Cloud Infrastructure
Data Centers
All Mervis cloud services are hosted in top-tier, certified data centers to ensure reliability and robust IT performance:
- vshosting (Primary location, Czech Republic) – ISO 27001
- Faster (Secondary location, Czech Republic) – ISO 9001 and ISO 27001
- Vodafone – ISO 27001
- OVH (Backup location, France)
We prioritize efficiency and low operational overhead, allowing us to maintain competitive hosting prices for Mervis SCADA and Mervis DB.
Technology
Our infrastructure utilizes a hybrid of Windows and Linux operating systems. The core software applications are developed in-house, which eliminates third-party licensing fees and allows us to fine-tune performance specifically for SCADA and IoT workloads.
Availability
While we do not offer a formal SLA, our historical availability has consistently ranged between 99.5% and 99.95% annually over the last five years.
Backup & Recovery
- Backup Cycle: Data is backed up every 24 hours.
- Redundancy: Backups are stored in two independent locations outside the primary data center.
- Disaster Recovery: We regularly test data recovery procedures and system restoration capabilities to ensure business continuity and infrastructure resilience.
Security & Maintenance
We maintain a strict security posture across our IT infrastructure to protect customer data.
For comprehensive details regarding our regulatory compliance, multi-factor authentication, and NIS2 Directive readiness, please visit our dedicated Security & NIS2 Compliance page.
- Encryption: Mervis SCADA and Mervis DB utilize HTTPS (Let’s Encrypt) for secure communication.
- Legacy Support: Unencrypted channels remain available for legacy BMS and control systems that lack encryption support, though secure connections are strongly recommended.
- Audits & Updates: We perform regular server updates and undergo penetration testing to validate our security architecture against modern threats.
Connectivity
Devices connect to the cloud platform via our proprietary communication infrastructure:
- Mervis Proxy (Standard connection)
- Mervis CloudAccess (High-speed, low-latency solution)
