What is open platforms?
Open source platforms (open platforms) are a new paradigm shift for government and industry. An open platform is essentially an enterprise-grade, cloud-agnostic hosting platform that’s completely built using open source components. More about open platforms
Salsa’s open source platform services
Salsa has teamed up with open platform experts to enhance and deliver open platforms to our government and non-government clients. Specifically, amazee’s open source platform project (distribution) is a platform built and optimised for Drupal and supports other open source CMSs based on the LAMP/LEMP stack such as Wordpress.
Together with amazee.io, Salsa is at the forefront of delivering and managing enterprise-grade open source hosting platforms to government, following the recent delivery of a fully managed open source hosting platform based on Kubernetes, OpenShift and Lagoon, for Victoria’s Single Digital Presence program led by the Victorian Department of Premier and Cabinet, and the launch of the new GovCMS platform, also based on Lagoon. In addition Salsa is delivering the open source content management system based on Drupal 8.
Salsa’s open platform services cover:
Public cloud — Essentially open source, secure and resilient hosting for your open source project on a shared, managed platform.
Dedicated cluster managed by us — A fully managed, dedicated cluster, setup and configured to meet your specific needs.
Dedicated cluster managed by you — We’ll collaborate with your DevOps team to setup and configure a dedicated cluster for you to manage (with us to optionally provide level 2/3 support if required).
DevOps-aaS — On demand and/or monthly retainers to provide DevOps support ad-hoc and/or structurally as required.
Open platform enhancements — Developing new platform features and/or making improvements to existing features.
Open everything
Open platform is not all Salsa Digital is open to. Salsa’s business model is not about intellectual property (IP), rather we’re focused on delivering projects with the whole stack open source. Our strategy is focused on open everything, OpenX.
