Kaseya Receives Patent for Technology That Delivers Dynamic Instruction Sets to Remote Devices

LAUSANNE, Switzerland, December 9, 2010 -- Kaseya, the leading global provider of automated IT systems management software, today announced that the U.S. Patent Office has issued it a patent covering technology that delivers dynamic instruction sets to remote devices from a centralized server.

Patent 7,827,547 discloses the use of a new dynamically loaded instruction set or library from a central server to update a remote computer management capability that was not previously enabled to be performed.

“The key to any successful IT service delivery depends on automating repetitive tasks on each managed system. Automation not only saves man-hours but more importantly, increases reliability and quality of the service. IT administrators need to customize tasks rapidly through a simple to use scripting mechanism that scales to all the systems under management. Our unique approach meets all these needs,” said Mark Sutherland, president of Kaseya.

Using Kaseya® agent procedures technology, IT professionals can define and build computer instructions that perform a multitude of operations to help them maintain and manage IT infrastructure remotely. Historically an IT professional would have to be physically present at the device site to be able to maintain the systems, uncover performance issues and troubleshoot technical difficulties.

“We understand that sustaining optimal performance on the network is critical for our customers,” said Sutherland. “Through our patented technology, we can ensure not only that work is successfully completed, but also that there is minimal impact on system resources and user activity.”

Kaseya serves a global customer base of more than 10,500 on-premise and cloud customers with millions of agents deployed, including Windows PCs, Linux servers and Mac notebooks.

CometCloud: Using a Federated HPC-Cloud to Understand Fluid Flow in Microchannels

The ever-growing complexity of scientific and engineering problems continues to pose new computational challenges. Thus, we present a novel federation model that enables end-users with the ability to aggregate heterogeneous resource scale problems. The feasibility of this federation model has been proven, in the context of the UberCloud HPC Experiment, by gathering the most comprehensive information to date on the effects of pillars on microfluid channel flow.

CERN, Google, and the Future of Global Science Initiatives

Large-scale, worldwide scientific initiatives rely on some cloud-based system to both coordinate efforts and manage computational efforts at peak times that cannot be contained within the combined in-house HPC resources. Last week at Google I/O, Brookhaven National Lab’s Sergey Panitkin discussed the role of the Google Compute Engine in providing computational support to ATLAS, a detector of high-energy particles at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
