Cloud Back-End Hosting
The PacificBase Dynamics Cloud Hosting Service has been designed and developed for those end users who do not require local, in-house hosting of back-end databases but still need enhanced security, reliability and speed. In particular, this service is aimed at satisfying the demand of those end users who:
- are constantly on the road and need mobility and portability;
- outsource IT or do not have the necessary in-house resources to host or manage the SQL server back-end databases or just want to be maintenance-free;
- need a secure alternative system for their disaster-prevention management plans to ensure business continuity; and
- need flexibility and scalability without the sunk costs.
The PacificBase Dynamics Cloud Hosting Service may be licensed without Front-End software. If Front-End software is contracted, the service may include one, two or all of our end-user applications, which are developed in .NET and integrated with MS Excel.
In addition, if you need industrial-strength analytical power, you should also subscribe to our Analytical Engine Application, PDCalc. This application may be used as middleware between PBD’s back-end and PBD’s end-user applications to create, maintain and automate the calculation and transmission of proprietary metrics. It may also be used to upload and maintain in-house or third-party data series.
