Model Hosting
whatIf? Technologies provides a hosting service for models running on the whatIf? Modelling Platform.
-
Clients access models from their PC Desktops via the internet.
-
Models are hosted on either dedicated or shared servers located on whatIf? Technologies' premises.
-
Security is assured through the use of virtual private network (VPN) technology.
-
whatIf? Technologies staff performs server management tasks, including the creation and deletion of user accounts, incremental and full backups, recovery of files from backups, and usage monitoring.

whatIf? Technologies analysts may be engaged to update model databases and maintain client models.
The extent to which clients engage our model-hosting and related services is flexible. Some clients opt to be self-sufficient and maintain in-house technical expertise. Others, with limited technical resources, require ongoing assistance for maintenance and data updates, allowing them to focus on core modelling and analysis competencies.
