System Infrastructure - How it Works
Plexus is based in a large ‘core’ network infrastructure that we simply extend onto your site. This core network provides the backbone of our system which is where most of the services that you use operate from.
This centralised core network has various advantages for you. For example, since it is the core of our business you can be confident that it is very well maintained. Another major advantage is that since we have one large network instead of individual small networks for each client, the network technology used is that of an Enterprise class as opposed to Small Business that would traditionally be used in individual business networks. The network capacity is therefore much more accommodating and very scalable.
When deployed to your site(s) we setup what we call a satellite server on your site. This server is connected to the core network by a secure, heavily encrypted link. This server provides local file storage to maintain fast access to your documents while the secure link provides access to a plethora of supporting services from the core network. The secure link is also used to take regular backups of your data back to a secure backup server within the core network.
