Description of service interface
The advantage of the iboss cloud platform is the use of horizontal scaling vs. "larger" gateways. By using horizontal scaling, additional work units (containerized gateways) are added as capacity demands increase. This allows for infinite scale as bandwidth continues into the Terabit era. For each additional containerized gateway that is added automatically to a customer's containerized gateway collection, additional work unit capacity is added for both bandwidth and cloud requests. This increase in capacity is tightly measured as the capacity of each containerized gateway is known. The Containerized Cloud Gateway architecture provides a multi-tenant platform without a shared data plan

Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
Iboss will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Service will have an Availability of 99.9% as measured over each calendar month during the Term. In the event of a Service Level Failure, Customer will be eligible to receive the applicable Service Credit according to the terms set forth in this SLA.
Approach to resilience
The iboss cloud infrastructure is built with High Availability in mind and is native to the Node based architecture. From the ability to have work units automatically expand horizontally to load balancing, the platform is designed for full redundancy and high availability. User deployments are setup to dynamically redirect traffic to the cloud in the closest resource while providing the highest level of performance and availability. If any gateway is out of service, traffic is automatically routed to the other available gateways. iboss also partners with top tier Data Centers that meet SSAE 16 SOC1 and SOC 2 compliance and our Security Analysts monitor the network 24/7 leveraging real time monitoring tools.
Outage reporting
If the client is impacted due to an outage, iboss will push the notification through an email distribution list and the change will be posted on iboss's website. Notifications of any significant outages will occur via email and phone confirmation. Maintenance of the platform is also fully controlled by the customer and can be scheduled or manually instigated to suit the customer maintenance windows.

Fighting climate change

Fighting climate change

Integy are consciously looking to make an impact to fighting climate change.

We do so by:

Working in shared office space within buildings that are working towards net zero greenhouse gas emissions.

Actively reviewing our supply chain to ensure we are working with like minded organisations that have a mission to cut emissions.

Promote the use of walk/ride/share to work.

Utilise electric vehicles where possible.

Collaborative work with our supply chain to deliver additional environmental benefits.

Deliver services that actively enable the use of home working technology.

Reducing waste to landfill through the life of the contract, measured in tonnes.

Covid-19 recovery

Covid-19 recovery

We acknowledge that COVID-19 has changed the goal posts and as a result the way we work has changed. In order to boost the recovery we as a company:

Provide our staff flexibility as standard, with remote working, flexible working hours and various options to ensure that the wellbeing of our team is paramount.

We are making time for downtime, hosting team get togethers outside of the work setting, encouraging a 'lets talk' culture.

We have are involved directly with a number of organisations in the healthcare sector to provide technology solutions that have no boundaries to where care takes place, during the pilot in early 2022 this service provided over 6,000 hours of additional clinical care to our local area (Devon).

Tackling economic inequality

Tackling economic inequality

Our flexible working model allows many of our colleagues to travel at times that are cheaper/less busy. Flexible working also supports colleagues from a wider set socioeconomic groups as it can
help colleagues to balance caring responsibilities, health needs, etc.
A cycle to work scheme is available to all employees, giving access to bicycles and cycling accessories at significantly reduced rates.

Equal opportunity

Equal opportunity

At Integy we hold our values high. We strive to make a positive impact through our work in the public and third sectors.

We also want to create social value more broadly through the economic, environmental, and social impact of our actions. As a growing company, this is something we are looking to get better at and do more of.

Social value has many different definitions. To us it is the positive impact we have on improving outcomes for people in the community through our work with clients and as an employer. We want to add more value for the wider community.

We have partnered with one of our clients, and are in the process of creating an apprenticeship scheme so that college leavers have the option for work placement with us.

Wellbeing

Wellbeing

We are committed to ensuring and promoting wellbeing, as a result we commit to the 6 standard:

Prioritise mental health in the workplace by developing and delivering a systematic programme of activity

Proactively ensure work design and organisational culture drive positive mental health outcomes

Promote an open culture around mental health

Increase organisational confidence and capability

Provide mental health tools and support
