Just as the Internet is more than the World Wide Web,
Sabre offers more than web site development services. Our experience
installing and administering networks, firewalls and servers can help
you onto the Internet. Our talented IT professionals can also provide
development services to help you make full use of the Internet, to
link applications and data at your own or your business partner's
sites (Electronic Data Interchange), or to provide an e-commerce solution
such as a online storefront.
Sabre also has the knowledge and experience to develop an Intranet
to automate your internal operations with groupware, e-mail, and information
portals for sharing Human Resources and other company propriety information
with your employees either through your network or via the Internet.
Intranet & Internet Solutions
With the deployment of high quality Cisco switches, hubs, routers,
firewalls, UNIX, NT/2K and Novell servers, WHT can provide your company
with a complete Intranet network as well as connectivity to the Internet.
What is an Intranet?
An intranet is a private internet where a collection of private
computer networks sit within an organisation, accessible only to
members of the same organisation. It sits behind a firewall so computers
cannot be reached directly from the public Internet network.
What is an Extranet?
An extranet is an extension of an intranet, providing various levels
of accessibility to those outside the private network who are registered
with a valid username and password.
An extranet is accessed over a public network. Information is kept
private on an Extranet through tunnelling and encryption mechanisms.
Extranets are relayed through a Wide Area Network (WAN) which links
a set of computers that may not necessarily be in close proximity
(as opposed to a Local Area Network). This enables mobile users,
telecommuters and users in remote offices to access a corporate
extranet.
Our online networking solution includes:
Website publishing - A document base is shared by the organisation
whereby information is published and stored for online viewing
Workflow enhancements - Using benefits of Internet technologies
to manage information for publishing, reviewing, authoring, editing,
retiring and archiving. This can assist managing the ordering process
and sharing of information and experiences with internal and external
parties across your business
User access - Controlled access to Internet files by chosen users
and groups through a Virtual Private Network
VPN, LAN and Online Networking
A Virtual Private Network (VPN) provides end-users a way to privately
access information on a corporate network (e.g. Intranet) over an
infrastructure such as the Internet. It uses a series of connections
over a Local Area Network (LAN), which is a network of computers
communicating over short distances in an organisation.
Our online networking solution supports and develops collaborative
features such as:
Knowledge base - Aggregates and stores relevant and useful information
about the organisation, clients and staff
Project management - Enables communication between project teams
especially if the teams are not co-located
Group calendaring and messaging - Allows scheduling of upcoming
events, booking of meetings and provides alerts to office personnel
Our customers get the following benefits of online networks:
Greater communication - Effective communication with large groups
and news distribution infrastructure with staff and partners
Increased productivity - Productive collaboration through online
facilities that encourage real-time response and action. This is
visible to others and increases the accountability of outcomes
Better learning and knowledge management - A supporting tool for
training requirements and the collection and sharing of market intelligence
Cost reduction - In travelling to meetings, downtime and accommodation
costs for travel
Centralisation - Of business information and knowledge, providing
a single interface for an online (Intranet or Extranet) community
