Managed systems such as the Enforcer Security System require a secure and reliable cloud infrastructure in order to perform their duties.

Describing these clouds can begin with the very basic — what hardware is your cloud working on — and lead to the most advanced — what type of container or virtual machine migration processes are employed to ensure high availability and resiliency of the setup.

For many deployments the hardware question has been transferred to AWS, or Google or another cloud provider. Depending on what you are buying they also abstract away the management and linking of the hardware to the software. However, sometimes for regulatory, security or other reasons there may be a need to build and manage your own infrastructure. SergTech can provide guidance, know-how, and ongoing management for such infrastructure needs, from basic hardware selection, ongoing monitoring and maintenance, software updates and upgrades, to customised solutions to automate most recurring processes.

SergTech works with Virtualisation platform ProxMox, which provides capabilities for clustering, live migration with distributed filesystem (Ceph), support for both virtual machines and LXC containers. ProxMox is actively developed virtualization solution, available both as a community edition or with full support, built on top of Debian Linux.
