PowerCloud Systems is a cloud networking company located in Palo Alto, California. The company designs and manufactures cloud-powered Wi-Fi systems for businesses, carriers and consumers and is a corporate spin-off from the Palo Alto Research Center (PARC), a Xerox Company. == History == PowerCloud Systems was incorporated in 2009 and was spun-out as an independent firm in 2010 with investment from Walden Venture Capital and Javelin Ventures. In early 2011, PowerCloud Systems introduced their first product, the CloudCommand online software platform for network equipment providers. This platform enabled network equipment vendors and communications service providers to introduce Wi-Fi networking products that could be managed from the cloud. The platform has subsequently evolved and PowerCloud now offers a portfolio of cloud-managed wireless access points and a Web-based management dashboard that are both white-labeled by communications service providers and are marketed directly to businesses through managed service providers that wish to manage their clients wireless networks. In December 2011, PowerCloud Systems announced it had secured $6 million in Series B funding in a round that was led by Qualcomm Ventures and included participation from its existing investors – Walden Venture Capital, Javelin Venture Partners and PARC. In April 2013, PowerCloud Systems officially entered into the consumer Wi-Fi market with the introduction of Skydog, a combination Wi-Fi router, cloud service and HTML5-based application. In July 2014 PowerCloud Systems announced on the homepage of Skydog that they had been acquired, and retail sales of Skydog router had ceased. No acquirer was named in announcement. In July 2014, Comcast confirmed to Tech Crunch that they had acquired PowerCloud Systems, as speculated.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「PowerCloud Systems」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
