For your information, Huawei Power Module 3.0 (AKA PowerPOD 3.0) is a power-oriented solution. The company launched the effective product in May this year at the Next-Generation Data Facility launch event.

The solution is quite reliant and durable in terms of use. It is compact, consumes 70% less power, and is a time-saving solution for operators. Besides, its highly-dense components make it more versatile for industrial usage.

As of now, Huawei Power Module 3.0 has completed the third-party whole machinery test. TÜV SÜD is a worldwide popular test center. The organization tests the data center-based solutions and certifies them accordingly.

The latest input reveals that Huawei took on the whole machine test and the results are quite accurate to the expectations. Consequently, Power Module 3.0 has qualified all the aspects of this test with good grades.

Huawei Power Module 3.0 test results

The test has covered several subjects for the respective solution. For instance: system efficiency, switching mode test, system reliability and maintenance, and software function test.

• System Efficiency: The result shows that the latest power supply system can exhibit 97.8% of efficiency even under high-load scenarios. This can easily beat the efficiency level of regular systems.
• Switching Mode Test: Eventually, the solution can easily shift to all the switching modes in 0ms. Even at times of abnormal input functioning, the system will automatically shift on the double conversion or the battery mode and will provide hindrance-free performance.
• Reliability and Maintenance: Despite high pressure and different temperature points, the result are good enough. The details show that the solution can work conveniently at 0 to 40-degree celsius. Further, the product is easy and simple to carry out the maintenance process.
• Software Function: Huawei Power Module 3.0 (2.5MW) supports a bunch of thoughtful features. Such as Power function, full-chain visibility, switch tuning, AI low-load high-temperature prediction, and other functions.

In every manner, the device has successfully qualified for the whole machinery test and obtained the corresponding certificate.

To those who are unaware, user choice billing enables Android app developers to use their own payment systems instead of Google’s. As a result, developers no more need Google’s in-built system to hold payment actions in their apps.

To be specific, users will have the choice to either use the Google Play Store’s in-app purchasing system or the developer’s payment system while buying in-app content (in supported countries).

The tech maker initiated the user choice billing beta tests in September. At that time, the company rolled out the pilot stage in Australia, EEA (European Economic Area), India, Indonesia, and Japan.

After the fruitful outcomes, Google Play Store has pushed off the user choice billing test in the US, Brazil, and South Africa. Alongside this, the latest expansion will make the user choice billing available in 35 regions worldwide.

 Spotify – the first pilot tester

Further, Google informed that Spotify is the first third-party app that has begun billing alternative testing. Thereafter, the Bumble application also joined this recruitment process.

After the stable implementation, Android users will catch a new user interface on Spotify and other apps. This user interface will permit users to choose how they want to pay for monthly or other subscription packages.

Requirements:

On the other hand, developers who want to adopt the user choice billing system in their applications, need to follow some major guidelines of Google. As per these regulations, developers must show separate screens for the billing options.

Further, the billing screen must be visible before every purchase. Aside, developers must fulfill the below-given requirements:

• Your app must be a non-gaming mobile or tablet app
• The developer must be a registered business
• Implement trust and safety requirements, and user experience guidelines when available
• Only offer user choice billing to mobile and tablet users in announced pilot countries
• Comply with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS) (if handling credit and debit card data)

To get more detailed information about these guidelines, click HERE.

According to Google’s words, this is just the beginning and the company will continue to expand the new billing alternative testing in more regions in the time ahead.

That’s not an assumption or speculation, but a fact. The report is coming from the table of Incogni cooperation. Consequently, the researchers have made a giant leap in the Google Play Store and found that approx 55.2 percent of apps are sharing users’ data in an irrelevant manner.

Surprisingly, those apps that do not charge a fee share seven times more of the data in comparison to their paid parts. The same is with the popularity mode. Those apps that are more famous among users transmit more data than unpopular applications.

To make a good search on which apps are employed in this sharing field, Incogni has gone into the depths of the Google Play data safety section. The company published these details in July this year regarding the security practices of app developers.

These apps affect your data!

Consequently, apps falling in the category of shopping, business, food, and drinks services collect and share most of the user’s data. However, a large amount of data goes into the social media and business applications section.

Although, Google specifically mentions that the definition of sharing is quite different in the technical field. Also, this definition does not include the transfer of data to a service provider. This means, till the time you will become aware of your information, it will end up transferring to another system.

Some apps follow safety regulations and do not transmit encrypted info. Yet, again the point is the same as how to identify which app is taking more of the information. The US tech giant hasn’t made any word till now on this matter. But, it’s important to understand the theory of Google behind the term ‘sharing data’.
