Abstract:

Various example implementations are directed to circuits, apparatuses, and methods for providing virtual computing services. One example involves a data storage device and a set of computing servers communicatively coupled to the data storage device. The set of computer servers provide a respective virtual data center for each of a plurality of accounts, and the respective virtual data center for each account provides virtual services specified in a respective settings file for the account stored in the data storage device. The virtual data center for at least one of the accounts includes a set of virtual desktops and a set virtual servers, including at least one Voice-over-IP (VoIP) server. The VOIP server provides VOIP service for a plurality of users of the account.
