Frequently asked questions:
Cloud-native means building and running applications designed specifically for the cloud. These apps use microservices, containers and orchestration tools to be scalable, resilient, and easy to update. It’s about fully leveraging the cloud—not just hosting software there.
Cloud-native software is not installed on individual company servers but runs via the Internet in a public cloud provided by well-known providers. The advantage: it’s accessible anytime, from anywhere, scales flexibly with demand, and eliminates the need for your own IT infrastructure, saving significant time and money.
Microservices are small, independent components, each of which is designed to perform a specific task. Every component can be updated, fixed, or scaled individually without disrupting the entire system. As a result, our software remains flexible, adaptable and reliable.
Monoliths are big, cumbersome software blocks. Any change requires comprehensive updates to the entire software structure, making them difficult to adapt. Microservices, on the other hand, can be updated or extended individually without jeopardizing the entire system. This reduces risks and increases flexibility.
SaaS stands for Software as a Service — meaning the software is provided as a service via the Internet and is hosted, maintained, and updated by the provider. Users access it through a web browser and typically pay for a usage-based subscription, without needing to run their own infrastructure.
