ForeThought - RCV Innovations

RCV innovations has transformed from a training and consulting outfit to product based services organization.  The last five years had a see-saw effect on our existence as a viable business. We cannot forget the contributions of our mentors, early patrons and partners- Niranjan, Brad, Rakesh,Dorothy, Avik, Supriya, Sridhar, Bhaskar, Jaipal, Kishan, Joseph, Goutam, Mishra and many others. I am deeply moved by the faith some of our new customers have placed on us by adopting VAMANiT appliances for their business needs. Our team is grateful for the opportunity to serve you to the best of our ability. I am humbled by the commitment and excitement the team has shown in executing our new Nested Data center strategy. The pace at which we have trained ourselves in cutting-edge VMware vSAN and NSX technologies is noteworthy.  We are applying our VMware knowledge to Strategic and Mission critical applications by integrating energy efficient purpose built VAMANiT Nested Data ...

This was a year of transformation. On the Services front it exciting but a little of the map. We assisted a startup with Docker orchestration platform development. We developed Responsive web services based wine e-commerce sites with a view to getting to assist a SaaS platform. We played positive role assisting our key partner with setting up India presence. We have realized that our structure is not a fit for such projects.we are systematically exiting out of non-core services only activities. We had shrink in size due to changed business situation. We are currently assisting only one SaaS platform - 366 and we have rights to resell the platform India. 366 platform will also be the customer communication front-end for VAMANiT. This strategy is helping put our best resources on 366 to make it better.  We have moved the needle on India business. We have had a chance to enter to Government/Public Sector. We are serving customers such as ECIL(Govt. Of India) with...

  Objective: Evaluate and Assess the Risks and benefits of emerging storage technologies to fit the needs of Virtual Environments.   Scenario:   Tradition Enterprise SAN Storage arrays have been a platform of choice for deploying Virtualization in the last decade.   These platforms are reaching their End-of-Life and are up for a refresh.   There is a latent need to transform storage environments into Software-Defined Storage Architecture to meet the new capacity, availability and performance needs. Approach:   There Several approaches to Software-Defined Storage Architecture:   Factory Built Convergence Platforms with VMware Converged Storage Stack (e.g. HP EVO:RAIL) Flash Virtualization Platforms(e.g. PernixData) - Extend the Life of traditional storage Server side flash to provide increased performance and capacity. Server Hardware with Bundle Storage Virtual Appliances (HP StorVirtual) Commodity Hardware with Converged Software (e.g.  Quanta) Purpose-Built Storage Appliances (e.g. N...

In India, We seem to be more focussed on improving Physical Infrastructure. It is important, however... There is an urgent need to improve our National Information Infrastructure. It is not just about fibre optic networks to villages. We need to improve our data collection and management infrastructure for better governance and effective national-level decision making. Today, Data collection from both human and machine sources is weak or does not exist. Our Prime Minister's office knows the power of Social Media and Digital Strategies. Lets apply Digital Strategy by creating  crowd sourcing platforms for enriching the data about our localities and learn about economic activities at a granular level. Lets encourage university research in inventing mass-scale sensor technologies for machine based data collection. use government assets and encourage private participation in enriching the machine/sensor based data collection and understanding the state of our environment...

These are tumultuous times, impending wars, fewer jobs, failing banks and slower economic growth. We need good leadership for security, a proper natural resource utilization to save our planet and build hope for a better tomorrow. I am finding leadership and hope in oddest of places...in our tech sector. We are buzzing with activity in Social networking, Mobile, Analytics and Cloud Technologies. In some ways all these trends are having a synergistic effect to promote rapid development and consequent  adoption of Internet of Things(IoT). We are seeing massive acquisitions(NEST by Google/Beats by Apple) of IoT potentials, Crowd funding and rapid improvement in energy technologies(solar/battery).   These are fueling the progress of internet of things as the next big thing. Impact of Internet of Things(IoT) will be direct and transformative for both communities and corporations. Some examples of Mundane Tasks that can be made simple with application of IoT: ...
