Northcloud is a business and technology consultancy providing
technology strategies and solutions to satisfy a wide range of needs.
Northcloud excels at gathering and understanding business requirements
and mapping them to technology based solutions.
Situation
Northcloud was in the middle of a rapid growth phase. It was
faced with making a decision on slowing the growth of its Linux and
open source services, or hiring full/part-time employees to
manage projects for new clients. Neither option was ideal at the
time.
A third alternative was necessary. It was important to Northcloud to maintain a high level of service for
its Linux client base. Any solution to the problem would have to
be dependable, affordable, high quality, and most of all, allow it to continue its growth strategy.
Solution
Northcloud contacted Systems Aligned and partnered with the firm for Linux and open source services.
Systems Aligned was instrumental in deploying Linux based mail
servers, spam filtering, FTP and DNS servers for Northcloud. In addition, an open source tool was improved upon and
released [available here] to the community by Systems Aligned during a mail server migration.
Results
- Company growth can continue without impacting existing and new Linux client base
- Substantial cost savings by partnering with Systems Aligned
- Continue to offer high quality, dependable Linux solutions and services
- Discreet and secure remote open source implementations and technical support
