Scalability, flexibility and agility as key factors for competition
As in many other sectors, digitisation is currently considered a mega trend. In the beginning the focus was increasingly on regulatory measures, but today the competition for end customers is usually the focus of attention and drives the digital maturation process of energy suppliers. Without new business models, it will become increasingly difficult for energy companies to win out against purely digital players. This, however, creates the risk of being reduced to a purely infrastructural business with dwindling margins.
It is not electricity and gas that put money in the till these days, but digital solutions in the smart home sector. Added to this is the pressure to automate your own value chain in order to become more efficient. However, automated processes and smart components always cause a massive increase in the amount of data within a company. To manage all of these aspects, the energy sector requires new, scalable and flexible – but above all secure – infrastructures.

Scalability
Whether it is huge mountains of data or new digital workloads – the amount of IT resources required is rapidly increasing, which means that new delivery models are required.

Security
As the operator of critical infrastructures, you have special requirements for the safety and availability of your processes and data. In the pluscloud, you benefit from German locations subject to GDPR data protection rules and highly secure, certified data centres. You are also optimally protected against the downtime of your applications in the pluscloud by optional geo-redundant solutions and cloud-based disaster recovery.
Performance
In the competition for end customers, modern, digital applications are key to a company’s success or failure. With unlimited scalable performance from the pluscloud, you ensure a smooth customer experience. We can also support you with pluscontainer – our Managed Kubernetes offer – if you wish to optimise your development and implement DevOps concepts.
Costs
Instead of investing heavily in new IT solutions, you can simply use resources from the cloud as needed. This also allows you to save on additional staff costs for the operation of new infrastructures. By using the cloud you benefit from reduced costs thanks to things such as standardised processes, efficient resource utilisation and lower error rates.
