtual central processing units, or vCPUs, for local cloud instances. A vCPU is a unit of processing power used by AWS that usually corresponds to one thread in a physical processor core.

The upgraded Snowball Edge also features other hardware improvements. In addition to the 80 TB of storage for data processing and data transfer workloads, theres now 1 TB of SATA SSD storage that is accessible to the EC2 instances that you launch on the device, AWS Chief Evangelist Jeff Barr wrote in a blog post. Companies can combine up to12 Snowball Edge devicesto assemble an edgecomputing cluster with a petabyte of storage capacity.

For cloudmigration use cases, in turn,the device provides 25% faster data transfer speeds. This is made possible by a new 100 Gigabit QSFP+ network adapter in the chassis, Barr detailed.

AWS will ship the upgraded hardware with a number of new software capabilities. Theres now a visual management console administrators can use to perform tasks such as configuring the device, while an integration with AWS Systems Manager service makes it possible to write scripts to automate maintenance chores.

Capping off the update is an access control tool meant to boost cybersecurity. According to AWS, it allowcompanies to manage which user can access whatresource in situations where multiple employees are using the same Snowball Edge deployment.

This is an attempt by AWS to get more infrastructure from on-prem to their cloud, Marty Puranik, chief executive of cloud hosting solutions provider Atlantic.Net, told SiliconANGLE. They are working to get better product-market fit, based on customer feedback, of improvements they needed to make. It looks like security and compliance were key in getting adoption of this product going.

Edge computingis a priority for AWS rivals as well. Microsoft Corp. offers Azure Stack appliances companies can deploy on-premises and Google LLC hasGlobal Mobile Edge Cloud, which allows telecommunications customers to run applications not just in its main cloud data centers but also its 130-plus edge locations.

Serato now has a free edition of its music-making software – The Verge

Popular DJ and music production software company Serato has released an update to its Serato Studio DAW, and it comes with a big change: theres now a free edition. This free edition is feature-limited, but it does let you make, save, and export tracks.

Serato Studio is a digital audio workstation like Ableton or Logic, but it has features that are geared toward DJs and beat-makers. It integrates with Seratos DJ software so you can quickly make edits or mashups of tracks you already have. It also includes DJ-style channel mixing strips and works with Serato DJ-compatible controllers, so DJs can use them to make music with Serato Studio.

The free edition of Serato Studio has most of the functionality of the full edition, but with restricted use. The amount of audio sources you can work on at one time is limited, you can only export tracks as a single MP3 file, and automation is disabled.

The free edition probably isnt a good solution for someone who wants to make robust tracks that use a lot of audio sources. But it could be useful for beginners and DJs who want to alter songs for use in live performances. We wanted to offer the best tool for people to start making beats and DJ edits, Nick Maclaren, chief strategy officer at Serato, said in a statement. Just load up an acapella or full track to chop up, make a mashup, or create a quick intro edit so its ready for your DJ sets.

Serato Studio is also getting other updates today. A new auto chord mode lets you play chords in the key of your project by pressing any note, and a Feel parameter will adjust the timing and velocity of the chords individual notes to make it sound more natural. There are also a handful of minor improvements around quantizing and layout.

Any time is a good time for freebies, but theyre especially welcome now as much of the world is stuck at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A lot of other companies have issued temporary free offers as of late, but this one is nice since its a permanent move.

Serato Studios free edition can be downloaded now. If you want to upgrade, the full edition of Serato Studio has a 14-day trial and is available as a $10-per-month subscription or a one-time cost of $199.

NiceLabel provides free software to help with Covid-19 crisis – Labels and Labeling

NiceLabel, a label design software and management systems specialist, has launches a special initiative for organizations that have joined the fight against Covid-19 by offering subscriptions of its cloud-based labelling technology as well as its technical consulting services free of charge.

NiceLabel has launched the non-commercial and non-profit-based initiative in order to help organizations get much needed deliveries of medical equipment and supplies such as respirators, disinfectants, masks or other critical supplies to those in need as quickly as possible.

Having the cloud-based labelling technology in place will enable these producing new labels quickly and rapidly add them to the packaging used on new product lines to ensure that equipment and materials arrive on the front line without delay.

Organizations likely to qualify include manufacturers re-focusing on the production of critical healthcare supplies, farms and other food producers who must meet new labeling requirements to supply critical food to supermarkets, hospitals and other organizations involved in fighting Covid-19.

In delivering a free labelling technology, NiceLabel will engage with them both directly and, where appropriate, through value added resellers and other IT partners.

Ken Moir, vice president of marketing at NiceLabel said: We wanted to help eliminate any delays in the delivery of supplies by ensuring that labelling is never an obstacle to getting critical items to the front line as fast as possible. Our multi-tenant cloud platform allows us from a remote location to get labelling anywhere around the world - and to do it ultra-fast.

We plan to use our capability to help manufacturers rapidly switch their product lines to key equipment and products needed in the fight against COVID-19 and to support the rapid delivery of those supplies to those battling this new virus on the front line. We are here to help, so we would encourage any organization seeking out labelling support as they look to get key materials and equipment deliveries out to those who need it most, to get in touch with us today.

Organizations needing help with labelling during the COVID-19 outbreak should register their interest at https://www.nicelabel.com/covid19.
