our services

Roax stands for efficiency and future-oriented software solutions. We don’t use custom software but tailor modular solutions for each of our customer. Careful testing, monitoring and appropriate integration is standard procedure for every job we do.

Your company can count on the necessary support and training from the beginning until the end of the project. Service is important for us. You will still be able to count on us once the project is up and running.

Since 2009, we've been building scalable, creative and robust solutions for known organisations and companies.

installation & configuration

We can provide help with installation and configurations of different types of setups. Are you in the need for an e-mail server, database, caching solution, file server, multi-tier web setup or a customized setup? We can make it happen. Our toolset consists of tools like MariaDB, MongoDB, Varnish, Nginx, HaProxy, Zimbra, Postfix, ElasticSearch, Redis, RabbitMQ, ...

automatisatie en provisioning

We automate installations to provision your servers in no time. Instead of manually installing and configuring your servers, we automate this using tools like Ansible, Saltstack or Puppet in combination with a kickstart based PXE setup.

performance, optimisation & scalability

Want to speed up your environment? After detecting possible bottlenecks, we can help finetune configuration or propose alternative solutions. Detection can be done through extensive monitoring, debugging logfiles etc. We can add extra layers of caching like Varnish, Memcached to offload databases, applications, storage and more. All in all, performance is an optimisation of multiple layers.


 

debugging

We can assess your software environment. Problems can occur at different levels. This can be the OS, network, application, database, or hardware related. Various tools can provide information to analyze and fix various problems.



datamining

Want to make sense of all your logged data? ElasticSearch, Logstash and Kibana are the perfect combination. Log events coming from different sources to Logstash which can log them to ElasticSearch or other desired destinations like Amazon S3, Hadoop, RabbitMQ for further processing or analysis.


 

virtualisation

Looking to virtualize your environment? Want to build a private or hybrid cloud? Want to efficiently use your resources by moving services to one physical host and save power in the meanwhile? We can help you build this environment by making use of software like KVM, Cloudera, Ovirt, Xen. We can also make use of existing IAAS solutions like Amazon EC2, RackSpace, ... 



monitoring & backups

Everybody needs a monitoring solution, but even more important, a backup solution. Backup your database using XtraBackup, snapshot volumes or just full backups using Bareos or Amanda backup. We implement monitoring using tools like Zabbix, Nagios, Monitorix, Munin, Monit, Icinga, Statsd and Graphite.



high availability & failover

Nobody likes downtime. To keep your applications up and running various solutions exist to help you out. We can help to find the right solution. We can load-balance incoming requests with Haproxy, so failures of one system cause no impact. A redundant setup for your database solution, a HA storage cluster? We’ll be happy to provide you with a solution. You will be able to count on our support and training.
