Technology
At Spider Networks we understand technology - but more importantly we understand how best to use technology to deliver real business drivers for your organisation. We have built, from the ground up, a secure, scalable and robust infrastructure platform that is second to none. As a customer your benefit is simple - an Interactive Service Platform that looks great, performs greater and delivers value to your company.
We own the Intellectual Property rights for all of our solutions - we have not just bolted someone's tools together. This enables us to provide you with a totally integrated, customised solution and experience. The architecture behind our award winning solutions is a blend of industrial strength operating systems, such as Sun Solaris and innovative Open Source programming languages, representing a total of over 50 man years worth of development to build our scalable, secure and robust product suite.
At the core of Spider's hosting framework lies a completely interoperable set of industry standards. We do not believe in wedding ourselves to a single technology platform or solution; our expertise lies in enabling a customer's existing investment and infrastructure into the solution - not just sitting next to it. By providing an in-house built middleware architecture, utilising such standards as XML, Web Services and SOAP, we can pass on significant cost-savings in terms of requiring third party licences.
Our application development work is done in whichever language is best suited for the task. We currently run applications under Perl/Apache, C#/.Net/IIS and many others. We take advantage of leading-edge Open Source Software such as Exim and anti-spam technology, as well as integrating commercial products such as Kaspersky Anti-virus, SQLServer and Informix. We provide shrink wrapped solutions such as Web Hosting and DNS management as well as bespoke community tools, such as customisable Email controls. We are not wedded to one path, just one map.
We can talk to you and your applications in XML, HTML, RSS, SOAP and Web Services. We feel that one of our strongest abilities is to be able to deliver simple solutions to complex problems, without blinding you with technology. To us, technology is there to deliver the end product, not just to drive more and more development effort and processes. Our solution is evolving in direct response to our customer needs, not as a result of a desire to drive leading edge solutions at customers who do not necessarily need, nor want, them.
Come and talk to us about your requirements and we will be happy to show you how we can translate them into real products, with real benefits to you. Email linda@spider-networks.net for more information.
