Our GIS hosting expertise stretches far beyond just running applications in the Cloud.  The strengths of Skygone's platform and staff really shine when customers want to deploy multi-functional, multi-enterprise software projects on Skygone Cloud.  

Our platform's unique ability to treat extremely complex integrated applications, which are using tens or hundreds of servers, as a single manageable object will not only improve your development, maintenance, and upgrade workflows, but will also greatly improve your ability to scale, backup, and geographically load-balance your application across the globe. 

In addition, our Cloud, Private Cloud, and On-Premise Cloud technology makes deploying mission-critical applications more attainable, repeatable, and scalable than ever before.  We have solved many of your complex factors, like hardware procurement, OS licensing/install, and GIS application configurations, that previously prevented speedy deployment of GIS Services and Data to your internal and external customers. 

If you want to deploy resilient GIS applications, burst your infrastructure to cache GIS data more quickly than ever before, and easily maintain your entire GIS operations, as a single object, using the latest infrastructure management and monitoring tools, Skygone is your turnkey solution.
