GLI beta tests GLiCloudSM
2 October 2012LAS VEGAS -- (PRESS RELEASE) -– Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), the world’s leading gaming testing laboratory and technical consultancy, has added to its mix of exclusive, award-winning tools that benefit regulators. The new GLiCloudSM is a powerful cloud-based technology that empowers regulators to track the software and hardware that comprises the slot machines on the casino floor and relates the components to their regulatory approval status. Additionally GLiCloud is automated and eliminates human error.
Currently in beta test, GLiCloud will be used by casino operators, online gaming operators, and gaming regulators to manage the gaming applications in their casinos, sites, and jurisdictions. GLiCloud is designed to link with GLI Mobile®, allowing regulators to take the power of the GLI lab with them anywhere with real-time access to critical information.
With its advanced technology that streamlines processes, GLiCloud saves time, saves money, eliminates human error, links the regulator’s database with GLI’s global database, and puts all necessary information in one convenient location.
“Regulators around the world came to us asking if we could develop a way to help them track the enormous number of products on their floor, with a simple solution that taps into our global database so that the information is always up-to-date, accurate and in real-time. GLiCloud delivers on that promise, and because it links to our new GLI Mobile, regulators now have the power of a global database in the palm of their hand,” said GLI President/CEO James Maida.
GLiCloud is an easy-to-use, secure casino floor inventory management and tracking system that helps to simplify the inventory process by utilizing existing industry standard verification tools and communication protocols. GLiCloud links casino floor inventory to real time regulatory compliance status and provides oversight and reporting of activities and tasks.
GLiCloud was created by the engineering team at GLI who also created other award-winning tools, including GLI Link®, GLI Mobile and Point.Click.TransferSM.
GLiCloud uses a number of new technologies and couples the results with GLI’s unique knowledgebase including:
- GAT to automatically determine the components in a game while verifying their authenticity;
- Centralized storage of all the information allowing people anywhere to view and use the data;
- Automatic association of all of the data to GLI specific and maintained information;
- Dynamic database creation to allow users to automatically import the specific information for which they are concerned about tracking.
GLiCloud is maintained with the rest of the GLI network and is protected with the same internal security.
GLiCloud is currently in beta test, and the company expects to officially launch the new tool into wide release within the next six months.
