Episode #387
Tonight, New to The Street TV's Host Jane King welcomes back Sharif El-Gamal, Chief Executive Officer at Soho Properties. From the Nasdaq Marketplace studio, Sharif informs Jane and viewers about his Company's new investment vehicle, the "New York City Structure Finance Fund" ("Fund"). The Fund's investment fundamentals help investors frustrated with the current illiquidity in the markets. Fully collateralized, the Fund has a 12% annual return from real-estate holdings. Sharif, with over 20 years of experience in real estate, says the Fund focuses on excellent NYC Manhattan properties that allow an investor to get involved in a secure debt position with hard assets, real-estate. The Fund will look at all real-estate opportunities, but it likes to look at residential and hospitality assets. With 3rd party valuations from some of the best in the world who determine real-estate values, the Fund looks at a net Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio up to 75%. Sharif explains that if a property has a $100M valuation, the Fund will participate up to $75M. The capital markets dried up after the recent downturn in the investment markets and overall permission from investors and governmental organizations. Banks and other financial institutions are not loaning money. Sharif sees a massive opportunity with the Fund, where investors can participate in NYC real-estate, a hard-asset class, and get a good investment return on collateralized holdings. NYC has some of the best real-estate in the world. Any accredited investor can get involved; visit the website, https://sohoproperties.com/. A Soho Properties Capital Markets Associate will reach out to those interested. The on-screen QR code is available during the show; download or visit Soho Properties – https://sohoproperties.com/.

New to The Street TV, tonight is re-airing Host Jane King's Nasdaq Marketplace studio interview with Faraaz Jamal, CEO, Mikra Cellular Sciences ("Mikra") and COO, Lifeist Wellness, Inc. LFST NXTTF. Mikra is a biosciences and consumer wellness Company that develops innovative therapies for cellular health and is a division of Lifeist Wellness, Inc. Faraaz explains the microscopic cellular level benefits of the Company's CELLF™ product. He recommends CELLF as a more effective alternative to multivitamins and supplements. The unique make-up of CELLF allows it to pass through the digestive system and be absorbed into the mid-small intestine (jejunum) and distributed to cells. As a nutraceutical gel with a buttery-type consistency, the product contains nutrient doses similarly used in other non-related clinical studies. Many other products in today's market contain fillers and other non-essential ingredients that don't contribute to the body's nutritional needs and demands. Faraaz tells viewers that CELLF's consumer demand is so high that being "SOLD-OUT" is not unusual, and Mikra stays busy meeting demands. Currently, the Company sells its product through its e-commerce outlets. It is also working with a larger retailer with an expectation of them accepting CELLF as a new product offering. If you are feeling sluggish and lack energy throughout the day, CELLF can help. Mikra Cellular Sciences is a Lifeist Wellness, Inc. subsidiary that develops, produces, and sells bioactive consumer products.

Object storage software vendor MinIO’s CFO Garima Kapoor claims Nutanix is breaking the terms of its open-source license.
Update: Nutanix provides expanded statement responding to MinIO’s allegations. 21 July 2021.
Kapoor reckons the Nutanix Objects software, introduced in 2018, is built around MinIO object storage. This has not been disclosed to its users, which puts Nutanix, she says, in continued violation of the Apache v2 license and, she believes, the GNU AGPL v3 versions of MinIO.
“For the past three years, we have tried to resolve the license compliance issues in good faith discussions with Nutanix. However, we have not made meaningful progress,” she writes.
“We have informed Nutanix that we are terminating and revoking any license or sublicense under Apache v2 and the AGPL v3 in accordance with the terms of those licenses.” In other words, MinIO is saying Nutanix no longer has the right to distribute its object storage software.
To hammer that nail home more firmly: “We have requested that Nutanix stop the copying and redistribution of any forked software where they have failed to convey MinIO’s original license headers and the text of the license, as well as the included patent and copyright licenses, to its customers.”
From now on, customers using Nutanix Objects “may not be on the latest version of the MinIO Object Storage Software, and… may not be receiving adequate IP licenses from Nutanix” with potenital but undefined legal and security risks.
MinIO backs up its claim by showing how to reveal Nutanix’s use of MinIO software:
The screenshot above shows the MinIO object storage server binary in Nutanix’s object controller pod. Kapoor says: “Nutanix just put a wrapper around a modified version of the MinIO binary inside their object storage platform. Nutanix also did not disclose the usage of MinIO in their Open Source Disclosures or EULA to their customers.”
This is, on the face if it, a disagreement that could be ended in minutes by Nutanix fulfilling the Apache v2 and GNU AGPL v3 license conditions as MinIO desires. Why it has not done so and held up a resolution of this argument for three years is hard to understand. Surely it does not want to appear to be deceiving its customers.
Back in November 2019, we wrote: “Nutanix Buckets S3 adapter software is based on the open source Minio software stack, as this Nutanix document explains.” The link to the Nutanix document now elicits a “Sorry. This page does not exist yet” response.
We asked Nutanix to comment. A spokesperson told us: “Nutanix has a long history of openly documenting our architecture in the freely available Nutanix Bible, and we’re committed to open-source software and stewardship of the open source community, actively participating in various projects. We are surprised by the list of allegations, but we take any allegations seriously and are looking into these claims.”
We have read the Object Services part of the Nutanix Bible and can find no reference to MinIO there.
A second Nutanix statement said: “Nutanix strives to implement unique features and innovative capabilities to delight our customers. In doing so, we recognize the value of the open source communities and take our participation and stewardship very seriously.
“With respect to some recent allegations in a blog that we may have used software in possible violation of an open source license in our Objects product, please note that Nutanix stands behind our products, including any open source that we incorporate into them, and commits to indemnifying our customers against intellectual property claims arising out of the use of our products, should the need ever arise.
“We will be reaching out to engage with the blog’s author promptly and will continue to update the community here.”

Product lifecycle management (PLM) is an enterprise discipline for managing the data and processes involved in the lifecycle of a product, from inception to engineering, design, manufacture, sales and support, to disposal and retirement.
PLM brings together people, data, processes, and business systems to aid an organization’s ability to develop, market, and support its products. It was born at American Motors Corporation (AMC) to speed up the company’s product development process, in particular around the development of the Jeep Grand Cherokee. As part of the process, AMC turned to computer-aided design (CAD) and implemented a product data management scheme in which all drawings and documents were stored in a central database. AMC also added a new communication system to enable better collaboration and reduce the number of engineering changes required. After acquiring AMC, Chrysler implemented PLM throughout its enterprise, resulting in development costs that were half the industry average.
Modern PLM is fundamental to the creation of a digital thread, which software and services company PTC defines as a closed loop between digital and physical worlds, following a single set of related data as it weaves in and out of business processes and functions to enable continuity and accessibility.
Data management company, Active Sensing, says PLM should be thought of as both a repository for all information that affects a product and a communication process between product stakeholders, including marketing, engineering, manufacturing, and field service. As such, PLM as a discipline refers as much to the processes involved in managing a product’s lifecycle as to the technology and data involved in doing so.
To organize the information and processes involved in a product’s lifecycle, most organizations adopt a PLM solution to do the following:
PLM helps organizations get products to market faster, create higher-quality products, improve product safety, increase sales opportunities, and reduce errors and waste.
Investopedia says the benefits of PLM include:
By simplifying, organizing, and integrating data, PLM gives manufacturers a detailed view of each product. PLM solutions vendor Propel says the methodology and solutions can help manufacturers maximize efficiency and profitability in numerous areas:
While product development can be described in many ways, SAP says the typical product development cycle consists of five phases.
Concept and design: This is the ideation phase in which the product is envisioned. A product’s requirements are defined in this phase, based on factors such as competitor analysis, gaps in the market, or customer needs.
Develop: Detailed design of the product occurs in this phase, including necessary tool designs. It includes validation and analysis of the planned product, and prototype development and piloting. This process generates feedback on further necessary refinements.
Production and launch: This phase takes the feedback from the pilot to create a market-ready version of the product. It includes scaling production, launch, and distribution to the market.
Service and support: This phase kicks in after the product launch and includes all customer service and support efforts.
Retirement: This phase occurs at the end.
PLM software helps organizations manage the information and processes of a product or service across the supply chain, including data from items, parts, products, documents, requirements, engineering change orders, and quality workflows. It also enables teams to collaborate with partners and customers. Siemens defines PLM software as an information management system that integrates data, processes, business systems, and people in an extended enterprise. Here are some of the current top PLM vendors, according to Software Testing Help:
Arena’s cloud-based enterprise platform focuses on unified product and quality processes. Its features include integration with ERP, bill of materials (BOM) management, supplier collaboration, compliance management, and more.
Autodesk’s Upchain is a cloud-based product data management and product lifecycle management software that targets small and midsize companies with built-in workflow management and project dashboards. It’s been designed to overlay existing legacy technology such as CAD.
Autodesk also offers Fusion 360 Manage, aimed at three industries: industrial machinery and products, consumer electronics and high-tech, and automotive suppliers and components. It provides real-time access to product data and represents it graphically.
Oracle’s Fusion Cloud PLM platform leverages analytics, IoT, AI, and ML to deliver digital twin and digital thread capabilities.
Propel is a cloud-based PLM system designed to be easy to customize and use. It has quality management, change management, requirements management, BOM management, and project management features.
PTC’s Windchill offers a portfolio of PDM and advanced PLM applications. It boasts an open architecture to make it easy to integrate with other enterprise systems, including IoT.
The SAP PLM application is part of the SAP Business Suite. It’s best known for the ease of creatin of BOM and integration with ERP.
Siemen’s Teamcenter software is aimed at organizations of all sizes and is known for its change management features and CAD integration.
