Delivering value in the cloud

We apply key concepts, design principles and architectural best practices for designing and running workloads in the cloud. By adhering to our foundational pillars we align architecture with cloud best practices for building world class solutions.

Cost optimization

Take control of your IT cost while building modern, scalable applications that meet your needs.

Cost optimization

At Merapar we help you to take control of cost and continuously optimize your IT spend, while building modern, scalable applications that meet your needs. The Cloud Platforms we work with offer a breadth of services and pricing options. The flexibility of these modern Cloud platforms make it possible to effectively manage your costs and still keep the performance and capacity you require.

Scalable

Our experts are skilled in designing scalable and reliable architectures and solutions.

Scalable

Our experts are skilled in designing scalable and reliable architectures and solutions. Our motto is: “Start with the end in mind”. All components in the chain are designed for scalability. Our experience shows that pilot setups most often make it all the way to a live environment − so why not set it up that way initially! We use Cloud infrastructures for world-class hosting, which is virtually infinitely scalable. Auto Scaling functionality monitors your applications and automatically adjusts capacity to maintain steady, predictable performance at the lowest possible cost.

Reliability

Only reliable architectures and solutions. Our motto is: “Start with the end in mind”.

Reliability

As standard, we use a 99.99% availability architecture, and higher rates are also feasible. We design platforms that automatically recover from failure. We monitor workloads on key performance indicators (KPIs) and trigger automation when a threshold is breached. We test recovery procedures on how workloads fail and validate recovery procedures. Our platforms scale horizontally to increase aggregate availability and reduce the impact of a single failure. When the demands exceed the capacity of a workload we automate the addition of resources to maintain the optimal level to satisfy demand without under-provisioning.

Operational excellence

Deploy new releases or features in a matter of hours (not weeks or months!).

Operational excellence

How software is developed, deployed, operated, and maintained is one part of achieving a higher competency in operations. Equally important is providing a team culture of excellence and growth. From the start we use DevOps methodologies. The contraction of "Dev" and "Ops" refers to replacing siloed Development and Operations to create multidisciplinary teams that work together with shared and efficient practices and tools. By using cloud-native environments we can deploy new releases or features in a matter of hours (not weeks or months!). Our in-house developed continuous integration & continuous delivery pipeline allows us to create and upgrade environments fast.

Secure

We apply secure by design to every design or implementation we do.

Secure

We apply secure by design to every design or implementation we do. Data and platform elements are secured using state-of-the-art encryption (e.g. PKI). By using proven security tools and frameworks, we ensure that the (cloud) platform and all components are safeguarded against outside threats such as DoS attacks, hacks, viruses, etc. Data protection is a top priority as well. Especially for solutions where personal data is processed or stored. By applying the ‘privacy by design’ principle, all data are collected, stored, and processed in a privacy-compliant manner. We install and use strict processes and procedures to access, administer and monitor user accounts and log-ins.

User experience

Profound knowledge and passion for functional and compelling user experiences.
