How to start planning your infrastructure?

 You can make a good planning of the infrastructure for your company, following, basically, four steps that are subdivided in several stages.


Ideally, the project should consider your company's strategic executive planning objectives and guidelines . If this document does not exist, however, the minimum to do is to align IT planning with the general objectives of the business.


Mapping of existing structure and demand

The first step is to map the entire existing infrastructure , evaluating each piece of equipment in relation to its life cycle and utility. This analysis allows us to inventory everything that can be used, what should be replaced and what are the demands for expanding the technology park.

The systems engineer will often work together with a project manager and the engineering crew and becomes the primary point of communication to interlink between the two to simplify the accomplishment of a successful system. 

From the assessment of the company's needs, we project the need for new investments , whether in devices, software or expansion of the network and the internet band, for example.


At this point in the planning, it is important to take into account the intention to grow the company and, after a certain period, expand the infrastructure . This growth projection will make it possible to choose the most appropriate IT solutions to adapt to new demands in the future.

Cloud-based DDoS Protection

Don’t let the DDoS attack interrupt your business operation for reputational and financial loss. Use cloud-based denial of service protection to prevent getting hacked. Denial-of-service attack definition Anyone with bad intentions can hire a hacking service for a targeted attack. Malware tools are accessible, easy to use, and effective. Not just large companies, but cybercriminals are looking for any size vulnerable victims, including personal blogs, e-commerce shops, small to medium businesses. One type of attack is particularly dangerous and increasingly common. It is called distributed denial of service attack, or DDoS for short. In a DDoS attack, a set of compromised, distributed systems –could be servers, home computers, Internet-of-Things devices, anything connected to the internet– is used to overwhelm a targeted system with a flood of requests, to the point in which the attacked system gets saturated enough to refuse to work. Since the flood comes from many scattered...

What are the benefits of purchasing a SaaS model?

 Knowing what SaaS is and deploying this technology in your business will establish quite a differentiator . After all, companies that host their cloud services can increase the degree of efficiency applied to the processes, improving the results obtained.  So, do you want to know the other benefits that this service model provides? Just keep following this post! 1. More accurate software licensing costs Software licensing costs are often among the main factors that contribute to the weight of the IT sector in a company's budget. Therefore, reducing this expense (or making it more precise) is an objective that is part of the daily life of any IT manager. In this sense, SaaS is considered one of the best alternatives on the market. With SaaS, the company pays only for the number of active licenses. This dramatically eliminates spending on software licenses that are not in use. With this, the company can prepare itself in advance in case of projects or major structural changes. ...

What are the English proficiency levels?

 The classification used by language courses - basic, intermediate and advanced - is not exactly related to the levels of English proficiency that are based on the categorization of the European Common Framework or Framework. This guide considers the international standard ranking, which divides the degree of knowledge of the language into: See more:  Amazon Saheli Quiz Answers A1 (beginner) A2 (basic) B1 (intermediate) B2 (post-intermediate) C1 (advanced) C2 (proficient) Before you make any assessment, no matter how much you have prepared for it, pre-tests are recommended to find out where you would be classified if you took the test at that time. If your rating is below B2, in little or nothing a proficiency certificate will help you. Although many foreign universities consider the B1 level sufficient, the classes are already so complex even for those who have a perfect level of understanding of English, imagine for those who do not speak the language. Professionally speakin...
