At Adept, we understand that some organisations want to move away from traditional on-premise application deployments. For some customers it is more cost-efficient to operate business applications without having to buy, manage and support the underlying infrastructure.

To support this, Axis can be optionally be deployed as an “as a service” model. With this deployment, customers still benefit from a system that is tailored to their unique requirements. They still own their version of the Axis software and of course they still own their data. With Axis as a Service, we install the customer’s configured Axis software in the cloud on the Microsoft Azure platform.

Our Axis as a Service offering includes the following :

• Database hosting,
• Application Hosting,
• Report Server Hosting,
• SQL Server database administration,
• Windows Server administration,
• A Backup service,
• Upgrades and Patches,
• Interface Support,
• User Administration,
• Guaranteed Service Levels,
• Monthly service reports,
• A Test System.

We recognise that security is a primary concern when business critical data is stored in the cloud. The requirement for security is a given in the cloud industry and Azure’s proactive approach to security, compliance and privacy is industry leading. Axis as a Service can offer two factor authentication, IP address restriction and security logging.
