Infrastructure that supports the business
Stable core.
Room to grow.
Your server environment sits behind critical applications, files, authentication, backups and day-to-day operations. Novicus helps design and support infrastructure that is practical, secure and suited to the way your business works.
Built for availability
Practical configuration, monitoring and maintenance focused on reducing avoidable service interruptions.
Security considered early
Access, updates, protection and backup planning are treated as part of the server design rather than an afterthought.
Flexible infrastructure
Physical, virtual and hybrid options can be shaped around your current environment and scaled as requirements change.
Connected infrastructure
The server room is not an island. It needs to work with your users, network, cloud services, security and backup strategy.
Server solutions
From core services
to virtual infrastructure.
Novicus can assist with the server layer behind everyday business systems, from a single on-site server to more structured virtual or dedicated environments.
Windows servers
Deployment and support for Windows Server environments, business applications, file services and related infrastructure.
Linux servers
Linux server configuration and support for suitable applications, services and business workloads.
Virtualisation
Consolidate compatible workloads into virtual machines to improve flexibility, utilisation and infrastructure management.
Dedicated infrastructure
Dedicated server environments for workloads that require defined resources, control and predictable performance.
Storage & file services
Shared storage, file access and capacity planning designed around business data and the people who need it.
Server backup
Local, cloud or hybrid backup planning and monitoring to help protect important systems and business data.
Server monitoring
Visibility into key server health and service conditions so issues can be identified before they become larger disruptions.
Data-centre support
Practical assistance with hosted and data-centre infrastructure, migrations, changes and ongoing technical support.
How we approach server projects
Plan carefully.
Deploy confidently.
Server changes can affect many parts of the business at once. Our process starts with the workload and dependencies before moving into design, migration and ongoing support.
Understand the environment.
We review users, applications, storage, dependencies, current infrastructure and the business requirement behind the project.
Shape the right architecture.
Physical, virtual, dedicated or hybrid components are planned around performance, resilience, management and budget.
Build and migrate carefully.
Systems are configured, tested and migrated with attention to dependencies, access, downtime and business continuity.
Keep the environment healthy.
Monitoring, maintenance, backup oversight and technical support can continue after deployment as requirements evolve.
Built for business
Reliable infrastructure is not just about hardware. It is about keeping the systems your people depend on available, protected and manageable.
Why Novicus
Server decisions made with the whole environment in mind.
Since 2004, Novicus Systems has supported the technology South African businesses rely on. That wider view matters because server infrastructure connects directly to users, networks, endpoints, cloud services, security, backups and support.
