The Centralpoint MASTER ENTERPRISE Server is the parent to your entire enteprise. Whether this means a singular portal, or multiple, the Centralpoint master gives you full control to easily deploy and manage your entire enterprise, including the scheduled tasks needed to automate daily maintenance routines.
The Centralpoint server, also referred to as the master server, serves as the hub for your single or multiple portals. This master server can be installed flexibly, whether on-premise within your internal servers or within a cloud environment, including private or hybrid clouds like those provided by Amazon, Google, Microsoft Azure, Rackspace, and others. This setup grants you complete control over your data, which remains housed within your chosen environment.
Centralpoint has the capability to host multiple client portals or sites, showcasing its support for multi-tenancy. Although the Centralpoint master governs each of these client sites or portals through a unified platform, each leverages its own dedicated database and file folder. This segregation effectively maintains the distinctness of data within each site.
The Centralpoint master includes a development portal and a quality control (QC) portal, with one or multiple client sites situated beneath them. It's crucial to note that these client sites are organized hierarchically, giving rise to a unique top-down update process. This process enables updates to be seamlessly deployed across the entire environment, ensuring consistency.
Furthermore, the Centralpoint master offers the ability to synchronize new features from the development stage to the QC stage. This synchronization allows for testing and evaluation within a quality assurance or staging environment. Once these new features pass through the necessary quality control, they can be synchronized downstream to the various client sites hosted on the same server.
This top-down update process streamlines the update procedure, making it effortless and hassle-free. You might wonder, why synchronize updates across all client portals? The answer lies in the fact that new features introduced during development and quality assurance are synchronized to client sites with the default setting of "off." This means that post-synchronization, the feature is disabled on the client site until manually enabled. This approach eliminates the need to manage version history and updates individually across client sites. It empowers you to offer a modular gallery of functions that can benefit other client sites in the future, fostering a service-oriented architecture. Developers can efficiently deploy similar functions across different projects without recoding past efforts.
Centralpoint enjoys frequent remote updates, typically occurring bi-weekly, to introduce new modules, code enhancements, and features. Each update is delivered in a modular manner, allowing you to activate the features that align with your specific needs. This modular approach enables you to maintain a tailored environment while benefiting from updates that support software as a service (SaaS) principles.
Moreover, Centralpoint supports highly secure environments, including those required by entities like the United States federal government and financial institutions. In such cases, the Centralpoint server in the secure environment may not access external updates directly. Instead, updates are downloaded and manually installed, ensuring compliance and security.
To summarize, the Centralpoint master server offers unparalleled flexibility and control. It allows for easy updates and maintenance, while its modular structure ensures that your environment remains aligned with your organization's needs. By adopting Centralpoint, IT service providers and consultants gain a comprehensive platform to swiftly launch robust solutions and effortlessly keep up with evolving demands, all while avoiding version control complications.
