With data-driven predictive maintenance, machine failures and unnecessary maintenance measures are avoided. The purpose of maintenance is to ensure the technical availability of production equipment and machines and to reduce unplanned, technically related shutdowns. In preventive maintenance, the time intervals for maintenance measures are set a bit shorter than the average operating time between two malfunctions. This results in maintenance measures that often are not yet necessary at the time. While maintenance is being performed, equipment and machines cannot be used. Because maintenance measures as well as production losses are associated with costs, it makes greater economic sense to carry out as many maintenance measures as necessary, but at the same time as few as possible. The purpose of predictive maintenance is to reduce the downtime of equipment and machines for technical reasons. Maintenance measures are to be carried out exactly when they are unavoidable – when a shutdown is imminent. The aim is to increase the time between two specific maintenance measures and reduce technically related downtime.
The use of cloud services brings with it a whole range of benefits. Let's take a closer look at what these look like and how your business can benefit from a well-coordinated cloud strategy.
Speed
Low action and response times are probably the most basic advantages of cloud computing. It manifests itself in many different areas, from shorter release cycles to accelerated implementation of customer needs to faster onboarding of new employees.
Flexibility
In addition to increased speed, increased flexibility is also evident on a number of levels. This includes the automatic scaling of applications as well as the rollout of individual services during operation for low-risk tests under production conditions. But flexibility also means keeping important options open with as little vendor lock-in as possible.
Transparency
Transparency is a key reason for many customers, who are plagued by the governance of an on-premise "sprawl", to look towards the cloud. Benefits are particularly evident in inventory, improved cost control through easy identification of cost drivers, and improved monitoring through integrated monitoring and diagnostic capabilities.
Attractiveness as an employer and employee satisfaction
What do you think a top graduate of a university will choose if the options are "administration of a J2EE environment" and "development of infrastructure as code for the successful operation of containerized mircoservices"? Developing for the cloud increases employer attractiveness through the use of contemporary technologies.
Resilience
Application "resilience" can be significantly improved over traditional data center operations. Dynamic switching of resources during high application loads, a high level of resistance to attacks by the cloud platform itself, and chaos and resilience engineering increase resilience even in exceptional situations.
Good software impresses with its performance and security. Unfortunately, the latter is often treated rather neglectfully. Many companies choose the approach, "We test security into it" or "We do a penetration test“ before productive use". But that is not enough to make applications holistically secure.
Through targeted workshops and training, we develop your employees into experts in the field of security. We train your developers to become security champions. This makes security the heart of the agile development team – and DevOps a secure DevOps culture (DevSecOps).
Our Agile Security Offer With our holistic security package, we make sure that you can develop and operate your applications agilely and securely. In the cloud or on-site.
Why custom software development? Flexibility, customer satisfaction and fast response times are just some of the reasons why more and more companies are turning to agile development methods.
For you, a standard off-the-shelf solution is not enough for your business, and you want to build an individual software solution? Your applications are getting on in years, and you want to benefit from the advantages of a migration to the cloud? Standard software is not available or is not customizable enough for your problem? These are examples where agile software engineering should be used, and you would be better off investing in a custom software solution instead of standard software.
With custom software, you have one advantage above all: your business ideas become feasible! You are not one of many customers whose wishes are incorporated into the software, but only your ideas and requirements are explicitly implemented. Through short, iterative steps, you are always aware of the current status of the software tailored to your needs and can incorporate new ideas at any time.
High software quality based on a well-thought-out architecture pays off for you in the medium to long term. Your individual product remains permanently adaptable through the use of modern technology standards as well as innovative and, at the same time, proven procedures. The use of cloud technologies and platforms makes you independent of an inflexible infrastructure.
Be one step ahead of your competitors and digitalize your business processes with a flexible, elastically scalable and growing individual software solution!
