For a customer we gave a tailor-made two-day advanced training on the object relational mapping framework Hibernate. The topics ranged from configuration and integration into Spring over complex queries using criteria and HQL to performance tuning, caching, and testing.

We analysed the problems of an Asterisk VoIP server at the transition into the ISDN phone net. Next we improved the voice quality on the phones of our customer substantially by reconfiguring the Asterisk VoIP server.

For a customer we analysed the setup of the network infrastructure in its data center. We started with analysing potential misconfigurations in the implementation. For some known problems we were able to find the root cause and to suggest solutions or workarounds. Additionally we evaluated the network with respect to redundancy and performance and gave recommendations for further improvements.

One of our experts set up a distributed replicated block device (DRBD) cluster including Pacemaker/OpenAIS on an evaluation system. This allows realistic testing of the migration of the production environment, a cluster with an existing Java/Tomcat/PostgreSQL web application.

For a customer in the insurance sector we inspected the process and tool chain for developing its mathematical core component. We identified a set of measures to reduce risk and increase efficiency, prepared a cost/benefit analysis, and gave recommendations for further actions.
