Vembu @ HostingCon2010

by gokul on July 20th, 2010

We are at the HostingCon 2010 in Austin, Texas and the atmosphere here is fantastic. We are excited about showing off the latest in Vembu StoreGrid for service providers.

Check out our booth #326, we’ll be showing off the latest in our product for managed hosting providers. A very good reason to do this is because Jay, our VP of Storage Services will be around to take questions on online backups and the latest in storage technology.

1) In the ‘latest’ category, the Flex Light interface for desktops and laptops is currently in beta and is soon to be released for production use.  This is based on Adobe Flex for a snazzy user interface. You can download the Light Client for StoreGrid v3.1 over here.

2) Also, StoreGrid now sports Connectwise 2010 PSA integration for easy monitoring for service tickets.  We are also working on integrating with WHMCS, AutoTask, TigerPaw and Level Platforms!  Download the early beta here.

3) For our Hosting Provider partners, we are working on Plesk and cPanel integration for easy management of backups.

4) Currently StoreGrid supports virtual environment backups. We are integrating with VMWare and HyperV APIs for more comprehensive backup & recovery features for virtual machines.

Drop by our booth to register for early preview beta of these features.  Booth Number: 326
Hope to see you in Austin – at our booth or around the Convention center!

The future of usability is almost here

Remember Minority Report and the cool way in which Tom Cruise used computers. Or Harry Potter with its video embedded in newspapers?

It’s here – and will cost less than $350

We obsess a fair bit about user interfaces & usability. This TED video from MIT’s Media Labs just blew our mind. Check it out. I promise you’ll be impressed.

All Clouds are not Equal

Some time ago, we’d written about David Chappell’s talk on Windows Azure, and why it was different. I’d also mentioned that I’d share the slide deck once I got it from David. Here it is.

(the ppt is cued to slide 27 which is where the fun stuff begins – the comparisons with other platforms. As we said earlier, the ‘neutrality’ with which this was presented was refreshing)

Vembu Technologies partners with Caringo

by lenin on May 12th, 2009

We’ve been talking to the folks at Caringo for some time now, and have been playing around with each other’s products at our respective labs. We’re now glad to ‘formally’ announce our alliance! A detailed press release can viewed here and a ’solution page’ explaining the joint solution in more detail is available here.

If you’re short on time, here’s a summary:

You can now store your (backed up) data in your own Cloud or clustered storage using Caringo CAStor. With the help of CAStor you can convert any in house x86 hardware to a clustered storage device. Storage clusters can be built on blades, towers, PCs and servers.

The integration of Vembu and Caringo technology delivers a robust online backup solution for service providers and distributed organizations looking at data protection for remote office locations.

You’ll be seeing a lot more of this – StoreGrid supporting leading cloud platforms. We launched our Amazon ready solution recently, and will be announcing another couple of partnerships very soon; watch this space!

Meanwhile, here’s a brief video that explains some more about the “StoreGrid+Caringo” solution…
