Spoon (formerly Xenocode〔) is a set of software products and services developed by the Code Systems Corporation for application virtualization, portable application creation, and digital distribution. Code Systems Corporation is an American corporation headquartered in Seattle, Washington, and is best known for its Spoon products that include Browser Sandbox, Spoon Studio, Spoon Server, and Spoonium. Kenji Obata founded Code Systems Corporation in 2006 and introduced Spoon’s precursor, Xenocode. Xenocode was an early application virtualization engine for the Windows platform. Obata serves as the CEO of the corporation, which has become commonly known as Spoon since a rebranding in 2010. Spoon’s tools package conventional software applications for Microsoft Windows in a portable application format that can be delivered via a single executable or streamed over the web. Files and settings automatically synchronize across devices via Spoon’s patented virtualization technology which allows access to local files and printers from web-based applications. ==About the company== CEO Obata graduated from Yale University in 1999 with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Mathematics (''summa cum laude''). He spent several years as a development lead at Microsoft Corporation before attending the University of California, Berkeley to obtain his Ph.D. in Computer Science. After receiving his Ph.D., Obata returned to Seattle in 2006 to grow the company. From 2006 to 2009, the Code Systems Corporation developed Xenocode, one of the first application virtualization engines for the Windows platform. The product focused on application deployment via preconfigured executables. Spoon was launched in 2010 as a reintroduction of Xenocode’s virtualization engines. Spoon’s technology combines application and storage virtualization with web-based network and synchronization protocols, machine learning algorithms, and semistructured large data storage systems. Spoon.net virtual applications run in isolated sandboxes, allowing multiple application versions to run simultaneously without conflict. Spoon.net uses technologies such as Scala, Akka, Lift, and AWS to build its website and server systems. Spoon technology is used by industry-leading educational, entertainment, financial, government, health care, and information technology organizations. Spoon’s customer base consists of tens of thousands of organizations and millions of end users. Products include solutions for enterprise software distribution; web development and testing tools such as Browser Sandbox, Browser Studio, and Spoonium; and free accounts that allow users to stream hundreds of brand-name applications like Skype, Chrome, and Firefox without installing them. All accounts also come with cloud storage hosted on Spoon.net. Spoon is headquartered in Seattle, is profitable and employee-owned, and adds thousands of new users each week. 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「Spoon (software)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
