In the last few years, there has been a dramatic increase in Internet usage following Metcalf's Law. At the same time, there has been an explosive growth in consumers' need for on-line services. As a result, major corporations have had to increase the volume, speed and accuracy of their services. Their internal processes need to be automated and information must be distributed to customers, employees, customers, suppliers and shareholders in real-time and in detail. The huge growth in on-line services is driving the need for very sophisticated means of delivering highly scaleable solutions that can operate seamlessly around the clock.
Toronix has had substantial success as a system integrator providing the following IT services throughout North America. Our services are designed to drive innovation and expansion into new marketplaces while reducing overall costs. Our primary goal is to help position our clients for long-term success.
WebSphere on System z - z/OS and zLinux
WebSphere on z/OS or zLinux takes advantage of System z capacities to provide mission critical applications with improved availability characteristics than other platforms. Toronix provides engineering services related to the design of infrastructure and applications for System z operating systems.
We work with the production engineering services staff at financial institutions as well as their software engineering groups to create high performance solutions that factor out inefficient use of scarce production resources. Typical infrastructure engineering may include some or all of WebSphere Portal Server, WebSphere Process Server, WebSphere Application Server, WebSphere Message Broker and WebSphere MQ potentially engineered across a Sysplex to provide the highest in reliability and guarantee of consistent response and throughput.
We work with software groups using tools to build System z targeted applications including WebSphere Business Modeller, WebSphere Integration Developer and Rational Software Architect.
SOS Services
SOS services consist of problem determination of IT solutions in production, validation of IT solutions before they are put into production, or short efforts in turning around misguided business applications projects. Production related problem determination engagements would typically experience intense pressure to correct the issue. This distress services are available to enterprises on 24-hours' notice. For immediate or SOS situations involving complex system problems and performance issues, customers will have the option of 24-hour on-site assistance.
Application Development and Systems Integration
We help organizations develop a high-level implementation roadmap based on business processes. We start with those processes where B2B and B2C will make the greatest impact. We clearly understand the potential business value of both eCommerce and eBusiness to your business. We will help you initiate and define a solution that is simple but will contribute to your growth faster with greater return on investment (e.g. ROI).
Project Management
We can manage the entire development process or just part of it. We use life-cycle development processes like Rational’s Unified Process, state-of-the-art project management estimation tools, iterative development, and OOA&D with UML to take the guesswork out of your software development projects.
