The cloud-based infrastructure means that the capacity of the Core dna service can be ramped up and down as required, with ease. The main benefit of this lies in the costs. You are not required to pay a standard hosting charge, which is especially important if your website is busy seasonally.
There are many other technical benefits such as:
Core dna is built for flexibility, which allows the engine to be modified and scaled to suit the size and requirements of any site. This makes it ideal for rolling out a range of microsites for your business.
Cloud based infrastructure refers to how it is it delivered. In this case, Core dna is delivered as a service (SaaS) as opposed to an actual product. What cloud infrastructure allows is shared resources, software, and information to be provided as a utility over the internet.
Yes, Core dna creates a staged approach to building an effective website. Our technology allows you to create a website that serves your current needs while providing the flexibility to quickly and easily add products as your business grows.
Core dna is what creates an aesthetically appealing website that is also backed by strategy. While to the average user, the full capabilities of the DXP are not visible, its robust backend infrastructure provides your business with an unparalleled advantage. We offer the backend user the ability to effectively manage content, layout, and statistics, whilst increasing ROI, attending to customer requests and ensuring the online strategy is fluid and traceable.
No, Core dna technology is a web-based, cloud-hosted SaaS application. As long as you have an internet connection, you are able to login to your website from anywhere in the world. This approach allows us to constantly update our technology and have it instantaneously passed on to you.
Software as a Service (SaaS) is a way of delivering applications over the Internet through a subscription fee model instead of through traditional on-premises, licensed software models of the past.
Yes, Core dna is privately owned and operated from our offices in Melbourne, Australia, and Boston, USA.
Core dna runs on cloud infrastructure. Cloud infrastructure provides relief from the dependency on physical hardware. It also provides a solution for scalability.
In simple terms, cloud computing is a farm of servers that all contribute to a pool of resources. This is separate from the traditional format of one server sitting on one computer.
The "platform of tools" refers to the different product applications available within Core dna. The Core dna platform includes a range of applications that act as "tools" to make your website work for you and your business.
Core dna is a fully managed SaaS platform, meaning that the network, platform, security, hosting and software are all taken care of, lowering the burden on your IT team and reducing your IT costs.
Reduce your labor costs with pre-built applications and removing backend development, saving you money when you build your site, and in ongoing maintenance.
SaaS platforms are delivered for a fixed monthly subscription cost which allows you to pay for what you need and use. Move to a consumption based model, like Core dna, and away from large capital expenditures.
In SaaS, the user does not pay for the software itself. Instead, it works like a rental. They have the authorization to use it for a period of time and pay for the software that they are using.
A great way to think about SaaS is like going to a public park. You go to the park to enjoy a picnic, play with your dog, have a pickup Frisbee game, etc. You have friends that also use the park. You might use it at the same time, or different times. You get to enjoy the park when you want to and as often as you would like, without having to mow the lawn, water the flowers and maintain the jungle gym. Instead, you pay a fixed amount of taxes per month and for that, the park is available to you anytime. The maintenance is taken care of for you, and local police patrol the area, keeping you and your family safe.
Yes, just as Core dna works for intranets, it works for extranets.
An extranet allows external users (i.e those not within a given company) the ability to access content by entering a username and password. This is achieved by Core dna's secure login application.
Core dna provides users with flexibility by allowing the online solutions to be customized and be relevant to each business' unique requirements.
Enhancements and new features are launched quickly to drive business growth and meet new opportunities.
Software as a Service provides companies numerous benefits. At a high level, SaaS provides companies:
- Pre-built web applications that are completely managed; from the software, hardware, and support.
- Infrastructure that is enterprise, high availability and with support around the clock.
- Continuous updates & innovation so you never have to re-platform again.
- Delivered for a fixed fee per month.
