Servers: we hates them, don't we precious?
Posted at: 9:03 AM by Hammad
We all have a love-hate relationship with IT and it's no different at Persona. Recently we've been victim of a few growing pains and so we're taking steps to ease the pain. In fact, we're not just going to ease it, we're going to flip it on its head and make it work harder for us!
Firstly, we're rolling out a new web deployment workflow, which will mean a faster, slicker and more robust process from development to staging and then live. The documentation and testing processes are also being vastly improved to give an even higher quality of output and service.
On a technical level, we're moving to Microsoft SQL Server 2008, upgrading our version control system to the latest Microsoft SourceSafe Server and integrating everything more efficiently with our Visual Studio development tools. By using integrated technologies make the most of our internal infrastructure and keep our costs low and efficiency high. That's what helps us stay commercially competitive as well as working to the best standards in the industry.
That's not all though. We're also trialling the growing emergence of 'virtualisation' technology for creating simulated production environments and also playing with Windows Server 2008. We've even been dabbling with some open-source CMS platforms on Java! - all part of our role to stay up to date and at the forefront of technology, so you don't have to.
