Project Octopus Beta

Duncan Epping · May 3, 2012 ·

I’ve been using Octopus for months internally already as I already discussed in my enterprise social collaboration post and I think it is an awesome tool! I would recommend everyone who is interested in an enterprise level file sharing solution, not unlike dropbox, to sign up for the beta as Octopus is the way to go!

Project Octopus is the successful marriage of Zimbra and Mozy technologies, with some additional code jointly developed by the two teams. Prior to GA release, it will be folded into Horizon, providing a centralized policy and entitlement engine that will broker user access to applications, virtual desktops and data resources. The result will be a simple, seamless end-user experience when accessing work resources across private and public clouds on whatever device the user chooses.

The beta is open to all and will last through VMworld. Due to limited support resources, priority will be placed on customers with active engagements.
