The overview
Prolinx recognises that there are many applications, data and services that cannot be deployed or migrated onto Public Cloud solutions due to security concerns, risks, constraints and lack of compliance or assurance. However, many Prolinx customers have a desire to move away from traditional on-premises hosted solutions, and leverage the benefits that hosting applications within public cloud services has to offer, for example; infrastructure and staff cost savings, increased access options and efficiencies, scalability of resources on-demand, removing the need for technical hardware refresh, increasing group collaboration and project delivery, using the latest technology and having robust redundancy, backup and Disaster Recovery (DR) solutions.
Prolinx has partnered with leading Software Development houses, resulting in the secure design, required IT Health Checks (ITHCS) and assurance to enable hosting and access to software that is capable of processing sensitive and protectively marked data. As a result, Prolinx can host a number of industry standard tools and enterprise applications that have only traditionally been available within the Public Cloud space, and more importantly, make those applications available at higher security tiers. Partnering with Prolinx and leveraging our experience in the secure managed services sector enables organisations to design and deploy software to markets that have previously been unavailable.
Customers wishing to migrate and utilise specific software packages in the cloud are able to leverage the Prolinx SaaS service, and integrate software with secure networks whilst using and exploiting their real data sets.
