As a premier Houston IT consulting company, AVATAR Managed Services offers a comprehensive range of services to support a business with its information technology needs, ranging from cybersecurity compliance through to a strategy to move away from a data center and beyond. Every company is unique and yet increasingly businesses across multiple business sectors have IT-related themes in common, two of which are dependence on information technology in order to carry out day-to-day operations and the need to protect and safeguard client data from cyberattacks and attempts to steal that data. A proactive IT strategy helps a business budget for the future with step-by-step enhancements to keep the company ahead of cyber threats while simultaneously upgrading infrastructure and harnessing cutting-edge IT tools and programs to automate repetitive tasks and monitoring. As Houston cybersecurity solution providers, AVATAR Managed Services have extensive experience across industry sectors including law firms, manufacturing companies, healthcare facilities, banking institutions, professional services, construction, engineering, energy, transport, and more. The starting point is usually a baseline IT assessment which AVATAR has developed and tuned over time to gauge the overall health of existing infrastructure technology performance and effectiveness. These indicators are quantitative and can be repeated over time to demonstrate the results of change and return on investment. A holistic approach is essential, with staff processes and procedures fully in scope for review and development. At times of stress in particular, after a cyber attack has been detected for instance, AVATAR's Computer Incident Response Team assumes command of the next actions to be taken, mitigating threats and minimizing risk moving forward in terms of cyber security, staff training, and reputation management. With IT operations a critical pillar of many businesses and with the need to have an online presence at all times, AVATARs security operations center operates 24x7x365, covering all business hours, weekends, and holidays. Once the assessment has been translated into a roadmap and plans, the next phase is implementation. Progress can be measured and plans should always be reviewed to ensure the option initially mapped out is still the best, this is because in the rapidly changing landscape of IT, new products may be launched or prices may fluctuate. Following the implementation of improvements and even after gaining cybersecurity compliance, ongoing maintenance and proactive enhancements are a sound investment for the future of the business.

In this 21st century, mankind is blessed with multifarious advanced technologies for nearly everything which makes life simpler. Similarly, there are cooking appliances, which make cooking easy, convenient and environment-friendly. Induction cooktops can be considered as one of the advanced technological innovations that work on electricity and is extremely safe to cook food effortlessly. Induction cooktops, also known as induction hobs, use induction technology to generate electromagnetic field and transfer heat directly to the bottom of the metal vessel that must be made of ferrous metals such as cast iron or steel. Since, the cooking pan or vessel is heated by a magnetic field rather than heating the bottom of the cooking vessel with an electric heating element or flame, energy wastage by heating up the surrounding air around the cooking vessel is very less and it makes the induction cooktop energy efficient. The cooking surface of induction cooktops are generally made from tough, heat resistant ceramic or glass.

Dry vacuum pumps do not use any type of fluid to create a vacuum or contact the process gas. Their design is characterized by timing gears with oil reservoirs and close clearances between the rotors and housing. All types of dry vacuum pumps run hot, as there is no liquid to remove the heat created by compression of the gas. Engagement of a cooling jacket to normalize the dry vacuum pump's internal temperature is done to prevent excessive heating of the pump, which could cause pump failure. Cast iron or ductile iron are low-cost materials of construction, which provide an economical advantage to the manufacture of dry vacuum pumps. This has also been leading to affordable costs and thereby increased popularity of dry vacuum pumps, along with the added benefit of limited rise of heat inside them.

Thioesters falls under the category of antioxidants and getting adopted in numerous number of industries. Antioxidants are the material which are used and added as an additives in many hydrocarbons or organic material which are vulnerable to oxidation such as plastics, rubbers, foods, oil to name a few. Due to oxidation these material lost their properties and leads to degradation, discoloration, rancidity sudden variations in melting viscosity, and declining of mechanical properties. Thioesters slows down the rate of oxidation and improves the operating life of the above said organic material. On commercial level thioesters is produced and formulated by the esterification of carboxylic acid and thiol. In the market place different class of antioxidants such as amines, phosphites, amines to name a few are available but thioesters is gaining adoption because of its high solubility and higher degree of antioxidant properties especially in the protection of rubber, synthetic fiber, plastics and petroleum products. Plastics and rubbers now a days is turning over a chief ingredient for the product making that find acceptance in many number of industries. With increased adoption of these organic material the demand for thioesters increases significantly across the globe

The history of cable insulation dates way back to the late 18th century, when vulcanized rubber was used for insulation of wires to be used in high voltage circuits. It was then, in 1895, that mass impregnated paper insulated medium voltage cables became commercial for numerous applications. With advancements in technology, there were numerous other insulation materials being introduced to cope with the increasing demand for superior quality wire and cable insulation for use in high voltage applications. Furthermore, electrical wires are somewhat flexible, owing to which they require sheaths and insulation to withstand the forces of repeated abrasion and flexing. Attributing to this, heat shrink tubing and sleeves are becoming a popular alternative for insulation of cables and wires across the globe.

A two wheeler seat, also known as a saddle in some parts of the world, is nothing but a provision for the rider and passenger to sit on. The seat attached to a two wheeler is sturdy in construction, lightweight and able to support the weight of the rider. The manufacturers involved in the production of two wheeler seats prioritize the safety and comfort of the riders, thereby developing seats that impart very less fatigue on a longer run. The importance of seat ergonomics thus has led to innovations resulting in weight reduction of the two wheelers as well as incorporation of the aesthetics of two wheeler design into the seat design.
