FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Metaverse and STACKIT Spaces
What is STACKIT Spaces?
STACKIT Spaces is a scalable metaverse-as-a-service platform for companies, brands and XR service providers with high quality requirements for cross-browser immersive worlds and the need for maximum individuality, application and data sovereignty. Using powerful WebGL technology with Unity3D and functions such as script-based NPCs (non-playable characters), interactive digital worlds can be realized on desktop, mobile and VR headset devices. The STACKIT Cloud provides maximum security and sovereignty for customers and partners who want additional security in addition to GDPR compliance and do not want to do without certain certificates such as ISAE3000 or ISAE3402 or test certificates such as C5.
What do companies use STACKIT Spaces for?
Onboarding, recruiting:
HR departments use immersive worlds as an extension for innovative onboarding and recruiting of new employees. The integration of an avatar system enables new employees to represent themselves in a virtual environment and interact with colleagues and corporate cultures. These first impressions are more personalized and memorable than traditional methods. In addition, the platform offers the ability to not only automate HR processes through scripted NPCs, but also improve engagement and onboarding through simulated scenarios. These advanced features ensure a deeper and more efficient integration of new talent into the organization.
Brand & Product Introduction:
Companies experience a positive impact on their brands and products when they are showcased in immersive 3D showrooms that redefine the customer experience. Customers explore brands and products interactively in a virtual environment from different angles, which is not possible in traditional e-commerce. This type of presentation is not only impressive, but also promotes the understanding of product features and offers easy access to a unique brand and product experience.
Further training:
Educators can convey complex topics through virtual field trips and interactive teaching tools that make learning not only more effective, but also more engaging. Whether in a fully simulated environment or through targeted interventions using NPCs that motivate interaction, STACKIT Spaces increases user retention and fosters a deeper connection to learning content. The platform also enables worry-free use in educational institutions thanks to its high level of IT security and GDPR-compliant data processing.
Online workshops:
Online workshops in the Metaverse allow participants to actively participate via avatars and VR headsets in a 3D environment, which significantly increases collaboration and engagement. Scripted NPCs act as virtual assistants to further personalize and enhance the learning experience. This innovative form of knowledge transfer makes every workshop an unforgettable and impactful experience.
What makes STACKIT Spaces different?
We want to bring companies & brands into the metaverse as well, simply and securely as possible. That’s why storytelling is particularly crucial for our XR partners and us. It forms the basis for a captivating immersive user experience. A well-told story arouses emotions, promotes engagement and retains users in the long term. Emotional connection is created through meaningful experiences that remain in the memory. Stories motivate active participation and regular return visits by generating curiosity and excitement. They give the metaverse coherence and structure, which provides users with orientation and facilitates understanding. Interactive experiences where users make decisions and experience their effects increase immersion and a sense of control. In addition, brand values and messages can be conveyed in a memorable way and the emotional connection to the brand can be promoted. Through storytelling, metaverses become a vibrant, dynamic place that inspires, engages and keeps users coming back.

What is the metaverse?
The Metaverse is a collective virtual space that inspires people and offers new opportunities for interaction. In our digital future, this integrative system, using numerous technologies, will have a lasting impact on our everyday lives and connect the digital and physical worlds.
What is the corporate metaverse?
The Metaverse for companies comprises several key elements:
Technological Convergence:
The enterprise metaverse is based on the convergence of several advanced technologies, including 3D browser applications, AR, VR, MR and cloud computing. These technologies create a seamless and immersive virtual environment in which different systems and virtual worlds can interact and collaborate efficiently.
Interoperability:
This will be a fundamental aspect in the future, referring to the ability of different systems and virtual environments to communicate and function cohesively. Without interoperability, a company’s metaverse cannot reach its full potential as it would prevent the transfer of digital assets, data and user experiences across different platforms and applications.
Economic impact:
It will create new business opportunities, products and services, from payment processing to content creation and virtual goods trading. This economic ecosystem will be driven by both established companies and new entrants, changing traditional business models and resource allocation. One industry that will benefit greatly from the opportunities is retail and e-commerce.
Lasting and synchronous experiences:
The corporate metaverse aims to create a durable digital environment in which users’ actions and interactions are continuously reflected and stored. This consistency is crucial for creating a sense of presence and continuity in virtual spaces, which is essential for business applications ranging from virtual meetings to digital showrooms.
What is Metaverse-as-a-Service?
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) is familiar to many people today and is already being used successfully in almost all companies. Similarly, Metaverse-as-a-Service (MaaS) is also a software service, e.g. in the form of a platform such as STACKIT Spaces, where services can be offered and subscribed to. The term “MaaS” is therefore a subcategory of SaaS with a focus on services in the metaverse.
What makes STACKIT Spaces so secure and data sovereign?
STACKIT Spaces is successfully operated on the sovereign cloud computing infrastructure – the STACKIT Cloud. True to the motto: “Eat your own dogfood”, we also operate 3D worlds on the STACKIT Cloud for the companies of the Schwarz Group, to which we belong. STACKIT boasts maximum security and data sovereignty, is GDPR-compliant and has important certificates such as ISAE3000 and ISAE3402 as well as the C5 certificate. The demands and requirements that we place on ourselves are also made by other companies and organizations in Europe. The combination of Metaverse-as-a-Service and the data sovereignty that STACKIT brings gives companies the full spectrum of innovation.
