“We make sure your website is fast and always online, and your web application is safe, reliable, and doesn’t break the business.” We deal with the following in ‘IT Consulting & Strategy’:
Maximum availability, minimum complexity for your IT needs.
- CDN-first (Cloudflare, Akamai, Fastly)
- Static or headless wherever possible such as wordpress & magento, we use use a CMS only for content management (backend) and build the frontend separately (React, Vue, etc.) via APIs.
- Minimal backend exposure
- Cheap, fast, globally available
- Tiered architecture (web, app, data)
- Auth, sessions, APIs
- Stateful or distributed state
- Load balancing + autoscaling
Putting it simply:
- Make it load quickly everywhere incusive of mobile and desktop devices
- Protect it from being taken offline
- Keep it updated so it doesn’t get hacked (all major third party softwares such as wordpress, magento, prestashop, joomla and so on…)
- Our consultants can advise you on how to keep costs low
- Lock down access, even if it is headless wordpress “locking down access” is actually one of the most important steps—otherwise your backend still stays exposed.
- Protect customer and business data
- Make sure it keeps working as usage grows
- Put monitoring in place so problems are caught early
