VOIS.COM, (pronounced "Voice") (OTCBB:VOIS) (OTCBB:VOISW), a commerce enablement site which provides an online marketplace for professional, freelance, and on-demand services, announced today that the company is launching a new portal within its existing site framework to provide testing and development, code and data repositories for both contract and freelance software developers working to build next generation cloud application software.
Available January 2010, the VOIS Cloud Application Fostering Environment (CAFÉ) is to provide cloud-based storage for the development of code, sharing of code and API development processes. Additionally, the data storage may be used for the testing of new and innovative applications being developed by freelance software designers, open source community members, and others in order to speed adoption of the rapidly maturing technology area now commonly referred to by both press and industry as “Cloud Computing”.
Gary J. Schultheis, CEO of VOIS.com said of the offering, “Our site is designed to put providers of services together with those who need those services. We see very few areas within the burgeoning technology marketplace with more need for our collaborative open sourcing model than that of Cloud Computing. As we asked ourselves how exactly VOIS could contribute to this rapidly moving space, we decided that we could address a significant need by providing a live test environment for developers and their clients, providing the cloud based storage space they require to build code, host data, and provide real-world, live on the cloud testing to showcase the true strengths and define and correct any weaknesses their newly developed offerings might have.”
During 2010 CAFÉ will be providing 25GB of cloud-based storage for one year free to all current registered members and new members who join VOIS.com. CAFÉ will not require any long term subscriptions or commitment and can be cancelled at any time – this should allow users of the service to test their applications as needed without incurring unreasonable start up or recurring monthly costs.
