Server Rentals: A Socially-Driven Server Appliance Solution Arises

Virtualization. Cloud computing. What does it all mean? The terms are often used interchangeably, synonymously, and in varying degrees of accuracy.

In essence, the purpose of it all is to be able to host applications “in the cloud” – that is to say, out there in the middle of the netherworld.

Cloud computing is a booming business, with many companies purchasing their own servers or choosing to rent cloud space from third party vendors. So the constantly evolving server market often has to play catchup to keep track of the market’s cloud needs.

Vcopious, a virtualization platform designed to integrate elements from CRM, e-commerce, social and digital media and mobile access into a single usable interface, has developed a server appliance that may be the first of its kind.

The server appliance solution, known as VC2, can handle up to 5,000 concurrent users and 8 instances. But it can also be configured into an enterprise solution supporting up to 30,000 concurrent users and 20 instances.

So what is vcopious new VC2 server appliance really capable of (besides network/hosted enterprise deployment)?

Ken Hayward, CEO of vcopious, said “The vcopious resident application for aggregating digital assets and social media, within immersive 'spaces,' has applications that range from product launches, customer service portals, and hybrid conferences, to employee training and virtual branding events."

At its core, this means that the VC2 can connect, engage and track back-end user metrics while offering the cost reduction appeal of a new-age server appliance.

Harpreet Chatha, vcopous’ chief technical officer, has nothing but faith in his company’s solution. Chatha said, "We've assembled a socially-driven business ecosystem to deliver an enriched multi-layer experience for our customers. From persistent web environments to virtual conferences, the VC2 server appliance enables enterprises to seamlessly connect relevant internal assets, including e-commerce, CRM, customer records, social media, learning management systems and contact centers, all the while collecting every user activity within the platform."
