Eugrid Announces Cloud Storage CloudDock

To sustain competitiveness, not
only enterprises but any sized organization including local retail
chain stores and government agencies need an environment that allows
their workers to continue working anywhere and anytime, without
compromising security and user experience.

By using CloudDock,
no matter whether the workers are in the office or out for a
month-long international business trip, their working environment is
always with them.

It offers ‘cloud roaming profile’
features, which has combined benefits of cloud storage such as
DropBox, SkyDrive, and Google Drive, and enterprise security control.

Eugrid K.K.’s virtualization technology is
at the core of the system. The user profile including user’s
desktop, documents, pictures, etc., is separated and isolated from
the local device, and stored in the cloud. At the same time, the
local device is secured and managed, allowing IT administrators to
control how user data, including organization-owned data, should be
used.

Storing user profile in the cloud
brings benefits into IT administrator and users’ hands.

Ubiquity Multi-Device Capability
Files and folders created in the office are stored in the cloud,
without any user aware synchronization. These files can be accessed
from other devices, including iPad.

Network Flexibility
Unlike
remote desktop and VDI, it can be used under unstable network
conditions, and by enabling encrypted cache, user profile can be
accessed without any network connection. Tailored for heavy mobile
users who can’t always expect good internet connection during the
trip.

DR and BCP user profile centralized in
the cloud storage means that device and user profile is no longer
stuck together, allowing users to change the device and keep working
in case of emergencies such as hardware trouble or device loss.

Since the cloud storage holds all user
profiles in one place, creating a backup of the whole organization is
a simple task. Replicating to a geographically remote location will
enable a DR plan. Even if PCs and the main data center hosting the
cloud storage are lost from a natural disaster, all that users have
to do is to get a PC and login to the replicated cloud storage.

Branch control from the HQs’ point of
view, branch offices and local retail stores could be regarded as
mobile environment in a broader sense. Information such as customer
lists and credit card numbers can be collected to the headquarter and
managed securely. Ability to login from any device makes inter-branch
personnel change also a simple task.
