Bespoke Databases

At the core of many business software applications, a database plays a central role in coordinating functionality and storing mission-critical data.

By combining online and offline elements, along with mobile, desktop, local, and cloud components, we can develop robust customer database software. This allows your employees, managers, customers, and suppliers to access and process live data simultaneously through user-friendly interfaces.

How we can help you

Whether you're a large blue-chip company requiring a comprehensive enterprise database to support multinational locations and facilitate concurrent access and updates by multiple users, or a local retail business that has expanded beyond the limitations of spreadsheets and Access databases, we are here to assist.

Here are just some of the databases that we can create for you:

• remote (cloud) databases
• local databases
• Local databases synchronized/replicated with central database systems.
• Multi-tenanted databases, such as having a distinct database for each "member" in a consortium, while sharing the same user interface, functionality, and business logic.

If you are dealing with a database that is not performing optimally, whether due to subpar software quality, an incomplete software project, or the developer you were collaborating with having moved on, we can assist in fine-tuning it.

All the databases we develop allow for straightforward and rapid real-time reporting and data analysis. This ensures your team can focus on their tasks instead of spending hours extracting meaningful information.

Not sure which database you’ll need?

Rest assured, we are here to assist you. Our goal is to collaborate with you to comprehend your business requirements thoroughly. This includes identifying the users of the database, understanding the tasks they will be performing, determining the frequency of data modifications, assessing available hardware, establishing levels of access, and addressing scalability requirements. Once we have a comprehensive understanding, we will provide our recommendation.

If you already have a specific database in mind, we will carefully inquire and challenge your business assumptions. Our aim is to ensure that you are selecting the most suitable database for your current and future needs, thoroughly validating your choices.

Technology

Geecon has partnered with Microsoft, and as a result, our preferred technology is Microsoft SQL Server. This encompasses the comprehensive utilization of the core Database Engine, Integration, Analysis, and Reporting services. In scenarios involving big data, we incorporate NoSQL database engines like Cosmos DB from Microsoft. Furthermore, we possess the capability to construct Microsoft Azure systems, offering an Azure Database as an excellent option, particularly if you prefer a public cloud solution.

SQL Server is widely acknowledged as the industry standard in the modern era, providing a secure, stable, scalable, and rapid storage and retrieval of data for various scenarios. Additionally, we have the flexibility to collaborate with MySQL and Oracle, if those are preferred choices.

On the frontend, our primary utilization involves browser-based technology, specifically HTML5, served through ASP.NET MVC, and programmed using C#. Moreover, we have expertise in developing WPF desktop and mobile applications.

Security

Our preferred technology, Microsoft SQL Server, has been consistently voted as the most secure database for five consecutive years.¹.

Ensuring the security of your database - including the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your company's most sensitive data, is our top priority. We guarantee that data is stored on mission-critical systems adhering to multiple security standards and is secured against external access.

Industries such as the Government, NHS and healthcare, education, financial services, and insurance, which demand the utmost level of security, have entrusted us with their data.

Data Migration

A significant portion of the systems we develop involves rewriting existing legacy systems. Typically, this entails migrating or transferring data from the old system to the new one. In certain instances, data synchronization between the old and new systems is necessary to facilitate a side-by-side system roll-out. Regardless of the scenario, we possess the experience and expertise to adeptly manage complex data migration processes
