Cloud ready?
NTS is here for the selection of the appropriate Cloud strategy, implementation and transition.
Cloud Infrastructure
Every company uses Cloud services – either on a larger scale or less consciously. We operate Multi-Cloud and Hybrid-Cloud environments through partnerships with Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure. Software defined data center solutions by VMware and software defined networking infrastructure by Cisco cater for performance and security during the integration and the provisioning of IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) and PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) resources and offer opportunities for the automation of processes at the same time. NetApp Spot technology assesses and forecasts resource requirements to automatically scale infrastructures and thus provides insights, gives recommendations and enables automation.
Cloud? Cloud? Certainly! Our NTS solutions are made by heroes.
“Innovation is embedded in our mindset, and it must go beyond a mere experimenting stage, as we represent security and continuity after all.”
Helmut Hödl Product & Technology Director, NTSPlatforms
Scattered infrastructures, massive demands for the scalability of applications and requirements for agile software development require new platforms. Particularly in the Cloud, containers represent the new “delivery format” of applications or microservices, and Kubernetes is already established as an orchestration platform. In close coordination with the customers’ DevOps and platform engineering teams, NTS builds tailor-made solutions from Kubernetes platforms by SUSE Rancher and VMware Tanzu and integrates tools such as Terraform and Vault by HashiCorp, repositories by GitLab and many more.
On top of that, we assist you with automation and the optimization of complex app infrastructures to optimally support Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) processes. Should you wish to focus only on the deployment of new software releases and apps, NTS supports the operation of the infrastructure that is required.
Full Stack Observability
Performance and availability are decisive for the satisfaction of the users and for the success of applications. AppDynamics allows monitoring of each component of an application or a microservice in every detail, even to the code level if need be. ThousandEyes offers an end-to-end view from the client all the way to the application – no matter if on-premises and/or Cloud hosted. These visibility tools are both deployed by NTS in combination and therefore enable a unique view of all the parameters of the user experience – all this from any desired angle. By using APIs, NTS experts integrate AppDynamics and ThousandEyes data in Splunk and enable a selective and rapid elimination of constraints and mistakes. Satisfied users, as well as fast and successful transactions, are a genuine competitive edge.
Infrastructure as Code
The bigger and scattered Cloud and on-premises infrastructures become, and the more often they change, the more important automatization becomes. By using Infrastructure-as-Code, NTS assists their customers in automating routine tasks in the IT infrastructure that previously took hours or days. As a result, the scale is reduced to minutes. Thereby, NTS experts rely on the IaC tool terraform by HashiCorp and utilize the APIs of hardware and software products from our manufacturing partners Cisco ACI, NetApp Cloud OnTAP or VMware NSX. We not only advise our customers in matters of automation of Cloud and data center infrastructures, but we also include network, security and collaboration environments for our customers at IaC projects straight away.
