Pro Cloud Server
Summary
Within the Sparx Systems Product Suite with Enterprise Architect (modelling) and Prolaborate (collaboration), the Pro Cloud Server is responsible for integration.
It enables users to work together on models, access them online and integrate them with other systems and tools.
The main features of the Pro Cloud Server
Central Repository
With the central repository for Enterprise Architect models, multiple users are able to access and work on them simultaneously.
Web Interface
The web-based interface makes it possible to view, check and interact with model content via a standard web browser.
Scalability
The system scales with the requirements of companies and supports large models, distributed teams and complex projects.
Team collaboration
Version-controlled access to the models facilitates collaboration between team members. In addition, editing, commenting and discussing model elements is possible in real time.
Customising
Flexible adaptability to specific requirements such as
– Configuration of user authorisations
– Definition of workflows
– Extension of functionality through plugins
Security
Robust security features are designed to protect sensitive model information, including role-based access control, encryption, authentication mechanisms and audit trails.
Integration
Pro Cloud Server can be integrated into various tools and platforms that are commonly used in software development and system engineering. This ensures seamless data exchange and interoperability between different systems.
New Features of Pro Cloud Server 6.5
Pro Cloud Server 6.5 improves the security, authentication and administration of Enterprise Architect repositories. At the same time, the new version simplifies operations and helps organisations align their deployments with current enterprise security requirements.
Whether you support a small modelling team or a globally distributed Enterprise Architecture practice, Pro Cloud Server 6.5 provides a more secure and manageable foundation for collaboration, access through Prolaborate and integration with other systems.
As an ISO 27001-certified company, SparxSystems Europe places particular importance on transparent and responsible communication regarding security-related advisories.
We therefore strongly recommend that customers whose Pro Cloud Server instance is accessible from the internet update to the latest version as soon as possible.
