Web-based Grid Solutions

Running your application on our grid technology is actually far simpler than using traditional hardware. With our web-based grid solutions, there's never any hardware to deploy, configure or maintain. The grid assembles all the infrastructure pieces needed on-demand, configures them and runs your application on top. When you’re done, you simply “turn down” the infrastructure resources, which can then be assigned to other areas as needed.

Our grid technology also provides universal high-availability, and application-level snapshots that make entire applications available for one-click deployment. Our solutions revolutionize running online applications by providing you with unprecedented control and visibility of the infrastructure.
