What is InvisiTasking?

Simply put, it is a more intelligent, software-based means of managing the resources.

Process/Thread Scheduling is an integral part of every popular general purpose operating system. The core part of these operating systems has to be able to fool each process/user that it has the computer all to itself. Splitting and either adequately delaying or expediting requests for CPU or other limited resources is vital to support modern demands. However, the granularity of doling out hardware resources to compete processes only goes so far. This limitation affects your computers performance.

Vital productivity applications are slowed when maintenance or augmentative processes squeeze time away from those applications. The result is programs intended to support business productivity, end up taking productivity away.

The InvisiTasking technology will allow users to get the most out of their hardware without interfering with their software. Leverage the unharnessed horsepower on one or multiple computers. Applications will finish faster- all the while, functioning invisibly.

Here are a few cases where implementing InvisiTasking technology results in seamless and efficient results:

1. You’re developing a media-processing application. Perhaps your solution grids computers together, so you can draw from a wider pool of resources. The InvisiTasking technology allows this grid to process by tapping into wasted CPU cycles on individual nodes; offering a network’s worth of computing power to your application. The entire time the user (your customer) will be able to maintain regular production, as your application operates invisibly in the background. The end result: your product completes its task faster and your customer enjoys much lower costs by leveraging their existing equipment.

2. You are developing an e-discovery or data-indexing solution for compliance or business intelligence initiatives. The executives (or your customer) require a real-time solution that allows management to collect the latest information and make rapid yet informed decisions. You need an operational technology that will support this project without interfering with day-to-day production. When weekend scheduled processes don’t provide data fast enough, often enough, or simply can’t keep up; InvisiTasking will save the day.

3. You manufacture a security application that needs to work in real time, but cannot interfere with the day-to-day use of the servers or PCs. The user cannot forgo performance or security. They must have a solution. InvisiTasking technology can be the deal-clincher that elevates sales and customer satisfaction. Offer secure computing economically with InvisiTasking.

When scheduling is not enough, when running manually is out of the question, and efficiency is of utmost importance, InvisiTasking technology is the key to optimized customer/user-centric solutions.
