Mission Statement:  From Asia to Europe to South America to the US to anywhere the future stars of golf are learning the game and competing, Future Golf Stars will find them, rank them, and provide them with a venue to show off their skills.

With a worldwide network of coaches, tournament statisticians, and videographers, we will be able to aggregate all of the great young golfers into one site.

While much of the site will be free, we will have a subscription model for college coaches, recruiters, vendors, sponsors, agents, tournament organizers, and parents.

Every company, institution, and government is relentlessly creating massive amounts of data that need to be archived, secured, managed, hosted, and utilized – and that means that with each passing moment our PremCloud is needed more than ever to provide our remarkable archiving solutions and services.

Capax Discovery’s future is being solidly built on our various data solutions and services powered by the PremCloud.  In our PremCloud, our customers can rely on our solutions and services for the archiving, security, management, access, performance, and hosting of their valuable and ever-increasing data.  

With PremCloud Services, we have identified a key differentiator with our market-leading strategy for adaptive hosting.  Additionally, we have positioned PremCloud Services to be our managed services provider.  ‘Powered by PremCloud’ has enormous potential to go well beyond data archiving.

PremCloud Services provide the resources required for our customers to effectively and securely manage their most valuable asset – their data.  When it comes to providing our world-class solutions and services, the deciding factor in their efficacy relies on the contribution of our PremCloud Services team.  The PremCloud Services team answers the call for all of our customer needs with a speed to performance that exceeds all industry standards.

All in all, PremCloud Services is able to effectively power all aspects of our customer’s archiving needs.  And throughout every variation – our customer always owns their data, it is just a question of how much they want us to manage their archiving solution.  We can provide as little or as much of our PremCloud Services as they need and desire. This is our business. This is our future.

PremCloud Hosting

Simply choosing an appropriate solution for their data archiving still leaves our multinational customers at perilous risk [and, more importantly, without full ownership and control of their data].  Our customer’s data archiving needs can no longer be satisfied by the limitation of simply choosing between a cloud-hosted or on-premise solution – there is a need for a more adaptable hosting alternative.  

Fortunately, our PremCloud has eliminated the disadvantage of having to choose between on-premise and cloud hosted data by presenting a more nimble paradigm for the location of data and the software solutions we offer.  Our advanced PremCloud Hosting perspective speaks directly to the strategic versatility of our hosting alternatives along with the appropriate managed services that we can now provide our customers [especially our multinational customers].  

Whether it is in our customer’s own data center, a data center we provide and manage for them, or a fully hosted presence in one of our PremCloud environments – we can now offer our customers the most advantageous residence and management of their data based on a number of criteria specific to the countries or compliance regions they are operating in.

The days of relying solely on legacy data centers are over.  Our new PremCloud adaptive hosting is spread across multiple, geographically distributed sites and public, private, and hybrid cloud environments.  Building, connecting, and securing this array of computing power is a complex job—and one that requires a new type of data center network, starting with an architecture optimized for the cloud era and an infrastructure that gives our customers agility, automation, and simplicity.

Capax Discovery’s groundbreaking PremCloud provides adaptable data archiving solutions with managed services for our accounts worldwide regardless of where their data resides in our PremCloud.  In our PremCloud, our customers can rely on our software and managed services for the archiving, security, management, hosting, and performance of their valuable and ever-increasing data.

The key is that our customers always truly own their data – while they can rely on us for the security, management, and administrative optic that our market-leading PremCloud based solutions provide.  And what PCAS 1.0 and our newest apps can do with data for our enterprise customers is truly magic – and that magic is powered by the PremCloud.

PremCloud Total Access

Powered by PremCloud is a service model in which data is maintained, managed, backed up remotely, and made available to users over a network through our PremCloud.  Our PremCloud Total Access administrative optic with CISO Sentinel allows our customers total consolidated administrative access to their data, as well as the governance of the entire processing of data coming in and going out of their unified archiving vault.  This dashboard allows for not only a better administrative optic, but it also allows for a more robust use of their valuable archived data for a limitless amount of utilization.

The story of Joe Kreuz started in 1959, but the tale of our remarkable friendship began 25 years ago when we launched Advantage Professionals.  I could write pages about our friendship, but, simply put, when I look up best friend in the dictionary, I see a picture of Joe.

And as much as I enjoy [and count on] on our friendship, this post is about our remarkable partnership.  Over the past twenty-five years, Joe has epitomized and brought to life the Root Philosophy of the Advantage Co more than anyone I have ever built with.

The enduring legacy of our partnership is not the remarkable success of Advantage Professionals, but, more so, the unbelievable tree of success that Joe provided the foundation and enthusiasm for.  Joe was the man who stepped to the plate for everyone we have ever built with.  Mark Pautler, Charlie Chiampou, John Baiocco, Jerry Hawk, Jerry Tenenbaum, Kelly Cultrara, and Tom Thomson all know first hand what it is like to launch a business with Joe Kreuz by their side.  But that’s just a short list of the hundreds of friends Joe has helped.  WNY’s executive suites are filled with people that Joe has nurtured and placed over the years.

So, this is a big thank you from all of us.  Congratulations, Joe, on 25 years as the man who laid the foundation for all of our most successful partnerships.  You are a legend.

There is an interesting article in Fortune this month about the coming recession.  Usually, everyone is blind-sided by a recession, but there are enough talking heads foretelling its arrival that only the most stubborn of investors will be caught with their pants down.

Unfortunately, most businesses will be caught [and ruined].  Businesses are currently caught up in a tsunami of capital investment spurred on by cheap money and unsustainable demand – and they can’t jump off.  Grow or die has been the mantra for the past seven years, and it is hard to accept that it will soon be replaced by slow down and save, but if you are NOT cash strong, liquid, and ready to pounce when the recession does hit – you will be splintered on the rocks as you crash into shore.

Every moron has made money in real estate and the stock market for the past seven years.  This leads to a hubris that fuels every recession.  Con artists think they are brilliant [especially the real estate con artists], and they have seven years of spectacular growth as their witness to their [supposed] magic.  But when the storm hits, and the values drop, and the rents slow to a trickle – the mortgages and taxes still have to be paid.  It’s a slow death, as opposed to a stock market crash that is swift and merciless.

Be prepared.
