Stop Maintaining Your IAM Infrastructure
When deploying software, an organization is responsible for all of the activities associated with product and infrastructure operations. Below is a sampling of the responsibilities Ping takes care of on behalf of your organization through PingOne Advanced Services.
Product Operation
The set of activities for installing and maintaining a product to meet an organization’s requirements.
- Promotion Pipeline - a structured path for delivering new code and features into production. It begins with development, progresses into testing and staging, and finishes with production.
- Custom Integrations - custom software solutions built for specific use cases. They often enable two or more products to effectively exchange information with one another.
- Base Configurations - the agreed descriptions of the attributes of a product, at a point in time, that serve as a basis for defining change down the road.
- Install / Upgrade - the process for running the latest product version, which allows organizations to take advantage of new features and security enhancements. It often delivers code that runs more effectively, which can save IT resources.
Infrastructure Operation
An enterprise's entire collection of hardware, software, networks, data centers, related equipment and processes used to develop, manage and support information technology services within an organization.
- Disaster Recovery / Backup - a set of tools and procedures that enables the recovery and continuation of vital technology infrastructure and systems during or after a natural or human-induced disaster.
- Scaling - the ability to dynamically autoscale when demand for IT resources increases during peak times or decreases during slower times, for IT resource optimization.
- Monitoring - a system that tracks IT infrastructure performance and health, and notifies administrators where potential issues may occur.
- Networking - a set of rules and configurations designed to protect the integrity, confidentiality and accessibility of computer networks and data, using both software and hardware technologies.
