Fluentis ERP

Additional features

Public Cloud

Fluentis is hosted on a third-party provider's infrastructure (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud). This offers benefits like scalability, reduced IT overhead, and accessibility from anywhere with an internet connection. However, it also involves sharing infrastructure with other users and relying on the provider's security measures.

Private Cloud

Fluentis is hosted on a dedicated infrastructure owned or leased by the company, but managed by a third party. This provides more control over security and customization than a public cloud but requires more investment and ongoing management than a public cloud.

Isolated Cloud

This option likely refers to a single-tenant environment within a public cloud. The company has dedicated resources within the provider's infrastructure, offering a balance between the benefits of public and private clouds.

On-Premise (Client-Server)

Fluentis is installed on the company's own servers and accessed through local networks. This gives the company complete control over the system, including customizations, updates, and backups. However, it requires significant upfront investment in hardware and software, as well as ongoing IT maintenance and support.

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)

This architectural style structures the application as a collection of loosely coupled services that communicate with each other. This provides several advantages:

Modularity

Makes it easier to update, replace, or add new functionalities without affecting other parts of the system.

Interoperability

Enables integration with other applications and systems more easily.

Scalability

Allows individual services to be scaled independently based on demand.

Windows or Linux Platform

Fluentis can be deployed on either Windows or Linux servers, providing flexibility in choosing the operating system that best suits the company's IT infrastructure and expertise.

Database Options (Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL)

This provides flexibility in choosing the database management system that best aligns with the company's needs in terms of performance, scalability, cost, and existing database expertise.
