Deploy faster and scale massively in the cloud 

 

Applications built on SmartCloud's Cognitive Reasoning Engine (CRex) are optimized for cloud deployment. Applications can also be deployed in hybrid configurations on local servers and the cloud. Use of the cloud eliminates the need for building and maintaining IT infrastructures to meet the scale and variability of unexpected processing demands. SmartCloud’s cloud-based solutions also enhance system resilience.

 

SmartCloud supports multiple virtual operating system instances in the cloud. Compared to hardware-bound, dedicated computers, SmartCloud allows much quicker and easier migration from test environments to live operation.

 

CRex’s AI agent architecture enables massive scale-up in the cloud. Coordinated by logic flow orchestration, communities of agents can be spawned and coordinated on multiple virtual machines in the cloud. Working together, these agents can process of large amounts of data and deliver deep reasoning power.  

 

Microsoft Azure-ready

 

SmartCloud participates in Microsoft's BizSpark Plus program and is extensively experienced in building and deploying Azure-powered cloud solutions, including virtual machines and business intelligence tools, as well as development, testing, and storage solutions.   

 

Secure cloud computing

 

SmartCloud's cloud computing centers are highly resilient and secure. Company practices adhere to the North American Electric Reliability Corporation's (NERC) Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) standards.  

 

For the most demanding cloud computing security requirements, SmartCloud offers end-to-end dedicated and secure connection configurations. These configurations offer real-time communication using the Inter-Control Center Communications Protocol (ICCP), Distributed Network Protocol (DNP3), and other standards widely used in the electric utility industry for communication between control centers and equipment.
