Pure Storage delivers performance at any scale with new products
'In an era where data is king and IT complexity remains a major hurdle to accessing and using data for optimal business value, Pure Storage is once again redefining what's possible for customers', said John Colgrove (Coz), Founder and Chief Visionary at Pure Storage. 'Pure Storage delivers the magic by rejecting the norms we've come to accept for storage infrastructure; they are what's holding us back within this new era of exponential data growth and logarithmic growth of insight value'.
As data volumes rise and business demands shift faster than ever, traditional storage infrastructures create fragmentation, silos, and uncontrolled data sprawl. Organisations must fundamentally change their approach to data storage and management to one that nimbly and efficiently helps customers meet and scale growing data needs. An Enterprise Data Cloud (EDC) redefines how data is delivered, governed, and consumed by creating a virtualized cloud of data delivering a single, seamless data layer with consistent control across on-premises, public cloud, and hybrid environments. Only the Pure Storage platform offers the performance, efficiency, and intelligence to deliver such data management at scale.

'Flight Deals': Google launches new AI-powered search tool for 'best bargains'
On August 14, Google introduced a new AI-powered search tool called 'Flight Deals'. The tech giant said that the tool is "designed for flexible travellers whose number one goal is saving money on their next trip". In a blog post detailing how it works, Google said that users can just describe when, where and how they'd like to travel "as though you're talking to a friend" to uncover top deals. Users can search something like 'week-long trip this winter to a city with great food, nonstop only' to see the "best bargains available" across destinations. The blog post said: "What makes Flight Deals unique is that it uses Google's advanced AI to understand the nuances of what you're looking for and identify matching destinations. Then, it'll tap into real-time Google Flights data to quickly show you relevant, up-to-date options from hundreds of airlines and booking sites." This feature will be rolling out in the coming week in the US, Canada and India. Flight Deals is being launched in beta to gather feedback as of now. The original Google Flights will continue to stay.

Air Canada Grounds All Flights as 10,000 Flight Attendants Go on Strike
Air Canada has suspended all operations after more than 10,000 flight attendants walked off the job early Saturday, plunging peak summer travel into chaos and affecting roughly 130,000 passengers a day. The Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), which represents Air Canada's cabin crew, confirmed the walkout in a statement shortly after midnight. 'We are now officially on strike,' CUPE declared. The strike took effect at 12:58 am ET, grounding both Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge flights. While flights operated by Air Canada Express through third-party carriers remain unaffected, the airline said the strike has forced it to halt the rest of its operations. Passengers Advised to Stay Away from Airports Air Canada has urged travelers not to head to airports unless they have confirmed bookings with other airlines. The carrier is directly notifying customers of cancelled flights and providing rebooking options, credits, or refunds under a new goodwill policy. More information is available at As of Friday evening, Air Canada had already cancelled 623 flights, disrupting travel plans for more than 100,000 passengers. The airline had been scaling back its daily schedule of around 700 flights since CUPE delivered a 72-hour strike notice on Wednesday. Union Demands and Sticking Points The union's demands include wage increases and recognition of uncompensated ground work, such as assistance provided during passenger boarding. Rafael Gomez, director of the University of Toronto's Center for Industrial Relations, explained the core of CUPE's case: 'An average passenger, not familiar with common industry practice, could think, 'I'm waiting to board the plane and there's a flight attendant helping me, but they're technically not being paid for that work.' That's a very good issue to highlight.' Air Canada revealed its latest offer on Thursday, stating that senior flight attendants could earn an average of CAN$87,000 ($65,000) by 2027. CUPE rejected the proposal, calling it 'below inflation (and) below market value.' The union also turned down requests from both the federal government and Air Canada to resolve the dispute through independent arbitration. High Stakes in Peak Travel Season The strike comes during the busiest period of the year, amplifying its impact. Gomez noted that while the walkout could be brief, the timing raises the stakes for both sides. 'This is peak season. The airline does not want to lose hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue… They're almost playing chicken with the flight attendants,' he told AFP. With no resolution yet in sight, travelers across Canada and beyond face days of uncertainty as the airline and union remain locked in a standoff.

The Powerhouse of Investment
Stop Telling People to 'Just Save More Money' – Here's the Real Hot Take We've all heard it. The go-to, seemingly universal financial advice: 'Just save more money.' It sounds simple, responsible, and… frankly, a little lazy. While the intention is good, this oversimplified mantra often overlooks a crucial point and can even lead people to financial disappointment in the long run. My hot take? Your savings rate is only half the battle. The real game-changer is your investment strategy. Think about it. You diligently squirrel away every extra dollar, proud of your growing savings account balance. But what's that money doing? In today's economic climate, with inflation stubbornly eroding purchasing power, simply hoarding cash can be a surprisingly ineffective strategy. That dollar you diligently saved last year buys less this year. It's a silent erosion of your financial future. The Myth of the Mattress (and Low-Yield Savings) Stashing cash under your mattress (or in a low-interest savings account that barely keeps pace with inflation) is akin to treading water while the current pulls you backward. Your nominal balance might increase, but its real value – what it can buy – diminishes over time. Inflation is the silent thief of your savings. The Powerhouse of Investment This is where the often-overlooked 'I-word' comes in: investing. A well-crafted investment strategy, tailored to your risk tolerance and time horizon, offers the potential to outpace inflation and grow your wealth exponentially through the magic of compounding. Beating the Inflation Beast: Investing in a diversified portfolio of assets like stocks, bonds, and even real estate provides the opportunity for your money to grow at a rate that historically surpasses inflation. This is how you truly build and preserve wealth. Compounding: The Eighth Wonder: Albert Einstein supposedly called compound interest the 'eighth wonder of the world.' When your investments generate returns, and those returns are reinvested, they start earning their own returns. Over time, this snowball effect can dwarf the impact of simply saving more. Strategic Risk vs. Stagnant Safety: Yes, investing involves risk. But staying entirely in cash also carries a significant risk – the certainty of losing purchasing power to inflation. A thoughtful investment approach involves understanding and managing risk, not avoiding it altogether. It's Not Just How Much You Save, But Where You Grow So, the next time someone tells you to 'just save more money,' gently push back. Explain that while saving is fundamental, it's the strategic allocation of those savings into appreciating assets that truly builds long-term financial security. Here's the real advice: Establish a Budget: Know where your money is going. Save Consistently: Make saving a non-negotiable part of your financial routine. Educate Yourself on Investing: Understand different asset classes and investment strategies. Develop an Investment Plan: Tailor it to your goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance. Start Investing Early (Even Small Amounts): Time in the market beats timing the market. Review and Adjust: Your financial situation and goals will evolve, so your investment plan should too. Let's shift the conversation from the simplistic 'save more' to the more empowering and effective 'invest strategically.' Your future self will thank you.
