According to a<a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/cons-products/electronics/reliance-jio-plans-cloud-laptop-in-bid-to-reduce-ownership-costs/articleshow/105299632.cms"> report</a> by Economic Times, Jio is working on launching a ‘cloud’ laptop in the country, aimed at reducing the ownership cost. The company is reportedly in talks with manufacturers such as HP, Acer and Lenovo to launch the laptop in the country. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="What is a cloud laptop?" comment="subhead" text="What is a cloud laptop?">What is a <keyword id="19539992" type="General" weightage="30" keywordseo="cloud-laptop" source="Orion">cloud laptop</keyword>?</cmsannotation> If you are confused about what a cloud laptop is, here’s everything you need know: Jio will reportedly offer the laptop as a “dumb terminal”, which will just be enough to connect with the company’s JioCloud. This is where all the processing and storage will reportedly happen. What this basically means is that you don’t have to get the latest processors and expensive storage to get the performance of a top end laptop. You can just buy the laptop from Jio, which will likely feature an entry-level chipset. All the computing and storage will occur on the JioCloud and you will need an active internet connection to access this data, unlike traditional laptops where you can access files on your device without the need of an internet connection. “The cost of a laptop depends on its hardware like memory, processing power, chipset etc. The greater capacity of these hardware increases costs as well as battery power. What we are doing is, we are stripping all this and the whole processing of the laptop will happen at the back end in the Jio cloud,” an official familiar with the matter told ET. In addition to the cost of the laptop, the user will reportedly also be charged a monthly subscription fee to use this service. At the moment, there is no information about what the subscription plans will look like but we can expect multiple tiers, based on performance and storage capacity. If you already have a desktop or a smart TV, you will reportedly be able to access this service, without having to purchase the laptop.

Jio to enter the cloud laptop segment  – What are they and what to expect

<ul><li>At its AGM today, Reliance Industries announced the <keyword id="14840517" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jio-airfiber" source="Orion">Jio AirFiber</keyword> and plug-and-play device which will be launched soon.</li><li>By using the plug-and-play device - Jio Cloud PC, users can eliminate all expenses related to buying a PC or a laptop.</li><li>Jio’s 5G services will be launched in multiple key cities including Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai and Kolkata.</li></ul>Reliance Industries (RIL) Chairman Mukesh Ambani today announced an investment of ₹ 2 lakh crore to roll out 5G services in India by Diwali this year. At RIL’s 45th annual general meeting (AGM), he said Jio’s 5G services will be launched in multiple key cities including Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai and Kolkata. Further, he added, “By Dec’23, we will deliver 5G to every town of India”. The company plans to connect 100 million households with high-speed mobile broadband in 18 months. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Jio AirFiber: A PC in every Indian home and business" comment="subhead" text="Jio AirFiber: A PC in every Indian home and business">Jio AirFiber: A PC in every Indian home and business</cmsannotation> Reliance has launched a new Jio AirFiber plug-and-play device that is said to give fibre-like speeds wirelessly, via WiFi hotspots. Talking about how JioAirFiber will be a revolutionary device, Kiran Thomas, director, Reliance Jio, said, "Using JioAirFiber, customers can opt to use a virtual PC - Jio Cloud PC. No upfront investments, no upgrades. A super-affordable way to bring the power of a PC, even multiple PCs, to every Indian home and business." The ultra-high speed of JioAirFiber will help in transforming how videos are consumed. "We can deliver multiple video streams, showing multiple camera angles at the same time and that too in ultra-high definition, and we can dynamically choose which camera angle we want to focus on," said Akash Ambani, the chairman of Reliance Jio. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Jio Cloud PC – What this is" comment="subhead" text="Jio Cloud PC – What this is">Jio Cloud PC – What this is</cmsannotation> As part of the AirFiber service, customers will be able to access cloud PCs. Using JioAirFiber, people can eliminate all expenses related to buying computer hardware and periodically upgrading it, and opt to use a virtual PC hosted in the cloud – called Jio Cloud PC. With no upfront investment or tension of periodical upgrades, a user needs to pay only to the extent used, which could help cut costs significantly. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="What is a cloud PC?" comment="subhead" text="What is a cloud PC?">What is a cloud PC?</cmsannotation> A cloud PC is a virtual desktop – a highly optimised and scalable virtual machine providing end users with a rich Windows desktop experience. In cloud PCs, the data is delivered from the cloud rather than physical devices, data centres or devices like workstations. Cloud PCs work on a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model. Currently, Microsoft offers Windows 365 Cloud PC service that hosts virtual PCs with Windows installed on them. To access a Cloud PC a user needs a device - Jio AirFiber plug-and-play device similar to Fire Stick. A CPU is not needed as the connected server will act as the powerhouse of a cloud PC. Reliance says that the Jio Cloud PC device will be a game changer for students, small businesses and gig-workers in the country. Also, the solution will be helpful for large enterprises as no upfront investment will be required. Currently, there are no details on the availability and price of the device, but it is likely that the Jio Cloud PC will be available after the rollout of Jio 5G services.

Rishabh Sood, CTO, BluSmart, told IANS that from a charging infrastructure perspective, both state and central government responses have been great and have floated many projects on a PPP basis. With the ever-growing customer base, Sood added, it is imperative to have BluSmart's services up and running with zero downtime and for this, the startup relies on various AWS services to build a strong foundation. Here are the excerpts from an interview: Q: What is BluSmart's USP? How do you differentiate yourself from other players in the <keyword id="6744459" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="EV-fleet" source="Orion">EV fleet</keyword> landscape? A: BluSmart is the only ride hailing service in the country that ensures zero emission, zero surge and zero ride denials to its customers and zero financial investment from its driver partners. We believe the source of our sustainable competitive advantage is that we have built multiple small MOATs around various parts of the business, which are collectively keeping us ahead of the curve. On the customer end, by solving for the core issue of hassles of ride booking, cancellations, surge and unclean cars we have been able to build a very loyal customer base. This hassle free experience of zero surge, zero cancellation and clean cars with courteous drivers being achieved every day repeatedly is starting to become a habit. On the driver end, by solving for the core issue of driver partners' inability to buy, own and maintain assets, we have been able to build loyalties on the drier partner side, which is immensely important since they are the brand custodians on the roads and are the ones who uphold the brand promise every time. On the technology side, by solving for the core issue of "fuel being a constraint" with EVs as against ICE powered vehicles where the ride-hails tech historically has not been required to worry about the fuel inside the car. Building a technology backend which is born electric and takes a full stack approach towards solving for ride matching at scale where no human is required to take decisions and the technology optimally guides the drivers right from picking up customers to reaching the nearest EV charging stations when running out of charge. On the partner ecosystem side, by solving for the core issue of having partners who have a purpose and a vision that feeds into each other's ambitions. Having partners like BP Ventures who come with the right global experience around energy and team building. Having partners like JioBP, which is a JV between Reliance and BP in India and having the backing of the largest enterprise in India in building more EV charging infra. Having partners like Tata Motors, who have decades of experience in automobiles and have taken the right stand when it comes to EVs and is able to support the growth ambitions of BluSmart. Q: For India to achieve its vision of reducing emission intensity by 45 per cent by 2030 and reach the net-zero target by 2070, EV would have to go mainstream. What are some of the biggest roadblocks you see today in India, be it in the manufacturing, EV financing, regulatory and policy landscape? A: The country has faced supply and delivery challenges in the past in getting EVs from leading OEMs around the country due to the semiconductor chip crisis in the past 3 years. Since, the supply chain and semiconductor issues have now started to relax, we are seeing an accelerated movement towards vehicle production and delivery. We believe that the manufacturing of EVs needs to be scaled up massively to support the increased adoption of EVs which in turn will lead to economies of scale. Also entry of established players into the EV industry will provide a variety of options to the common man. From a charging infrastructure perspective, both state and central government response have been great and have floated many projects on a PPP basis. We have also partnered up with giants such as Jio BP to help our expansion plans and create more charging infrastructure. Ramping up of charging infrastructure will play a key role in achieving net zero emission. Q: Tell us about the scale of your operations/size of EV fleet in India and your projected growth trajectory over the next 5 years? A: BluSmart currently operates an electric fleet of 2,200+ EVs on its platform. BluSmart Mobility is the most preferred mode of public transportation across Delhi NCR having completed 2.5 million+ all electric trips, covering over 86 million+ clean kms with over 900,000+ app downloads with an app rating of 4.9 out of 5.0 in the last year. It has the largest fleet of electric cabs and the largest network of EV fast charging stations across Delhi NCR. On September 26, 2022, BluSmart expanded geographically and started its operations in Bengaluru as its second city. BluSmart is poised to double its fleet by the end of the year and aims to have over 1,00,000 EVs on our platform by 2025. Q: What has AWS and cloud technology enabled you to do better? A: AWS is our trusted cloud partner for its feature rich and highly performant ecosystem of diversified services. With the ever growing customer base, it is imperative to have BluSmart's services up and running with zero downtime and this is where Amazon CloudWatch helps to preemptively learn metrics breach and remediate the same automatically. BluSmart uses Amazon Aurora, which is designed for exceptionally high performance and availability at a global scale with full MySQL and PostgreSQL compatibility. We adopted Aurora because it gives us the ability to manage our data at a large scale without having to deal with maintenance and optimizations at our end. At BluSmart every decision we make is driven by data hence we wanted a petabyte-scale data warehouse service that makes it simple and cost-effective to efficiently analyze data using existing business intelligence tools therefore we decided to go with Amazon Redshift as it provides constant monitoring of operations, logs, auditing, and traceability. We discovered key improvements in cost and performance for improving speed to market and operational efficiency. During our peak demand periods, we rely on AWS Autoscaling to handle high surge in requests by scaling containers and Database read replicas to provide seamless and elated customer experience. We at BluSmart are focused on the security of our data, infrastructure and resources and we rely on various AWS security services to build a strong foundation. We will continue to explore further on AWS in the future, adding new features and capabilities along the way. Q. In terms of business outcomes, what benefits have you experienced because of running on AWS? Please provide metrics where applicable: A: We have been able to bring efficiency in handling the demand and process performance by reducing the effort of self managing and monitoring the infrastructure. Without having to spend time on infrastructure engineering, developers are able to focus on the core product development which helps us reach the market faster. Usage of autoscaling to handle the load of peak and non peak demands efficiently by dynamic scaling up and scaling down of cloud infra on an intraday basis provided a significant cost advantage over maintaining a dedicated infra for peak loads. Further, periodic snapshots, data replication and disaster recovery strategy helps us mitigate data and infrastructure risks.

Intel Capital has invested ₹1894.5 crore ($253.5 million) in Jio for a 0.39% stake. “This move is more strategic rather than just an investment. It’s more of a pull rather than a push strategy,” Counterpoint analyst Tushar Pathak told Business Insider. Experts believe that Intel’s investment in Jio can help Reliance across three main verticals – Artificial Intelligence, the 5G push and a possible debut of a Jio laptop. Reliance too in a statement said that “Intel Capital invests globally in innovative companies with a focus on disruptive technology areas like cloud computing, artificial intelligence and 5G – opportunities where Jio is also innovating and investing for growth.” Using Intel’s AI expertise to manage data over 500 million subscribers Bernstein’s report from June estimated that Jio would <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/business/news/jio-to-capture-48-market-share-by-fy25-bernstein/articleshow/76420507.cms">capture nearly half the Indian market</a> by 2025 — calling the company the ‘new king of Indian telecommunications’. It forecasts that Jio’s subscriber base will jump from its current standing at 388 million subscribers to cross 500 million by 2023 to hit 609 million by 2025. “If that happens, it’s a massive amount of data on a particular platform. That is what is exciting these investors, especially someone like Intel Capital,” said Pathak. Most of Intel Capital’s investments in the past have <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2017/09/18/intel-capital-has-invested-over-1-billion-in-companies-focused-on-ai/">focussed on artificial intelligence</a> (AI), including edge computing, cloud technology and network transformation — going from 4G to 5G. “When 500 million subscribers will interact and create a massive database, the role of AI is going to be huge for a company like Jio. A lot of their users will have a cross-platform approach,” Pathak noted. The 5G dream Reliance has been gunning for 5G and Ambani has plans to test <keyword id="6354504" type="DEFINITION" weightage="20" keywordseo="reliance-jio">Reliance Jio</keyword>’s own 5G network in-house — if it gets the requisite approval from the Department of Telecommunications (DoT). According to Pathak, Intel’s impetus is to keep an eye on companies which have the ability to make the technological shift, something that only happens once every decade. In 2020, it’s the shift to 5G. A Jio executive wrote on <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/posts/activity-6684675263038550016-YKLP/">LinkedIn</a> that the Jio and Intel’s leadership in ORAN and OpenRan will benefit the growth and transformation of next-generation networks. ORAN and OpenRan are open source 5G software. “Intel has advanced Edge computing offerings across processors, analytics, AI and the access to this technology can help Jio Platforms engineering teams make significant pace with their 5G technology and IoT ecosystem rollouts,” said a report by <a href="https://greyhoundresearch.com/intel-will-help-jio-platforms-expedite-on-its-compute-to-cloud-vision/">Greyhound research. </a> A Jio laptop soon? Intel’s expertise in consumer electronics could also come in handy for the telecom giant. Jio had already marked its foray into the consumer electronics segment with mobiles and the partnership with Intel can help mark its debut in another segment – laptops where Intel has a majority market share. “Intel can help Jio launch computing devices (Laptops and Tablets) and accessories like cameras. Might help to note that Jio is already aggressively pursuing its ambitions to become a smart city vendor in which cameras is a key ask. Also, the company has already launched IoT cameras for homes for both Smart TV and surveillance purposes,” said the Greyhound report. However, the consumer side of things will not be the first move for Jio, believe analysts. “Their top priority will be AI, they will not be looking at the consumer side of things. It will be more in terms of the industrial Internet of Things (IoT) and other enterprise aspects,” remarked Pathak.

Hotstar plans will give you access to the Mobile subscription only, and not Super or Premium. In addition to allowing access to all the content on the platform, the new Disney+ Hotstar plans also allow users to simultaneously stream content on multiple devices, which was not available prior to this. This brings the service on par with Netflix, which has similar restrictions on simultaneous streaming. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="New content to go with the new plans" comment="subhead" text="New content to go with the new plans">New content to go with the new plans</cmsannotation> In addition to the new plans, Disney+ Hotstar has a new and renewed lineup of shows to go with the announcement. This includes new and returning seasons of Hotstar Specials series like Aarya and City of Dreams, the return of IPL 2021, and the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, among other things.

Since the app was born, it has allowed users to login with a mobile phone number. Now, it has started testing a new feature which allows users to link their email with their WhatsApp account. Mind you, this follows security features which have been recently added like Chat Lock, Device Verification etc. The ability to add your email to your WhatsApp account adds a verification layer to the app, allowing you to use it for account authentication in addition to your mobile number, which was the only option earlier. This feature will likely come in handy when your cellular network coverage is poor or unavailable. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="How to link your email with WhatsApp" comment="subhead" text="How to link your email with WhatsApp">How to link your email with WhatsApp</cmsannotation> <div type="image" title="WhatsApp Email" msid="105410439" hostid="261" caption="&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;You can now link your email to your WhatsApp account&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;"></div> WhatsApp is now allowing users to link their email with their WhatsApp account, here’s how you can do it: <ul><li>Open WhatsApp on your phone and click on your picture to open settings.</li><li>Now, click on “Account” and then click on “Email address”.</li><li>Then, enter your email address and click on “Next”.</li><li>Enter the six-digit OTP received on your email and submit.</li></ul>That’s all you need to do to link your email with your WhatsApp account. The next time you are looking to sign in to your WhatsApp account, you can also receive the six-digit OTP on your email in addition to your number. Do note that you can use any email to link your account and you don’t have to use the email you are using to back up your data. This does not mean that you can create a new account just with an email, without having to verify your phone number. Your number is still the primary login method.
