Professional Services
Carpathia professional services span the entire IT lifecyle -- from design, onboarding, implementation, testing and optimization of infrastructure. Paired with traditional infrastructure services, we also offer a full suite of compliant hosting services designed to help achieve accreditation to your industry’s standards and regulations, including FISMA, DIACAP, HIPAA/HITECH, PCI and SOX.
Design Services: Having designed some of the most complex and leading-edge sites on the internet, our engineering team is uniquely qualified to help design a solution to meet your requirements -- either with Carpathia leading or assisting your own IT services team. This includes both traditional architectures and also “web2.0” architectures taking advantage of bleeding-edge technology and services.
Onboarding: Carpathia has helped hundreds of customers move infrastructure into our secure data centers, either from existing locations or in creating new environments. More extreme moves have included moving federal infrastructure (dozens of racks) over a single weekend, achieving zero unplanned downtime.
Implementation: For smaller projects or those that do not require a physical move, Carpathia’s implementation services allows you to take the load off your IT team by racking and stacking, provisioning operating systems and testing your hosting environment to ensure it’s ready for production. This can range from a single server to environments with hundreds of servers where we create custom build solutions to fully automate provisioning.
Testing: How much traffic can your website handle? What happens if you have a failure in your firewall? What will happen in the case of a disaster? These are questions commonly asked by our new customers. Carpathia can help test key systems and processes to ensure there are no surprises in both capacity and availability of your hosting infrastructure.
Optimization: Just as your car requires a checkup every 3,000 miles, so does your IT infrastructure. Our optimization services evaluate your environment, looking for ways to both increase performance and availability while also saving you money. How will the latest SSD technology help speed up database access? Can you take advantage of virtualization technology to consolidate the number of servers you have? These are just some of the technologies Carpathia can help with to optimize your hosting environment.
