HP has launched two new unified communication (UC) applications, HP AppSystem for Microsoft Lync and HP and Polycom Rich Media Communications (RMC) that would help clients achieve more productivity and improve responsiveness to customers through UC.
The AppSystem for Microsoft Lync is an integrated UC platform built on HP Converged Infrastructure, which is said to be designed to reduce implementation time and costs by offering extensive testing that ensures multivendor interoperability.
The integrated UC platform is preconfigured for deployment of Microsoft Lync, allowing clients to provide better collaboration between employees, partners and customers.
Combined with HP services, the platform enables clients to achieve enhanced collaboration with the Polycom RealPresence video applications and Polycom RealPresence Collaboration Server and to reduce costs with Public Switched Telephone Network connectivity options through SIP Trunks via ACME Packet Session Border Controllers.
HP and Polycom RMC is an open standards based application that enables integration into an organisation’s existing multivendor environment and also incorporates a built-in multilayer security to protect users’ video streams and applications.
The application provides a software infrastructure for universal video collaboration by combining HP Networking products based on the HP FlexNetwork architecture with Polycom RealPresence video solutions built on the Polycom RealPresence Platform.
