Scalability & Security

Business Tools: Scalability and Security

Keeping your business data safe and secure is a basic necessity for every business. Being able to scale your system to keep up with business growth is just as essential to your technology plans.

Adopting industry standard technologies for security has been a fundamental part of our system development over the last 15 years. Utilizing stable operating systems based on LINUX and UNIX and the Spring Framework to control our overall security and access protocols we can ensure that your data stays safe and you can control user access to your business systems.

Our J2EE compliant Java application is also designed to provide you with internal controls right down to field level for each of your users, so if you want to prevent access to certain key pieces of information, or stop modifications of certain fields by particular users you have the ability to do this. This also means that you can take advantage of role based security to build up roles to match your organizational structure and user access privileges.

rentalresult is based on a global standard known as Enterprise Java, which has been championed by world leaders of computer technologies. This standard incorporates horizontal scalability and distributed processing as part of the core building blocks of design. Not only does the rentalresult application support horizontal scalability, it is deployed by default, irrespective of company size. We don’t believe that company size should be a constraint on technology.

Yann Le Locat, Senior technical architect of Result Group comments: “Distributed processing and horizontal scalability gives IT Professionals the opportunity to invest only in the hardware processing capabilities required at a point in time and not what capabilities “may” be required two or three years into the future. It also allows for companies to split processing across geographic areas, irrespective of where the physical hardware resides allowing issues of redundancy. Distributed processing may sound complex however this approach to software design removes historical restrictions that your legacy application may face, helping to reduce costs, improve hardware redundancy and allow for efficient and timely availability of information.”
