Getting the most out of your data depends entirely on the platform it lives on.
You need something that’s not only powerful but also reliable, future-proof, and ready to grow with your goals.
That’s precisely what this diagram represents: the blueprint for your data environment.
What it is: Imagine us building a customised home for your data within the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud. It’s a private network that is completely isolated from other AWS traffic.
What it means for you: Your CKAN portal is hosted in its own private network which is accessible only via the public HTTPS endpoints that CKAN provides.
What it is: If there’s high traffic to your portal, it can automatically scale up to handle the demand without user intervention. Likewise, when that traffic reduces, our hosting will scale down to default resources automatically.
What it means for you: No more worrying about your data portal crashing during peak times or going offline for extended periods. Your users will always have a smooth, fast experience, and you can trust that your platform will stay resilient and functional.
What it is: Link Digital uses PostgreSQL, an industry-leading open source database technology, in addition to multiple layers of reliable storage solutions. Your primary data is stored securely and backed up automatically.
What it means for you: Your valuable data is not just stored, it’s protected. With automatic backups and disaster recovery capabilities, you have peace of mind knowing your information is safe from accidental deletion or hardware failures. Your data integrity is our top priority.
What it is: Every part of our architecture, from web servers to database servers, is designed to grow. As your data volume increases or your user base expands, the system can expand with it without requiring major reconfigurations.
What it means for you: You get a future-proof solution. Whether you have a small amount of data today or a massive amount tomorrow, your platform will perform consistently and efficiently, supporting your long-term growth without bottlenecks or complications.
What it is: This complex diagram shows the power of AWS, but you don’t need to be an AWS expert to harness it. Link Digital can manage all of this for you. Our global team of professionals continuously monitors your environment to ensure uptime, stability and security.
What it means for you: You benefit from enterprise-grade security and reliability without the overhead of managing a complex IT infrastructure. We handle the heavy lifting. This allows you to focus on your core business and leveraging the benefits of your data, rather than worrying about the underlying technology.
