Data Management & Optimization
Data Warehousing
With exponential Data growth, businesses should be able to analyse, plan & react to changing business conditions with increasing flexibility & agility. Most organizations have their data in silos which makes it immensely difficult to consolidate & leverage for meaningful business insights. Nexus Open Systems delivers Oracle’s industry-leading Oracle Autonomous Datawarehouse to meet this growing need.
Database
Enterprise database management systems enable authorized users to share data quickly & effectively across large organizations. Nexus Open Systems sells licenses & provides support & maintenance services for major relational database systems including Oracle Database, Microsoft SQL Server & My SQL – all of which are optimized for data integrity, ease of access, security, flexibility, & minimal data loss.
Disaster Recovery
Disaster recovery involves replicating entire IT environments including data, systems, networks & applications. Having a DR plan with the proper infrastructure & processes enables businesses to restore functionality & data in case of a system failure. Nexus Open Systems is a value-added reseller for world class system & data replication technology solutions from Veeam, Dbvisit & Oracle.
Back up
With the widespread use of digital platforms, businesses are becoming increasingly data-driven, which means that the prevention of data loss is an important part of business continuity & survival. To reduce the risk of data loss, businesses need to back up files, databases, operating systems, applications & system configurations in a way which minimises hardware costs & safeguards against data breaches. Nexus Open Systems provides backup solutions that help our clients meet both Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) & Recovery Time Objectives (RTO). These solutions include software, hardware & cloud-based offerings from Veeam, Oracle & Microsoft.
High Availability
All organizations use a variety of mission-critical ICT platforms which include databases, applications, websites, e-commerce portals, accounting systems etc. Unplanned & persistent outages of any of these systems can result in loss of revenue, reputation, customer loyalty & productivity. Businesses should therefore endeavour to achieve business continuity by investing in high availability solutions that provide fully automated failover to a secondary system for 99.99% uptime for their mission-critical systems. Nexus Open Systems can deploy high availability solutions from global vendors that do just that.
Today most organizations have the benefit of choosing a cloud adoption strategy that is suitable for their business which can be public, hybrid or private cloud solutions. Nexus Open Systems provides the following types of cloud services from Oracle & Microsoft.
Infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
Platform as a service (PaaS)
Software as a service (SaaS)
By adopting Cloud technology businesses can reduce costs of acquiring & maintaining the underlying IT hardware infrastructure. The “pay-as-you-go” model used to charge for these resources by most vendors makes them a more cost-effective solution than owning them, as customers only pay for what they consume. The ability to scale the size of the solution up or down accommodates for the peaks & troughs in usage, saves the customer money & also gives great flexibility. Other benefits of cloud computing include guaranteed uptime & security standards that comply with global standards for data protection & privacy
