Digital Platform Operation
Studies show
Almost 60 percent of a company's IT costs are attributable to setting up and operating the IT infrastructure.
Servers, the associated data security, bandwidth, redundancy, permanent adjustments to changing legal requirements and administration are significant cost factors. And yet the reliability and security of IT are often unsatisfactory. This is particularly true of modern digital platforms.
An all-round solution
Together with our hosting partner INSIGMA, we offer you an all-round solution for your Internet applications tailored to your needs
We host webshops, corporate websites, intranets and CMS applications. The data hosted by us is subject to high security regulations.
If a digital platform becomes an essential part of a company, the stable operation of the underlying systems must be ensured. However, this should be carried out at a cost that allows the company to remain competitive.
This can only work if experts work together on an interdisciplinary basis and follow proven best practice strategies.
- Security & availability
Firewalls, daily backups, security and performance monitoring and load balancing provide the greatest possible protection against unauthorized access, data loss and overload.
- Disaster recovery
In the unlikely event of a disaster, a disaster recovery location enables us to keep downtimes to a minimum and ensure the high availability of systems.
- High performance
A 1GB backbone with backup line ensures a fast connection to the network. Concepts such as managed servers and managed IT ensure efficient performance of your infrastructure.
Keeping an eye on costs
If a digital platform becomes an essential part of a company, the stable operation of the underlying systems must be ensured. However, this should be carried out in such a cost-effective way that the company is able to remain competitive. This can only work if experts work together on an interdisciplinary basis and follow proven best practice strategies.
Digital Platform Operation is more than hosting
Before a new complex digital solution is completed and put into operation, important questions must be clarified, e.g.
- How scalable and fail-safe must the operation of the platform be?
- Is it necessary for a platform to be operated fully or partially on-premise in your own or a rented data center?
- Can the entire digital platform or at least individual parts of it be operated in private, public or hybrid cloud structures?
- What technical, legal and strategic issues influence the decision?
We find resilient answers with our customers. And not just at some point, but right from the start and as an integral part of the concept and architectural planning.
However, it is also important to take care of organizational structures at an early stage.
- Where is the knowledge about the technology of the application and its infrastructure built up?
- Who is responsible for the permanent change documentation?
- Who conducts training for new employees?
- How is the support and service desk organized?
- Who has to comply with which service level agreements?
Once these questions have been answered, we can work with specialized third parties to ensure a successful digital platforms operation.
