China, 11th May 2026, – ZimaCube 2: A Self-Hosting Powerhouse

IceWhale Technology Launches ZimaCube 2: A Self-Hosting Powerhouse

The era of the NAS as a passive file vault is ending. As local AI, self-hosted services, and edge computing move into the home, what users need is not more storage but more compute, with storage built in. IceWhale Technology today announced the ZimaCube 2, a self-hosting platform powered by Intel 12th Gen Core processors, dual open PCIe expansion, Thunderbolt 4, and ZimaOS. Three configurations are available: Standard ($799), Pro ($1,299), and Creator Pack ($2,499), shipping now at shop.zimaspace.com.

The NAS industry is splitting into two paths: closed ecosystems that sell you subscriptions, or open platforms that let you own everything. We chose open. ZimaCube 2 ships with unlocked PCIe slots, community-driven software, and enough compute to run local AI, because the next decade of NAS is about what your hardware can do, not just what it can store,” said Lauren Pan, CEO of IceWhale.

Powered by ZimaOS: Self-Hosting Without the Sysadmin Tax

ZimaCube 2 ships with ZimaOS pre-installed, a Docker-native OS refined through over 4 million downloads. Users get a visual app store with one-click deployment for Plex, Jellyfin, Immich, Nextcloud, Home Assistant, and 800+ more. ZimaOS also mounts existing NAS volumes, cloud drives, and USB disks into one unified file manager, so users can bring scattered data home without migrating everything at once. TrueNAS, Proxmox, Unraid, Ubuntu, and Windows are also supported on the same x86 hardware.

Open Expansion: Inside and Out

Where many NAS vendors lock down PCIe or solder in fixed accelerators, ZimaCube 2 leaves both slots open: 1x PCIe 4.0 (x16, 4-lane) and 1x PCIe 3.0 (x8, 2-lane) for a GPU, transcoder, 25GbE NIC, or NVMe expansion card. Dual Thunderbolt 4 ports provide DAS-level direct-connect to a Mac or PC with zero network setup.

Who It’s For

ZimaCube 2 is built for homelab enthusiasts consolidating single-purpose devices into one always-on system, creators who need 10 GbE and GPU-ready expansion, and privacy-conscious households who want data stored on hardware they own. No cloud account, no monthly fee.

Hardware Tuned for Storage and Self-Hosting

Intel 12th Gen Core processors pair Performance cores for burst compute with Efficiency cores for always-on background services. DDR5 provides the memory bandwidth multi-service workloads demand. Dual Thunderbolt 4 ports, The 6+4 hybrid storage architecture combines 4x M.2 NVMe slots and 6x 3.5″ SATA bays in one chassis, over 212TB of raw capacity. Three tiers share this foundation:

ZimaCube 2 ($799) — Intel Core i3-1215U (6 cores, 4.4 GHz), 8 GB DDR5 (expandable to 64 GB), 256 GB NVMe, dual 2.5 GbE. Ready to run a full self-hosting stack out of the box.

ZimaCube 2 Pro ($1,299) — Intel Core i5-1235U (10 cores, 12 threads, 4.4 GHz), 16 GB DDR5 (expandable to 64 GB), 4x M.2 NVMe at 3,200 MB/s, onboard 10 GbE. The sweet spot for self-hosting at scale.

ZimaCube 2 Creator Pack ($2,499) — Same i5 platform maxed to 64 GB DDR5, 1 TB NVMe, plus NVIDIA RTX PRO 2000 pre-installed. A complete local AI and media workstation, ready on first boot.

ZimaCube 2 is available now at shop.zimaspace.com.

About IceWhale / Zima

IceWhale builds open hardware and community-driven software to help every household own its own NAS. The Discord community has grown to 30,000+ members, and ZimaOS has been downloaded over 4 million times. ZimaOS is a private-cloud operating system that consolidates scattered data into one dashboard. ZimaBoard and ZimaBlade are compact home-server platforms for self-hosting at a lower entry point.

United States, 11th May 2026, Imagination is Imagination is the New Frontier of Creation—Hailuo in Cannes

MiniMax Hailuo Showcases AI-Powered Creative Vision at Cannes During WAIFF 2026

As a global partner of World AI Film Festival (WAIFF 2026) and the co-initiator of the Chinese Special Track, MiniMax Hailuo took the center stage in Cannes.

All greatness in human history begins with creation. We unveiled our 2026 brand video—brought to life by our multimodal models—dedicated to the audience in Cannes and to every soul brave enough to create, to embark, and to evolve.

Where Technology Meets Tradition: Reimagining Eastern Aesthetics in Cannes.

MiniMax Hailuo and Stellar Pictures have joined forces to create the animated music video The Fleeting Beauty, featuring a special vocal performance by singer Esther Yu.

The project achieves a mastery of intricate light and subtle expression, weaving ink-wash textures and classical Chinese symbols into a fluid cinematic language. Through the lens of AI, it bridging the gap between ancient ink-wash traditions and the future of digital expression.

“Watching and hearing my music in such a special stage is truly special,” shared Esther Yu. “In any creative work, emotion is the heartbeat. No matter how the medium evolves, it is always the soul of the story that ultimately moves people.”

“I don’t view AI as a force that changes culture; rather, it is a breakthrough technology that allows fantasy.” said Yixu Wang, Founder and CEO of Stellar Pictures. “We remain committed to deep-rooting AI—not just to enhance visual realism, but to give Eastern aesthetics a more vivid expression. By extending these capabilities into high-end animation, we aim to push the very boundaries of what imagination can achieve.” 

MiniMax Hailuo Showcases AI-Powered Creative Vision at Cannes During WAIFF 2026

Technology Answers the “How,” but Humans Answer “What is good.”

On the stage of Cannes, we engaged with global creators on a topic: The history of creation has been a history of compromise. For too long, creators have sacrificed their vision due to the limitations of tools.

Our mission is not just to provide tools, but to build a bridge between a creator’s mind and the screen. We believe the only limit to a film should be the director’s taste and inspiration, not the boundaries of technical capability. MiniMax Hailuo Showcases AI-Powered Creative Vision at Cannes During WAIFF 2026

Our panel also featured the internationally renowned AI creative team, The Dor Brothers, who showcased their latest collaboration with Hailuo, Death Lane.

When watching the film, people’s first instinct isn’t to ask about “What model was used?” or “What was the prompt?” —it is to wonder: Where does the story go next?

The Dor Brothers are pioneers in merging wild imagination with technology. As Yonatan Dor shared on stage: “The biggest challenge in creation is performance. Technology will always scale new heights, but great content is rooted in human emotional connection. AI will never truly replace the creator. There is a world of difference between viral hits and high-quality storytelling; only the latter endures.” 

MiniMax Hailuo Showcases AI-Powered Creative Vision at Cannes During WAIFF 2026

From ink-wash animation to avant-garde experimental videos, our video model-Hailuo carries both the expression of traditional eastern aesthetics and the diverse dreams of global creators.

Ruby Yang, Oscar-voting member and winner of the 79th Academy Award for Best Documentary Short Subject, has been observing the growth of AI cinema through the professional eye of a veteran filmmaker. At Palais des Festivals, Professor Yang presented the “MiniMax Hailuo× BEST AI FEATURE FILM” award to Napoleon III: Le Prix de l’Audace. MiniMax Hailuo Showcases AI-Powered Creative Vision at Cannes During WAIFF 2026 MiniMax Hailuo Showcases AI-Powered Creative Vision at Cannes During WAIFF 2026

From São Paulo to Seoul, Kyoto to Beijing, and finally to Cannes—over the past few months, we have accompanied creators from across the globe through five major milestones, journeying from the very first frame to the steps of the Palais. Out of nearly 2,000 submissions from China, we brought 25 award-winning works directly to Cannes to be screened alongside the world’s most elite stage, also providing creators with opportunities to engage with international distributors and producers, securing potential support for future project development.

Among the highlights, A Dollar Story by Chinese director Sheng Qiu clutched the ‘BEST AI ACTION FILM’ award in the main competition. Qiu shared his reflections: “The most moving moment was watching the whole film with the audience at the Théâtre Debussy. It has been a dreamlike journey, and I look forward to even more wondrous encounters with AI.”

Moving forward, we will launch a dedicated WAIFF showcase on our official website and app, featuring a curated selection of global entries—bringing the magic of Cannes directly to your screen. MiniMax Hailuo Showcases AI-Powered Creative Vision at Cannes During WAIFF 2026

From a single spark of inspiration to the stage of Cannes, we have walked alongside creators as more than just a “tool” or a “model”. We are here to liberate creation from the constraints of technology and let imagination take center stage.

Greatness Starts with Creation. Imagination is Productivity.

Intelligence with Everyone.

CPR Auto Glass Repair celebrates 20 years of trusted auto glass service in Southern California, highlighting customer safety, mobile windshield repair solutions, and seasonal driving awareness for local drivers.

United States, 11th May 2026, – Murrieta, CA – May 7, 2026 – CPR Auto Glass Repair is proud to celebrate its 20th anniversary as a trusted provider of professional auto glass services for drivers throughout Southern California. Since opening in 2006, the company has built a strong reputation for quality workmanship, fast response times, and dependable customer care.
 

Over the past two decades, CPR Auto Glass Repair has helped thousands of customers with windshield repairs, glass replacements, and mobile auto glass solutions designed to keep vehicles safe and road-ready. The company continues to serve local communities with a customer-first approach and a commitment to high industry standards.

As part of its anniversary celebration and seasonal visibility campaign, CPR Auto Glass Repair is encouraging drivers to inspect their windshields for chips and cracks before summer travel begins. Warmer temperatures, road debris, and increased highway driving can cause small windshield damage to spread quickly if left untreated.

“Our 20-year milestone represents the trust our customers have placed in us over the years,” said Keith Johnson of CPR Auto Glass Repair. “We’ve always focused on honest service, quality repairs, and helping drivers stay safe on the road.

Post Oak Group, a Houston-based investment bank recognized as the top middle-market investment bank in Texas, is bringing $82 billion in transaction experience directly to the middle market, redefining what institutional-grade advisory looks like for a segment of the market that has long deserved better.

Houston, Texas, United States, 11th May 2026 – Post Oak Group, a Houston-based investment bank recognized as the top middle-market investment bank in Texas, is bringing $82 billion in transaction experience directly to the middle market, redefining what institutional-grade advisory looks like for a segment of the market that has long deserved better. 

With a team carrying more than 250 years of combined experience across capital markets and M&A, the firm has built a platform that delivers the depth, rigor, and execution quality of the largest institutions in the business, without the trade-offs in senior attention that those institutions routinely ask clients to accept.

A Platform Built on Proven Experience

For decades, the most experienced investment bankers in the country concentrated their careers at the top of the market, advising on mega-cap transactions for the world’s largest corporations. Middle-market companies, despite representing the backbone of the U.S. economy, were largely left with a second tier of advisory options. Post Oak Group was built to close that gap.

The firm’s leadership team brings more than 250 years of combined experience across capital markets and M&A, experience earned at institutions operating at the highest levels of global finance. That depth of expertise is now applied directly to middle-market clients, through a platform that delivers the analytical rigor, process discipline, and execution quality typically associated with bulge bracket banks, without the trade-offs in senior attention that those institutions routinely ask clients to accept.

“The middle market deserves the same caliber of advice and execution that large-cap companies receive,” said David Chua, Managing Partner of Mergers & Acquisitions at Post Oak Group. “Geography has never been a barrier for us. What matters is the quality of the work and the results we deliver, and that doesn’t change based on zip code.”

Senior-Led Execution, Every Step of the Way

At most larger institutions, the senior bankers who win the business hand the engagement off once the ink is dry. At Post Oak Group, that dynamic does not exist. The firm’s partner-led execution model keeps senior professionals actively involved at every stage of a transaction, from initial positioning through final closing. Every engagement benefits from experienced judgment at the moments that matter most, not just at the pitch.

This approach is especially valuable in complex situations. Whether a company is navigating a first-time sale process, a cross-border acquisition, or a recapitalization with multiple stakeholders involved, having seasoned bankers engaged throughout leads to materially better outcomes. Post Oak Group’s track record of more than $82 billion in completed transactions across 12 countries is a direct reflection of what that model produces over time.

A Global Reach Rooted in Houston

Post Oak Group operates a fully integrated platform spanning capital markets and M&A advisory, with approximately 300 professionals across advisory, execution, research, operations, and support functions. The firm serves clients nationally and internationally, with capital partners and relationships spanning North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia, and Australia.

Houston has provided a strong foundation, a city with deep roots in energy, healthcare, manufacturing, technology, and logistics that has shaped generations of sophisticated business operators. But Post Oak Group’s ambitions and its client base have always extended well beyond Texas. The firm’s recognition as the top middle-market investment bank in Texas reflects a platform that has earned its reputation across the full breadth of the market, not just regionally.

“We originally set out to build a focused boutique, but the market demanded a broader platform,” said Alex Treistman, Managing Partner of the Capital Markets practice. “We’ve responded by scaling without compromising the quality or attention each mandate receives.”

Noida, Uttar Pradesh, 11th May 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Most businesses already know they need a stronger digital presence. What they struggle to find is someone who can actually deliver it — reliably, affordably, and without the usual runaround. Seospidy Web Solution, a full-service digital agency based in Noida, has spent years quietly becoming exactly that company for hundreds of clients across the NCR region and beyond.

The agency handles everything from ground-up website builds to long-term SEO campaigns, social media management, e-commerce platforms, and integrated digital marketing strategies. It’s a broad mandate, but Seospidy has made a strong case that doing all of it well — for the same client, with a consistent team — produces better results than stitching together multiple vendors.

Websites That Work, Not Just Websites That Exist
A surprising number of businesses in Noida are still running on websites that load slowly, look dated on mobile, or simply fail to convert visitors into enquiries. Seospidy’s website design in Noida service starts from a different premise entirely: a website isn’t a brochure, it’s a sales tool. Every project begins with a clear conversation about business goals, target audience, and what the site actually needs to accomplish — and the design follows from that, not the other way around.

The result is websites that are fast, mobile-optimised, visually sharp, and structured with SEO in mind from day one. Clients aren’t handed a finished product and left to figure it out — the team walks through everything, ensures the client is comfortable managing their own content, and stays available after launch.

SEO That Builds Rankings You Can Rely On
Search engine optimisation is one of those services where the difference between a good agency and a bad one doesn’t show up immediately — it shows up six months later when rankings either hold firm or quietly disappear. Seospidy’s SEO services in Noida are built entirely on white-hat, sustainable techniques: thorough keyword research, on-page optimisation, technical audits, quality link building, and content that actually earns its place on the page.

Clients receive monthly reports that don’t hide behind jargon — just clear data on rankings, traffic movement, and what’s being done to push things forward. For many businesses, Seospidy is the first SEO partner that’s ever explained what they’re actually paying for.

Social Media That Builds Brand, Not Just Noise
Social media is easy to do poorly and genuinely difficult to do well at scale. Posting content that looks professional, reads well, resonates with the right audience, and actually drives business outcomes requires more than a Canva template and a posting schedule. Seospidy’s social media marketing in Noida practice is built around brand storytelling — finding the authentic voice of a business and expressing it consistently across platforms.

Whether a client needs organic content management, paid social campaigns, influencer coordination, or a full community management setup, the team handles it with creative rigour and a strong eye for what actually performs. Engagement numbers are tracked, strategies are adjusted, and nothing is run on autopilot.

E-Commerce Platforms Built to Sell
The jump from a standard business website to a fully operational e-commerce store is significant — technically, strategically, and operationally. Seospidy’s e-commerce development in Noida service is designed to make that transition as smooth as possible. The team builds on proven platforms, implements clean checkout flows, integrates payment gateways, and sets up inventory and order management systems that actually make sense to the business owners using them.

More importantly, every e-commerce project is built with conversion in mind — page speed, product presentation, trust signals, mobile UX — the details that separate stores that sell from stores that just exist online.

Digital Marketing Strategy That Connects the Dots
Individual services only go so far. The businesses that grow fastest online are the ones with an integrated strategy — where the website, the SEO, the social media, and the paid campaigns all reinforce each other. Seospidy’s digital marketing services in Noida bring all of these threads together into a coherent, measurable growth plan. The team takes time to understand where a business currently stands, where it wants to go, and what the realistic roadmap looks like to get there.

For clients who’ve previously worked with agencies that operate in silos — one team for the website, another for ads, another for SEO — the Seospidy model is a noticeably different experience. One team, shared context, aligned goals.

Built for Noida, Scaled for India
Seospidy’s roots are in Noida, and that local grounding matters. The team understands the business landscape of the NCR — the competitive industries, the audience expectations, the pace at which things move. That local knowledge, combined with capabilities that scale to national campaigns, makes Seospidy a strong fit for businesses at very different stages of growth.

The agency is continuing to expand its client base and service offerings in 2025, with a particular focus on helping small and mid-sized businesses in Noida and Greater Noida build the kind of digital infrastructure that supports real, sustained growth. For business owners who’ve been putting off taking their digital presence seriously, Seospidy makes a compelling case for why now is the right time to start.
