Awingu was founded in 2011 by a serial entrepreneur Kristof Despiegeleer. Initially, Awingu provided an integrated cloud stack offering for service providers that ran op top of Dacentec hardware. In 2014, focus was shifted on the ’Cloud desktop’ which soon became “Awingu”. Today, Awingu is available on an international scale, active in over 25 countries (and growing). We are proud to have strategic partnerships with distributors such as Ingram, Also and TechData, as well as with technology giants such as Microsoft, HP and IBM.
In times where the ‘friction’ between IT departments and the end-users has never been bigger, we are dedicated to close the gap with an easy-to-use unified workplace solution. We are dedicated to making the life of customers and partners easy by giving end-users an easy-to-use platform, which is highly mobile and available on any device. At the same time, we provide IT organizations with a platform that is simple to setup and to manage while helping to increase and optimize security and compliance. |

AWINGU`S ARCHITECTURE
Awingu is deployed as a virtual appliance on most hypervisors. This can be a private or public cloud. From there, Awingu will connect into a classic back-end environment. It will link with Active Directory or LDAP for user management. It will connect to application servers running Microsoft RDS for legacy applications or desktops. It will setup a Single-Sign-On with SaaS services. Finally, it will connect to classic file systems via WebDAV and CIFS and with cloud storage environments such as Microsoft’s OneDrive.
For end-users, everything is available in a browser via Awingu’s online workspace. No need to install agents, plug-in’s etc.
In the simplest of forms, Awingu will (1) aggregate applications and files, (2) act as an HTML5 gateway for applications and desktops running on the applications servers and (3) act as an Identity provider. For the sake of simplicity we’re not discussing security, compliance, audit, collaboration and other functionalities here.
In terms of scalability, Awingu is ‘stackable’. Our guidance is to host up to 100 concurrent users on one single Virtual Machine and simply add Virtual Machines for additional users. Finally, Awingu’s software is multi-tenant, can connect with multiple Active Directories, can be branded and is open API based. As such, it is also a Service Provider-ready solution. |
