With PLOSSYS 5, SEAL Systems develops the next generation of its output management system. Although it is of course still possible to install PLOSSYS 5 locally, i.e. on premises, the system has been designed from the beginning for operation in the cloud. Instead of a monolithic system, PLOSSYS 5 runs in the cloud as a cluster of microservices that can be started or stopped depending on the current load. The system therefore only uses as many resources as are actually needed. In this blog post, we present what this process looks like in practice - and how flexible your output management system could be in the future.
