CLOUD SOLUTION ARCHITECTURE

CURRENT AND FUTURE CHALLENGES
Fast evolving technologies (choosing the right one)
Having a platform which is scalable to cope with expected growth
Increased stress on security
Need for “Development & Hosting interaction” when designing
new products
Transics is a software company, not a hosting company
Customer expectation “olympic minimum” has increased in terms
of quality and time to market, 24/7 availability of support …

MongoLab is a fully managed cloud database service featuring automated
provisioning and scaling of MongoDB databases, backups, 24/7 monitoring and
alerting, MongoDB GUI tools, and expert support. By hosting MongoDB on
MongoLab’s Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS) platform, developers and IT
professionals are free to focus their attention on product development instead
of operations
