Cloudpaging leader Numecent® today announced that it has entered into a partnership with Hexagon Geospatial. With this, Hexagon Geospatial will be deploying Numecent’s cloudpaging services initially to provision the company’s ERDAS IMAGINE and GeoMedia applications from the cloud. Producer Online, which includes IMAGINE Online and GeoMedia Online will be launched during HxGN Live in Las Vegas, Jun 1-4, which Numecent is also participating in as a silver sponsor.
Cloudpaging is Numecent’s unique virtualization and containerization platform which excels in dynamic and friction-free provisioning of any Microsoft® Windows® application directly to physical or virtual desktops without installation and without streaming any pixels. Through cloudpaging, ISVs, Cloud Service Providers and Enterprises can substantially reduce the server, storage, network and IT footprint of native applications delivered from the cloud or on-premises.
“We are very pleased that major ISVs such as Hexagon Geospatial are deploying cloudpaging across multiple product lines in their portfolio,” said Tom Lagatta, President and CEO of Numecent. “Both ERDAS IMAGINE and GeoMedia are class-leading and complex native applications for which cloud delivery was not a realistic option prior to cloudpaging. Numecent and Hexagon have been working well together the past few months to make cloud provisioning a reality for these applications and a smooth experience for their users.”
“Numecent’s Native-as-a-Service cloudpaging platform enables us to reduce provisioning times by orders of magnitude while allowing us to offer our applications world-wide from the cloud with minimal IT footprint,” said Mladen Stojic, President of Hexagon GeoSpatial. “Such friction-free provisioning also enables us to explore new business horizons which were not possible before.”
“I have always been impressed with Numecent’s cloudpaging solutions and it is good to see visionary ISVs like Hexagon embracing Numecent’s unique value propositions – especially for those complex GPU-centric applications that often require hand-holding the user,” said Dr. Jon Peddie, Principal of Jon Peddie Research. “I expect to see many more ISVs rolling out cloudpaging-based offerings in the near future.”
