BACKEND
OUR EXPERTISE
BACKEND DEVELOPMENT
We deliver custom backends for simpler and more complex web applications and systems that store, manage and process data served from heterogeneous sources, that let you scale easily when hosted on cloud-based computing services.
BACKEND REFACTORING
Our engineers refurbish existing backends internally without interfering with your app’s frontend components, changing the system in a way that does not alter the external behavior of the code yet improves internal structure and, hence, performance.
MIGRATION TO CLOUD
Octorzo helps migrate backend systems to private, public and hybrid clouds, offering a wide range of cloud computing services, enabling the provision of computing power, storage and access to a suite of elastic services as your business needs them.
COMPLEX SERVICES MADE SIMPLE

API Management
We develop, deploy and manage application programming interfaces in secure and scalable environments both on-premise and in the cloud.

Identity
Our engineers reinforce the protection of sensitive data by implementing user authentication and authorization.

Integration
We enable integration with enterprise systems of any complexity by developing custom communication adaptors or REST/SOAP services.


Messaging Notifications
Octorzo crafts real-time intelligent messaging services, which provide for the delivery of targeted notifications based on user location.

Data Synchronization
We enable synchronization of relative data between devices and backend systems, spiced with server-side rules for data access control.

Data Storage
We store relational data in cloud-based or private distributed database systems, used as storage for large-scale web applications.

TOOLS OF CHOICE
We choose Python when it comes to building custom feature-rich web solutions, taking advantage of its mature libraries, using external packages for time-critical tasks where circumstances so require, and leveraging Python frameworks to draw on their immense ready-made functionality.
We pick .NET for the development of stable, lightweight, interactive and functional web apps that enjoy great integration capacity, or enterprise-level .NET-based systems empowered to achieve global scalability and solve the challenges of today’s heterogeneous computing environment.
We opt for PHP when it comes to optimizing your existing backend layer or setting one up from scratch if your application is in need of efficient data handling with lower response times and server loads. PHP enables us to empower your app with faster, more reliable and secure communication with any storage.
We choose Ruby on Rails to deliver custom backends, effectively enabling your business to strike the market with a higher quality product much faster, riding on its sustainable productivity out of the box, while favoring convention over configuration.
We opt for Java to draw on a well-crafted set of patterns for design and implementation of a variety of integration solutions. We plug together Java and non-Java applications that are custom-built, part of legacy systems, acquired from a 3rd-party vendor, or a combination thereof.

MOBILE BACKEND
On-Premise Data
We build custom mobile apps that consume data from various sources, enabling secure and seamless connection to your on-premise data centers from anywhere in the world.
Single Sign-On
We enable authorization of users with SSO along with authentication tokens or other multifactor security approaches to permit access to cloud and premises-based applications.

Offline Data Sync
Our engineers develop robust apps that remain usable when offline, enabling 24/7 data creation and modification and improving responsiveness by caching data locally.
Notification Broadcasting
We develop massively scalable mobile-push notification engines capable of transmitting personalized push notifications to native and hybrid apps within seconds.

BACKEND IN THE CLOUD








DATA ABOVE THE WATERLINE
We let your application data float by following an API-centric approach, making our custom solutions more modular and extensible. Octorzo enables the client-side part of your app to request resources from a SOAP/REST application programming interfaces by setting up secure, yet powerful communication channels between the web and mobile components of your systems.
SECURITY AND PERORMANCE YOU TRUST
Our backends are equipped with a set of robust security measures that encrypt and securely transport messages between heterogenous components of your apps. When delivered in the cloud, our custom backends also enjoy autoscaling to spin resources up and down based on their actual usage.Security Standards
We use OWASP Backend Security Project as a reference point for comprehending all parts of the security process about backend components that directly communicate with your web app, data source, LDAPs, payment gateway, and more.

Enhanced Performance
We pursue a holistic approach to scalability by ensuring constant capacity planning, and load testing. Our engineers skyrocket server response times by parallelizing processing to ensure that your application takes most of available CPU time.
