  • Customer-facing dashboards with authentication, alerts, and collaboration features
Key challenges included
  • Maintaining high availability across all systems
  • Ensuring security for device data, customer data, and commercial transactions
  • Managing updates without disrupting active users
  • Scaling infrastructure as device counts and users increase
  • Responding quickly to feature requests and evolving requirements
The business needed operational stability without slowing down innovation.
Managed Cloud Infrastructure
RPR’s cloud infrastructure is actively managed to support performance, reliability, and scalability. This includes
