Abstract: Techniques for providing using software applications within persistent hybrid virtual collaborative workspaces are provided. In an example, a method establishes a virtual collaborative workspace characterized by or more virtual collaborative workspace resources and associated with one or more users to interact with other users or collaborative workspace resources within the virtual collaborative workspace. The method further receives, from a client device associated with a first user associated with the virtual space, an identification of an application to use in the virtual collaborative workspace. The method, based on the receiving, adds the application to the virtual collaborative workspace and configures the application to access one or more resources associated with the virtual collaborative workspace. The method further provides access to the application within the virtual collaborative workspace to at least a subset of the users associated with the virtual collaborative workspace.

Abstract: One example method includes receiving a request to join a virtual space, the request received from a user device associated with a first user; responsive to determining that the first user is a member of the virtual space, providing access to the virtual space; changing a status of the first user based on the first user accessing the virtual space; providing state information associated with a then-current state of the virtual space; and providing an indication of a conference attached to the virtual space to the first user, the conference being between two or more members of the virtual space.

Abstract: One example method includes generating, by a conference provider, a virtual space; adding a plurality of members to the virtual space; adding one or more resources to the virtual space in response to one or more inputs from one or more of the members; initiating, by the conference provider, a conference between two or more of the members; attaching the conference to the virtual space; and providing an indication of the conference in the virtual space.

Abstract: One example method includes receiving, from a client device by a conference provider, a request to join a virtual space hosted by the conference provider, the virtual space having a plurality of members, the client device associated with a first member of the plurality of members; joining the client device to the virtual space; establishing a presence associated with the first member based on an interaction of the first member with the virtual space, the presence indicating whether the first member is present in the virtual space and a context; and providing an indication of the presence to the other members of the plurality of members
