Switching to Platform.sh can help IT/DevOps organizations drive 219% ROI
Organizations, the ultimate way to manage your users and projectsEfficiently manage higher-ed sites at scale
Your dev team sits at the intersection of daily web operations and the pressing budgetary and enrollment challenges endemic to higher ed. With a single PaaS to manage cloud infrastructure, security, and compliance, you can focus on problem-solving and code—instead of DevOps.

PaaS with flying colors
Through robust hosting services, automated DevOps, and a unified, streamlined workflow, the Platform.sh PaaS eliminates tedious, routine maintenance tasks, speeds application development and deployment, and provides unmatched efficiencies. With Platform.sh, your dev team can make data-driven decisions. And choose the tools/technologies—including an array of frameworks, languages, and services—that best fit every project.
“I feel that Platform.sh was a good selection for the University of Missouri—and a good selection for higher-ed teams who need the same kind of security protections for student and university data. While every team’s workflow is a little different, Platform.sh has the flexibility to accommodate a variety of workflow requirements.”

Hundreds of sites, one flexible foundation
Centralized web operations
Moving from decentralized to centralized web operations can be daunting. But with Platform.sh, you can migrate hundreds of diverse websites and applications to a single platform. Create standards. Then move them all into a standard workflow, build process, and setup, so they can be managed at scale.
Developer flexibility
Through tight integration with external systems and the tools your team already uses (and loves) to build applications, Platform.sh preserves your dev investments. Expand them by choosing the frameworks, and the latest versions of languages and services—like databases, search, and cache tooling—needed to get the job done.
Built-in security and compliance
Rigorous security and compliance standards (including SOC-2, PCI DSS Level 1, GDPR, and HIPAA)—fully automated and managed through the principles of our shared-responsibility model—mitigate the risk of security breaches and cyberattacks. So you can protect student and university data.
Best-in-class application development features
Accelerate development
Automated infrastructure provisioning and your Git-based workflows/tech stack let you quickly build and deploy applications, features, and updates. Fully integrated, automated CI/CD pipelines speed development and release cycles. By integrating with your current code repository, Platform.sh automatically manages production, staging, and development environment lifecycles.
Facilitate collaboration
A single platform for all your applications reduces feedback loops between teams, fosters collaboration, and makes onboarding developers easier. Instantly clone preview environments, creating byte-for-byte copies—including data and services—then share them with stakeholders across campus to accelerate approvals, speed QA, and launch projects on schedule.
Increase reliability
Build applications on a stable, reliable infrastructure, with an up-to 99.99% SLA and a 24x7, globally distributed support team. Daily automated backups for every project simplify securing your environments. When unplanned traffic surges occur, auto-scaling capabilities kick in to detect site timeouts and immediately trigger an upsize.
Gain efficiencies, insights
Select an IaaS platform either by geography (to improve performance/user experience) or cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Microsoft Azure, Orange, or OVHcloud). Then run your exact same code—without making any changes. Analyze application performance with integrated application performance-monitoring tools, and make more-informed decisions, faster.
