Recently, Stromasys has gone through penetration testing and has been certified for it. Previously we had a hard time, but now Stromasys Charon on the Cloud has gone through a penetration test and they have documented it. We can show the document to the customer wherever they go for security reasons. That helps now. Before it was not there, but now I can see they have done some security vulnerability assessments for their own products. That is a good move that happened very recently. Recently, I started to use Linux, but before it was primarily Windows. I have no idea on that topic. Maybe not with Tru64 and OpenVMS. Maybe on Charon-SSP, they wanted to look in. I have no idea, but some of my colleagues are talking about it. There were a few bugs, but those were very old histories and have already been fixed. Now recently they have also started to upgrade all the virtualization NICs which are latest available in the market. If they want to really improve, they want to improve on their storage area. They have to attach the storage directly and that has to be converted. They have to work with the modernized storage to get it converted to HP-UX as well as for OpenVMS. Storages can be too technical, but my statement is the following. Stromasys Charon on the Cloud has to work on the storage part. If I am going to have any storage at any level, that has to be communicated with the guest operating system, which is for example OpenVMS, without any issues. While configuring, I will make sure that only HPA card has been in the configuration. New storages should also be supported. They have to write an algorithm such that any IDs which come into the emulator have to be converted to VMS language or Tru64 language. That will rule out the major portion of the storage issue. The rest of the parts are pretty good. I give this product a rating of 9.5 out of 10.
