The right app at the right time.
Whether you’re starting a new project or migrating existing technology, Ioka can help.
At Ioka Technologies Inc., our hand-picked team builds and powers Cloud Native applications that keep networked enterprises stable and growing. When it comes to our projects, we, like our clients, are in it for the long haul — we do everything from analysis and design to infrastructure, deployment, and upkeep for the complete lifecycle of our medium-to-large sized projects.
Our development process, structured by a design–build–test methodology, uses the full power of continuous integration (CI) and continuous deployment (CD) to rapidly build features and adapt them to the evolving needs of your business. Whether integrating with existing services or building new ones from scratch, we use widely-accepted technology specifications like the OpenAPI standard to keep services communicating smoothly even in the face of outages, updates, and migrations. Our deployment processes are fully automated from commit to release, cloud scalable, and zero-trust.
Is it time to move that custom-built VM to a cloud native service and leverage the full benefits of a cloud-native approach? This is a process we break out into multiple phases.
Once the process is complete, your organization will be positioned for rapid, resilient, sustainable growth:
Today’s IoT is not just temperature sensors and smart thermostats. Any fleet of on-premise equipment produces telemetry and benefits from remote configuration and visibility. At Ioka we have experience of the full lifecycle from designing secure IoT hardware to producing end user data insights and managing the technical and infrastructure needs of the fleet.
Traditional applications do not always move to the cloud without significant effort. Application state may assume that it is working with a native disk which might not be compatible with the object storage concepts of the cloud. This raises cost and limits the ability to scale. The good news is that once a workload is running on the cloud under CI, these layers can be cleaved off leaving a stateless application container that can be effortlessly rebooted, reconfigured, scaled up, duplicated in a sandboxed environment, and hooked up to other cloud-aware services.
Often the motivation for cloud IoT is to provide an integration point for silos in the organization. This could be spreadsheets, point-and-click tasks in an isolated application or gaps that haven’t yet been filled with a defined process.
Improvements start by documenting the existing process before replacing segments of it with automation. Ioka will review the existing process and suggest a path forward on integrating existing services into a single UI, building custom services, or working with specialized contractors to produce the efficient, scaleable results you need.
