The cloud is an innovation-driving force for companies in all sectors and of all sizes. Behind the trend is the provision of storage space and computing power: processes, services or entire applications run within containers that are operated on a computer network. Computing power and storage requirements can be selected variably.
What are the advantages of cloud computing?
By sharing physical resources, better utilisation and thus lower operating costs can be achieved. Hosting with an external provider eliminates any maintenance costs. The time required for deployments is also significantly reduced due to the ready-to-use system environment. Where previously a complete infrastructure had to be set up, an application in the cloud is ready for use after a short time.
In order to design a suitable software architecture for a cloud-based application, the operating model must be adapted to the requirements of the application. Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) enables simple deployment of an application within one or more containers. With Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), the company can use software from the cloud without having to install and manage it itself.
Where has soxes used cloud computing?
The requirements of companies for their software are varied and individual. Therefore, the type of deployment must be considered individually for each customer. The soxes team has advised customers in numerous projects on the selection of the right operating model and designed and implemented the applications accordingly. One of many examples of a cloud-based application developed by soxes is the digitalised measurement and information system for windows, doors and gates MyPortaNet. The individual services of the complex solution run in containers via the cloud. To ensure higher availability and better scalability, the services are also operated in clusters.
