PLATFORM OPERATION

Operating a software platform requires several skills: our clients’ systems need to be protected against various types of cyber attacks, they needs to be available at 99,99%, and – as a cloud-native – PONTON utilises cloud services wherever useful. We follow a DevOps / SRE approach to automate deployments and system updates.
