Application Retirement for Outmoded Applications

When organizations grow, they reduce IT spend on existing infrastructure either to fund new projects or to make the existing IT budget go farther. The result of which is applications that have been yielding good results for the companies become outdated in course of time when not much attention is given to its maintenance. These applications expend a lot of resources, storage etc while benefiting the organization very little.

Solix Application Retirement helps in doing away with disused applications that are on the verge of it. It reduces the number of applications within the organizations so that more attention can be given on its maintenance. Thus Application Retirement helps in providing retirement to outmoded applications thereby increasing operational efficiency and reducing costs.

Database Security to Secure Data in Non-Production Environments

When organizations share their sensitive data with their developing team, the risk of this data being used for unlawful activities multiplies with each database copy. So this data must be secured before it is copied to a non-production environment and Database Security does just that. It alleviates the concern among consumers, regulators etc about identity theft with its strategies of preventing it.

Solix Secure Test Development has several options for creating database clones. It can create a database template and inserts or restores only the required transactions or modules. As a result the subsequent database will be much smaller thereby reducing risk and storage space.
