Sphere 3D presented four our NASDAQ bell ringing in New York. Eric Kelly, Peter Tassioploulos, John Morelli, Larry Orecklin presented "Next Cloud", a Hybrid Cloud combination of technologies from Sphere 3D which when combined with Microsoft Azure become very powerful and disruptive delivering 10x the performance and efficiencies of either Public or Private cloud technologies alone. Whether containerized Windows applications, or the first Hybrid NAS (Network Attached Storage) solution, or distributed workload optimized hyper-converged appliances for virtual desktops, the "Next Cloud" will play a big role in Microsoft Azure going forward.

“ We tried traditional virtualization
techniques but the specific apps we
needed couldn’t virtualize or
wouldn’t scale. With our Glassware

Traditional Approaches Can’t Meet the Needs of
Billions of Users and Millions of Apps
• Difficulty of scale – Traditional architectures are causing
complexity and cost overruns
• Mobility of workloads and data are driving fork-lift upgrades and
rip-n-replace of existing infrastructure
• Complexity of infrastructure management – lingering silos and
higher costs
• Transitioning legacy applications not designed for the cloud is
difficult and remote app software limits functionality

Enterprises Rapidly Adopting a Hybrid Cloud Approach
Survey: 930 IT professionals in Jan 2015
• Hybrid cloud will reach about $84.67B
in 20191 growing at 29.8% CAGR1
• 55 percent of enterprises are
planning for hybrid clouds2
• In 2015, mobile devices and apps, the
cloud, big data will account for one
third of all IT spending and virtually
100% of all spending growth3

Glassware Advantages:
• Glassware Containers deliver anywhere from 2 to 10 times the
density of other virtualization techniques
• The only containerization solution optimised to run and remotely
deliver end user applications
• Support Windows and non-Windows application on the Glassware
Microvisor
Glassware 2.0®
Containerization is a virtualization technique that enables many separate operating system instances to share a
common kernel. This approach eliminates the performance overhead associated with a hypervisor where each guest
runs a full operating system instance.

Virtualization
• Delivers fully functioning software applications- including
most apps written for a Microsoft OS over the last 30+ years;
• Virtualization approach that can economically deliver end
user software applications as a service;
• Can be used on local servers or in the cloud and can
cluster to create a very scalable hybrid cloud;
• Utilizes a proprietary technology known as a “Microvisor” that
will allow it to run non-windows software and programs
