Building Information Modeling has been around for 30 years. BIM works perfectly at smaller scales where no extensive “worksharing” is needed. However, BIM may be a bottleneck for larger teams requiring simultaneous access to projects from different locations. In other words, BIM is great but does not scale well — at least it hasn’t up until now!!! The BIMcloud combines GRAPHISOFT's patented “Delta” BIM Server technology with the advantages of the CLOUD, providing a scalable solution for teams and projects of any size with the following specific benefits:
-The BIMcloud supports the HTTP, HTTPS and VPN protocols. With HTTPs, it is possible to achieve the same level of security as with VPN, while providing added convenience for remote access users. -The BIMcloud connects project members in real-time from any distance. Network latency is simply not an issue for the BIMcloud
-The BIMcloud functions on standard hardware, no expensive server-grade hardware or software is required to run the BIMcloud -The BIMcloud operates on any level of data security, and is easily deployed in public and private cloud environments -The BIMcloud integrates into the corporate environment allowing IT personnel to centrally manage users and data access -BIMcloud scalability supports any type of workload. Upgrading BIMcloud Servers on the fly or adding new server resources as needed, it will not interrupt the office’s productive work in any way.
