Whitespace Software, the digital insurance and reinsurance trading platform, has today announced that it has delivered one year of continued 100% uptime to its customers, with no unplanned downtime, thanks to utilising\u00a0Node4\u2019s managed services. With Node4 managing Whitespace\u2019s\u00a0Azure environment<\/a>, the company has been able to provide its customers with consistently secure and uninterrupted services.<\/p>\n

The insurance sector has typically experienced slower progression when it comes to technology and modernisation and has been slow to adapt necessary digital change. Whitespace is leading digitisation within the insurance industry, specifically electronic placing. Because of this commitment to innovation, Whitespace has experienced phenomenal growth, with over 100 companies now using the platform since its launch last year in August. Due to the nature of the content of insurance contracts, Whitespace\u2019s platform requires a higher degree of monitoring, ensuring the system is absolutely safe, and all data is secure.<\/p>\n

Node4\u2019s\u00a0unique set of capabilities<\/a>\u00a0allow Whitespace to benefit from database, public cloud and security experience \u2013 all from a single partner that provides service management and reporting, underpinned by enterprise grade service level agreements. The Node4 services in place are designed to enable scalability in-line with Whitespace\u2019s current market demand and deliver consistent up-time.<\/p>\n

\u201cNode4 is doing an excellent job of ensuring the continued, safe operation of the Whitespace platform,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0commented Marcus Broome, Chief Platform Officer at Whitespace.\u00a0\u201cWe chose Node4 based on the fact it had greater experience with Couchbase compared to competitors and we haven\u2019t been let down. We have full trust in Node4 to deliver us consistent uptime, which in turn enables us to convey business as usual to our customers \u2013 this is essential, especially in today\u2019s \u2018always-on\u2019 digital landscape.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThanks to Node4, we have been able to adopt a\u00a0modern DevOps approach<\/a>\u00a0in Microsoft Azure whilst being able to launch and go-to-market with our new application,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0commented Andrew Sedcole, CEO at Whitespace Software.\u00a0\u201cBeing able to accelerate and modernise our operations in Azure, whilst ensuring that we sustain our high levels of governance and mission critical service availability are our key goals. The N4Stack team at Node4 have supported us through the whole adoption process and we are able to rely on the team for the critical support of the platform. We value the expertise across the Azure, DevOps and data teams and the continual focus on governance improvement to ensure we retain control whilst optimising the platform.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re proud to be working with such an innovative company, especially at a time where they are demonstrating such rapid growth,\u201d<\/em>\u00a0commented Paul Bryce, CCO at Node4.\u00a0\u201cWhitespace\u2019s platform is a modern pioneer in the insurance industry and Node4\u2019s focussed service delivery is well-suited to ensuring the platform\u2019s consistent uptime, reliability and security.<\/em><\/p>\n
