Virtual data lab
With the virtual data lab, you have access to HVL-licensed software for Windows anywhere, anytime.
HVL's virtual data lab (VLAB) is a service for our employees and students, aimed at providing HVL-licensed software. You can connect to it from your cabin, on the bus, or from your home office.
VLAB primarily utilizes OneDrive as its storage service. HVL's recommendation is to only store green or yellow data in OneDrive.
